This should not be the case. There's been an issue with people trying to open rar files recently, perhaps that is the issue?

You can learn more about it here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-files/winrar-extract...

If that is NOT the issue you are having then let me know and we'll see about figuring out what exactly is going on.

no i dont think that that is the problem as Itch itself tells me there is not .EXE file included, not WinRAR

GateKeeper_A6 years ago

No, there is no exe file. The game is a HTML file that opens in your browser. Simply double click the HTML to open.

i see, you got a different download link for the game? becase the itch one (obviously) doesnt work

GateKeeper_A6 years ago

I actually just downloaded the versions here on itch and everything runs for me. Just double click the html and it opens right up in the browser.

The free version can be found here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/inheritance-a6-16907383

If you paid for the game, itch gives me some information about sales. If you can give me the date you paid for the game I can look up using the date (Sold three copies this last week, so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out which one is you if you've got a date). I should then be able to email a copy to you directly.

you clicked the download button? cuz there are no other links on the itch page to dowload the game.

if its on Patreon, maybe include a link to it on the game's page here?

also, no i haven't payed for it

GateKeeper_A6 years ago

Not sure why things wouldn't be working for you. I can download the free version, open it and it plays just fine.

I trust you were able to get the game through the Patreon page?

Adding a Patreon page to the description is a good idea. I should probably do that.

The Waslijn6 years ago

i don't know either :/

and yes, i was able to get the game just fine from the patreon page

good, lol. that will hopefully prefent something like this from happeing in the future

That's really odd, I uploaded the same compressed file to both places. Its really weird that it works from one place but not the other. The important thing though is that we got you a version that works!

Hope you enjoy the game. I've got a new build in testing right now that should be released late this week. Keep your eyes pealed, I always post new builds to Patreon first, then move to the other places I post to. It should go up everywhere on Friday afternoon/evening.

The Waslijn6 years ago

well, i think that is cuz Itch wants a .exe file and not a HTML one. and that's why it doesnt work

i enjoyed it for what content was there, your pretty good. i see, then i'll definitely keep that in mind to check if a new build has been released

I purchased the link posted on itch but it isn't working properly for me I have tried to re download and open it in different places, the game gives me problems to play and the images wont load (any of them).

GateKeeper_A4 years ago

Have you contacted itch.io about the inability to download? They're the ones hosting the file here.

On a side note, if you're having trouble, drop me a message over on our Discord where we can talk through private message. I'll see to it that you get a working copy of the game one way or another.

Just sending a followup. I didn't hear back from you after my previous reply. Hoping that you got the issue resolved, and if not you can message me any time and we'll try to get you sorted.
