Regarding Steam, are you using it strictly for distribution, or were you able to integrate Steamworks features?

(bump) I am still curious about this.

Sorry, just for distribution. We use the 3rd party key system in Steam to send out keys for access to Heroenginegames. We have asked about getting some authentication to Steam to verify purchases to take out the 3rd party key thing, but it works for now.

Thanks, good to know.

I downloaded the Steamworks API and looked over the documentation a bit. It's pretty daunting, though I can imagine one might be able to use the HSEI as a connection to the scripts, and from those external function(s) make calls to the Steam API.  But my DLL skills are a bit rusty to make sense of it all right now.

When will this be available on steam again?

They're aiming for the 26th of this month at the latest

The most recent update on the repop forums regarding this:

Backer Portal still hasn't been fully transitioned from ABT to us, this means that we cannot verify 100% of the accounts and backer status, we are working as hard as possible to make sure everyone who has purchased the game has access, but some people have been put on hold and this is the reason. We want to make sure all supporters have access to the game before opening the gates.
MAJOR NOTE: We will not be able to re-open sales until this has been fully transitioned. We hope to still be on track for this week, but this transition really does need to finish.

The game is back up for sale on Steam! We have a few bumps in the road, but were able to get it up and live sales today! It is official. Hero Stand alone will be coming shortly.
