Graphical Bugs
Walking on the Ceiling
Sometime (usually starting a few 'levels' in) the game will flip around, your hand and the lantern will remain as if you are normally holding it but the entire game seems as if you are walking upside down on the ceiling.
This bug is caused by outdated graphics cards and updating your drivers will usually fix this.
Lamp lights through walls
Depending on your hardware configuration, you may be able to see the glow of every wall lamp in the level through walls. This bug has appeared in computers that have enabled both Intel HD integrated graphics and a separate AMD or Nvidia card. Either disable Switchable graphics in the BIOS or tell the graphics software to use the High Performance card, and the problem should disappear.
Adjusting in game gamma does nothing
One possible problem here is that you're using something else which is taking control of gamma options, probably fl.ux. Turn it off and the game should let you adjust gamma properly again.
System Requirements
Integrated graphics and very low budget cards might not work
Integrated Intel Graphics not supported
