Explanation

I would like to report a possible lighting/shadow rendering bug in Escape from Playtime.
I am experiencing a significant difference in lighting compared with another player who is playing the same game and, as far as we can tell, the same graphical settings.
In my game, dark areas and shadows are extremely dark, making it difficult to see objects and areas of the map. On my friend's PC, the exact same areas are considerably brighter and much more visible.
I have attached screenshots showing the difference between the two PCs. The screenshot with the brighter lighting is from my friend's PC, while the darker one is from mine.
Thank you for your work on the game, and I hope this can be investigated in a future patch.
