I can't play this.   The game works perfectly.   I just can't play this alone.  Too spooky!

Developer

I admit, even I got scared while testing the game...

Love the creepy vibe. Everything worked fine. Graphics are great!

Developer

Thank you for sharing your experience. I don't think I explained that there are 50 different anomalies. In future versions, I'll add an indicator showing how many anomalies you've discovered throughout your career.

i didn't get to play it. it starts but never went past a black screen. i left it loading quite a while hoping it was just loading stuff, but didn't really seem to work.
There's this message in the console:
Unable to find the Python binary, the multiprocessing module may not be functional!

I'm sad because this looks amazing judging by the screenshots.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! This is the first version of the game, so there’s still a lot of work to be done. I did some tests on a few friends’ PCs after publishing it and detected similar issues, mostly related to Windows security. However, it seems to depend on each player’s system. Some were able to play without any problems after disabling their antivirus, while others experienced a lot of lag for a 500 MB game.

I didn’t have much time to optimize it, but now I know I need to focus on making the game more playable, because it really is amazing and offers much more than the screenshots show.

I'll try disabling defender and extract again. hopefully it will work

Developer

There’s also a Windows feature called App & browser control that can sometimes block the extraction of the game files as well.

yeah, i had that already turned off.
welp, disabled realtime protection and tried extracting with explorer and then with 7-zip and still the same. sorry :(

Developer

I'm trying to turn the executable into a Windows application, because this engine only exports the game in console mode... That's what causes these security issues.

Developer

I just updated the game. Please check if you can open it now.
