COMMON ISSUES WITH THE GAME
(as the dev of You.Tapes, there's 2 main issues that is beyond me to optimize or fix due to the engine of the game)
#1 - Black screen issue : this happens because the game is run on a 3rd party backend to host itself as an application because the game is made using javascript that runs on the web, the game is fully webGL so when the screen turns "black" it means your GPU lost the webGL statues, I made a code that constantly tries to pick it back up if lost but only so many times it can do this if your GPU cannot handle the app.
#2 - Intro issue : when the game is loaded you should be greeted be a color welcoming but sometimes when loaded the game can still lose webGL contexts and if fully lost before the loading completes can create a unactive state of the game, no issue here just reload the game by exiting the app "VIA ESC BUTTON" and reload the game
hopefully this clears up any confusions !
