Well here it is – technical bla-bla all the way:

• All-in-all it works fine like previous Windows build before the engine update / NW-to-Electron switch – maybe a little faster, but it’s been a while already so not sure
• Saves from 0.2.4 load fine after moving them to the new location 😉 (${WINEPREFIX}/dosdevices/c:/users/${USER}/Local Settings/Application Data/Soft Fantasies/User Data/Default/*.vndata → ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/Soft Fantasies)
• Some minor issues I’ve found:
  • Version number on title screen still says 0.2.5 (probably not Linux specific?)
  • Main executable in archive is named just game which is a bit nondescript IMHO – maybe that can be changed to read Soft Fantasies or at least Game to highlight it a bit more between all those other files?
  • More importantly, the file is also missing the executable bit after extracting, so one needs to manually add that or it won’t start – ren’py can generate proper .zip-files like that, so it’s possible somehow at least
  • It failed to launch from the Lutris Flatpak without the --no-sandbox option, but that is true for any Electron application AFAIK and not something you can really fix
• I also couldn’t help but notice that the content scrambling (“file encryption”) is gone now – was this intentional on your part?

Also wanted to say I enjoy the new updates after 0.2.4! Couldn’t get to the special Shawn scenes yet, but very glad I got to enjoy some more of your stuff again and also very glad that the horrible mood at the end of 0.2.4 didn’t last beyond the following chapter. 😅
