I've tried to play this game earlier and got somewhat 7-10 FPS. I thought ok, fine, this game is looks beautiful (but not optimised at all), but ok. Then I've bought a new video card and run on Windows... What I've got was a beautiful black screen and no way to play at all. I checked the internet, people tell many wierd things and no help at all… before I looked into logs. They told that mp4 is used and I have to install Windows Media Player. All other games use webm format, which doesn't require WMP to be installed (I have Windows N). What to do? I could extract unity assets, reformat to webm and pack back, but… it's a developer work, not mine. I wonder also why other games optimised well enough to have at least 20-30 FPS (even Quern!) on i7700K internal video card. 20 FPS makes game playable, at least. Videos on YouTube shows nothing extraordinary to have this requirements. I don't believe that they included any extra enchantments to graphics for Nvidia 1080+. I really regret I've bought this game. May be, if developers fix the issue with the black screen, I be able at least to play it.
I bought this game because I liked artistic styles, genre, puzzles and story. All of them seem to be very interesting… and they are. Nevertheless, when I tried to play it I found a lot of issues which might to be fixed in a future but completely stopped me to play this game in early stages. I'll list issues I encountered and possible ways to fix them. I hope developers will roll out the update with fixes as they are crucial for many players as I've saw walkthroughs and reviews afterwards. Steam version has the same issues and some of them fixed by steam midlayer (a controller issue). * Controller buttons are not processed correctly (long B). I have to use keyboard with a pretty wierd mapping layout and inability to remap keys, It could be fixed by more testing and giving a user ability to remap layout without Steam API. * I can't run from the standing state. Other games allow this and in this game I have to remember it constantly which is not a good idea. Probably, this is a correct way to handle it, but there's too many short platforms and you'll die or repeat jumping to the same platform just because of this issue. It's frustrating. * Edge borders of surfaces are too exact to handle jumping easily. It's not a bad idea to be exact with edges, and you'll see it on many platformers as well. The difference is on other platformers /visual/ edges are the same as real edges. When you jump to the edge, you know if you land the surface or not. In this game you never sure about this. Every single edge is different and you have to memorize them. This also leads to misjumps and unobvious positions. it's very frustrating. * Unobvious ressurection positions on death. I didn't know where checkpoints are, I have to save often, to be sure where and on which state I'll be resurrected. it's mega-frustrating. I hope developers will refine this game and players will enjoy their playthrough. Developer responses are welcome
This is a half of the original game and I experienced desynchronization between voice and visuals all the time including movies.
