Yup, the phone is 64bit capable but actually uses 32bit architecture. I can make a 32 bit build but I have absolutely no way of testing it, so whether it works or not would be down to chance. I'll make one when I get the chance, and would appreciate it greatly if you could let me know if it works after :)

The APK export is arm64-v8a, What device are you trying to install it on? It should work on anything 64 bit, other than an emulator and possibly a chromebook. 

Kind of yea, except you can't search by value like cheat engine does. It will just give you them all in a big list. You can track the ones that have changed most recently though and renpy doesn't use nearly as many values as other engines so it's always been good enough for me

I really enjoyed this, the animations, UI and sound design are all amazing. The game overall is a lot of fun, the loop is engaging. 

The only thing that didn't really work for me is the progression. You start with 1 table, then go to 2, that's an instant 2x income on your first upgrade. Then the next table gets you 50% extra, than the next 33%, then after that you can get small speed and win rate upgrades. 

That feels kind of backwards to me? Instead of saving ages for a 2x upgrade, get the 10% upgrades first for cheaper. The extra table unlocks in the prestige or something? They are the most valuable upgrades but also the very first one you have access to, which makes any prestige unlocks feel lackluster.

Some actual numbers on the upgrades would be nice too. "Read your opponents better" doesn't really tell me anything. I'm assuming it means better win rates? But I can't be sure.

Everything else would just be better onboarding, how you earn PP etc but as it's an Alpha build that's something I assume would be added over time. 

I know I said mostly bad stuff... but the game is really fun, only spending time typing this because I really enjoyed it :D

What are the chances.....

Is there another way to contact them? I just cant wait 6 months for a reply with this. 

Like all i can do is sit and refresh my emails waiting for this missundetstanding to be cleared.

 Its a life ending accusation and until its gone my anxiety is too triggered to do littrally anything else.

I need this gone

Sorry for the rambly message but thats an accusation that carries prison time where I live SO I AM FREAKING OUT

I posted asking about a quarantine, and I got a reply and an email saying because of an adult game with underage characters? But there aren't any?? The youngest is 21, and LOOKS IT?! Im absolutely losing my mind now that im about to get in trouble for something I havent done?? What do I do????? This is the most serious accusation i've ever recieved in my lifie i dont know what to do?????? I didnt do that?????????? HELP?!?!?!

I've had a game out for a couple of months now, updated it, and it was quarantined within a couple of hours. 

I have 0 idea why this might have happened and I'm not sure what to do. I'm completely stressing out :') It's about the final straw of what I can cope with right now so any help would be REALLY appreciated. 

Please.

Apparently some people see the quarantine and some don't, I don't understand what's happening

Don't bother with him. He is systematically going through every game on this site that uses AI images for the sole reason of leaving negative comments. Recommend you just delete it like the rest of us have done.... I don't think he knows we can delete comments xD

I had alot of people saying they wanted NTR, and alot saying no NTR... so I did both at once :] her next chapter is already written, should be released tomorrow or the day after

Great art, fun little minigames, the writing was entertaining. Overall a really good start to a fun game :)

Seeing as this game uses my phone backend someone asked me to check it because it's been quarantined. I have decompiled every. single. line. and. read. it. all. THOUSANDS of lines of code.... 

It's fine, there's no virus, nothing malicious, nothing that even makes an attempt to do anything a game shouldn't do. 

Thanks itch for making me waste my time -.-

Gave it a play after though, and pretty fun game :D 

Ah, sorry. I posted to the Patreon but not here. 

I'm porting the game into a different engine because I just kept hitting so many engine limitations for things I wanted to do. It's almost done, new story is written, one of the others is completely re-written. Had some issues with writers disappearing so had to basically re-write every story from scratch :D

Hopefully within the next week or two?

Its a fun little idle game, but I do'nt like how the tasks are done. The best way to play is to check task -> Buy correct upgrade once -> Check tasks again -> By upgrade. Which is completely against how you're meant to play an idle game. The 'optimal' play style is fighting the intended play style. 

I'd prefer the usual 'reach level 10 in x', that's tracked retroactively, so you can just go and claim them all at once after a load of upgrades instead of having to swap back and forth between the two. 

Sorry for the incredibly slow reply, been busy with my actual job so this has been on the backburner.

Just leave the copyright in the source code. If you want to add my name in the credits somewhere then feel free, but you don't have to :)

If you want help with editing anything then the easiest solution would be to add me on discord :)

I believe the plan is for small updates every couple of weeks :)

From what the plans say for the other characters very few are going to be NTR, it's just that popular that there needed to be a couple of them. The next release 

I'm going to be adding something so that you can completely disable it, so if there are ONLY NTR routes the story wont appear, and if there is a route that doesn't have it its the only one that will show up (so you can still play the story, the NTR options will just be completely gone). I know some people REALLY hate it.

I just mean it's a completely separate app to the phone system itself. It will output an RPY file that's pre coded to be used with my renpy pone system. 

It doesn't make any difference to the actual phone system itself, it's purely a way to speed up creating conversation and being able to visualize branching dialogue.

