It is saying that you can get free 100 Picnic Basket if you own Arctic Warrior Equipments (which is obtainable in January 2023 event), not the otherwise. You can no longer get the equipments.
Hey i have a concern regarding the quest in the Adventure guild: The quest requires you to collect materials from the new dungeon for Lambert, but i don't know which ones specifically since i can't find and talk to Lambert. I presume he's in the Alchemy shop but that one's not in the game anymore for the time being? How am i to complete the quest? I also have two CG sets still locked for the public build (not Sieg's capture and serpent defeat) which i can only believe are unlocked through this quest.
i get my computer new computer up and running and install itch again, what do i discover XD this game is no longer blocked behind a weird password thing and it has a new image on it as well.
never thought i'd see this title active again but kept it stashed in my collection just to be sure, i guess the gamble paid off.
yep same thing happen to me hope it get fix next update since im trying a magic build. Also dont wink at a slime in the slimedunegon lol they dont like it and crash the game lol.
the art in this game is incredibly well drawn, definitely one of the better VNs out there in terms of art quality. the writing, however, could do with some improvement. specifically, the English used in this game is riddled with grammatical errors to the point of being nearly unintelligible. i would highly recommend the developers of the game find someone to go through the story and correct the grammatical errors, as they are seriously hampering the game's immersion and storytelling capability.
i've been taking attention to your game since before remastered release, and i must say, Art and Storyline changes have been improved in this one, i almost though you would abandoned this project knowing how long you haven't update this game.
but there is always a room for improvement, especially on the story writing and the code, you might need a proofreader to make sure everything you write in your game is well-structured and grammatically correct.
i have a friend that passionate enough to be in a project as a proofreader, if you happen to have a Facebook, you might consider to talk to the guy
by his permission, i'll share his FB account here so you can reach him if you interested on having a proofreader :
My personal review 'w' (Sorry if my English kinda sucks):
I played this game when it was in a much earlier build and hadn't been reworked and I think the game has very good potential to be good! It's a shame that Lentera isn't as popular or as well known as other RPGs like Tavern of Spear. But hopefully as time goes on when you get more content you'll find more ways to advertise your game and have a bigger community.
With that said I will split my review into sections (Don't take my review to heart and if you disagree then all goods! I would just like to add some personal suggestions):
CONS:
Character development - I feel as though the main character becomes way too well acquainted with both Rugra and Rex. Literally at the beginning Rugra does a very big favor for the main character and continues to be very helpful despite not having any bond or connection with the main character. (It does make Rugra very cute, adorable and caring which I really like though lol) However, it feels as though Rugra is assuming that the main character from the beginning is a very good boi and his care doesn't feel earnt. The main character also lusts for Rugra and Rex very fast too lol. I would like to see the main character lust for Rugra and Rex but as time goes on they delve into a deeper relationship when they learn secrets about each other. I feel it would be better than faking the whole bond to become best buds off the bat as we as the player have not connected with both Rugra and Rex yet. (I understand not much content with them has been created yet so you still have a lot of room to make a good relationship 'w'!)
Story - Overall, it feels as though the main character isn't really encountering any overarching problems. He has: Free food, a free room, free gear to defend himself with, and free hot daddies. The only problem I can see is that the main character lost his memories but I feel as though he doesn't really have a background and was intended to be this way for the player to immerse themselves into the main character (which can be a good thing!) but from a narrative standpoint the story may become flat if nothing much goes on as the player doesn't have many questions to ask or any mysteries to uncover. I'm not exactly sure what to suggest to add to the story but all I would say is add some more conflict / have consequences to the player's actions (e.g The main character gets tricked by a sexy hunk to go steal valuables for him by pretending to own those valuables and if the main character doesn't have enough agility they get locked into jail or something like that) (and I think the conflict with Rex and the guards is a good start 'w' I think it'd be good to incorporate stat blocks to certain interactions like for example you need 10 intelligence to find out what's on Rex's mind)
Combat - This is what the player will be doing most of the time and the player's stats revolve mainly around combat too and the combat just feels pretty lackluster. When you do an attack you get no SFX or Anim showing you did this attack and it was like this in the previous unreworked build too. Even status effects don't really have any visual indicator. But I do get that the game is still in a very early state but I'd like to see more things to give combat more flair like: Adding quick time events, SFX for special moves, Attack animations, Camera shaking from getting hit, Special screens when inflicted with status effects (e.g red slime being stuck on the screen, red streaks and warning sound when low health), Character expressions when low or very horny during battle. All of these added up can really improve the combat aspect of the game even though they seem small. On an additional note: I would like to see more fun mechanics like special puzzles you can do in the dungeons or special stat requirements that lead to treasure or secret endings. So far the dungeons just feel kind of bland as there really isn't much to do there but fight. There is no hidden lore or secrets or special items you can use that you've found to open up hidden parts of the dungeon. It's just kill the enemies then kill the boss and you're done which I don't find very fun but given some time and tweaking it can become fun! 'w'
