Do any other controllers work for this game? Tried my Xbox Series X controller and that doesn't work. :( Keyboard is OK... maybe I'll try another, my other controller is a Interact Axis pad from 2003 (I'm not joking, still works great).

Yeah, got this issue as well, on Windows 10 Home 22H2/ESU for me. Only thing to do for now is temporarily disable real time protection before playing QUOD.

Last thing... play it offline to be safe.

Got to dig a bit to get this to be playable. Make sure you can see hidden items in File Explorer, then go to:

C:\Users\YourAccount\AppData\Roaming\itch\apps\frieda\Frieda_1.2\Frieda\Saved\Config\Windows

Copy the file GameUserSettings.ini to the Desktop. Rename this to something like GameUserSettings-OrigBak.ini. Place this back in the folder I pointed out here.

Open the original GameUserSettings.ini file with Notepad or other light text editor. This is where you can change the graphics settings for Frieda. This is my version of the file. I changed everything in [ScalabilityGroups], and set all Resolutions to 1280x720. I capped frame rate to 30 fps.

I'm running a laptop from 2018 that has a 8th Gen Intel i7-8750H CPU, Nvidia GTX 1050 GPU w 4 GB VRAM, m.2 SSD and 32 GB System RAM. It's on Windows 11 25H2. I have the latest drivers loaded for the 1050 (on security updates now since last Nov 2025). 

Everything runs smoothly for me. Good luck!

Hi! Would love to try this on my Moto phone, but I can't install it. The phone is a G Power 2024 5G, on Android 15. 

(Otherwise I'll try this on my Windows 11 PC later... and maybe on a tablet that's on Android 14. :) )

Managed to run this in Wine/Linux, on a 13 year old laptop! OK, impressive specs aside, felt really cool to travel through something that would have run on a Tandy 1000HX. (Yeah, I'm that old.) lol... love the atmosphere.  

Will this game run on a PC that has a Nvidia GTX 1050 GPU? The CPU is a 8th Gen i7 8750H.

Love it, retro vibe and all. 

That's how it's designed to be. No lag from my end. Played the game with integrated graphics (UHD 630 with Intel 8th Gen i7 CPU). No Windows Enable or any other boost required for me, other than the CPU hitting 4.1 GHz while I'm playing. :) 

Thank you for creating this intriguing work of video game art! Read the article via Google Translate, that's also worth a look.

Were you able to find a fix?

My guess is that your OS is missing parts of FMOD that should enable you to run the game. Better to run it in a native Linux install instead of the Linux layer in Chrome OS.

OK, thanks for mentioning. :)

Is this game online only, or is it possible to play offline with a bot?

Oops, haven't updated this story yet. OK to grab the latest update without loading previous ones?

This is a fun game! Any way to remap the movement buttons for the keyboard? I'd prefer to use the arrow keys.

I understand. Its not totally unplayable for me. I'll try to uninstall some apps I don't use anymore. That usually helps. Thanks for the reply. :)

Is there any way to reduce the graphic quality on Android? Playing the game on a Samsung A12 from late 2021. It doesn't have the best 3D accelerator. I don't mind if the graphics look slightly blocky, I just want more FPS. 

That mess mostly affects bigger companies and publishers that create and release the AAA titles, not indie devs. Wish Unity explained that clearly in the first place when they outlined the new license pricing terms!

What device are you running it on? I've got it working on a Samsung Galaxy A12/Android 12, 64 bit.

Finally... thanks for making a 64 bit Android update! Much appreciated! I don't mind starting over. :)

The only Android device I can play this on is a amazon Fire tablet from 2017. That runs on their modded version of Lollipop 5.1.1, 32 bit. I might be able to run it on a really old version of Android x86 ... but I'll stick to my tablet for my game fix.

Works fine for me on my laptop. It's a low poly game on Unity, so it should run on a lot of PC's.

I ran it on Linux, Ubuntu Studio 22.04.2 LTS. Nvidia GTX 1050 GPU/Intel i7-8750H CPU/32 GB DDR4 RAM. m.2 SSD. Latest Nvidia 535 drivers. If the 'untested' version works for me, and you have similar or better specs, you should be OK. If your PC is spec'd slightly below what I use, like a 900 series Nvidia GPU, it should run well enough.

Try it. If you're a bit tired, let the PC do the driving. :) 

IKR? The only device I can run Aurelia on is a amazon fire hd 10 tablet from 2017, running on their modified version of Android 5.1.1. Maybe if I pull out my older LG tribute phone that runs KitKat... Oh wait I can't, still with stuff in storage (long ass story)!

Were you able to download the game? I just finished playing it! 

Oh wait... it's been a while since I've experienced the story. I want to install it in Linux. Will I get the Ren'Py or Unity version if I download now? I don't really mind either platform.

If you can, please send a download link to i.love.tazzus@gmail.com at your earliest convenience. It's rather cold and rainy in my neighborhood as I type this. I think your little experiment might smash my dour mood. I'd appreciate it, thank you Mr Moshe Linke.

Awesome, Mr Melabo! I'll check it out ASAP from Steam! 

NVM got it

How do I get mouselook to work here? I feel as if I'm running around in old school DOOM.

That really worked for you? I grabbed the DXVK dll's from doitsujin's github. Nvidia 450.66 drivers and latest Vulkan SDK with runtime. I run Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS. Maybe I'll try again, but it didn't work for me the first time. 

Hopefully my final comment on the matter LOL...

I did get it to run in Ubuntu + wine staging + DXVK, but the cars were nonexistent. However I was able to partially drive on the darkened road until I slid and constantly kept bumping on the trees... had to hit Ctrl+esc so I could Xkill the game.

My guess, probably needs DX12... was worth a try though. 

NVM... just tried it on my i7/GTX 1050 PC in Ubuntu. Doesn't work... will have to boot to Win10Pro.

Try wine staging + DXVK. DXVK has support for Windows apps, up to DirectX11. DXVK converts DX9/10/11 calls to Vulkan. Also make sure your Mesa GL drivers are up to date. :)

That should work, at least you have a fine CPU there. Maybe not on high settings but you should be able to run on at least medium (but not 1080).

Depends. What's the dedicated GPU your PC is loaded with? As far as I know most Unreal Engine 4 games work on Nvidia GPUs as early as Geforce 7 (e.g., 770). If you're stuck with Intel integrated graphics, you're out of luck. :/ 

Is it Pawesome or Pawrfect? I can't tell.
