The Crimson Diamond v1.02b Bug Fixes!


Hello, everyone!


First of all, thank you to everyone who's purchased The Crimson Diamond. I hope you're enjoying the game!

Thank you for all your feedback. There were some issues that were impeding player progress that me and the testers decided to focus on, so we could get this update out to you quickly (while there's still some weekend time play -- Though depending on time zone, your mileage may vary).

***Note: this patch is for PC only, the Mac port will follow.***

Read below for patch details (beware of spoilers!). Save games shouldn't be affected by these changes! Please open the Main Menu in-game to check if you're playing the updated version. It should say "Version 1.02b" in the lower left corner.

1) "Look outside" in various rooms of the lodge will no longer crash the game.

2) The Chapter 2 issue to do with revealing clues has been fixed.  [spoiler] In the previous game version, players were sometimes able to dust for fingerprints BEFORE completing their fingerprint kit. This led to confusion about why that action was working inconsistently.  [/spoiler]

3) The Chapter 5 issue with Albert's room has been fixed.  [spoiler] Specifically, the issue where player were getting parser responses relating to the cookie puzzle in Chapter 3, regardless of what was entered in the parser after Chapter 3 was complete. [/spoiler]

Please keep reporting bugs and submitting feedback! You can either do that here on itch.io or at the feedback email: feedback@thecrimsondiamond.com. It's making the game better and better. And thank you to my amazing testers for their dedication and hard work.

Best wishes!

-- Julia

"Savegames shouldn't be affected" means I can continue playing with my save games from 1.0, right (not: "in older savegames the changes won't work")? Just to be sure. ;)

I love the game btw, it was definitely worth the many years of waiting. I will miss the Crimson Gazette though. :(

Yes, the changes/fixes will apply to your savegames, you can continue playing as you were! Thanks so much for your patience and I'm glad you're enjoying it!!

Thank you for your reply Julia. It was a pleasure to follow development over all these years. I wish you all the success you deserve for this wonderful achievement.
