yep. Web version is very old as the newer games are too big for the webversion. So if you want to experience the full game in all its glory you either have to download it. Or you can watch the videos of aura exposed on his website. Isn't like playing it yourself, but the 2nd best option if you don't want to download it

Also one more thing for Ferdafs. I really like your game. I just think you should take the time once to pull all of that new content into a more coherent version. As the newer tasks can be all done very early which leads to interactions with characters that these characters technically aren't compfy with in the main plot for each character. And also there seems to be many bugs in the game as well. Some form of tricia phone thing i wasn't able to recreate and then the softlock in the potion task and the generally slightly dodgy way of getting it to run when downloading it via a zip, especially on mac.
But to give you kudos, i find it great that you offer the main game for the pc also for free here on itchio. Though i also want to encourage everyone to check out ferdafs patreon...
Making such a game isn't easy and takes a lot of time, so supporting a good creator is always a better way.
Workaround for the issue in the potion path where morticia and summer just kneel there and you can't do anything else and not progress the story line (Potion Softlock):
On macOS, the game stores its state in a Unity PlayerPrefs file.
Where the save is stored
/Users/yourUser/Library/Preferences/com.Ferdafs.RickAndMorty.plist
In this file, the value "potion_4_0" represents the broken story state. The workaround is to skip it by advancing the state manually. (Aka just skip it)
You need to 1. Close the game 2. Back up that file (copy and paste it into a save folder).
Then you need to run this command in your terminal:
defaults write com.Ferdafs.RickAndMorty potion -string "potion_5_0"
That just changes the value in your save state from saying you are in the potion 4 task to now the potion 5 task. Practically skipping the task.
(optionally just check: "defaults read com.Ferdafs.RickAndMorty potion")
After that it should work fine and you can continue playing the game.
Notes
- This skips the broken potion task
- This is not an ideal fix, but it works
- Tested only on macOS
- Do not modify other values
If you want to see the skipped content, you can watch the corresponding scene (episode 23) on the website of Aura Exposed
ps:
if you are on windows or linux just give chatGPT or your LLM of choice this comment for context and ask it for a corresponding solution for your system
Fix for not bing able to open the game on mac:
1. Use 7zip. It is still the best to unzip to not get the game is damaged notice. Though you have to use the terminal version. Just ask a LLM of your liking on how you download and use the mac 7zip terminal version.
2. Once you downloaded and extracted the game: In the directory of the game in ~/RM4_2_mac.app/Contents/MacOS/
You need to change the file /RickAndMorty to be a executable through this command:
chmod +x /path/to/your/file
You need to change the path to the actual location where you saved the game in so
pathtoyourgame//RM4_2_mac.app/Contents/MacOS/RickAndMorty
That should be all to get it running on mac.
If you have issues. Try sloving it with chatGPT or something.
Just give it this Comment as context and add that you weren't able to get it running on your machine and that you need it to troubleshoot it with you.
For me that was all that was required to get it running though.
