A few more words about the softlock situation
Okay, uhm. I'm kinda desperate and I have no idea what to do. So, since TIODM fandom on this site is quite active and lively, I came here again to clarify some things about wgat happened and ask for advice
As I said in the first part, me and my friend were in a discord call together and we were playing TIODM (which means, I was playing and streaming for her, and we were talking a lot). And I solved Mr Dile puzzle, got the key and opened the first door to the manor
And there it was. The first puzzle with shapes. I actually got no issues with it during my first try and solved it pretty easily, BUT. When we got to the next area (the one with that poor tortured creature with many limbs and pink hair), my stupid brain though "Hey, maybe we need to bring the shapes from the previous puzzle here so we can solve this one!"
.....And I did it. And as soon as I took them out, the path closed again. I thought "OH, SHIT, I WASN'T RIGHT ABOUT THIS- Well, okay, maybe if I'll put them back, it'll open again?"
..............Guess what didn't happen after I've put them back, huh.
Me and my friend panicked a little bit, but we decided that it's okay and we can probably try placing shapes back again. It didn't help at all.
Then we reloaded the safe and tried again. It didn't work. Then we closed the game and opened it and tried again. It didn't work. Then we started the new game. It didn't work. Then my friend and I said goodbye and ended the call. After this, I reinstalled the game, and I tried again.
And I've got the same outcome as before.
I thought "Well, okay, I'm probably just tired, I need to sleep. I'll go figure it out tomorrow"
In tge morning I saw that there was a patch to the game, and I was very happy about it. I naively thought that maybe my issue was somehow fixed alongside the stuff that was fixed in it
I reinstalled the game again.
And when I finally got time to play the game and started it anew.... I found out that reinstalling didn't work 😭
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welp, that's kinda all that I have to say....
Please, if any of you have ideas how to fix it, share them to me, tgat would mean a lot
P.S.: I tried to search if anyone had the same issue as me, but I couldn't find it anywhere. I may actually be the first to experience it
P.P.S.: My friend also sent an email to developers, explaining the problem. We're hoping that they'll notice it eventually, bbbut it didn't happen yet
