HypersomniacLive: Thanks for the update, I've turned the file into a nice proper spreadsheet which helped me spot some odd entries, like the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta and Epsilon DLC. Any idea what those are about? Placeholders?
Sample entries, I guess, like "Test Game B 2", "Test game (Galaxy downloads)", "Galaxy SDK tests game" or "UE4 Galaxy Test Game". The usual GOGbears fooling around with the APIs.

It's all in the goggles really, but Eye also play a role :P.
Your data is safe with GOG...

I'd backup my installers if I were you... you know, just in case.

What exactly are we looking at?
A corrupted screenshot that somehow is still used on the game in question's store page?

This has happened before with other titles too, so nothing really out of the ordinary.

The banner images for the news somehow get messed up as well now and then. A more recent example being the No Man's Sky / The Surge collage, which still gets re-used for sale announcements or when there is another of the content updates to No Man's Sky.

Yes.

True. We sometimes get corrupted patches and installers as well. Just because it happens doesn't mean we should get used to it, because it really should be out of the ordinary...

Yes, it would be interesting to know how exactly the files get corrupted. Looking at the JPEG file you linked earlier, it seems at first glance to likely be some random bit insertion or deletion in the ninth macroblock line corrupting the rest of the file, however jpeginfo tells me that the file is not corrupt, so the error existed earlier than at upload (of course they could have uploaded a slightly corrupt image which was further compressed automatically with disregard to this corruption, thus generating a valid file).

Psst, a little recalibration of those goggles might be in order?

I've replied in the thread you've linked. No, not really, since the products API does not return them :). So they're not in the list, but... I have other lists. Let's just leave it at that.

Other lists.... hmm.... colour me curious.

*checks the AF thread*

Was hoping for something more... juicy.

Cheers for helping out.

Here's the latest ID list. I'll do roughly monthly updates from now on, but in case you explicitly need some info sooner, just let me know.

Do your birds happen to have a library ID for "KnightShift"?

blotunga: game id........ 1339150860
Yeah, that's the one. The birds didn't chirp anything on this occasion, but I do own the game, so I can confirm it's the right ID. The products API is silent as well for some reason, as is the case with the Warlords series.

The birds will be notified. Thanks, blotunga!
