Since this game was made in an older version of UE4, some newer generation CPUs and GPUs may have this strange crashing issue. The quickest solution is to disconnect from your wifi before launching the game and it should run smoothly. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Somehow your save file must've gotten corrupted. I've seen this happen to a few people who only just fresh installed the game and I've no idea how it happens. But if you go to your Appdata\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames folder and delete the .sav file, next time you boot up the game it should create a fresh save file and solve the issue. If you don't know how to get to your appdata folder, type %appdata% in your search bar and it should pop up.
I've seen a few people run into this. It has to do with newer graphics cards having some sort of issue with games that use older versions of UE4. There is a permanent solution out there, but I forgot what it is. The easiest but temporary solution is to disable your internet on your PC before launching the game, and apparently that fixes the issue. Tho you'll have to do that every time you launch the game.

The game force closing like that is due to a weird confliction with newer graphics cards having an issue with games made in older versions of UE4. There is a permanent solution out there, but I don't know it. The temporary solution I always give to people tho, is to disable your internet on your PC before launching the game and that seems to fix it, but you have to do that everytime you decide to launch the game.

One potential fix is disabling the internet and launching the game. Seems to be an issue with certain graphics cards with older UE4 games and apparently doing this fixes it. If that doesn't help, are you using Windows 11? If so, UE4 games don't seem to be 100% compatible with Windows 11 yet so sometimes there can be issues like game crashes and such. Hope this helps!
Your save file might've gotten corrupted when your PC crashed. Go into your Appdata\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames folder and delete the .sav file. After relaunching the game, it should create a fresh save file and fix the issue. You'll unfortunately lose your game progress, but the game should function normally again.
Finally got around to trying out this alpha. I enjoyed it a ton!
Felt like I was playing through something I would've made back then. The cutscene for Dracula was a nice touch, giving him more of a spotlight and character development throughout the game's story. Loved the sound design and music for the original floors, and I gotta say, the puzzles like the A,B,C orb one was very clever.
Excited to see what you do for the next alpha build, this has been a treat to play through.
Been very busy on two separate large projects as of late! Vex Clock which can be wishlisted on Steam, and Dave.EXE, which is currently in early access over on my Patreon and will eventually land on early access on Steam once I feel like it's in a presentable enough state. I haven't had much time to work on smaller, free games in a long time (I've got busy life now!) so people probably won't be seeing much over here on Itchio too often. I hope you and many others will look forward to my future Steam releases!
From what I've heard, on rare occasions Windows 11 seems to have compatibility issues with Unreal Engine games at the moment. One solution that's helped some folks with crashing issues is turning off your internet on your PC and then launching the game. If that doesn't work, I'm afraid I don't know what could be causing the game to crash, other than compatibility issues with Windows 11. D:
It's possible your save file might've gotten corrupted. Go into your Appdata\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames folder and delete the .sav file. After relaunching the game, it should create a fresh save file and hopefully fix the issue. You will unfortunately lose your progress if you had any, so if you want to back up your save file first before deleting in case this fix doesn't work, you can do so. But the game should function properly now after deleting your save manually and starting a newgame.
Not quite sure why that's happening. Do you happen to have the Oculus app (for the Oculus VR if you have one) installed on your PC? I heard it sometimes causes black screen issues for some users, so you could try uninstalling it and see if the game works. If not, try disconnecting from your internet before you launch the game and see if it works. If none of the above works, I'm afraid I don't know what else could be the issue, sorry!
That is very odd. After downloading the game and only unzipping the .rar (no need to compress it to a zip), it should just be a simple folder with the application and everything inside. Something on your PC must be reading it as a Microsoft Edge File for it to be doing that. Not sure what the cause could be. Sorry!

Did you unzip the .rar folder? If you haven't already done so, you'll need Winrar or 7Zip or any unzipping program to unzip the .rar folder. After doing so, you should be able to launch the application normally. If you did already unzip it and the game is just simply not launching after double clicking the application, then I'm not sure what the problem could be if there isn't any sort of error message appearing.
I don't believe I've ever announced a version 2.0 for Werthit, but if you're just simply requesting for an update, then I'm afraid that's not something I plan on doing anytime soon. I'm pretty happy with it at the moment and I've got my hands full with other projects in development, such as Vex Clock, so it just isn't feasible to be updating this game any further, sorry!
