Spoiler below!

In the prison, down the hole underneath the bed where you collect the chisel, the ladder doesn't seem to be working, either up or down so I'm basically 'stuck' there.

You need to make sure you move the bed completely out of the way or else the bed will block you from getting out.

Good custom story with some nice scares. The first person torture scenes were brilliant. I liked that the knight statues provided a new twist for the shadow chase. It was great that all needed items were to be found rather close together, avoiding endlessly running around to find certain items. The voice volume is too low though.

Just wanted to comment that I really enjoyed this custom story, I played it about a month ago. It'd be in my top 10 that I've played, for sure.

I think I startled my roommate with the amount of times I screamed and nearly flew out of my computer chair. There is a glitch I noticed though, maybe it's just me.

Not sure if that's a bug or not, but I'm anxious to play the rest. This is bloody amazing!

Sometimes that happens if the bed collides with the ladder in even the smallest amount. Unfortunately, I've tried to fix this, but there's only so much one can do. Best thing to do is restart the level. There should be an autosave at least from when you stated the level. Hope this helps. I'm glad you're enjoying it so far!

Aside from bed I also experienced other problems:

-I could not get the gate in the prison to open when using the Hammer/chipper now matter what

-I can jump over the invisible walls leading to the lab which can get you stuck.

^Same video as above^

-After reading the statues note in the storage room, if you leave before getting the key in the room on the other side of the note room the door will reappear upon reentering thus you get stuck also.

Just goes to show that no matter how much play testing you do, there will always still be glitches.

The bed and ladder glitch continues to plague me. I've tried several ways to fix it, but in the end it still happens to some players. Rest assured there will be NO beds anywhere near any ladders is part 2.



Not sure why the hammer/chipper combo didn't work. I've just come to accept the fact that sometimes these glitches just happen to players even tho all the coding is correct.

As for the storage room glitch, this is simply an oversight on my part. Not sure why that dumb door re spawns when you leave.

But all in all, thanks for pointing out the glitches. Again this was my first attempt at making a custom story, and the mere fact that anything worked at all was a miracle to me ha ha ha.
