MAC Users: **We are working on getting Apple Developer Certification. Until then, the best solution Itch.io has recommended is to download the itch.io desktop app: and run the game from inside the app. This seems to solve the "this file is corrupted and should be trashed" error some users are getting. Apologies for the inconvenience as we navigate Apple Developer Funland!
itch.io Development Log
Launch em up's!
Date: August 11, 2023
Greetings from Good Graphickateers Central! Videlectrix has just launched Dangeresque: The Roomisode Triungulate, a remaster and expansion of a 15 year old point n' click-em-up that is playable (and payable!) on modern PCs!What better way to enter the modern age of videogamery than by dusting off an old game, dousing it with WD-40, blowing into its cartridge slot until you're blue in the face, and adding advanced graphics and 3D-rendered cutscenes!
Videlectrix has been teaching itself the latest tools and systems and the hope is that this little game is just the beginning.
Steamins!
Date: August 11, 2023
ALERT (UPDATED 8/11 8:22pm) - If you purchased and downloaded the game before 8:22PM Eastern Time U.S. you should re-download before playing again. It contained some leftover Steam-specific scripts that were causing the game to crash. Videlectrix has attempted to remove all of this Steaminess and so far the game is now working properly on our end.Apologies if this causes any loss of save data or game progress.
Please let us know in the comments if you are still experiencing this issue. Steam belongs in saunas and dry cleaners, amiright?! Not viderogames!!
