When I reach the part of the game where the voice in the machine needs the user's help to get admin permission, it seems like everything breaks. It does the rainbow wipe screen transition, and for a moment I can see what I assume to be the key level, but then it does the transition again and puts me on one of the previous message screens (the one about the throat cancer catching up to him, and something about his progeny). After that's done, a mostly white screen (screenshot) appears with music in the background; when I press space dialogue noises happen, but nothing appears on the screen. So far this has happened twice now, and every time I reload the game I have to start back at the last BRKOUT level before all the exposition. Hopefully there's an easy fix, things were just getting good :(

Processor: Intel i5-5200U 2.2 GHz

RAM: 8GB (unsure of what type, i can't find any specification)

OS: Windows 10, 64 bit

Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 5500

Laptop: Dell Inspiron 3558

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for playing!

Unfortunately, this is an issue that occurs with save states in the game, and for some reason this happens to some players. This issue usually only occurs on the Steam version, and can sometimes be fixed by just doing it over and over again. I realize that this is not workable and frustrating. I have looked into this issue many times before and Construct 2 does not offer robust enough debugging tools for me to figure out exactly what is causing this issue. This was my first "big game" and it's likely I made a mistake somewhere, but it's unlikely that I'll be able to find it in time to get an update out soon.

I apologize, please let me know if you do progress eventually, but I also understand if you'd rather drop it.

Side note: I will be pushing an update that will allow people to erase their save shortly. Perhaps the update may solve your issue, but it may only help if you restart :( 
There are some shortcuts in the game though! If you are stuck here then I can take you to the next phase of the game without too much time lost hopefully. Please let me know if you would like to know, as it is a bit of a mechanic spoiler in my opinion.

Thank you for the reply! I think I'll try bruteforcing it a few times; ideally I'd like to experience the game as blind as possible.

hi! I'm having this exact issue (I finish the exposition adventure levels and then just get put right back at the start of the adventure levels); I would actually really appreciate the shortcut to the next part of the game so I can keep playing.

I'm in the same boat, and after several tries am uninclined to continue repeating the same section. Is there any chance you would be willing to help me get to the next section? The game is interesting, but I had to stop after reaching this dead end
