Issues fixed

Crashing at start

Instructions

Cage cursor option not working

There seems to be an issue with Cage cursor option, where the game is not locking mouse cursor to the game window/screen on multi-monitor system each time player changes location.
Instructions

Blurred image

The game does not support anti-aliasing, forcing AA via drivers will cause undesirably strong image blur.
Instructions

No ultra wide screen resolution on Linux

Some Linux distributions have reported that they can't set ultra widescreen resolutions (21:9) in the options menu.

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/291650/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (291650) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
