Ps4 and mobile version
So there is one bug that happened on my ps4 to my only saved slot. I saved my game then exited the game and turned my ps4 off. When I came back and turned my ps4 back on to play again but it said chapter 3 even though I got through a few parts on chapter 4 and it says find a new exit while I’m on level nine. So I call for the elevator and walk inside of the elevator and I try to click one of the levels to see what part I was supposed to be on and it does nothing, it doesn’t even show the buttons glowing yellow when I look at the buttons to press on a level to go to. For now it hasn’t happened on my phone yet, I really hopes that it doesn’t happen on my phone too. Can you please fix that bug. Also on chapter 1 on my iPhone when I got to the part where I finished putting the items where they go and turn on the machine, I walked out and a bendy cutout was supposed to pop up when I left the room but it didn’t, it only happened on my ps4. Can you please fix these bugs. I would really appreciate it if you fixed these bugs so I can continue playing where I left off with on the corrupted slot and not be stuck not able to do anything on chapter 3 on floor 9. Thanks!

Amazing but buggy even after update.
January 2017: A few crashes but the biggest glitch was near the end of ch 5 and I quit for an hour. When I returned, I was no longer in the machine where I had been, but was in the hallway after leaving Tom and Alice on the bank. Problem is that the door is closed and the lever down so there is no way back inside. I cannot complete the game without starting the entire chapter over again. I started over, lost all progress, and the same thing happened. So, do not stop after starting ch 5 or you’ll have to start from the beginning. I started over AGAIN and this time got to the machine but after knocking out two ink columns, I died but when I was revived,I was still in the room but the ink monster was stuck running in a corner. Nothing could coax it out so it is another glitch. Geez. Please offer more chapters!! First, fix the bugs!! February 2019: The door was suddenly open so I broke two ink spouts, but two were left and it allowed me to exit the room and end the game. Huh? Glad I could finish somehow but wasn’t worth the frustration with bugs. That said, I do hope the devs offer more chapters (minus the glitches). Devs, please make more chapters. Love This game.

Great game but one bad problem and request for next game and bug
I love this game so much it is worth the money to get this 10/10 recommended but there is one problem with it the glitches it’s just so laggy (especially when I fight ink figures) and even the game crashed this is a problem mostly with Sammy and the roller coaster thingy my point is. The game is super difficult with the lag I died 4 times by the swollen ones 3 times to the butcher gang. 2 times to bendy. 1 time to the projectionist. 5 times to Sammy and once to the final boss. I also tried to try all quality’s and nothing worked pls update the game chapter 3 has the tommy gun and I know it’s possible to get it but the lag just makes it difficult you have to mold ink into the ink machine choose the demon path and don’t die once. I heard it’s the best weapon in the game and people said that it can kill the projectionist in 2 seconds flat actual time please fix this bug but other than that this game is awesome and I rate it 5 stars please fix the bug Edit: please put bendy and the dark revival on mobile when it comes out. I imagine that there is gonna be a remastered version and I really want to see the original. Also can you put all (almost all is okay) the other characters in it cause I really want to see the characters in it. Including Linda from the Henry recording. Please put the characters in it even though on Twitter you said this was no sequel. Thanks for the game even at all thnx. Not my decision but you can put nothing i asked on it. Edit:2 I am having a problem with getting the secret boss in chapter 3 you have to make a Boris mold. And take the angel root but I think I am missing something I still am able to get to the levers but I cannot pull them please fix.
