Feedback + Crash Issue
The game worked great for great for 2 almost 3 runs, it has a great atmosphere and interesting gameplay. Sadly the game started crashing for no discernable reason.
Suggestions:
-Add a way to summon small ghosts/demons the can attack intruders

Same happened to me. Played the game 3-4 times through. Then in the middle of a run it crashed when I chose a new card with the message "The UE-DeckOfHaunts Game has crashed and will close" - "fatal error". After that I can't play the game any longer. Every time I press the "play" button in game, it just crashes again with the same error message.

I found a solution. Deleting the Save-game file called DEBUG.sav inside the folder "DeckOfHaunts"-"SaveGames" (in the steam savegame folder) solves the problem and the game is playable again. So somehow the save-file seems to have been corrupted. Still have a copy of the save file on my computer (if the developers need it).

Edits this post to add that I've happened upon another corrupted save file but with an entirely different scenario: Have a save file that starts the game during the "Buy building cards". After cards have been bought and building phase is ended by chosing the "start the night" button the game crashes from this save (whether or not cards are bought of rooms are placed).

Thank you for the feedback! The fix is taking a bit longer than expected. It's not ideal but in the meantime you can delete your save here:

C:\Users[USER]\AppData\Local\DeckOfHaunts\Saved\SaveGames

and delete the DEBUG.sav file, that should help with getting stuck in crashing

The Update has fixed it for me, thanks for the quick response. Really looking forward to the full release, id wish rooms especially large ones would get some extra function other than big room.

Hi, I downloaded the demo on April 30 and have been running into this exact issue. I saved during the buy build cards phase and then next time I opened it the game would crash whenever I ended the build phase. Is there a fix?

Hi Zechrx, thanks for trying the demo!

We have a lot of new fixes that will be pushed as an update to the demo, and the full game next week (the latter including a boatload of content!). However, I think in this specific case the save file is not usable anymore (And you'll have to reset).
