@ WilliamBite: thank you for the information, this should now be corrected with the "HOTFIX_Mission15_BlackScreen" file we’ve uploaded – just add it into your game folder and overwrite the existing "Map071" file. This problem like ones similar to it was simply caused by us not coding in the fade back in command used during map transfers. Sorry about that! Let us know if you find anymore and we’ll fix those too thanks!

@ Maximouh: sorry, was unable to replicate where your black screen bug is occurring after mission 3; but we do believe you – so we’ll continue to look for that to find out where it’s happening and fix it thanks.

Right when starting Mission 4: the Boardroom is all black.

Also: the hotfix to the office screen after the confession still doesn’t work.

Sounds like the issue began before that; that earlier fix only applied to mission 15 onwards, so not sure how you got to that point not being able to see the screen after mission 3 as you said earlier, but clearly this is still a persistent problem we’ll need to thoroughly track down.  

In the meantime: please see the new updated v1_HOTFIX_BlackScreen file upload – this is a universal and cheap temporary fix, but should work regardless of where you are and/or what you’re doing.  

It works by fading back in the screen after 5-seconds of the player character doing nothing, i.e. no movement/button presses etc. That should allow you to continue the game from any point a black screen occurs as the game is still running in the background. Hope this finally helps!  

Updating this in the development blog too as it is persistent amongst players, thanks.

Mission 4 doesn’t even load. The fade to black is gone, but no “sequence” happens. And nothing can be done. Also, the “reveal talk” can be infinitely repeated. 


I don’t know if this is just a me thing. But I also wrong warped to the end of the game, the Sinsmas Bike thing. Idk what happened specifically, it was the board meeting, then talk (glitch), and then I went to the car parking place, then the regular outside and it glitched me there.

Sigh, honestly I just want to play the game but its one thing after another

Sorry you’ve had such a rough start; it wasn’t our intent to release a game that’d become impossible to play properly – it’s not just happening to you.

Having looked into this, doing the choices in certain orders during mission 3 can spiral the game out of control which later impacts everything else; and is why you’ve been bounced around all over the place. That mission was one of the first ones we made at a time when we only first began learning how to make the game and needs vast improving to bring it up to standard to the rest – as this buggy mission is ruining things sadly – but thanks to you telling us about it, we can work on fixing it before everyone gets into the same state.

It remains our intent to get everything fixed properly, so rather than patching with a quick fixes, it’ll need a proper update to prevent this happening again.
