So I was trying to go to town when the game black screen on me. I can till play but I couldn't see. I was able to closed the game but now when I try to play again I get an error in red letter next to character's name, and I can't play with that character. Is this a new bug or an old one? how do I fix this?
The error message appears when a game save was corrupted due to the game crashing or closing during a save. There is currently no way to fix it.. I am sorry it happened, and I will do my best to make it more resilient to that in the next patch.
Just wanted to say this is pretty promising so far! Really hope you'll be able to keep continuing on the development through completion.
The controls and core gameplay feel smooth, and the character creation alone is very promising, one of the most extensive already among NSFW games I've played.
I hope for more options and details for character customization like skin material/shininess (glossy/oiled look), muscle definition like abs, veins, and overall muscle toning and such.
Quite early for this question I think, but will this game ever have a multiplayer side to it, as in just a hub where people could connect and have 1v1's or something like that?
Multiplayer would be awesome, but it is a really significant workload. I would love to get better at multiplayer development, but I don't think I can fit it into development of Archipelagates at this point.
It is pretty time consuming to make drag and drop inventories work with controller. I will probably not be able to look into that in the near future. Sorry -_-
well thats understandable, but almost everything seemingly already works on controller aside basic movement and shift jump in a way so I was just wondering
I don't know what your plans are with the sexual part of the game for me, it's not why I play the game, to be honest. I really enjoy the hack slash part of it, the game loop is really fun at the moment even tho there's not much to do when you reach 20 that's it… Still it's fun.
But if you really wanted to do something about the animation part you could just add an Orgasm Bottom so you can either leave the animation to go for as long as you want or just orgasm instantly or a few secs after the animation started IDK… I'm not a game dev nor know anything about coding, hah.
As long as I can progress through the game with as little sexual acts as possible, I'm going to be happy.
Ty Dev. Ty ty ty. I know that it sounds odd, but the most important hole I looked forward to has been added. Praise the navel! As always, take your time and keep up the good work
Hey Raliv!!! the game is so much fun so far and i can't wait to see where it goes! i just wanted to ask if there was a discord that people who purchased the game could go to discuss the game and share screenshots or characters and the like?
If you use the Itch App, it does it automatically! If you are downloading manually, you will need to download the game again and run the new version. You can tell it is patch 0.2 if the upper right of the main menu says 0.230 in faded text (I should really make it easier to tell...)
This had little to do with that, I had been playing for a few hours before the update and I guess the update landing caused a soft loft/crash so the file got corrupted. it's ok, not the first file to fail to save.
Oh no! That sucks! I suspect there might be ways for me to guard against failed saves. I will try to look into finding a method to reduce that risk. Sorry that happened!
Hey Raliv, i actually adore this game you've put together, lovely smooth movement on top of a really fun game loop. The animations are really really good - particularly all the characters expressions <3
I was wondering if you were to ever consider making the game open to modding down the line? I know its early as hell but just wanted to show my appreciation. Keep up the awesome work man!
Modding support is pretty challenging. I don't want to say no because I agree it would be awesome, but I can't commit to it at this time since the game still needs a lot.
Hell yeah! This was the answer i was expecting, i know this game has basically just been opened as a demo xD But it's super cool to hear you wanna support it later! I'll keep an eye out for an announcement to just add more things like animations or CC options~
Hello, I am having a problem when I get to the gate and there is an NPC there, I click E to interact with her but there are no dialog options, I think it is because of the game resolution is there a way for me to change it?
For a game on its' first real public release, you sure did put a lot of content into Archipelagates- The movement is engaging, the islands are super fun to zip around on and varied enough to be pretty replayable, the combat may not be the most engaging thing yet, but assumedly it'll be worked on.
The character art is adorable and very alluring, and the costume system is super neat too! It's a bit on-release cyberpunk, kinda scrambling around for whatever has the most statistic gains, leading to a lot of slutty outfits, which, while not to my taste, has a certain flair to it that I kind of enjoy. The animations themselves are pretty nice.
I don't care for the emotes a whole lot, they're a bit fast, hot and heavy- I think there could be a bit more sensual flirtiness to the emotes and less overt "look at me jittering violently," but the actual animations, while they do end pretty quickly, are high enough quality.
This game shows extreme promise and I'm excited to see where you go with it! :)
I was wondering if that was going to be fixed today, wonderful! though in the mean time I've made and saved a few characters to use thanks to that bug.
Thank you!! I have some suspicions, but it may take a while to investigate.. I hope it clears up for you in game. The character build system works overtime in character create so there is a chance it won't be bad in game.
I just recently found this game through Discord on Gator Dragon Games. I'm glad I did, I'm in love with the fact I can wall jump and air dash and the Idle animation is great too. 😍 I look forward to what is to come with the future updates!
I hope more body patterns will be added for the dragons that include body plating and some for the tail itself.
Add a dye and an armor to a dye station (randomly found in structures) to color it. The system is simple at the moment though and not every clothing item works.
do you plan to add a feature to make the characters you create be in the town for the player to interract with or the possibility to create custom travellers/bandits at some point ? because you have such a great character creator that it would be a shame not to capitalize on it :)
I actually wish some of the interactions lasted a little longer, considering you can jump cancel out of animations its not like you'd be locked in if an enemy came up
is this coming to steam and if so will we get steam keys for it? this is kinda a down the line idea but i would love to see workshop items for this game. assuming there would even be a community that wanted to mod this lovely game.
Actually like how the game is so far, looking forword to the next update and whats to come! Hoping to see more content and possiblity of different species to choose beides the three we already have? <3
Hey Raliv, it's me Zenta! Downloaded the itch app just to get updates to Archipelagates automatically. How do I know when the game has updated? Will it let me know?
If you have the Itch app it will just auto update like steam does! I will also update the page here with patch notes. It updates pretty silently though, so I am not sure what the best way to announce updates is..
I will definitely announce on Twitter and update the page here though!
are the normal NPC's supposed to attack you if you kill/defend youself agains the dead? also i wish we had more emots not even like just more differences but like a different animation for each emote option randomly. if that makes sense
NPCs are too quick to get angry right now, I'll be dialing that back in an update. More emotes are planned too. I like the idea of randomly chosen variants!
The biggest thing this is missing is polish around town and more content in general as you mentioned. I haven't encountered any (obvious) bugs, which is really surprising for a new release, and the game is fun to play even without the nsfw. Exploration is good, weapon & clothing variety is at a good start, and the random little groups you find interacting give the game a bit of life that it wouldn't have otherwise.

