Weekly Update News #18

Tail Saga : The Princess Apprentice
A downloadable game for Windows, Linux, and Android

Hey! It's time for some more news!

What is this code revision you're talking about?
Let me explain, early on in the project (way before v1.0 was even out). I thought it was a good idea to implement Discord Rich Presence functionality into the game. The long and short of it is that I've removed it from the latest version of the game, v2.3 and it will be missing from future versions as well.

Why is this a big deal?
The Discord Rich Presence code had some tie-in with the save functionality. So if now in v2.3 you try to load a save game that was made when the DRP is in the game. It would try to load in the variables and stuff that was there before, now missing. TLDR, the save files wouldn't be compatible.

Are my save files gone now?
Yes, but I've created a way for you to recover them almost effortlessly. Requirements are if you have played through the game enough to unlock the codex/gallery functionality. You can then skip through the scenes until you last left off. You cannot skip past scenes you haven't seen before with this method.

To wrap this up...
It was a stupid mistake on my end to allow this DRP feature to be in the game for as long as it did. It was stupid for me to remove it now, but I think it's better to remove it now than to do it later. C: I should probably be careful of what features I fit into the game from now on...

Oh yeah! The new version, v2.3 is available for download now! There's no content updates yet (they're coming with v3.0), so this is more meant for the new players to the game.

That's it for now!
