Hi Guys,
I bought the game as it seems to be pretty random, which is good.
Unfortunately I came across a graphical problem: No start-up video, no menu selection, and no “white Infos on the ground”. Furthermore it’S really hard to see coins and keys in the dungeons as they are not shiny.
Graphical problem for sure, as I was able to get into the game by guess-clicking.
PC specs: win 8.1 pro x64, GF gtx765, 16gig ram, 2.8ghz 4th-gen i7.

Installed the newest graphic drivers, all vcpp redistributable packages from 2005 to 2013 in x86 and x64, tried compatibility mode - Nothing worked.
I’m kind of lost. I have no idea what else I can do besides eventually install it on a VM and play it through there – but as you know, that’s not a solution.
Any helpful info you can give me?
Thanks guys.

ROOT CAUSE:
There seem to be compatibility problems with integrated Intel 3xxx $ 4xxx-GPU chips.

We have emailed you to try and sort out the problem. But also, if anyone else knows why this would be happening, by all means let us know.

Should sticky this and/or create a seperate Bug Reports forum under the Steam Community. Many too lazy to send e-mails.

gotta say great game but did notice a bug where some of the loot after the ant boss drops on top of crates and you cannot pick them up

If you trap the ant boss inside the electric trap, should he be taking damage? He didn't in my game, and then I died. I'll try again in a second, but the electric trap didn't seem to do anything, unless I'm missing something. Other than that it's been a great game so far.

Wasn't able to damage the boss with the electric trap, but still managed to get past him. Things I noticed though, the music stopped during the boss fight, since I took a while. And as mentioned in another thread, all coins are only giving me $1, bronze, silver and gold.

on the input screen there needs to be an option to default back to regular set up

Great feedback guys, I am adding these to the list. @TheRoss, we are still not certain whats happening. We have been able to duplicate the error, but have yet to figure out exactly what is causing it. Sorry if it takes a while longer.

looks like the game doesn't like onboard laptop video cards specifically intel hd 3000 and 4000. I can't see anything that has the bloom glowing effect such as the option on the title menu.

Interesting, I am going to look into that first thing tomorrow, you may have just pointed out a crucial part of why some people have been having a problem. Thanks a lot :)

I could still repair armor after having mine break on the dungeon level I was in. Not sure if that's intended, but the repair did nothing even though it cost money.
TheRoss 31 May, 2014 @ 1:25am 
Okay. That was the problem.
Thanks @ Joka!!
As I'm on a Laptop, the game started with my Intel GPU instead of the Nvidia card.
If I force-start the game with my NVidia card, it works.
My Intel GPU is a 4600 model.
"Unfortunatelsy" with the last drivers,s o that should not be the cause.

I just found a problem, if you try to play in window mode and pick 800x600... the screensize does not adapt properly. as in, parts of sentences get cut of, if you hit esc the menu doesnt really fit and such things.
Unsure if its just me, but I often prefer to play in wndow mode to be able to keep an eye on other things as well.

First, the same as SpaceBees, the electric trap did do no damage to the first boss and I think it was supposed to at least. I managed to beat him without it, but having it there working would have been great. Also, I already send a message to you about it as I didn't see this thread before, but there's a sound bug where you open your menu screen with the upgrades and so on where you press spacebar and the sound of the shield starts playing but doesn't stop, neither can you stop the shield from working by pressing the spacebar again. It stops after you leave the menu screen though, but it doesn't seem as intended.
