I’m so sorry you’re having trouble playing. I’ll look into seeing what might cause that. The only other thing is making sure you have the current version of the game (in the main menu hold the tab key to see the build number in the lower left corner, it should be 2.0). I’m not sure if you gave a donation but you’re welcome to refund it until the game is in a playable state for you! I’ll try to get a fix out soon!

This is the first time anyone’s mentioned this kind of error, are you on Windows or macOS? You can maybe try hitting alt+tab (cmd+tab for macOS) and make sure you have the game as the in-focus window.

It's the middle of the night and you need some water.

Dying of Thirst is a low-fi horror game about a topic that every kid dreads: wandering alone at night time. After waking up, you realize you already drank all your water before falling asleep. The only thing left to do is brave the trek to the kitchen to fill the cup again, one drop at a time. Did you hear something, though?

Through the course of the night you will:

• Interact with objects to progress the narrative
• Come face to face with a mysterious creature that stalks the night
• Try not to be too scared

Thank you for letting me know! I’ll see if I can get that tested and fixed (I use Windows primarily). So sorry.
