Issues fixed

The game does not save, or does not sync with Steam Cloud

  • This is caused by the game assuming there is a "Documents" folder on a C: drive, even if no such folder or drive exists on your system; and/or does not have permissions to write to the disk (usually a combination of both).
  • Additionally, if the game is correctly saving to the C: drive, but you've moved your "Documents" folder to somewhere else, Steam Cloud will not work. This can be fixed creating a directory junction, which will transparently redirect the game to the correct folder.
Instructions
  • If you have all the required folders in place, but the game still doesn't save, try running the game as admin.

HDMI monitors: Stuck at 1080p24 / 1080i60

The developers are looking at an official fix[3]
Some users[4] are reporting the game sets the monitor to 1080p24 or 1080i60, but only when enabling fullscreen and selecting 1920x1080 in the game (other resolutions run fine).
Instructions

Issues unresolved

Skip intro videos

The game has a lengthy series of splash screens that are shown whenever the game starts up. So far it has not been discovered how to remove these, but it's possible to speed through them with repeated button presses on the controller.
