Yes. Problem is caused by a broken resource file.
For a quick fix you can download the demo version and replace the graphics.zip.
New version (we work with a new version of the compiler) will be released as soon as we get rid of the last remaining glitches.
We just released version 5.0.0.
Has been a while.
Thanks for your pacience.
We finally found time to release to desura. Have fun with the new release.
We are still working on the new version. The new compiler gives us some unexpected new problems.
Good news is that we can support asian languages now as well and a chinese version is being worked on.
I fear its a bug that you found. We have 2 algorythms that create the labyrinth so one of them created that wrong dungeon. We saw that sometimes during our testgames and tried to solve this problem. But it seems it appears a lot less likely but still exists in some situations. You could send me the savegame that I can see what algo was used so we can try to solve it again. Try to jump down pittaps or use shafts to get to the next level. If nothings working at all just get your score into the highscore. You should be close to first place in level 120 :)
Maybe that happens when 2 setting files are different. Sometimes in between versions we add new setting options what leads to a newly created settings file. It should not but one never knows :D
We are only doing some small bugfixing for this version. At the same time we started to rewrite the game allover. New version will work over the internet so that players can enter the dungeon together. But this is a huge pile of work so do not expect that version to be released anytime soon.
Please try this solution:

(You can also check if the option for saving cpu cycles is turned on, maybe that has influece on your mouse behaviour)
The Desura version is the extended one. On our website its still $10.
The promotion here is for one month.
Its the version 4.8.1 on both sites. I have to find out why on the right side it still says 4.7.1 :)
Seems I forgot the book. But all other french corrections should be in place :)
Just tried it and yes staff crafting is broken agin. I tried that yesterday and it worked. So another bugfix must have broken it again :(
Murphys law is not only a theory :D
We know that the windowed mode in linux is not really working good.
the only way to release the keyboard is by minimizing the game window. you can do so by moving the mouse from below the window to the window elements and minimize it.
We are sorry for that.
Next version is as good as done. First 4 tuturials are finished to make the start of new players easier. Some translations for them are still missing. And we fixed all bugs the players reported.
They both use the same spell. Therefore the effect does not add up.
Finally all three Lost Labyrinth programmers bought a copy of Dungeon of Dredmore. We just love it :D
Tried it. Identify spell seems to be broken.
Will be fixed for next version.
Thanks for reporting.
Thanks to your support of Lost Labyrinth we decided to remove the Ads from our Homepage.
Special thanks to everybody that supports us!
You guys are great!
The thread on the laby homepage on that problem:

Had to upload again as the Desura Client for Linux has a small error. This time it worked and hopefully all laby fans are happy now :)
I guess you are using the new 4.8.0? This version features a new switch under options called "CPU Cycle Saving". Please try if it changes anything if you turn that off.
Maybe there are still some missing parts of the translation. As laby is constantly growing you will maybe encounter some english parts somewhere. But french seems to be pretty complete. Let us know if not.
There is close to no old code left anymore. We improve laby constantly. Thanks for your support.
Hopefully you die with most combinations in the first 20 minutes. If not maybe we have to make the game more difficult? :DDD
We already found a better font. Did not make it for the 4.8.0 release. But expect it for the next one.
Uploading the new version 4.8.0 today took me the whole day. Internet is slow here in colombia :(
Laby will never be a clone of other roguelikes like adom, nethack and the like. Its wanted to be different. So please do not expect that we change laby to be like all the others.
In one of the next version we will make it possible that players can exchange items in a new screen. as right now one has to place items on the floor and the next pick them up. it will also be implemented that one dungeon tile can contain more than one item. so if a player dies all his stuff remains in the dungeon. you can control the inventory pretty fast with the keyboard. to use something you can press the corresponding number of the itemmenue. what exactely do you mean with sluggish? We need to know to be able to improve that.
Do us a favor and write us when your crashes happen. We love bugreports :)
Game is far too complicated to do all testing ourselves anymore. At least we always invest some weeks for every version just to eliminate bugs. Right now bugfixing upcoming 4.8.0.
What we do not know we cannot fix. But we are 3 progammers that try hard to produce a stable game. So I can just promise that we try to eliminate every bug we know of.