The phone itself comes with ways for the player to change the colours of the phone in game, but if you want to change them manually you'll need to edit the file directly. This purely creates an RPY containing the conversations and branching dialogue pre coded. 

I just mean outside of a label do 

default var_kps_new_mc_name  = "anything"

Then in the label when you set the name do 

$ var_kps_new_mc_name  = name they picked

I just have a habit of defaulting things outside of labels because renpy has some pickling issues that... are annoying.... Thats all

I just realized I gave a full breakdown of how to do it in my reply to someone 2 comments before this one :D Its still there if you want to go read that one

phone_icon_overlay is defined in phone_gui.rpy. I must have left a reference to it inside the actual phone.rpy... and....


Yep, delete line 3410 and line 3411!

And make sure you remove it from ikps_phone_home_back_action in phone config too if youre not using my GUI

If it keeps happening just create a screen with that name that does nothing, it wont break anything ;D

As for changing the name.... thats the _title of the phone shell when you open a contact, or on the contacts screen. You'd need to set the name they choose to a variable, and on the chat screen run a check when _title is set, if _title == 'mc', set it to the name that was chosen instead. line 1991 I believe.....

 Same thing for the contacts screen when it shows the names for the contacts, which happens at 2667.

Those lines might be off a little, I'm not sure if the version im looking at is the currently uploaded one, let me know if it's wrong and i can look properly

I have been working on a release that does this plus a load more stuff but I've been roped into making 3 different games so my time is... limited rn :') 

No problem, and thankyou. If you get stuck feel free to send me a message on discord

So every screen uses the phone_shell screen. So shrink the game area around the phone_shell, and then go into your screens.rpy and modify all the screens to use that phone_shell. It wouldnt be *easy*, if youre not good with screens specifically it could take alot of trial and error to make sure everything fits.

You would need to redo everything from the quit screen, to the save screen, to the help screen, etc. 

Yep, someone is doing exactly that with it as we speak :)

(Also, the only stupid question is one that you never ask)

Why is this game tagged idle? What am I missing

Ohhhhh, no, it will error if you leave it out. The button display logic needs to be changed. I have done it, and its planned for the full release, but I'm not sure how long that will take. I'm currently making a separate 'premium' release that is more 'game ready' that the current one with a LOAD more features, and that's one of them. I think it will take another hundred hours or so.

What do you mean the jump argument optional?

They already do accept vars! Examples of how is in test_char_4 :)

you just need to use the actual dict format and not the shorthand when you make the line that uses a var, and then f string the message

1-  Yep, the whole conversation is stored in conversation_name['all_dialogue'], so by extending that conversation with a conversation list it will be there as an already had conversation.  So mc_whoever['all_dialogue'].extend({"mc":"Hey"},  {"whoever":"Hey"}) will add those messages, in that order, whenever its run. Want them at the start then just run it right after the start label (the other option is to just use the function to send a message a few times before the game propperly starts, easier but would mean more writing)

2- Not currently an option, it's been something I've been looking at. The code is all there to make it possible, its just changing how the button is displayed. 

3-That would need an entirely new screen, it's not something that's currently planned. 

4-The name dependency was for simplicity, without it creating conversations would require about 3 times more code than they currently do. You would need to assign every conversation to the phone from every direction it can be viewed from etc.  The simplest solution would be to change the title of the conversation screen to show whatever the player entered instead of 'mc' if it should be 'mc'.  So just adding this check in the main ui, the bit in between the two ###

And the same thing in the contacts list:

Then default var_kps_new_mc_name anywhere, just so anything, or an empty string, then after they have chosen the name just run $ var_kps_new_mc_name = their_chosen_name

Then wherever that name is displayed on the phone it will be changed to the new one :)

  So if now run this at the start:

Opening Sarah's phone in the demo now shows this:

Do you have a discord? Best place to talk about what you want it to do :)

Its in the wrong language, wont let me change it, cant play

It doesn't run in the background when in browser, which is kinda detrimental for an idle game. You have to have it in focus for it to run at all

So that part about being able to create one with 0 members, complete lie, it will crash, I was just testing it. If you do want to do that, replace:

name = f"{member_part}-{suffix}"

with 

if len(members) > 0:

            name = f"{member_part}-{suffix}"

        else:

            name = get_store_name_of(current_dialogue) + f"-{suffix}"

THEN you can create one with 0 members :D 

Sorry I just noticed you'd messaged again. When you create the conversation using the kps_create_conversation() only add them as a member, then use the add member function (its in the newest release) to add your mc to it later, it will instantly appear on their contact list :) You can create a conversation with 0 members if you want, theres nothing stopping you, but the second a member name == a phone name, the conversation will appear

New version I just released will make this much easier now, and has an example in the demo :) 

Theres (currently) no function to do this. You can use the renpy function for closing a screen, the name of the screen the conversation happens in is called 'dynamic_scrollable_text', add '_group' if its a group chat, but this *may* cause issues. Ill add a function that does it next update :) 

If youre making a new conversation you use the kps_build_conversation, and each member of it you use kps_member (or member if its a version before i added all the kps prefixes)
