the same problem
Yeah, find a new game to play, as nice as this game is, it's a buggy mess you'll never be able to play through without the Dev's save games.
The entire game has been tested and can be played through just fine. This looks like a bug from a pre-release version. I recommend downloading the version on my patreon site at
The dog quest issue has been fixed in the latest release. Many of the other issues you've mentioned are new to me. The only other issue still pending has to do with animations not playing and I'm still searching for a solution to that since I have never been able to replicate it. I'm working on some programming fixes on the way the animations play that I think might help as I believe it is a memory/caching issue. The hint system is bare bones, which I'm aware of. I may go back some time and rework it. Until then, however, most people get through it just fine with the walkthrough. I am always open to fixing bugs if you find them. Just DM me the details (build, operating system, detailed description of problem, etc).Hate to say it, but I'm right there with NightHacker on this one.
The game does have a few bugs in it that, if certain things do not happen in a certain order and within the times they are meant to be done, will bug entire quest lines.
The entire stray dog quest line bugs out and won't be able to do it at all if certain events don't happen early enough, in the right order, and not too many times
The subway bug that crashes the game has been a pain
The quest with going to the book store glitches out and won't trigger allot of times, had to load a save to even get to it
Progressing the story in the office got stuck and couldn't get to the scene where the CEO lady made your boss have sex with you, had to load a save to get to it
The scene where douchebag went to investigate you glitches out in 2 different spots, the meeting with the guy at night to talk about the amulet and then the scene where he goes to the church and speaks with the brother and finds out about the cult
The bar where your husband goes to work and you were supposed to investigate the strip club glitched out, it was always closed and he was always home, had to load a save for that
Dixon glitched out many times, his shop would always be open but never talk to you at all, just spin around, happen same time as the investigating the strip club scene
I know there are more bugs, but honestly I don't remember them all since I've played about 50 games since I've touched this.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the game (the grind part always sucks in every game), but many people would disagree with it plays just fine.
It has numerous bugs, I believe most are timing issues, but it is still worth playing as long as you except the fact that like any game still in development it will have issues from time to time.
I had the same issue, and they kept telling me that i used an old save even though i have started a completely new save on the 0.8 version.I started a new game. Everything went great until yesterday I save my progress like normal, then today I get this error. Is it fixable? Or do I need to start a new playthrough? View attachment 1729323
All of this is great to hear. When you say in the latest release, if you're talking about the 0.80 public here, this is the only version I've ever played and all the issues I've described were during these playthroughs.The dog quest issue has been fixed in the latest release.

Were you using old saves?All of this is great to hear. When you say in the latest release, if you're talking about the 0.80 public here, this is the only version I've ever played and all the issues I've described were during these playthroughs.
As a point I just looked up the date of me downloading it and I can see I was wrong. I downloaded the game 2 days prior to 0.8 and the download file was 0.78. I'll redownload and check those again to be fair since I was playing an older version, even if I didn't realize it, it was my mistake.Were you using old saves?
