Bugs & Stuff

Limbo Line
A downloadable odd predicament for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Please post any bugs or typos you find here and I'll try my best to fix them :3

Some stuff I'm already aware of:

  • Not all text 100% matches the voice acting - Sometimes I've done this intentionally for players who choose to turn off voice acting so that the dialogue reads more naturally when it's only text, but in certain instances, I may have just not spotted something that needs changing

  • sophrossynes' folder in the Art Stuff unlockable folder on the PC displays the same as what's in DestiniDraws' folder - This is because I was planning to include some of her concept art so I put the code in ready (a copy of the code from the Destini folder) and was just going to replace the jumps to the correct images. However, she didn't have time to send me any of the sketches she did + the game is already pretty asset-heavy, so her concepts aren't in there, but the code I prepared remains because I didn't get a chance to take it out before the jam deadline, haha FIXED


  • Skipping sometimes breaks voice acting and leads to random freezing - I have no idea how to fix this because I use the default skip function in NaniNovel

  • Some voice lines continue to play when skipping - This is, unfortunately, unavoidable because of the way voice lines are assigned in NaniNovel. I can't stop them from playing like I can with SFX unless I mark a text printer to do so, but then that sometimes leads to lines being cancelled prematurely when clashing with my code for mid-sentence expression changes on sprites >.<

  • Near the start of the game, after choosing your manager's voice, once you reach the office and Acheros introduces Nine to Kiol, when Acheros leaves, don't have skip mode on while he's leaving >.< Using skip mode or trying to get the text in that one sentence as he leaves to complete faster actually bypasses my fix because skip mode bypasses wait commands >.< It results in being unable to save the game after that point. You can keep playing, but the save function will just freeze the game when you try to use it.

    As long as you just let that one sentence complete on its own as he leaves, you will be fine and it won't break the save system.

    It's so annoying because when I was testing before submission, I looked up the error, and it's a Unity problem rather than Naninovel, and other users had asked for help with it, but the only answers given were that it shouldn't be happening, Unity must be borked >.< Which isn't very helpful. I figured maybe I could stop it from happening by preventing the player from proceeding too quickly with that one line of text by forcing a wait. And in the previewer, that worked just fine. But I didn't consider the fact that folks might use skip text, and that skip bypasses wait >.< FIXED?


  • There is currently a bug caused by me missing out 1 key when typing the code for unlocking CG 31 & 32 >.< It means that currently, you can only unlock one or the other without completely deleting your save data from the hard drive. I'll make sure to fix this when I get a chance. I basically set an unlock condition as = when I meant to type equal to OR greaten than ">.> FIXED


  • The game freezes/crashes upon being introduced to Nyari (pink-haired catgirl) instead of loading the rest of the game - Please try downloading the 'Potato Version' for your respective system. This version is designed to lessen the loading strain on lower-spec computers by splitting the game into smaller chunks with multiple loading screens instead of just 1 big one :3
