It won't launch at all? Any errors? A black screen? Are you also sure you have the correct download for your platform? There's an apk for Android, an exe for Windows and a zip for Linux. It's also possible the download was corrupted so please try redownloading the game as well.
It could be a corrupted download. Could you try deleting the .exe and redownloading the game? There's a number of things it might be but lets rule that out first. The game also needs to have write-permissions in the directory it's running in as it needs to create a config file for game settings and save files. If it doesn't have those permissions, it might lock on launch as it tries to write a config file. This behavior might also be getting blocked by an antivirus as the .exe is unsigned.
Sadly, it can't seem to run on HTML. I tried exporting the Godot version to HTML and running it but the game hard locks and I don't know why. Unless someone knows more about HTML exporting in Godot, I'm at a loss.
What? How? It's just Godot with Dialogic. Godot is open-source. Dialogic is open-source. There is absolutely zero net code in this game. I can't imagine how it could be interpreted as having a virus.
Completely safe. I coded it myself in Godot. Not only did I never use a single script written by AI, I don't know jack about netcode and wouldn't even know how to create something harmful if I wanted to- which I don't. I want people to enjoy my art and writing and support my patreon if they want to show support.
It could be a language setting on your computer. I only tested the game on computers set to English. i never tested on a computer set to another language.
At the moment, the game hard locks in browser when trying to load the exploration window and I have no idea why it's failing or how to fix it. Unless I can make headway on that, the browser version is not feasible.
There are three loss scenes you can encounter with the Minotaur. Was it the first, second or third loss? Was the black screen before or after you saw the sex scene? Are you on mobile, PC or Linux?
It's in testing right now. We're currently testing the PC and Mobile builds and we're still finding little bugs. Once we're confident we got them all, I'll set a launch date.
I've been doing my best to report, ban and delete every time I see them but this bot problem in Itch really is getting on my nerves. Seems I'm deleting them every day and it comes in waves.
I'm trying to address this in the next update. I increased the text size which will make the text easier to read while also spacing out the text into multiple text boxes instead of being crammed into one or two dense text boxes. The introduction is all optional and the opening can be skipped for players who don't care or don't wish to read it. However, for those who do wish to learn about the world and the context of the story, I want the player to be able to view it. As the game pads out, I'll have more opportunities to re-write sections so players can be eased into the setting instead of being lore-dumped in an intro.
Because to have that button, I would then need to implement that feature. Localization is a very big task. There's a ton of text to translate, and many things don't translate well from one language to another so having a local speaker to proof read and adjust the text is a huge undertaking. Then there's that I'd need to modify the text engines, every prompt, every UI element with text on it, to reflect the text from that region. As a one-person developer, that's just too much work and would delay the game for months, if not years, and cost me way more money than I'm getting back in support and donations. At this time, it's just not feasible.
We still need a few illustrations, some writing and a lot of testing. I am still finding more little things that need to be done, features to implement, and playtesting the first boss to make sure it's just the right level of challenging.
