Thanks for the detailed analysis. I have a 144Hz monitor and everything works fine though, but I've seen that sometimes there is a chance for bugs. It might be completely random, but I'm not sure.
Yeah I am not sure what's going on, but since I changed to 60Hz on my monitor (so it caps) and game's VSYNC ON (so the game will never get past 60FPS) - everything went smooth without ANY bugs no matter how many times I played. The moment I changed back to 144Hz and VSYNC OFF (so game can go past 144FPS) - I noticed the bugs coming back right off the start.
The most frustrating part was the ending. You don't get teleported inside the stranger's room, you're still outside talking to no one, the dialog still continues. When you're asked to grab the pen nothing happens, you're softlocked and you cannot do anything besides restarting the whole game once again.
If the actions are based on the animations' last frames (like the fade out) - that might be an issue. The GPU and/or the higher the FPS of the game (monitor >60Hz and VSYNC OFF), the more chances it may jump over just one singular frame of the game, that's all it takes for the game to not register that ending.
My idea would be check the player's camera position (XYZ) at the end to see where does it actually land on - even though it might go inside the room, something has to interfere with it and teleport it right back outside in a split second.
That's my take on it, hopefully it helps you in a way or another and figure what's the actual issue behind it. Wishing you all the best!! ❤️
Hey, sorry I couldn't write in time. I see you've already updated the game so I'm not sure if sending you the video with bugs from the old version is useful anymore 🙃
I did play the updated version and everything seems to be good now! I finished the game without encountering the issues I've mentioned previously. I tested the menu buttons and the delivery place (going in and out) and all is good! The ending was also triggered right off the bat with no weird teleportation problems.
Glad to see it fixed now and I'm looking forward more games! Best of luck! ❤️
Hey no problem! I'm happy you finally sorted it out and it runs smoothly now! And don't worry about it, it's a good thing you posted the game on itch io and so many people play it as they can point out if anything is unusual about it. Regardless of how many times you tested it as a developer, you may never know what a player would randomly do in your game that you would never think of; think outside the box. Many bugs arrise even on triple A games much later after the release date, so you can never know. Keep doing your best and you'll improve day by day. Best of luck! ❤️
