Managing Screen Geometry Warps and Session Resets

Handling Geometry Distortion

Over extended play sessions, Cursed Descent begins warping screen geometry in unpredictable ways. This effect alters how shapes, terrain contours, and distances appear on your screen:

• Maintain Safe Distances: Warped geometry can create optical illusions, making ledges, lava pools, or cliff faces seem further away or closer than they actually are. Avoid walking along narrow edges or bridging over dangerous gaps while geometry warps are active.
• Crouch to Prevent Falls: Keep your sneak key engaged whenever moving near hazards. Even if geometry distortion makes a block surface appear twisted or misaligned, the vanilla collision box remains intact.

Resetting the Escalation Level

Because the visual glitches continuously escalate the longer you play, the graphical environment can eventually reach maximum chaos, creating an extreme survival challenge. If the distortions become completely unplayable or disorienting:

1. Retreat to a safe, fully enclosed area.

2. Open the pause menu and disconnect to the main menu.

3. Rejoining the world or restarting the game session will reset the gradual escalation cycle, returning the shaders to their initial, less intense state so you can rebuild your bearings before the descent begins again.
