I have released a fix for this, it should work now!
In case someone is still experiencing this, please let me know! :)

Thanks!

Jesse, I have been playing for a little while now, and I am really enjoying it, except one thing: I can't seem to move between items in the inventory. In fact, a lot of time, nothing comes up. I hold "I," then use my cursor to click on the arrow, but nothing happens except that the arrow turns red. This is preventing me from moving on, because I can't get back to an item, like the red rose, once I pick up something else, like the riddle map.

Hi jesse!
We translated game into Russian. You can add Cyrillics font? Send a Russian translation in your email jesse@silenceofthesleep.com?

If you could manage to divide the string object which is not unicode from the rest of the game, we would be able to make Cyrillic characters.

Hi,
Since the topic says " ...and other bugs", I thought I could report my issue here.
I haven't had any problems alike with any other games I've played/am playing.
The text within the 'speech bubble' in this game, is pretty much illegible. I've tried changing the resolution(every option from and including, 800x600 to 1680x1050. Unfortunately, it didn't change anything for the better). I've tried to upgrade the drivers but that didn't help either. (I've also tried changing the resolution via the ingame menu but that wasn't it).
The text remains unreadable and therefore, I cannot play the game. :( If you have any ideas/solutions, please inform me. :)

Hi How Rude!

That sounds weird!
What kind of GPU do you have? I'm thinking, that maybe you have some sort of anti-aliasing forced, or something related to that? Can't really say what else could be the cause.

Try checking your GPU panel settings, if you can find anything that could be the cause.

Hi Jesse, thanks for your quick reply. I'm not sure what caused this problem but when I started the game today (no reboot, started the PC from Sleep Mode), I was able to read the text. It's still a bit blurry but readable so I'm sticking with it. Thanks for your help! :)

hi Jesse,
I've been trying to finish the game multiple times (4-5 times by now) and everytime it hangs up after I finish talking with the bartender and the bar vanished after the long dark section & grave cutscene in the last chapter. The rain will keep pouring (plus some occasional lightning), the esc key will still open the menu, but the last speechbubble ("No, wait!") will stay on screen and I'm unable to move or look up/down or do w/e. Any ideas on how to fix this?
I've tried both fullscreen and native resolution. Also got to admit that generally all scripted animations take way longer to complete, like the fade from black to main menu.

Hi zugai!

That is odd! So pressing 'E' does nothing...?

What kind of system do you have? Sounds as if the game does not run smooth 60fps which could potentially cause the problem. (Though I believe some of the people has completed the game regardless!)

If this is the case, could you try one more time, and let it sit there for a while. It is possible that if the framerate is way lower than 60, the event takes a lot longer to trigger. Let it sit there for a few minutes and try if 'E' works after that.

My code with Silence of the Sleep is nothing fancy, there is no deltatime, so if the system can not run the game 60 frames per second some of the events will trigger slower.
This is bad design, but something I only learned with SotS, my first game after all. :)

You are very, very near to the end of the game, I know it's not ideal solution, but if you struggle to finish it could you look the ending from Youtube? There is barely anything playable after that scene so in that sense you would miss nothing. Not ideal though! :(

Also, if your system meets the requirements you can ask Steam for a refund!

I'm very sorry to hear your problems with the game and I'd like to thank you for your patience.

Cheers!

Jesse

Yeah, sadly E does nothing either. I'll try to let it sit and run for a while (I think longest I tried was like 5 minutes) Framerate is approximately between 20 and 30 (some background processes like to mess around in addition). I'm running Vista 32 bit, 4GB RAM, AMD Turion 2X Ultra Dual-Core Mobile ZM-80 2.10GHz (well the laptop is slowly approaching 10 years of age XD) I'll write again if it worked. Thanks for the fast answer!

Hi, I have a problem with the game.
By some reason key for the room 22 disappears from my inventory. (Prologue)
I tried starting a new game, run straight to the door, but got "The door is locked" message.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Hi, i have a problem with black screen when i open the game. How to fix it?

If this is for other bugs too, here's what I've got.

I just downloaded/installed the game the other day, and I go to play it and it doesn't even open.

Here's an image of the crash thingy, for what it may be worth.[img.photobucket.com]

What information do you need from me to make this be at all diagnosable?

That's odd!

Can you tell me your CPU and GPU, also your Windows version.

You could try re-downloading, running as a admin, and trying in a compatibility mode.

Thanks for your patience! :)
