Shadow Facade WASD Fix & Light Mode & Settings Tips for Performance

Shadow Facade · published 4 Oct 2026, 18:30 UTC · build 25712952

This update adresses the following issues:

  • The optional WASD movement didn't work properly (now fixed)

  • Performance Issues -> introduced a Light Mode launch option

About the Light Mode:

The Light Mode will reduce the texture quality slightly as the game runs, which may help on lower-end devices. This will only be slightly noticable in extreme close-ups.

Performance Tips:

There are several settings that can help if the game runs slow. In the inventory, click the cog icon to access the settings. Here, you can try the following:

  1. Lower the Render Scale to 0.75 to increase the rendering speed

  2. Change the vSync Method to B (=update the game every 2nd monitor refresh) or try the 30 FPS mode

  3. Give the Light Mode launch option a try

Crashes:

To fix crashes, I'd need to reproduce the issue. Ideally, a post with an explanation how the crash happens would be ideal. If it's like something I've read in one of the reviews (crash on startup), this may require some more steps. I may be able to pin-point such issues if you send me the game's log file from this location on your C: drive:

C:\\Users\\[your username]\\AppData\\LocalLow\\Ragtor Stone Games\\Shadow Facade\[/p]This is the directory where the game stores its save files and logs. The log file is called Player.log. To get a good snapshot, run the game, trigger the crash and then upload the file to a free signup-less service like file dot io.

If everything fails and the game doesn't work for you, refund it and try the free and very lightweight version available on my itch.io site (ragtorstone dot itch dot io). It's the same game, but with limit resolution and much less texture data. I can also offer support on the game's forums there, if you'd rather not post in this Steam community. Just mention it's about the Steam version.
