Anybody else getting a lot of crashes just after meeting the giant rat?
I've gotten 1 at the base of the stairs when heading up on fire, and 3x just after being handed the bigger sword, and sometimes just as the fire extinguishing cutscene starts. Also when I get up the stairs and go for the chest instead, it crashes when I grab the book.
the sword and chest crashes seem related to picking up items, as the last thing I see is the item zipping over to the right status bar.

That's as far as I've gotten since it keeps dumping me to the ouya menu.

For the sake of finding a pattern if there is one, I'm on the purchased version with HD data.

Yep same probelm with getting thrown back to the dash. im using the standard trial version. happened in the same place at the bottom of the stairs in the basement and after getting set on fire by the rat, i ran back upstars to the bar and it thew me back to the dash just as the cut scene started. seems like a pretty cool game though! I like it :)

I have been kicked back to the Dash before in XBMC. I am wondering what causes this. I don't think it's from a crash, as when I was testing AutoPilot and realized that issue with the BOOT_COMPLETED intent being fired early, games and apps would crash, and when they did, you would be shown the standard Android "Application closed unexpectedly" dialog. I guess it could be that once the OUYA launcher is started, this crash dialog is hidden, but I am not sure.

Wow, nice to see a solid PS2 game here. I guess some of us were right - the good games ARE coming :D

Is this game in the sandbox for now? Maybe they'll fix the glitches later?

Totally. Even though it doesn't work well right now, having this title is huge.
Now I'm hoping more medium/large android shops jump aboard.

I cant see it on the store ! Any ideas ?!

This. Can't play the game if it crashes in the first five minutes!

I have it on PS2...a ...mediocre PS2 game, honestly.
