Hello! Thank you for all for support through the release of 1.0! We're sorry it was a little rocky.
We wanted to make a post about all known bugs and how to mitigate them until we can get them fixed (target time is within the next week). The bugs will be ordered loosely in terms of severity.
Choice UI Not Displaying with Uncapped FPS In Some Cases
Sometimes choice buttons and menu items will not display if framerate is uncapped. In particular, the difficulty selector when you first start the game and the entrance to Exodus.
Mitigation
If you run into this issue, please play the game with fps capped to 60 for now.
Save Point Before Final Boss (Ch. 9) Sometimes Not Working Properly
Sometimes the save point just before the final boss will result in a save that will block you from moving after loading.
Mitigation
Try saving a couple of times at this save point (in different save slots). Do not overwrite your previous ch. 8 save(s) in case the save fails and you need to go back to it.
Using old Saves (From Early Access) May Block Progression
If you attempt to a resume a save generated by the Early Access version of the game (after beating ch. 6 specifically) you may not be able to progress to chap. 7.
Mitigation
There's no fix for this other than starting a new game or using a different save. We highly recommend starting a new game anyway (since there is new content and if you start mid-game with an old save, you will not be properly leveled, since old versions of the game did not have the leveling system or skill points).
Boss at the End of Chapter 1 Can Hit You During Cutscene
After defeating the boss at the end of chap. 1, she can still hit you when the cutscene is starting.
Mitigation
All you can do for now is be careful when you defeat her and try to keep high health. We're definitely going to fix this asap.
Performing a Finisher with Amelia outside of Magical Girl Mode does no Damage
As it says in the title, performing a finisher as Amelia in gunslinger mode will do no damage.
Mitigation
Don't use finishers when in gunslinger mode.
Chests are not Behaving as Expected with Auto Save in Chapter 1
If you die before finishing chapter 1, when you respawn the chests cannot be opened again, meaning you lose the items.
Mitigation
Don't die! But to be serious, no good mitigation of this yet. We'll fix it as soon as we can.
Game Not Working on Some Linux Installs
We've had reports of the game crashing on some Linux installs.
Mitigation
A user reported that using Proton 8.0.5 to launch the game fixed the issue.
