Hi everyone!

We've had a very small number of reports by some users on Windows about the game becoming stuck after the splash screens. This will look like a black screen that leaves trails of the cursor. I've been looking into the issue and, with the help of some very patient players over email, have tracked one of the causes of this (and hopefully the only) to vendor audio tool incompatibilities.

For the majority of players with this issue, a reboot has solved the problem, but there are still those of you who can't progress into the game. If you are having this issue, please check to see if your computer has any vendor provided audio tools that are running and disable them. Alienware Audio has known issues with our audio tool, FMOD, as well as a few other similar tools from other computer manufacturers. You can find more information at this Unity forum post which describes the issue in a bit more detail.

Since the issue lies between FMOD and the computer, I am uncertain if this can be fully addressed, though I am currently looking into the ability to continue playing, without audio, as a workaround when FMOD isn't compatible.

Thank you to everyone who has played the game and my apologies who is dealing with this known incompatibility. I'll update here when a workaround is uploaded.
