Hello everyone, it's me, Padre! Or what the game page refers to me as, Snowmizzle Studio!
I noticed Dave posted a quick update message in regards to some unfortunate events occurring: game-crashing, incorrection installations, the whole nine yards. Game-crashing incidents are out of my control, sadly, BUT I can most certainly provide a more in-depth, step-by-step process on how to download, extract, and play Around the Clock at Bikini Bottom. The freshly updated guide can be found in the Install Instructions section of the main page.
In other news, I know some people have been running into issues with the tech requirements of the game. Due to this game being created in UE4, and general testing on my own accord, I'm going to put it bluntly: Don't play the game on a laptop, and try to play on a monitor that supports 1920x1080 resolution. It's a surprisingly visually-demanding game, for sure. Unfortunately, Dave may not be able to do a whole lot about that. The game's been optimized to the best of his knowledge.
One final piece of info: yes, I'm aware some sections in the game a nightmare to get through (looking at those Squid Guards and Anglers, they're doing too good of a job!); Additionally, Barg'N-Mart is a bit of a slog. Easy, but slow; we'll look into ensuring Krabs can reach MAXIMUM SPEEEEEEEED- ahem. A patch is in the works, rest assured, folks!
I'll be adding a section to the main page later on that gives these technical recommendations directly. My sincerest apologies to everyone who's running into issues; we'll do what we can! To everyone who is actually playing the game, I'm personally overwhelmed by the sheer positive feedback we've received thus far. Yes, the game is nowhere near clean, or perfect, but it was my passion project that I had to ensure remained spick and span to the best of my ability... from a design standpoint, of course.