PROS:
Character Designs / Art - Wow, the art is really good! I really like the character designs (especially Rugra because he's really cute) and I'm happy that the characters are buff too lol. The art isn't the best in the world but it does the job well and I like the pec close up drawings lol. The only thing I would suggest is more facial expressions. I want to have Rugra show more emotions. Have him be confused, conflicted, surprised by your horny remarks etc. All of these add flavor and cuteness to your characters and so far I haven't seen many expressions but it's all good!
Game Overs - You nailed the game overs really well. I definitely love the slime game overs. They are my favorite! 'w' The art is very good and the writing for these scenes is really good as well. I hope to see more hypnosis and slime related content in the future! No suggestions this time just keep doing what you've been doing!
Additional suggestions - I would like to see the main character face more stakes in the story. I find that if the situation has high stakes the better the game over will be. For example: Say a bandit leader has kidnapped Rugra and it's the main character's job to save him from getting indoctrinated into becoming a bandit before a certain time frame. However, the player is underleveled and cannot save Rugra right away or needs to do some prequisites to find him (e.g gathering clues as to where the bandit's hideout is via. hiding in a certain spot at a certain time of day) and if the player fails to save Rugra before the deadline then the newly indoctrinated bandit Rugra will kidnap the main character and also make him a bandit. I just find making use of the time system could make for a more interesting situation 'w'
thank you for your feedback! yes indeed the story is pretty much flat for now, i should have give more 'hints' about MC in the current story, and at the same time i cannot rush the story, the very first build i spoiled a lot and it turns real bad writing, now i hired a writer and i told em all what really is "lentera" about, why it is called like that, who is the egg figure in the main menu, and blah blah which i cannot tell publicity and just hoping they will understand by time, but they cannot overwork as well so sometimes i did the writing and they will fix what i did so far. nevertheless, i really appreciate your time to give us positive feedbacks.
Tome of Fireball cannot be accurately equipped in Android build, an exception is thrown citing no image look up pathway. Same type of error as flirting with slime
thanks a bunch! also, idk if it's a bug or feature but every time i forfeit from slime dungeon is it supposed to make me lose my current gold in inventory? coz I thought doing so strip the gold i get from exploring the dungeon
love the game so far btw especially them moobs (Men's booba) racks so big, make woman feel insecure XD.
Please remove the comments where the MC states he's not into men at the beginning of the game. I can't appreciate the game with such horrendous statement that negs the main audience of this game. Once thats fixed I can fully support this game.
Hi, thank you for your feedback! I designed Zegha (MC) as a very shy person who keep denying that he is interested into men to speak up but his whole body rejects and keep saying yes to men, eventually he is completely gay by time goes.
If he has internal conflicts with liking men then you need to do more than having that same line if you don't want it to come off like cringe. I only say this because he's seemingly forgotten everything except that he doesn't like men. From a story standpoint its unneeded.
Did I download the wrong version? There seems to be a lot of content I'm missing since the story ends after Rexile runs off. Am I missing something or is the most recent version simply not on Itch yet?
I just want you to know there's no need to rush. There vn devs who just disappear out of nowhere... leaving us with no update (cough cough). Take as long as you need its enough that your giving us updates. Especially if you are dealing with issues in real life. I'm looking forward to the next update. Thoughhh I will say to not make deadlines for yourself if you aren't too sure--- puts alot of stress on you.
there was a last update? Was it public or patreon only? Cause i see the pic on the top of the screen(itch io website) and im thinking " i have not come across this scene,(or any scene) ive only been fighting slimes and not able to explore city just the 3 forests at the bottom of the map" (Just so i can keep my brain on track 😅)(again not trying to come off as rude in any way)
no slime's are the only enemies atm and there hasn't been an update yet although i did see a possible april 15th mentioned in the discord.
Also it's kinda crazy that the fact the script writer was on Army duty for 3 months wasn't mentioned anywhere but the discord kinda some useful key info there.
My takeaway is if you want any real info just go check the discord.
Had a couple of hiccups. First I couldn't install it via itchio app, had to download it via the web. Also tried to send a $1 paypal payment and got a error message. May want to have someone test out that stuff for you.
Wow, this new build is a whole lot differnt from the original plot! But a good rewrite none the less~ ^^_
Might I suggest that the MC tells Rugra the truth about his situation before being offered to stay at the inn for free? While Rugra helped him out of the kindness of his heart to enter the city, I do believe that the shark should have some context about the MC's situation before so quickly inviting him to stay (unless of course, Rugra already knows of the MC's mysterious arrival...?) :3
Looking forward to seeing more of what xou have planned :)