the titles for MusclesArm and MusclesLeg are currently swapped
I'm sure someone has asked this before, is there or will there be a Discord for this?
I second this, wouldn't mind joining a Discord server for this game.
I have been planning to.. I'll try to make it sooner than later.
Love the new skeleton designs. Now I want to rip those claws from melee skeletons and use them as weapon
10/10 agreed
Pretty good game play for a furry sex game
I know right?
i was extremely surprised on how good the game feels to play, i had very low expectations for it but it turned out very fucking good hahah
where are the save files
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\RalivDev\Archipelagates\saves
(Pasting into your windows explorer will take you right to them)
did the steam page get take down
There was a misunderstanding with Steam, now the game is only available through itch.
PLEASE HELP!

Cool. Is there a way to delete the save so I don't have to see it anymore, or am I just stuck with it until I'm able to do so?
Go to this location on (usually) your C drive (copy and paste works in the file location of your file browser)
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\RalivDev\Archipelagates\saves
You can then delete the save file directly and safely from there.
You can make backups by copying the file if you want, too.
Any plans for this game to be released on steam in the future?
This game will not be released on Steam, sorry for the inconvenience.
All good. I was just wondering.
Just wanted to say this is pretty promising so far! Really hope you'll be able to keep continuing on the development through completion.

Yeah i didn't expect that was in the books really, i was just curious :)
15 days of asking why dont u answare me
I get pretty busy and the comments move fast sometimes, I am sorry I can't respond to everything.
No demo is planned for this game.
I would love to get my hands on a demo I can't afford the game in us dollers only in my local currency
will this ever have controller support
It is pretty time consuming to make drag and drop inventories work with controller. I will probably not be able to look into that in the near future. Sorry -_-
well thats understandable, but almost everything seemingly already works on controller aside basic movement and shift jump in a way so I was just wondering
Not a fan of the Longer sex animation time but the rest , very good looking forward to the next patch, keep it up.
It might be nice to have some control over sex animation time.. Like a modifier on clothing or a setting. Hmm..
I don't know what your plans are with the sexual part of the game for me, it's not why I play the game, to be honest. I really enjoy the hack slash part of it, the game loop is really fun at the moment even tho there's not much to do when you reach 20 that's it… Still it's fun.

