Hey Dreamers!
A big thank you to those of you who submitted videos & stayed in touch to help me troubleshoot & bring you an even better, more stable build!
Fixed issues
- Some of you reported a soft-lock after solving the Bell Puzzle in The Crypt. It's now fixed.
- Some of you reported an issue that involved the head resetting its position in the rotating disk/coin puzzle. It's now fixed.
- Some of you reported issues with wireless controllers. No changes to the input system have been made in a very long time, so this was tricky to troubleshoot. Luckily, thanks to the report by @angelo.scarnata we now know that wireless controllers work as previously if you run Steam client as Admin. I'll do my best to investigate this further, but at least we have a working solution.
On my to-do list
I'm not done improving DARQ. If you notice any more issues, please report them directly to [email protected]. Apart from tweaks & fixes, here's what's on my to-do list:
- Support for more controllers
- Automatic resolution adjustment for systems that are way below our minimum system requirements (DARQ can run beautifully even on very old computers, below our minimum requirements - it just requires adjusting the resolution). I want to automate this process to improve the user experience.
- Linux version! (my promise is to give it my best try - I have no prior experience with Linux. If you're a Linux user and are willing to help out with beta testing, please reach out!).
Thank you all! DARQ comic book & new exciting projects are coming soon!

How is his sanity meter? Did he level up? All of this and more will be answered in this update. ALL CARDS HAVE BEEN SENT I'm happy to say that all cards have been sent today via the USPS First-Class Mail® / First-Class Mail International®. If you live in the U.S., expect yours to arrive within 1–5 Business…Hand-written THANK YOU notes for ALL of you!In my previous update I promised to do something special for you all, given how much support you've shown me. It's not just about the Webby Awards - it's about your support over the years (some of you were following DARQ way before it launched!). I don't mean to be unnecessarily dramatic, but without you, I'd likely be homeless right now (it's just the reality of my particular situation). I had…