Hey i have a concern regarding the quest in the Adventure guild: The quest requires you to collect materials from the new dungeon for Lambert, but i don't know which ones specifically since i can't find and talk to Lambert. I presume he's in the Alchemy shop but that one's not in the game anymore for the time being? How am i to complete the quest? I also have two CG sets still locked for the public build (not Sieg's capture and serpent defeat) which i can only believe are unlocked through this quest.
lambert is in district 2, follow the instruction in your side quest tab
i can date rex ?
yes in future, there is affection feature which is much to explore with in future
I found this, what do I do now?
I'm missing many parts of the text
thank you for ur report, we will fix that next build
The build download in the Itch app is busted again. >_>
intriguing :)
i get my computer new computer up and running and install itch again, what do i discover XD this game is no longer blocked behind a weird password thing and it has a new image on it as well.
never thought i'd see this title active again but kept it stashed in my collection just to be sure, i guess the gamble paid off.
Hello. And when will the June patch go public here?
hiii, its up now
There's a bug where my game crashes when I try to equip the fireball skill

Have chinese?
Hai mei hao, dan wo men nu li zai xia ci geng xin zhong jia ru zhong wen ban ben
Machine translation confuses grammar
That's why we can communicate, but we can't communicate perfectly.And dear, the Chinese version still can't be find.
gila ART-nya maknyuss bwang
lanjutin bang storynya juga enak
the art in this game is incredibly well drawn, definitely one of the better VNs out there in terms of art quality. the writing, however, could do with some improvement. specifically, the English used in this game is riddled with grammatical errors to the point of being nearly unintelligible. i would highly recommend the developers of the game find someone to go through the story and correct the grammatical errors, as they are seriously hampering the game's immersion and storytelling capability.
thank you, ive hired a writer
i've been taking attention to your game since before remastered release, and i must say, Art and Storyline changes have been improved in this one, i almost though you would abandoned this project knowing how long you haven't update this game.
but there is always a room for improvement, especially on the story writing and the code, you might need a proofreader to make sure everything you write in your game is well-structured and grammatically correct.

