Anodyne Black Launch Screen

[Dark]

I am trying to play Anodyne, but when I launch, I just get a black screen. I am on a Surface Laptop with Windows 10 Pro and DirectX 12 is installed and up to date. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure, but it could be this:

"need to install msvcr100.dll ?

Starting this game stand-alone, it does give you an error box stating that you need msvcr100.dll.

So I installed something that provided msvcr100.dll (this[www.microsoft.com] to be exact). But this only resolved the error message: the game still shows nothing more than a black box.

Okay, turns out you absolutely have to install the 32-bit version of that redistributable. The game works now!

Windows 10, worked fine and controls were smooth on first install for me, nothing extra needed.

This also fixed it for me. :-)

I'm also unable to play. I tried installing the file mentioned above, but still just a black box. It used to work on my old laptop, though. Hopefully can figure it out eventually...

Hi all, if these fixes don't work, you are legally allowed to download the Fan Remake in C#, which is more or less the same with some QoL upgrades and 60 FPS https://pixiecatsupreme.itch.io/anodyne-sharp

Oh wow, that's kinda amazing. Thanks for the help! Anodyne 2 was great too!

Edit: confirmed: fan remake works flawlessly on Steam Deck.

We were wondering why we got a referral from Steam on our itch page 😅
