Were you going to fix the double solution on the final cave puzzle (part 1)?

Uhm you mean that the puzzle can be solved in two different ways? or something else? if makes things easier for sure will keep as it is, since is a big puzzle.

Yeah, there are two solutions for the puzzle, but the game only allows you to pick one of them and it's pretty frustrating to figure out why it doesn't let you proceed if you came up with the "wrong" one.

OK I see, well for now I'll leave as it is but I can always do an update later

(I need to ask writer whenever I want to change one of those).

I don't really know where to post this, and it isn't something that requires a new thread for. I was browsing through steam today, and noticed that C-14 Dating is amongst the popular new releases! Whereas I think you mentioned that PSCD didn't make it. So, I feel it's more or less confirmed that it really is an art issue.

Weird, I don't see it here! Maybe it was only a few hours, while I was asleep

Anyway yeah, the art was the issue. I am honestly banging my head on a wall thinking that PSCD might have done MUCH better with another art style, since despite it, is still doing OK. Well, live and learn!

Well if you are feeling frisky and risky you could commission an alternate art pack al la Hanako and see if that makes the sales figures more to your liking?

It has been suggested already but now is too late, Hanako did that BEFORE the game release. If I had done that too... but now doesn't make sense. Better to just remember the lesson for future games

That's not quite true, Black Closet was released with only one art set, the second one was commisioned but unfinished at the time. I seem to recall that Hanako said initial sales and reviews suffered a bit because people expected manga-style artwork. As usual, I was confused - I thought the original art style was fantastic.

On Steam, Black Closet was released with both art sets. I remember this because I beta tested it on Steam. Now on Hanako's site, it was initially released with only the one art set.

I know that well because I was one of those telling her "redo the art!!". I wish someone told me the same before I released my game
