Hello, Linux-friends,
We know that some of you are experiencing an issue where the game starts and all you see is a jet black screen. While you might think this is the game, we assure you it is not. It seems to be an issue with some Linux configurations, especially when prime synchronization is in use. Essentially, a 0x0 resolution is being auto detected for fullscreen mode and being used by the game startup.
It's not a perfect solution but a workaround (until we patch it) is to navigate to:
~/.config/unity3d/Spooky Doorway/The Darkside Detective/
and edit the prefs file to be like this:
010801920
This will set fullscreen mode to false and force a windowed resolution of 1920x1080.
If it doesn't help, it would be awesome if you could forward on your Player.log and prefs files from the above directory to tracey {at} spookydoorway {dot} com
We hope this helps some of you,
The Spooky Doorway Team (but mostly Tracey)
Where cultists crawl, where demons dwell, where the occult… occults? *ahem* That's where you’ll find Detective Francis McQueen, the lead investigator of the criminally underfunded Darkside Division. When evil darkens the doorsteps of Twin Lakes City – hell, even when it just loiters around shop fronts or hangs out in shady alleyways – he’s there, ready to investigate the cases that nobody else will.
He is The Darkside Detective.
The Darkside Detective is a micro-adventure game with a distinct art style and charm. It’s being developed for PC & Mac, and consists of a series of humorous bite-size investigations into the occult and extraordinary. It features:
- 6 cases, each more spooky than the last
- Music from Ben Prunty, the audiomancer behind gems such as FTL and Gravity Ghost
- Cutting edge, high definition pixels
- One free curse-removal, up to and including mid-level witch hexes
