Video Description:
In this video, I complete Reed's Dungeon, but have to change the format of the video. The audio quality was inconsistent/different levels, and I could barely be heard at times. The result, is adding commentary throughout the video where I also add insight and paraphrase what was said in the original video when it's difficult to hear/decipher.
I encountered a recurring problem where an invisible wall glitch made it difficult or impossible to cross one of the bridges. I replayed the game a dozen times up to that point with only slightly varied results. Upon uninstalling and reinstalling, the invisible wall glitch was there, but there was enough of a gap for me to walk past it. In a new save/load slot I played the game again, and the first attempt at the level there was NO wall. However, upon reloading to the last checkpoint, the invisible wall glitch reappeared in all its glory. I then found that while the second save/load slot was functional, the third save/load slot DID NOT work properly, and only showed the menu animation on a loop without the text visible.
In the end, I decided to just record commentary over my one successful bridge passing to compensate for existing audio problems. (The audio inconsistency is not a game problem, but due to my mic being too quiet.)

Game specific issues active as of the May 11, 2021 update (My personal experience):
- 2 photos in the journal don't work. One is a backpack, next to two support beams? And the other photo is of a bench located outside the room to Pump A. (It's possible I identified the wrong subjects, but I don't think so)
- Invisible wall glitch that varies in severity (Sometimes no invisible wall, one time I had part of an invisible wall blocking the bridge, and every other replay the bridge was completely blocked.)
- Third load slot not functioning properly. It loaded after a minute or two once, but every other attempt to reload resulted in simply watching the menu animation loop over and over again with the menu text hidden. Clicking 'Continue' just continues the animation, and 'Back to Main Menu' brings you back to the main menu with the text. (There is no problem loading the saves in the first and second save slots.) 'Return to Last Checkpoint' does work in all of the save slots, but the bridge is usually glitched.
