Then you’re gonna love what the in-game changelog says about that feature

Or what if the snake started running away from you, turned into a reverse horror game                                       

(For context… I am also one of those players)

I’m curious, is there a reason you made it so that the level can be beaten right from the start if we blindly guess the right pod, rather than having them all be death traps until we’ve eliminated all but one?

Maybe a super simplified level as a tutorial, with signs? Or, since it seems to be some kind of reality show, a cinematic introducing the show? “Every week, contestants need to…”

If you have a way to force your computer to use a dedicated GPU, do it. I know some laptops have like a general-use mode and a gaming mode that they (usually) automatically switch between.

From the inside

But honestly, I wish

Just mouse over it

So wait… what am I supposed to do after reaching max level? Nothing new unlocked, I can’t do anything with my money

By the way, is there an access password for that one server? I didn’t notice any clues

hello delicious…

Strength is the most desirable stat, next being Agility.

Interesting, most here seem to favor Dex (for the reduced cooldowns) and dump Str as useless. Not sure what you mean by “Energy”

“Next level in: hh:mm:ss” next to the exp/min would be really cool;

Not sure how that would work with the amount of fluctuation in this game… but if calculating such estimates wouldn’t hurt performance, yeah, that’d be neat

have you ever heard the expression “dick move”?

Good awareness—this kind of invective over a still-in-development demo is absolutely a dick move. If the dev made a change you didn’t understand, or if bugfixes glitched your save (which is what it actually sounds like), you could simply ask about it rather than trolling or crying or whatever it is you thought you were doing.

Now, what areas do you mean? I just started playing today and have so far unlocked a few areas; not sure how many there are total, but I currently have access to four. My assumption right now, until you post any sort of details, would be that either a progression bug gave you access to areas you shouldn’t have been able to unlock yet, or possibly some bugfix actually bugged your save (that’s kinda the nature of bugs).

Volume control in Audio Settings, or main menu Settings

How are you supposed to guess the time? The only thing that sticks out in the broadcast is the year of “that amazing play,” which is the frequency they’re on next. I got nothing that might be indicating a time.

I entered some commands, and now when I launch the game I just get a glitchy monkey-like head with distorted audio that sounds like speech I can’t make out, and then it just auto-quits after a minute. There doesn’t seem to be anything I can do. Is this a game-over screen?

I’m pretty sure you can’t get anything from the Play Store without using Google Play Services… that’s why they asked for a .apk direct download

I think this would be a question for itch.io support, unless this dev has dealings outside of this site.

This is kind of amazing. And unless I’m mistaken, this actually is a legitimate mindfulness meditation. Music’s a little loud for the voice, though; are there any settings?

Well, yeah, back then you needed every byte you could get, so everything had to be as optimized as possible. These days, it’s much less of a concern, to the point that file sizes can balloon by a hundred times due to inefficiently duplicating raw uncompressed assets in every file rather than referencing a single instance squeezed to a fraction of the size, and (unless it’s a massive project) no one cares because it really doesn’t matter. A lost art from the good old days when everything was harder and objectively worse.

The inline CSS on this page has ul lists at 100% width. The user_tools links (follow dev, rate game, etc.) at the top right are structured as a list, which here extends the entire width of the window, covering the download link. (You can easily see this by adding a background_color to ul.) This means the download link cannot be accessed.

This fundemntally breaks functionality to no benefit. Please fix this.

This game’s page has all ul elements at 100% width. This means that the Follow/Collection/Rate links at the top right extend all the way across the page and cover the download link. Please fix this!

You can still access the download link from the page source, or again by going in through your Library page.

Not really a “chapter” if one is all there is and will ever be…

It’s a Ren’Py game. Ren’Py is a visual novel engine. Visual novels are what this game is one of. What this game is one of is a masterpiece.

If you have a means by which to run Windows or Linux software on your Mac, then yes, it works on Mac. If you don’t, then look into virtualization.

How though? No mouse or touchscreen

You should work for free

FWIW, the Itch launcher installs the full collection but only runs one game, doesn’t let you choose.

Ooh, thanks! That’ll definitely help, gonna go hunting.

I still don’t understand how the filesize seems to be ten times what it could be, or why you don’t have separate downloads for Windows and Linux builds, but it’s not that much space anyway by today’s standards. I was just surprised at the compression ratio; sorry if I came across as complaining or criticizing.

Anyway, it’s a neat game. I find it really helps to work backwards from the goal, like it sometimes does with traditional mazes. Almost feels like cheating

Can you give an example of a secret, maybe just the easiest one to find? Haven’t been able to find a single one yet.

So what is up with this? The only language that’s set on my system is English. Why would this launch in Chinese?

How does this game take up over a gigabyte?! Couldn’t the Linux and Windows builds share files and cut the size down to half a gig? Which still seems unreasonable for an aesthetic that used to fit on floppies… I mean, the main level files alone are dozens of megabytes each, and they compress down to one, so what’s taking up all that empty space?

Where the heck are the “secrets”? What does one even look like?

Whitelist it in your antivirus, or disable it. If it’s the built-in “Windows protected your PC” message, click “Run anyway”; if that button isn’t there, check your Defender settings.

Really, you’ll want to try the support channels for your antivirus software to find out what to do about false positives.

The camera isn’t always able to keep up with your ship, especially if you fly closer to the ground. If you fly offscreen, the view just freezes until and unless you blindly get yourself back in frame.

Can you make the camera more aggressively follow the player?

Hi, this is a bug report.

This game identifies my Xbox Elite Controller (wirelessly connected through Bluetooth) as “Bluetooth LE XINPUT compatible,” with several issues:

• the triggers aren’t detected at all (so no default strafe button)
• the right stick’s Y-axis is nonfunctional and X-axis is treated as if it were the Y-axis
  • pressing left moves up, pressing right moves down
  • actually pressing up or down does nothing
• clicking the right stick (aka R3) does what the nonfunctional Start button should do

All of the above inputs work as expected in any other game I play, without making any changes.

Yeah, for sure! Doubt much good could come of keeping it on their (sometimes malfunctioning) radar.
