Bugs Thread

[deerdreamstudios]

Hey everyone: still making some fixes to bugs you're all identifying, please put them here so everyone can see if it's fixed or not. Thank you!

[Fethur]

Would like to preface that I love the game. Almost 100% it so far and am having an absolute blast puzzle hunting with some friends! Thanks so much for the great time.

Something I'm curious about is if routing is bugged in some places. For instance:
- With Dimitri in kitchen
- Correctly solve oven
- Game skips scene with Gisela in bed
- Max gives me Dimitri's tie and says something like "never know when a dead man's clothes come in handy".

No one has told my character Dimitri is dead. I spoke with him in the last scene, didn't fail a haunting, and talked to him all the way through him leaving the kitchen (indicated by him shouting down to me about the smell).

I understand in the story that he's dead at this point (Gisela tells you if you DO trigger her scene, which only happens if you fail the oven puzzle). It just feels like a bug that there's no additional dialog or scene indicating the death except for a miss-able scene?
---

Another example:
- Successfully solve the fuse puzzle while Renata is alive
- Next scene with Renata, she will suggest SHE fixed the fuse box, which your character agrees to, as if you'd gotten attacked and failed. There seems to be a missing "Succeeded the fuse box puzzle with Renata" scene that isn't here.

---
These could very well be scenes that just didn't make the final cut, but it feels like there's a MISSING scene because of how they interrupt the story.
---

Other random bugs:
- Tossing land mine into the oven changed me from Renata being alive to Dimitri being alive. Vice versa also worked.
- If you get attacked by the ghost in the closet during the bear trap search, you can't rollback earlier than the attack animation, softlocking you into it
- Going to the well and choosing LEAVE was putting me at the start of the foyer scene where I was dragged to the cellar, allowing me to create an infinite routing loop
- Spamming "check under bed" got me infinite medkits because the dialog loops

I think most of the bugs I ran into have already been mentioned, but the one issue I'm having is not being able to access the Alone ending, even when I start a brand new normal game. Not sure if it's a bug, but I can't avoid getting at least one heart from either Dimitri or Renata (depending on who is still alive) after the Kurt bed scene and first meeting with Baba Yaga. It just gives one to me automatically and there's no way to avoid it, which locks me out of the Alone ending.

This one took me awhile too, but I finally figured it out today. I had to make sure to start a new game, keep Dimitri alove, solve breaker puzzle, and then destroy the green vial when talking to Dimitri and then that heart finally didn't trigger for me!

I mentioned these bugs in a Kickstarter message, but found this thread after:

1: I got stuck in an infinite loop with the witch ending. I would see the scene where she saves you from Kurt, then it reverts to show the normal ending of Kurt crumbling, then after the title it repeats. This means I couldn't continue to new game plus on that save.

2. I was able to pick up the gun from the room (after choosing to leave it instead of take it) an infinite number of times so I had 3 guns in my inventory. My second time through the gun option was gone.

I've done this and I still get an automatic heart even if I destroy the test tube :-/

Exact route I just did, destroying any items I didn't need that wouldn't trigger Witch hearts


- Didn't answer phone
- Go with Renata for fastest dialog . Leave without asking anything. Keep bolt cutter.
- Tell Clover "Absolutely not" (I don't think this matters)
- Destroy the bucket o nails and lie to Gisela
- Go with Dimitri, grab the switch, and fuse from closet
- Solve the fuse box correctly
- Chose Dimitri
- Destroyed candle
- Accepted land mine
- Dimitri offered green test tube. Destroyed it. No heart gained. Left without asking questions.[/spoilers]

Thank you for all of these: there are a few that are intentional, many that are not!

Looking into all of them, but the witch bug has been patched: it will now take you to the unlock screen with NG+, the hints etc.

More to come!

This worked, thanks!

Hi! Loving the game so far and am running through collecting all the endings and I noticed in New Game+ when you talk to Gisella after getting out of bed with Kurt (Having sucessfully solved the fuse box puzzle that is) she will mention that she found us on the floor terrified and asked if it was Rynata's ghost. It also mentions that we did not fix the fusebox even though we passed the puzzle. I am unsure if this is just a mistake where the outcome that was coded in is the one where you are scared to death but I thought I would just give y'all a heads up! Will post again if I find more.

I have gotten the Dimitri spirit basement loop (it only did it twice thank gosh, I was given the earlier basement options [Door on left, Door on right] the first loop)
I also ended up in a 2 time loop of saying I have no more questions for Kurt upon first meeting him.

Hello! I just recently bought the game and when I started it, the CGs are glitched. As in its cut in half with the bottom half skewed to the right. Is this a problem with my end because if so I would like to know as I try to figure out the issue myself.

[deerdreamstudios]

Fixed: infinite guns (in one scenario, working on the hidden one), landmine not working correctly, typos, witch ending loop.
Added: Unique dialogue if you completed the fusebox puzzle.

Thanks for your reports everyone!

HI ! ON my second play through I attempt to do Retinas route and try to get her ending. so I hung out with her as much as possible but for some reason I got Dimitr ending three times ( NOTE i load older saves on my second playthru) when attempting to re-do it, even tho I didn't hangout with him my second run. I had hanged out him on my first run.
