I'm sorry for the bug. There wasn't any bug report on Colin so I'm trying to figure out what has caused the bug. Does the bug occur repeatedly? Was it before or after you had the first meal?
yup. tried again, before the first meal; game still crashes and screen turns black
The game was about to display Colin's character portrait when it crashed.
I also ran it from the itch io desktop app, if that helps.
EDIT: The third time i tried, I could succesfully talk to Colin. Not sure how to reproduce
