Hello everyone,
with this update, Liminal Shift is leaving early access. First of all, thank you so much for your unwavering support from the very beginning! Without you, Liminal Shift would not exist. Now, let's get to the changes, new features, some notes I'll be leaving, and general problems and their solutions.
Autosave has been removed and replaced with a progression system. The game will now secure and save your progress at specific points, and a notification will appear in the bottom right corner when this happens.
You can access the new chapter from the Episode 2 section. Please don't forget to read the notes that appear when you click on Episode 2.
Episode 1 and Episode 2 have been connected to form a loop, which is designed to represent the infinite cycle of Liminal Shift.
Frequently Asked Questions and Answers, and some reminders:
The game is very dark: Yes, some levels are intentionally dark. This was done by design. Look around for a glowing light source, move towards it, and you will reach the light. This enhances the tension and atmosphere. There are no sections in the game where you can get lost in the darkness.
I'm having trouble with the settings: Please remember to press "Apply Settings" in the bottom right after changing your settings.
My game is crashing: If the game crashes while a level is loading, the reason is, 99.9% of the time, insufficient GPU VRAM. A minimum of 6GB of VRAM is recommended. As a solution, do not shift your computer's focus to another window while levels are loading. Close any applications that might be using VRAM. If it crashes between levels, it's because the texture data can't fit into the VRAM. Restarting the game and launching the desired level will solve the problem (lowering the resolution, etc., before starting the level can help as it will reduce the VRAM load).
I can't progress in the Pinkrooms level: You can join our Discord server and ask for help, or get assistance from the gameplay videos that will be uploaded to YouTube. The Pinkrooms is an additional level that includes puzzle elements.
The audio levels are very unbalanced: You can adjust all sounds like footsteps, effects, and ambient sounds separately to your liking from the settings menu.
Don't forget to use the VHS mode in the settings for extra realism and a Found Footage video feel.
