FIELD NOTES / KNOWN ISSUES
Known issues: match the symptom first.
For the October 13 PC release, the developer lists driver updates and several specific gameplay workarounds. A locked camera, a failed Caverns return and a GPU crash require different next steps. This is a checked symptom guide, not a claim that one setting fixes every crash.[1]
Officially documented symptom → action
| Symptom | Developer’s documented next step |
|---|---|
| Camera locks after combining a pole swing and Grapple | Exit to the Main Menu and re-enter the game. |
| Not returned after the Caverns boss | Travel Ancient Lair → Abandoned Church, then enter through the window to speak to James. |
| Audio briefly cuts out | Continue through the level; the developer says this should resolve it. |
| Character stuck in terrain | Try jumping free; the developer also lists Surrender to return to the last Lantern. |
These actions come from the launch-day pinned post, checked 16 October. They are tied to those symptoms and are not evidence that a later patch has fixed them.[1]
PC crashes and shutdowns: what is confirmed?
The developer flags RX 7600 system shutdowns, RX 7900 XT GPU crashes and possible Anti-Lag 2 problems. It recommends current AMD/NVIDIA drivers and asks for crash reports with the location of the failure. That acknowledgement does not establish a repair for every affected system.[1]
A 13 October player thread also reports shutdowns on an RX 7600 XT. Do not silently treat that as the exact same model as the official RX 7600 notice. Upscaling suggestions in replies are individual reports, not a fix verified here.[2]
Make the next report useful
- Record platform, GPU/CPU, driver and game version, and whether the game closes or the whole system shuts down.
- Write down the area and repeatable trigger: loading, traversal, a particular ability or a specific encounter.
- If you use mods, record which ones and whether the symptom also occurs without them. Avoid changing several settings together if you want to identify which change mattered.
- Submit the crash report and location through the developer’s Steam discussion ↗ (opens in a new tab). Check that thread and official Steam news ↗ (opens in a new tab) for subsequent updates.
