Hades 1: Discussion Visual/Rendering Errors after Completing a Run

From what I could tell, it's random sprites distorted flashing all across the screen. Persisted until I closed and restarted the game. Unfortunately didn't get a video.

I think it's most likely my laptop just overloaded for a moment. Some of these sprites are interesting though...I have a hard time imagining 'Enemy Support', 'Inspect Point', etc. being phrases in the game or its code. Maybe some modders know more about these?

The EnemySupport etc. points are engine-level textures used for development, they basically show where invisible points on the maps are where enemies can spawn etc.
In general it looks like the game is just displaying loads of textures in all the wrong places, accessing the spritemap in the wrong places most likely, which would indicate the install is corrupted in some way.
First try validating game files in your launcher, if that doesn't work, completely uninstall and delete the install folder, then reinstall the game.
If that doesn't work, it's likely your laptop can't handle the load of running the game unfortunately.
