Hi. I just checked on my own Chrome installation: It is working as intended. Very strange that your firefox installation also doesn't work. I would check the following:

1. You're launching the HTML by double-clicking on it from the unzipped folder

2. You've checked your browsers settings: (Firefox) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-problems-images-not-show (Chrome): https://www.makeuseof.com/fix-google-chrome-not-loading-images/

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this issue locally on Firefox or Chrome. This is a very strange issue that I haven't seen before in the past 3 years of game development. This suggests that the issue is something in your settings / preferences / security options in the browsers. Or the way the HTML is launched.

If you've checked the above browser settings, and it still isn't working, can check the console logs of the page? In firefox: First open the html. Then press Ctrl + Shift + J (in Windows) or Cmd + Shift + J (in Mac). Then refresh the html by pressing F5 or Ctrl + R. Does the console output mention anything about images / png files not loading properly?

When I checked the html, this is what its showing, and when I hover over the status column where it says "(failed)" the entire thing says (Failed) net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND (This is for Chrome, which had also just updated)

Which operating system are you using?

This error suggests that the html is launch from a location that is not the unzipped location of the game. (the html will look for a relative path for the images, so launching from any other place will cause loading errors).

Version 0.4.0 with Chapter 5 is now release, and a standalone application package exists. If you are using Windows or Mac,  you can use these standalone packages with a built-in browser that runs the game, so that you don't have to rely on your own browser. Let me know if this fixes your issue.

I'm using Windows, and I keep unzipping the file then opening the html link that would make it run in Chrome. So I'm not sure if there's something I'm doing wrong, or what. I'll try it with the new update and hopefully that will fix whatever issues may be occurring. If it does, I will edit this comment! So it looks like the built-in launcher works perfectly and the images are showing up as they should!

Fantastic! Could you edit your first message here, by adding as the first line: "Edit: Issue is solved!" ? This way players don't have to feel intimidated that Taru's Infernal Pledge is a buggy mess :)

Sorry for the late reply. I'd be happy to!
