No i was playing on normal and went all the way from the first save point to the cheat tape to the big blue door with the open set area and the giant bird and there was no checkpoint :(

Hmmm, that sounds like something unintended happened. Would you mind messaging with me on Discord a bit? I'd like to get that figured out so it doesn't happen to other people as well.

I unfortunately do not have discord (im too old) but I can respond here. I dont know why its giving me this issue but its not saving any rooms. but when I die and go back to the cheat tape it is already collected so its recognizing that but not saving door to door. I think this game would benefit a lot from a easy mode with infinite saves and more health, it is a very difficult game and could be a turn off for a lot of people because it loses its fun when it becomes frusturating due to lack of accessibility options.

Understood, and I'll definitely take that feedback into account. Would you be able to send your save file directory to my email? I can take a look and let you know if something wrong happened.

Im sorry I have been trying but am really illiterate when it comes to pc, I just died again after 20 min and the only option is to reload a save and I checked and i am on normal. I think I may refund it until you add an easy mode if you end up doing so. Its a great concept and a cool game its just very unfriendly (pun intended) to the player. I think you did a great job with the world and story and graphics tho! The save system is just terrible

I appreciate it! I'll look into an easy mode right immediately. If I added that in, would you maybe consider changing your review? Unfortunately negatives can really hurt a game this early on, so I would like to try to find some resolution for ya. :P

Go ahead and refund, btw. When I address the easy mode thing, I'll send you a key free of charge. :)

Absolutely the game seems amazing but the save system is unfriendly and it cuts off a casual audience, with the game having sections of 20+ minutes without saving and dying and having to redo everything its hard to recommend. If the game was more user friendly I with its saves then I would definitely recommend. Also it can take up to 10 bullets to knock an enemy down and I havent had more than 20 ammo at a time so it makes it difficult to get past puppets. I understand having to use the wrench but the time to kill with it is insane, I counted almost 10 swings on some enemies all while being pushed down over and over again with barely any health. I know its survival horror but I think an easy mode with more of a chance of surviving and not having to redo massive amount of time would be a great addition. I am a fan of this game and want it to succeed! Thanks for taking the time to get back to me

Sure thing! Really am just here to make everyone's experience as good as I can. :) I'm working on the difficulty right now and should actually have something to show for it by the end of the evening.

Thank you for being so understanding!

No worries even if you did the fact that you care enough to respond is enough to justify a positive review. Wishing you the best with the game and Ill recommend it to my friends! :)

Update - have implemented a difficulty but will need to wait on the translators to translate its text before I can put it in the game. Will update the game as soon as I get that text back, but exactly when that'll be depends on how quickly they're able to get to it.
