Flotsam Not Working?
Most 1.0 reports are quest and interface snags, not a dead launcher. There is no official knowledge base. Send the save and the log to [email protected].
Hotfixes through 1.0.1f7Checked 2026-11-07
Fixes the changelog actually names
The developer’s support address is [email protected], and the studio contact page is pajamallama.be/contact-us/. That address is for the people who made the game. It is not the address of this website. The GOG forum thread that collects official hotfix text is the source for the rows below. I only included lines that name a crash or a stuck quest.
| Version | Symptom | What the note says |
|---|---|---|
| 1.0.0f1 | Radio Technician missing after a tutorial save/load | Fixed; affected saves can continue |
| 1.0.0f1 | Crash with only one drifter left (Lone Wolf) | Fixed |
| 1.0.0f3 | Crash when a drifter salvages past a small boat’s capacity | Fixed |
| 1.0.0f4 | Freeze on a new game in Japanese, Chinese or Korean | Fixed; it was text scaling |
| 1.0.0f10 | Saves that could not load after Architect Mode in 1.0.0f8 | Fixed; missing pontoons are restored on load |
| 1.0.0f11 | Crash loading a town with a huge crop count | Fixed |
Titles on the bug board that are not yet a fix
The Steam bug board, read as titles only on 7 Nov 2026, includes a Tug Life quest stuck on the last step, generators and rotors disappearing, seaweed growers stopping around day 32, bridge snapping offset, walkway length after Architect Mode deletes a bridge, and copy-paste storage that does not start a haul. I do not have a per-thread URL for each title, so I will not pretend I read every reply. An older post about saves dying when you place a drying rack is explicitly about experimental 0.9. I am not applying it to 1.0. Verifying the game files in Steam and updating the GPU driver are ordinary platform steps, not a Flotsam-specific cure I found in a patch note.
Questions
The game says an error occurred while loading.
Check the 1.0.0f10 row if the save passed through Architect Mode on 1.0.0f8. Other load errors need the log sent to the studio.
Where do I report a new bug?
[email protected], with the save and the log. This site cannot patch the game.
