There's a really interesting concept here - I'd love to learn more about the underlying lore and the purpose of the directive and the organic being as Naver said. This is a really unusual, left-field game and I'm keen to see more to figure out what on earth could be going on in this strange world!

Thanks for submitting Rust to the SCREAM MACHINE jam!

Hey, I'm just glad I got to be a part of the jam! I'm glad that people are liking Rust  so far, and I'm currently planning a patch that'll hopefully "flesh" out the lore a bit more, as well as add general polish to the game. I'm actually really happy tat people seem to enjoy the concept! 

^-^

I was able to run it after your update. Gruesome, indeed! I was hoping to find out more about the being I was repairing, but it definitely seems to be an interesting world you set up.

Developer

I'm definitely going to be adding a patch to the game after the jam is complete (or at some other point in the future), but I'm really glad that it sounds like you enjoyed the game!

Developer

Okay everyone, hopefully I have it fixed by now. I hope that y'all enjoy the game!

Is this game playable on Mac? Says it is next to the Download button, but all I'm finding is an .exe file. 

Developer

Sorry, I'm on a PC, so I was under the impression that Macs and PCs weren't all that different. I genuinely didn't know that. I admit I probably should've researched that beforehand, so I'll change it if I can't figure out the compatibility. I'm honestly sorry about the inconvenience man. I seriously didn't know.

You do not have to apologize! It happens. Just wanted to try it out so was curious :) 

Developer

Oh okay! I still feel kinda bad though, so thanks for being so chill about this ^-^

It immediately crashed with RGSS-RTP not found error

Seems that some audio files are missing so game is definitely broken. If you're interested to see what's inside... well... I managed to run it but first of all you have to empty all RTP voices (there is one with "Standard") by editing Game.ini file with a text editor... and then replace all audio files with anything... I didn't try to make it further though as music is the part of the experience...

Hey, sorry about that. I'm working on fixing the issue. Apparently it might've compressed improperly. I'm working on it, and it should be fixed before the day's out.

Thanks, it looks so good on the screenshot that I just really need to play this one :D. Thanks for fixing!

Developer

Okay, I think it should be working now! Sorry again about all of this, I'm not super familiar with RMXP ;-;

Now, one of the wall textures is missing. But I can see some progress with fixing it :D.

Developer(+1)

Yeah, I have an idea of what's going on now, I think it's some sorta compression issue. I just gotta put the files in the folders and it should be fine from there. It'll take maaaaayyybe five minutes? ^-^"
