Hi, first time posting on the site.
Just gonna put down my experience first in case some people are having trouble with the installation: downloading the full game on the first page, as of this writing, only gets you a 50 mb avi file and a torrent for the full game, which anyone can find on TPB. After finishing the download, the EXE file didn't work for me, but fortunately the three winRAR files were enough to install. Other than that, the installation was smooth.
Game didn't have bugs or anything when I first played through it. There wasn't any black screen, no glitches, nothing. So I switched over to Full Screen and matched the game's resolution to my computer's. The only issue I had was the first toilet minigame at the beginning, where my "Y" key wasn't working after I held two other keys down. Solution that worked for me was to just release the other two keys while pressing the Y key at the same time.
However, after playing for about three hours, I shut down the game to take a rest and do other things. I came back to it about an hour later, and now I'm encountering the "black screen" problem after the part where you "Press Enter to Start" to enter the main menu. I hear the background music and I can move the mouse cursor, but that's just about it. I have tried the Alt+Enter method countless times. I have also tried the part where you raise the game's priority level to "High" via the Task Manager. I have also tried a method where I changed my computer's resolution to whatever's smaller than the in-game resolution (in hopes of getting the black screen to go away). None of that worked.
I hope you guys have a solution for me. I'm out of ideas. At this point, I'm considering a fresh reinstall, but even if that worked, I don't know if that'll keep the black screen from appearing again. D: I'd really appreciate the help.
Thanks.