All and all, i really wish for future update and having another amazing improvement in your project
thank you, but im not lacking of proofreaders, i had writers and proofreaders enough, what i need is consistency
Is it normal to get error screen if i flirt with Slime?
你会说中文吗？
diandian, bu hui xie.
ni hao ma.
ni hao :)
不要调戏作者了(●'◡'●)
The game looking amazing so far, but i played on smartphone and the android version is a bit mess
yep, its a bit mess with all the visual bugs,
My personal review 'w' (Sorry if my English kinda sucks):

Tome of Fireball cannot be accurately equipped in Android build, an exception is thrown citing no image look up pathway. Same type of error as flirting with slime
fixed next update
when i try using flirt on a red slime an error occures that i could find an image u'char/redslime s1.png
any way to fix that besides avoiding flirting with the slimes?
also i've just finished the game, at least for now, and ive got 2 locked cgs
try to restart your game, slimes are not flirtable opponent, but i might try different approach to avoid this bug next patch
any guide on transferring saved data without messing up the event page?
My old save had the last winter equipment from version 1.0. It would be unfortunate if I had to start over and lose all of them.
(DONT DELETE YOUR SAVE FILES)
- For Windows, Just replace all the folders, make sure you don't delete your save files so you wont lose your progress since previous patch.
or:
1. Extract your folder
2. go back to your old lentera version folder, copy "saves" folder, and replace it to the new extracted directory folder one
thanks a bunch! also, idk if it's a bug or feature but every time i forfeit from slime dungeon is it supposed to make me lose my current gold in inventory? coz I thought doing so strip the gold i get from exploring the dungeon
love the game so far btw especially them moobs (Men's booba) racks so big, make woman feel insecure XD.
No android .3.
there is a little issue about the keystore so we delayed the android build until its fixed
update, its up now, the issue has been solved
My my!...i will reply soon as i can cutie~

Nobody asked you, shut up.
literally
nah i kinda get it like some of the writing is bit cheezy
cannot play itch.io pc build undefined
Well… That was short… Really good but short… Still good game. Waiting for update!
I want to Android download it game pls
Did I download the wrong version? There seems to be a lot of content I'm missing since the story ends after Rexile runs off. Am I missing something or is the most recent version simply not on Itch yet?
Yeah I thought there was more too but it just ends the same way as the previous build. I started fresh too.
Me: On my way to download n play some straight hentai vn.
F1sh: (Rates some kinda game)
Me: pfft probably nothing interes- (Turns out to be Literally the thing I’ve been searching on this site!)
Me:… I didn’t even played it … Yet … (Clears throat) but i know… I know … That My dick is gonna hurt tomorrow.
I just want you to know there's no need to rush. There vn devs who just disappear out of nowhere... leaving us with no update (cough cough).

Thoughhh I will say to not make deadlines for yourself if you aren't too sure--- puts alot of stress on you.
we are still working on next update, please join discord for further informations
Is there any thing to do besides fighting the slimes? (Not in a rude way) I just havent encountered any other mobs .
it just dropped and based on the last version yes there is more than just slimes..
there was a last update? Was it public or patreon only? Cause i see the pic on the top of the screen(itch io website) and im thinking " i have not come across this scene,(or any scene) ive only been fighting slimes and not able to explore city just the 3 forests at the bottom of the map" (Just so i can keep my brain on track 😅)(again not trying to come off as rude in any way)

you are awesome for letting me know. Thank you 😁

I like this version so far, but I'm curious to try the old version to see what did I miss. Is there a way to get it?
A overall good restart for the game.
The artworks, backgrounds and characters fit much better together and the writing is more believable now.
I am not a big fan of jiggling man-boobs, but that's a matter of taste and I am sure there are enough ppl out there wich will be into this.
Good luck with this one...
Had a couple of hiccups. First I couldn't install it via itchio app, had to download it via the web. Also tried to send a $1 paypal payment and got a error message. May want to have someone test out that stuff for you.
This game cannot be installed with the itch launcher? No version listed for installation.
Wow, this new build is a whole lot differnt from the original plot! But a good rewrite none the less~ ^^_

Hey, just making sure, is the current version supposed to be V 0.1.0 or 0.1.5? I downloaded the 1.0 one.