Hell yea!
Hey Raliv!!! the game is so much fun so far and i can't wait to see where it goes!
i just wanted to ask if there was a discord that people who purchased the game could go to discuss the game and share screenshots or characters and the like?
Not yet, but I hope to set something up in the future.
How do I download patch, and how do I know its downloaded?
are you on the itch io app or the website?
If you use the Itch App, it does it automatically!
If you are downloading manually, you will need to download the game again and run the new version. You can tell it is patch 0.2 if the upper right of the main menu says 0.230 in faded text (I should really make it easier to tell...)
It did not do shit automatically, I had to click the gear on the bottom right then click manage then check for updates.
Got it thanks.
It does depend on your update settings and it sometimes takes a bit to realize it needs an update.
Understood, thanks.
HOLES CONFIRMED
OOF, I was still playing v18 not realizing, rip all that +3 and up gear. 😅
Sorry!!! I did not get a chance to fix the weapon mods balance yet. Next patch I promise!
This had little to do with that, I had been playing for a few hours before the update and I guess the update landing caused a soft loft/crash so the file got corrupted. it's ok, not the first file to fail to save.
Oh no! That sucks!
I suspect there might be ways for me to guard against failed saves. I will try to look into finding a method to reduce that risk.
Sorry that happened!
Fortunately, I'm an "Alt-o-holic" so starting over is not a big deal to me. 👍 But definitely hope there's a fix for it.
Update when?
On its way! In a couple hours tops!
EXCITE

Yes I agree
+1 for modding down the line.
Thanks so much!!

What will be added in the new update
Hello, I am having a problem when I get to the gate and there is an NPC there, I click E to interact with her but there are no dialog options, I think it is because of the game resolution is there a way for me to change it?
The new patch added a resolution option in the escape menu in game. Let me know if you still can't see dialogs.
For a game on its' first real public release, you sure did put a lot of content into Archipelagates- The movement is engaging, the islands are super fun to zip around on and varied enough to be pretty replayable, the combat may not be the most engaging thing yet, but assumedly it'll be worked on.

This game shows extreme promise and I'm excited to see where you go with it! :)
hello i said for 12 days ago can u plz do a demo and no answare
i love the game but the field sex is to fast
Yea agreed.. It is getting slowed down in the patch
perhaps just adding a Climax button so you can choose to take longer or make it quick to move on?
How do you delete saves?
How do you Load Saves >.<
You are experiencing a game save bug.. The patch coming on the 3rd fixes it. Sorry!
i managed to resolve the issue, the first character i had was bugged so i just removed that one and it worked
I was wondering if that was going to be fixed today, wonderful! though in the mean time I've made and saved a few characters to use thanks to that bug.
#SilverLinings
real
There isn't currently an in game way. For now the saves exist in your appdata folder on windows and can be deleted there.
Paste the following into your file explorer to find the directory
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\RalivDev\Archipelagates\saves
I see thank you
Experiencing massive lag in the character creator
I haven't seen this reported before. Does it lag in game? What kind of hardware are you running it on?
5700XT+3700X, 32GB Ram on Windows 10. Forgot to mention that its not all the time, will sometimes move very smoothly when tabbing back into the game.
Have yet to proceed fully into the game just yet, but will let you know if any other issues arise.
Thank you!! I have some suspicions, but it may take a while to investigate.. I hope it clears up for you in game. The character build system works overtime in character create so there is a chance it won't be bad in game.
I just recently found this game through Discord on Gator Dragon Games. I'm glad I did, I'm in love with the fact I can wall jump and air dash and the Idle animation is great too. 😍 I look forward to what is to come with the future updates!
I hope more body patterns will be added for the dragons that include body plating and some for the tail itself.
Not a furry, but enjoying the simple gameplay loop. Can't wait to see later updates.
Question though: How do you use dyes?
Add a dye and an armor to a dye station (randomly found in structures) to color it. The system is simple at the moment though and not every clothing item works.
Are there any posts showing what's in the next update?
When is the new update?
The update will be coming out may 3rd
Whats goin in on the new update
do you plan to add a feature to make the characters you create be in the town for the player to interract with or the possibility to create custom travellers/bandits at some point ? because you have such a great character creator that it would be a shame not to capitalize on it :)
Not for the may 3rd update, but yes that is planned.
yes, it'll be so cool :) but first i can't wait for the 3rd of may to come.
Lets get this answered once and for all.
Is it "Archipelagates" or "Archipela Gates"?
Haha, its a play on the word archipelago (a group of islands) and gates (the portals).
Is there a wiki or somethin? Would like to know what to do with the cooking pot
put berries in it
I actually wish some of the interactions lasted a little longer, considering you can jump cancel out of animations its not like you'd be locked in if an enemy came up
is this coming to steam and if so will we get steam keys for it? this is kinda a down the line idea but i would love to see workshop items for this game. assuming there would even be a community that wanted to mod this lovely game.
