Had a very sudden crash on my first playthrough breaking the wooden boards. The big guy honestly surprised me too! Nice and atmospheric.

This was a great experience! The gameplay was solid, the action felt really rewarding! The enemies were creepy and cool, specially the hands were super interesting! I loved that they pointed at you! Those little details add a lot to the game! Great sound design, great ambience, great game! 

Thanks for this fun entry!

Updated both Windows & Linux builds at 25 October 2024 7:37AM GMT to fix a critical issue. The game crashed completely or had very slow load time on lower end hardware & had high RAM usage while clicking Play. This was due to a baked lightmap being loaded which isn't actually needed.

The only change made in the updated builds is that the lightmap node was "disabled" by simply deleting the baked lightmap file. This fixes the game's load times and removes the high RAM usage which was causing crashes.

A version with a fix for a game breaking issue was uploaded a few hours after the deadline as a puzzle's given solution was wrong due to two numbers being the wrong way around. No other changes other than that one string. I checked with Luke first to make sure that's okay.
