Game keeps crashing please help

Alr so whenever I try saving my game (auto save), the game crashes before saving the current progress, so am basically stuck on the same day. I thought it was maybe just a corrupt save file so I tried a new file but then the game doesn't even start, it's just stuck on a black screen right after I finish naming all the characters. PLEASE HELP

It’s really rare for that to happen, and while I’m not 100% sure it will work, I recommend this:

First, open AppData (Win + R), type ‘appdata’, and press Enter. image.png

Navigate to the LocalLow folder until you find the ‘Arvus Games’ folder. Delete all the files in that folder. This will delete your saved games (which, if the game crashes at the beginning, will result in no progress), as well as any corrupted files. image.png

That should be enough, and when you start a new game, everything should be fine. But if it isn’t, you can try running the game as administrator to avoid any potential conflicts. Let’s hope it works.

Thanks for the reply, what I noticed is that the save file in my case wasn't corrupted, it was happening to my every save file, ALSO the issue got fixed SOMEHOW, the game starts working after a few minutes of crashing lol

Haha, it all seems very strange

idk what it is but screen sometimes just freezes randomly, I just leave it for a few seconds or a minute and it starts working again (it's not my pc cause only the game freezes the pc is still working

Maybe your PC doesn’t have the best specs, or maybe your resolution is set too high. xD. If it freezes again, try pressing F1 repeatedly; that unfreezes the game and the UI that sometimes lags.

ryzen 7 3700x, gtx 1660ti, 16 gigs of ram, I think it should be more than sufficient to run a pixel game 😭😭
