Build 0.4 (Plus another apologetic Delay)


Greetings friends, tis I, Rook, and I come bearing gifts in the form of 0.4! We hit some snags in development which led to this being posted a little later than intended, for that I apologize.

Build 0.4 Changelog:

  • 17K Words (Day 4 Content), as well as edits/additions to a few earlier lines for better understanding.
  • Finalized Dan's Sprite as well as a New Face!
  • Updated Mason's appearance in the Day 1 and Day 2 CGs. (While we didn't change the core basis of the design as was decided upon in that poll we did last month, we did give it a much-needed tune up.)
  • Three new custom tracks for your auditory pleasure.
  • The option to modify the speed or disable the automated message skips we've implemented. (Heavily requested feature found in the Menu Options)
  • We've also upgraded to Renpy 7.4 to test some additional features we intend to implement on a future build. (Due to this change there may be Save-Compatibility issues, our apologies for the inconvenience.)

Additionally, I must say thank you to everyone who's been supporting us. We just hit 600 ratings on itch last night, and I'm beyond overjoyed. I really didn't expect our little love project to get as much attention as it has, and it means so much that you all have given us a try and are continuing to read and support us on the way.

Now, onto less happy news... There will not be a public build next month. The reason for this is due to a change in our patreon model, changing builds from being 1 week early, to 1 month early. This is to make it so that we only have 1 deadline to meet, as well as to make our patrons feel that supporting us feels a little more worth it.

We hope you enjoy 0.4, and look forward to future updates from us. As always, be sure to let us know if you experience any issues with the build, and provide any feedback on what you did or didn't enjoy about it.

Having a bit of trouble, every time I download the game (pc version) and load it, all the words keep coming up blurry making it impossible to read?, and then it closes itself down. Any suggestions?

Can I ask what OS you're playing on, additionally do you have any screenshots you can provide us before it closes itself, additionally which version are you executing the 64-bit or 32-bit?

I use OS is Windows 8 and executing 32-bit for download. I've tried deleting the old version and reload new build but it always the words appear like this on the screenshot.


Oh dang, I only just saw this after posting my own issue, if you take a closer look, you should be able to see that all the text is actually italicized 10 fold, I know this doesn't help, but I figure it's neat enough to share.

Howdy Delta. I'm unsure if you've seen our latest DevLog but we actually discovered this is just an issue with Ren'py 7.4 and certain devices.

Give the instructions in this link a try and get back with me if they work or don't.

I agree with everyone, this VN is worth the wait! Hehehe God bless the Developer and Programmer and otherr peeps working on this project! Bugs or No Bugs still great tbh OwO

You need to stop apologising. This VN is worth the wait :)

Thanks for this awesome update! The new content is enjoyable and Mason's new style looks like a great improvement. Keep up the good work!

Ok, I have to ask, exercising with Jude - did you add the bit about how he gets his shirts on because of the Q&A, or was that dialogue already written?

I'll admit, the Q&A did inspire the scene a bit. It's a fair question though. :V

A wonderful update, I loved the "date" with Jade, really wish i could support you, but I'm not really able to do it rn, anyway, It'll be a pleasure to play the next update when it comes out, oh the feeling, and let me tell you something about Dan.... he's Dan hot, but i'll settle for my deer getting shirtless every 5 minutes, i wonder how we will spend the time together during the trip, I'm so eager to know more about him and his mother, he sure looks like he's handling a lot on his own... a lot to imagine, loving it really, bravo.

Oh, and i loved the tune up on the mc, bye <3

I'm also having the same problem, it seems that my PC is very old and can't run the new Renpy and I can't play, I'm sad that I can't see Elliot anymore ... but that's ok, maybe I can see him on mobile and I still wish you a huge success and your game.

I'm really bummed that so many of y'all are having compatibility issues, if it weren't for some of the features we have planned for future updates, I'd revert us back in a heartbeat. :(

no problem, of course, it's sad for some of us, but if it is for a better future of the game then let it be ;w

Greetings Someone, you never fully elaborated on the issue you were having before, but if it is the same as some of the others where it was a text display issue followed by a crash, perhaps this link could be of assistance.

https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/display_problems.html

another cool update, another cool VN get out of my reach. It seems that my computer is too old to be compatible with the upgrade renpy. So there nothing I can do for now but pray for the future success of Psychic Connect to come soon and become so popular, I get to watch it playthrough on youtube.

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear this. I presume you also don't have a mobile device capable of utilizing our mobile build?

Nope. I bought all the old stuff because it's cheap. Karma is catching up to me, I really soon have seen this coming.

Greetings DemonChild, while I'm unsure of the exact nature of your issue, if it's similar to the others who had a scratchy text screen followed by a crashing then this link may be of assistance.

https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/display_problems.html

If that's not the case, then sorry for bothering you with this, just excited to share a solution for an issue some had been having.

Whelp, throwing the option of sleep out the window. My angry psychic deer boyfriend must take priority.

I strongly agree

I think you have windows and linux together and it's given problems playing it?

It should work on both Windows and Linux. Admittedly, we haven't been able to do extensive testing on Linux OS.

I guess I coooould test it on my work laptop :v

I can start the game no problem but I can't read any of the words on the start screen  literally I can't make out any of the words out  on  my windows laptop and when I load a save same thing happens.

Interesting. We've got another bug to iron out, and I'll see about running it in a Linux Virtual Machine. Maybe then I can figure out what's going on. 

Inevitably we're going to have to push a quick hot fix for the few minor issues others find, so hopefully we can figure this one out as well before the day is over.

thank you

Greetings HollowKnight after a longer period than is likely necessary, we actually found this is an issue with the ren'py as they've recently removed a specific function from the latest versions.

Follow the instructions at this link and it should solve your issue.
