Polytron has opted to re-issue a patch for Fez which can result in players losing save files, because of the high costs of certifying a new update.

Fez has been patched, but you may wish to hold off on the update until new issues can be fixed. According to a official post on the matter, after applying the patch, an issue can occur where save files are corrupted after installing the patch. Polytron said it was “floored that this wasn’t found in testing, but for the moment, deleting your system cache should resolve the issue.” If that fails, there is no known workaround, so until a solution is found, just hold off on the patch.

Oh hey, so you know what’s still going to be patched? Fez. According to developer Polytron, a patch was submitted for certification in early March but was rejected. It took the team quite some time to identify and correct the issues Microsoft raised, but the revised update is back in certification, so we should hear something within the next few weeks.

Thanks, IGM.

Polytron has announced its 2D platformer set in a 3D world, FEZ, has been rated by the ESRB for Xbox Live Arcade. It was rated by PEGI for Europe back in December, but has yet to hit the Aurtalian ratings board, according to Joystiq. In development from Phil Fish and company since 2007, FEZ is slated for an early 2012 release.

I’m in some kind of food coma, ao this gorgeous “screenshot” from Fez – actually a two minute video of zen-like bliss – is exactly what I need. That, and insulin. If you like what you see through the break, you’ll find a few more on developer Polytron’s website. Fez was recently delayed into 2012, and is expected via Xbox Live Arcade. It’s one of those mind-bending indie puzzle platformers, and explores the clash of 2D and 3D space. Adorably.
