I'm getting a black screen at the very start with sounds in the backgrounds.

I pressed every button, but cant solve this issue.

Developer

Hmm. I'm not sure why that might be, immediately.  I'll see if I can figure out why that might be the case or if others also have the same issue.


Thanks for checking it out! 🙏

I'm afraid I get the same problem as as well.  As soon as it loads I get a frozen image (like maybe a blurry plank of wood up close?), a short bit of voice over, and then the music keeps playing but the screen is frozen.  : (

The voice over and music both sound very professional though!

Developer

Would you mind sharing with me if you're you using the Oculus App or Steam VR when you try to run this?

Ha ha, sorry - I noticed after posting that it said 'VR' in the description, but I wasn't totally sure if VR equipment was required or just the optimum way to experience it.  I was just running it on a laptop without any VR equipment - so I think we may have solved the mystery of why it didn't work.  Apologies if this was just a false alarm!

No worries at all. That's a big relief, haha.
I'll include support for vr and non-vr going forward. If not this game, then the next one.

Thanks for giving it a try in any case.
