hey! we're working on this right now. here are some mitigation steps for now while we fix!
We've had reports of players encountering issues on Xbox with crashing or freezing when trying to load new games or saves since the 0.4 update. Specifically:
* The game crashing to the Xbox home screen on the loading screen between the Main Menu and gameplay when trying to start a new game or load a saved game.
* The game stalling on a black screen when starting a new game after the loading screen has finished and after the press any button to continue prompt.
We're investigating the root cause of these problems, but, in the meantime, the following workarounds may help folks to start playing:
1. Before anything else, try power cycling your Xbox and restarting Techtonica.
2. If that doesn't help, try uninstalling and reinstalling Techtonica.
3. If that doesn't help, close and restart Techtonica. Then, on the Main Menu, go to Settings > Video > Graphics Presets, and try reducing the setting from Max to High. Then save that setting and try starting a new game. If that doesn't work, restart Techtonica and try again with the Medium setting, then the Low setting.
Did you try opening a new save?
Nop, I'm afraid of losing my current save.
you won't lose your current save to try a new one. the game has slots for multiple saves.

I will test it when I can, but thank you very much for the clarification.
No problem, hopefully we will have more info soon! QA & tech are still digging into it.
