Don't Want To Play Gamichicoth again?

If you don't want to get to the end of Gamichicoth again, there's a hack to get around it:

Go into your Left-Hand Path directory, edit the .json file with your current character name, and change the "headlevel" to "Samael/Samael"

If you're not confident doing that I'm happy to update your save file for you - send me an email at info@strangecompany.org with your json file if you'd like me to do that.

Bugs?

We're still in Early Access, so it's possible you'll encounter some bugs. Please let me know if you do! On very low-end systems near minimum spec, I'm aware of one performance bug related to unusually long play times. If you find your system starting to lag badly, get yourself killed or restart Left-Hand Path once you hit a Screaming Head. That will completely reset the lag. I'm looking into this bug actively, and please do let me know if it affects you. And that's it! Please do let me know what you think, and enjoy your trip through Samael and Xanadu. If you'd like to discuss the game with other players, feel free to jump on the Steam forums, or I've started a discussion of the latest patch over on Reddit's /r/vive subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Vive/comments/6k0lt9/lefthand_path_070_released_5hr_more_playtime_2/
