Thanks for the clarification on the link from the email!  You may have been clear and I haven't looked at it since I initially received it and did my download.  I'll get the update.

It appears as if it was the guardpost that provoked the Keeper to go there and mill around.  Nothing else showed up.  I have deleted both guardposts but he's the only one that stuck in his general area.  I saved the game and have just re-loaded it.  He's still wandering back and forth in that spot.  Let me know if you want me to try anything with the game save – unless I get impatient and start a new one. =)

I thought there was only the one kind of storage.  I now see there are three types, the default is for everything.  Duh.  My bad.  You had this covered.

Thanks!

Two things:

1) Yes, anti-virus/anti-malware programs can hinder the proper operation of an executable, dll, etc as it's their inherent function.  All they have to do is suspect one is a possible threat and bang.

2) ANY program can affect another if it's poorly written.  If you have something with a memory leak, etc. it could very easily be affecting another running program's memory, interrupt, DMA, etc. access.  It's basically out of control.  And it may not be noticed by other programs because they aren't using those resources affected by the 'bad code'.

Stripping the startup of a PC to bare bones is a common way to sort out conflicts.

And it could be a lousy mouse, soundcard, and/or graphics driver, easily.

The normal culprits are drivers and AV/AM programs.  Check your audio and video drivers as well as your antivirus and any anti-malware you may be running.  Worst case, disable AV and AM while you play a game.  Just remember to turn them back on when you're finished!

If you've not done it in a while, it's a good time to check all your drivers with your PC vendor or PC components vendors.

Don't be afraid to run a full AV scan and a full AM (anti-malware) scan.  Check your browsers for junk add-ons, too.

Beginning to sound like a conflict with something else running on the PC.

Thanks and keep up the great work!

NO rush at all.  I was just wondering if I was missing something. Is there a list of such things somewhere I've not yet uncovered?

Thanks for quick replies and a VERY engaging game!

Wait.  Let me guess.  All I need to do is use the mouse?  ::)

I've been trying to use the arrow keys. LOL

Interesting.  Thanks!

Ah, cool, OK!  Is there any way other than your character turning red to know your current health status?

Thanks!  Love it!
