when i press tab to go to the pause menu it doesnt stop me from doing actions, so i will be moving when im in the menu.

another bug (i think): the event where you help sawyer and veronika(?) clean up the bodies in the theater, after i was given the prompt to help clean up i moved a bit and suddenly it acted like i just entered the room and nothing happened

Got it, adding both the above to the bug list!

so i replicated this bug dating sawyer only because i thought it might be related to something in the way the poly works (hence the section of text in the screenshot), but after the date and the start of sawyer's personal questline, it repeats the sequence where he asks me out? and i assume that's not supposed to happen if i'm already dating him before we go on the date. also if you've given tate your dorm room key and invite him in via the "walk me back to my dorm" action, both events can trigger at the same time. not complaining about the multiple tates, but i assume that's not intended behavior. there's actually a third tate under the text box, but it's the prom trigger one, so i assume that one is supposed to stay there until you start the "hide a body" sequence because it happens whenever i have the prom trigger active and i've given someone my dorm room key.

Gotcha, added all the above to the buglist! Alas, you're right, this universe can only contain one Tate at a time :')

Hi! Love the game so far! Noticed a few things on my play-through. Sorry for the wall of text but I played it all the way and just made mental note of things as ii went ;-;

One was the floating bodies / heads / characters stuck on screen thing. Noticed this mostly with Tate after [SPOILER] and at prom.

I used tab to try to open the menu during a dialogue and it did open, but then that messed up the dialogue and the inputs were taken for both, flipping between the menu and the dialogue on each key press and generally being weird. Probably my bad for trying to do that, but I wasn't warned against it and the menu does open (with the only way to then close it being a few inputs that mess with the dialogue).

In some of the make-out and sex minigames, the responses didn't seem to match the input I had selected. I can't remember if there were more, but the ones I noticed were in Juno's strip poker game, my character would win most hands and Juno would say she won, and/or not remove clothes (not sure if this is a bug or feature but she starts in underwear rather than dressed and removing clothes when she loses?). In Sawyer and Tate's sex minigame  a couple of times I think an option didn't seem to lead to the correct path (as in, the response matched an option I hadn't picked.).

Hexecutioner accepted my dating offer, but afterwards I had no 'dating' dialogue options unlocked, or any actions. I also couldn't break up with him or define if the relationship was exclusive. 

For the classes minigames, they never seemed to update or show my progress in the 'academic progress' dialogue (which went away after the freshers fair did) but not sure if this is a bug or just something not implemented.

And lastly, more of a suggestion I think? I tried dating everyone at once and the dialogue options for 'aren't you dating x' become very repetitive.  Is there a way to have an option with whoever you're dating to establish the relationship type, and for other people to know this if they know you're dating? Or for people to remember if you have told them once?

Again, I love the game so far and look forward to more !

Developer

Thank you so much! + thank you for the bug list!! Added all these to the fix list for next build!

Definitely agree on the suggestion, as well - gonna take another look at efficiently balance the dialogue for poly relationships next build!

Love the game! Found a bug with the bartending minigame, specifically Level 3: the Shirley Temple, Dirty Shirley, and Moscow Mule always fail even when I make them correctly. Might be tied to the ginger ale, since they all include that?

Gotcha, adding it to the bug list! (Almost definitely tied to the ginger ale thing too, good catch!) and thank you! :D

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this or not but after I meet all the characters in the forest scene Hex, Ashleigh, and Conington, I鈥檓 just trapped in an infinite loop of the forest with infinite characters(the ones mentioned before).

Developer

You can get out of the forest by picking the "Wanna go back to campus?" option when you talk to Hex!

thank you sm, I was getting a bit frustrated walking aimlessly in the forest lol.

v7.0017 complete Win version: Tata's darkside timer seems bugged. After being with him the first time, it stayed on screen. Then the next time we got busy it vanished then refused to come back. 

Developer

Got it, I'll take a look at it!

Hey hey! I tried out the demo and ran immediately into a bug -- my game's music skips. Whatever track it's trying to play, it plays like two measures of it and then just starts over again, repeats continuously; happens both on the initial load screen and in-game and the bug persists between zones on all music. I'm on Win10. I've fiddled with all the config options, tried win 7/win 8 compatibility mode, admin mode. Even made a new login account for Windows to see if it was anything wonky with my own main Windows account but no dice. My roomie has the full game and it doesn't do the same thing on her machine (she still runs Win7) -- she totally gets the full tracks playing. Any clues or solution to toss my way? I couldn't find this issue mentioned anywhere so I guess I get to be the very lucky special unicorn with this one.

Oh that's interesting, you're the first to report this one! Have you tried running it through the 32 bit sound drivers? I'll mess around with it on my roommate's Win10 machine to see if I can figure it out!

edit: Just realized that first sentence might've sounded sarcastic, so I wanted to clarify I do in fact find rare bugs legitimately interesting 馃槄

Thanks! If there's anything else I can provide to you (like a dxdiag or whatever), just lmk. I'm not sure how to use 32 bit sound drivers though -- I'll poke around here and see if I can find out how.

Update: tried to install the 32 bit drivers for my system but it wouldn't let me (I guess since Win 10 is a 64 bit OS), so I'm clueless otherwise. Sorry. :( That said, I'll continue to play the demo and just have the music off -- alas!

Developer(+1)

Hey again! So I *think* I might have a potential fix - if you pop open the Slasher U folder and open Game.cfg (which should open as a text file), change where it says "SEandBGM=3" to "SEandBGM=2". Fingers crossed!!

Well THAT worked! I thought I had tried all those permutations but it looks like either I didn't...or the moons aligned. The music is now playing fully, with no skipping. Amazing! Thank you!

Developer(+1)

Yesss I'm so glad!!! Enjoy :D
