oh no :\ weird because when I went to playtest the patch I just put out with another old laptop of mine the same thing happened, it would just stay on the loading screen and never play properly. Since it has run fine on my main computer and other's perhaps it is then a specs issue? What's your ram? I have 16gb ram but the computer I was testing it on had 8gb. Since I'm a new dev this game is definitely not very well optimized, so it could be the case that its just overloading the ram on startup (even though its such a small game, I have no idea.)
I'm super glad to hear that you enjoyed even the older version of the game though, thank you so much. A game patch for optimization is prioritized to be next, so I will be sure to let you know when that's out!
