Ffs I romanced Dyson exclusively and got Gunnars normal end because I didn't decide to marry him last minute. Even though they began referring to a marriage conversation that never happened.
I was hoping I was gonna get a polyam ending despite not getting polyam options but I just got thrown at Gunnar right at the end despite avoiding him.
Really odd.
I think it's because I didn't drink enough in the booze game but the requirements to get a good ending with any guy you want seems so limited (miss one thing and you don't get it).
I really like this game but it's a bit strange when you get on with one loads and then it curveballs you.
Omg is Dyson impossible? I just did another playthrough and it skipped the nightmare part so I couldn't get that part, I was doing everything else right, but never got the dating option it's coronation time..?
I feel like the walkthrough doesn't give me enough details, is it designed for if you're playing without the planner part activated??
Hi! I'm sorry you're having trouble getting Dyson's ending. The walkthrough is written for playing with day planning turned off, as the planner introduces too many other variables.
What happened, in case you're curious, is a common bug where, by getting too many points with Gunnar while on Dyson's route, the game gets confused and gives you the polyamorous ending. This will be corrected in the remasered version of the game.
But, yeah, it was my first game and I didn't know what I was doing, so it's got a lot of... quirks.
If you still care about who's polyamorous and who's not, as per your first comment, the polyamorous route is Dyson and Gunnar. Gunnar isn't typically polyamorous in general, but Dyson is an exception for him. Paz isn't fully polyamorous, but dragons have a cultural standard of women taking many lovers. However, there is no in-game polyamorous content for Paz.
I hope any of this is helpful. If you have other questions, I'm happy to answer!
Thanks for getting back to me quickly! :)
The problem I'm getting is I'm getting a conversation that implies I'm heading towards the polyam ending (the marry Gunnar convo) but I only ever get Gunnar's good ending, even if I was going for Dyson.
I haven't had a single polyam ending, and I just ran the polyam route (after getting both boys good ending) with the planning off.
I do get a series of errors really early into their route, where you're outside with the dog, I don't know if that's related but that's so far early and it seems more confused in the last act tbh. (The errors are just white pages with code and it makes me press 'ignore' about 6 times before it goes back to the game, then I can just rewind to see whatever it skipped. The error seems to get confused about where Dyson is standing when he joins the convo I think?)
If you can do more it'd be cool to see how Paz got on with a polycule too. I think Gunnar and Dyson are cute metamour's/partners. I like how they both play with dominance and submission in different but flexible ways (even if one is a fluffy alpha lol).
Well this is a fantastic game for your first one, it has way more content than most VNs I've played, the fact your bugs are mostly related to 'too much content/variability' is kinda a compliment to your work, in a way lol
I'm gonna try to do the other characters' routes and try the polyam one once it's been remastered then. :)
Oh actually, one small question, in the polyam walkthrough it says 'both' for the penultimate option. Should I have a decision where I can pick the word 'both' or does this mean the next relevant choice has 2 options and either give you a point?
Because I had multiple options between the antepenultimate choice and the ultimate choice, and none of them had the word both, so I tried going through them with different options but it didn't seem to make any difference.
Just want to check I'm not missing some content!
So I just played through the polyamorous route real quick to make sure that it wasn't broken, and I was able to get the right ending, but I also didn't get any errors, so that's pretty weird that you were getting them. Luckily, that shouldn't affect your ability to get the poly ending.
There should be a scene shortly after the nightmare where Gunnar and Dyson show up to give you the option to date both of them, and that's where the "Both" comes in. If you're not getting that, then the problem is happening somewhere before that point.
After that, there should be a karaoke date with both boys, and then the kidnapping stuff. If you keep Gunnar alive during all of that, then you should be on the right track.
I really wish I could be more helpful!
Huh yeah, that option is totally missing. There are a few times when it seems like I've skipped content or it was a fast transition (for example in Paz's route when I'm training with Gunnar then suddenly end up going to the hot tub lol).
But, I'm pretty sure it's just the polyam route that's specifically buggy for me, with the early errors and then the missing dating option. They just both seem to know I'm dating them both without a conversation and then Dyson brings up a convo we never had about me dating Gunnar only, then I either pick to marry Gunnar or not, with no other options. So it's like I'm in the polyam route but it gets confused and puts me back on the Gunnar ending.
When there's a new version, I'll try the route then as I think it just went wonky when I downloaded it and I'm too technophobic to know how to fix it lmao
