I tried to play the web version. I got to "Choose a slot" for New Game, chose my gender, and then the screen goes dark and nothing happens.
wow, that's surprising that even after all the updates and improvements, it still causes that issue. i guess my one suggestion is just to try it on mobile soon, since I'm working to get it optimized for mobile. that or find a different pc to run it on? I'm curious what specs your laptop has because if its too old it might just be a hardware issue? the more i know about it the better since i would love to get it working on your laptop if possible.
