Weird. You're on v13, right?
Was there a blue screen with an error when it crashed or did it just crash to desktop?
Also, are there save files that were autosaved when it crashed? (They'll be called something like CharacterName-error-2020-03-01 13-30-56.sav)

Yep! And went straight to desktop.

No error save files either, sorry. :( Just my save from before it crashed. I'll send that one via email cuz there's no option to attach a text file here.

Edit: I do wanna say though I really like the game!

Thanks, I'll take a look at it.

Let me ask you this, to confirm a suspicion I have:
Have you seen a popup for any achievements received? And if not, can you check out the game stats page and see if there are any achievements it says you've received?

I got a blue screen error when I went to check my achievements. Wild, alright. Here it is:

Error

gamestates/gamestats.lua:163: bad argument #1 to 'sub' (string expected, got boolean)

Traceback

I released a new update that should fix the achievements crashes, anyway.

Messing around with your save file I couldn't get any silent crashes to occur, though. Do you happen to remember what you might have been doing or what might have happened soon before the crashes? Your save file was on level 3, were they any more/less frequent on any of the levels?

I think it only happened once per level, but it did happen every level. The only thing I can think of is I was usually reading longer bits of text on the screen, like the flavor text for monsters.

Thanks for working on this by the way!
