Nah. Not in an official sense, anyway. I'm just doing this for fun, and I like doing the writing and coding and drawing, so I wouldn't really want to hand that to someone else.
Though my friends have helped out with the backgrounds and the pixel art before, and they may end up helping with other stuff again if they want to.
Hello! I'm sorry that it hasn't been working well for you. I can't help but wonder if this is a wifi issue or a browser issue or maybe even an itch.io site outage issue (itch.io seems to go down a lot. I have no idea why.)
The images and audio not loading combined with the fact that the code shown in the error isnt actually my coding that I did, but rather chunks of renpy's base code makes me think the game just refuses to download properly for you. if it continues not to work I would try clearing out your cookies and maybe even using a different browser. I'm sorry for the trouble :( I hope your most recent attempt has been working
Glad you liked it! I appreciate the interest, but I wouldn't ever put my things behind a paywall like that. Sometimes I put things on my tapas account (usually not until they're actually in the game), and thats here: https://tapas.io/series/Ford-Sim-Art/info
But when I warn of spoilers there, I mean it. There's like, stuff from all the way into day 4 on there. There's even concepts for Stan's game if you go far enough lol.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. I don't really have a schedule for this game, it's just something I work on here and there when the feeling strikes me, so I really can't guess when the next part will come out. I think if you follow me on here it will email you next time I post something, if that helps.
I'd say it's a first person POV, any gender protagonist, very very mild horror elements, not really any violence outside of cartoon violence. It's a very mild game that wouldn't really need any age rating or anything I think.
You can go there after Carl if you've never been in it before. You only get the message about it being missing if you've already been there in your current playthrough. You're not going to be able to use the firecrackers until a later day (the game's supposed to have 7 in total, it's just not anywhere near done yet).
Glad you had fun! Yes, there's two pokemon ranger songs in the game so far. Day 0's was "chase" from the 2nd game and the one when you're walking around at night in Day 1 is "panula cave" (which is the ice cave in the first game, yes!)
If your game crashes within 15 minutes or so of me writing this comment, I'm just fixing another bug that was brought up. You can hit "reload"now if you're reading this and it should be okay.
Not on purpose, just fixing a different problem I noticed, sorry about that. (Also, I appreciate you having showed me the exact error code, but now that it's resolved I've hidden your earlier comment just because my file names are embarrassing to me, lol)
Thank you for the nice comment, I appreciate it :)
I am indeed still working on the game, and the next bit is actually coming out soon. You (and anyone else) can check out the little development logs if you want more info about what I've been up to lately.
It is not possible to finish it yet. The full game isn't finished, it is supposed to be 7 days long and the gnome stuff is going to take the whole seven days too. Hopefully I will be able to release the whole thing someday. Talking to the gnome and finding the firecrackers is the only part of it you can do right now.
Oh I'm sorry. The way you get into room 11 when you have Ford with you is you just have to talk to him while standing in room 12. A special dialogue opens up that allows you to go north afterword. Thank you for the nice words :) I'm glad you like the game.
I'm assuming you're running around in the dark by yourself at this point in the game. Normally you just go north from room 12 to get into room 11. But if you have already been in that room when you were walking around with Ford it's not going to let you in again. If you remember getting the firecrackers item then you were already in there.
If you have already made it into room 11 before, when you run into the wall the player should say something like "There used to be a room here! I know there was!"
In the top left corner of the game screen there should be an icon with 3 lines. Click on that, then click on "export saves". That should download whatever save files you have created. Next time you play and want to load them, go up to that icon again and click "import saves", then pick the save file you downloaded from before. It should bring them back, and then you can load them.
A lot more is set to happen in day 1, yeah. Though it's a little hard for me to judge play-time length for reasons that hopefully will become apparent when I choose to release the next bit. Likely all of day 1 will not be released at once because of the length lol.
Hello. I'm happy the game inspires you, but the full game is already written, so I would rather not anyone try to write a continuation of it. I'm sorry. That's not to say you can't write your own adventures with Ford though!
