That would mean it is bugged, because it doesn't change, ever.

The other ways are not more lucrative, though. They're horrifically difficult.

Also, if the goal of the game is for you to play it and no one else, don't fucking publish it.

Okay. So based on the things that do and don't cause mental loss, apparently the MC always, regardless of player choice, hates the following things:

1. Not being in control

2. Public exposure

3. Sex

It's extremely weird to me given the choices that are available that they wouldn't impact these personality constants whatsoever, so I'm wondering if this isn't actually a bug?

Uh... the main source of income is definitely sex. I don't know if that was intended to be the main source of income, but it's far and away the easiest.

And, well, what I was missing is not losing Mental by clicking to go places most of the time, because nearly all of the random events cause mental loss if you aren't wearing clothes.

I think I have some confusion regarding the goal of this game... Especially if you weren't expecting players to acquire income primarily via sex.

Wait. What jobs? I never found any jobs. Maybe I was just looking in the wrong place, but I didn't even realize there were supposed to be jobs.

EDIT: Okay, well, in order to try to find jobs, I did something I had never tried before and actually left the apartment with clothes on... which apparently gives access to like 90% of the game that you otherwise can't access without clothes on. Still never found any jobs, though.

I mean, not nothing -- it has been fixed for many people. Just not for everyone apparently.

Yeah, I'm now getting this error too on this update.

I know the dev said they won't be posting a patch list until the update is complete, but it might be beneficial to have a log of them if these mini-updates are causing bugs.

The description says "The romanceable characters you encounter will all be male."

There's a Level 4 TEC advantage? I've only ever gotten up to 3. Didn't know 4 existed.

I'm certain that it is a bug, though I'm unsure if it actually affects anything beyond flavor text.

Yeah, it is odd. It doesn't even affect any stats or other choices.

I'm guessing you mean 2-D? There's no 2-0, but maybe the D looked like a 0 to you. If that's what you meant, the answer is no. He dies regardless of which choices you make.

A full spells build without Incantation Headband?? Can't say I've ever thought to try that. Hell, I use Incantation Headband even on some primary physical builds because it allows me to sometimes passively rebuy utility spells without wasting actions on breaking purple gems. I definitely always use it on primary spell builds. I consider it easily the best item in the game. (Granted, I only have the free version, not the Patreon version.)

I mean, obviously your damage with this build is mainly physical. But with every single skill being a magic skill, I think the extra purple gems are definitely worth the +3 MAG being minimally effective.

Huh... I don't know the answer, but the question caused me to try to look it up. I've probably missed a lot of content this way -- I typically don't try to look at other content in the middle of a quest, but apparently this one requires you to start Clash of Corporations but not complete it.

Hm... there was an update though. The itch client notified me of it, and I downloaded the new version. Wonder what that was about? If you didn't update anything, maybe just a glitch?

I'm pretty sure the only character who ends up in cells and mentions betrayal is Galiano, who was there since the first version.

There is -- it's the mythicheroes link at the bottom of the game description -- though it's missing a lot and some of it may be from older versions.

EDIT: The text of that link is the the correct URL, but the hyperlink itself goes to the wrong place. So, copy the link text instead of going to the link directly.

I'm not sure what the most recent update was supposed to be -- it's not in the changelog -- but I'm guessing it was supposed to be a bugfix? What was it trying to fix? I still see the same bugs.

I could even try to unpack the asar file, but I have zero JS experience so I'd probably just get confused :P

Though... now knowing the core is likely JS, it might be more likely an object issue than a variable issue.

Managing Mental stat is extremely difficult... There are tons of ways to decrease it and very few ways to increase it, which all take a lot of time and are random events. I've already needed to reboot once... speaking of, I apparently need to pay 1000 credits after a reboot, but I don't see a way to do that? Is it because I don't actually have 1000 credits to pay? It doesn't appear to be locking me out of anything, though.

EDIT: Ah, there are Perks to help with managing Mental. I just hadn't hit Level 1 yet, so I didn't know about them. Still, if I already had a reboot before hitting Level 1... seems really hard to manage. Also... I can't tell if Servant Mentality is, uh, actually doing anything... I assume the gain is just lower than the decrease, but they're not delineated, so it's impossible to tell.

EDIT 2: Okay, owing money just locks you out of using the clinic.

I don't know the exact issue, but I think I have an idea of where to look: I believe there's an issue with variables used for character names. Some characters don't have names but should, some have repeated names, and some use the wrong name variable in the text.

I know you said you are a programmer (and I am not), so it seems odd that it would be this simple to solve, but... it almost seems like you have a single variable repeatedly being reassigned new values instead of a new variable being generated.

Oh! If the NPC doesn't have a name, the text uses your character's name for their actions. I think that's what was confusing me about saying the wrong actions/body parts.

I  did find more bugs though.

1. Wise is the only available personality option.
2. Social actions with enemies just cause you be defeated instantly.

No, not genitals, body parts in general. They just say the wrong part of the body.

Also, as far as I can tell, the only thing fixed was Energy. (EDIT: Solving the Overwhelmed issue required a restart, but  is fixed now.)

I think I've determined a few things:

1. Purity and Energy don't do anything.

2. Arousal can increase but the triggers for its decrease don't always work, and you remain Overwhelmed at all times if your Arousal has ever reached maximum regardless of its current value.

3. There are for some reason always three people in sex scenes, rather than what is probably the intended up to three, and if there's only one physical person it will slot in nonexistent people with the same name who can't properly be interacted with.

4. NPCs sometimes just use the wrong words for body parts/actions in sex scenes.

As far as I can tell, the sex function is extremely bugged... if that's not the case... I really need an explanation of how it's supposed to work. I can't even tell you what's bugged and what's not because none of it makes any sense to me.

I think this is a bug? You can fight the Adult Slime and craft the items Fern tells you about before talking to Fern, but the quest doesn't progress at all before talking to her. The quest also never tells you to talk to her, so I had to figure that out on my own.

Also, once you bring the samples back to Arthur, he just says "come back in a couple days" every single time regardless of how many days it's been... even tried doing nothing but resting for two full days so I'm definitely not speaking to him, and he still says the same thing. I mean, if it's just not completed yet, that's fine... except that you also can't complete any other quest while Arthur refuses to talk to you.

Oh, another thing. There are still five regions on the galaxy map that are question marks. Are all five of those not implemented yet? Or have I just not figured out how to get there, at least for some of them?

You get it by progressing through the University questline on Harmonia. AFAIK it's impossible to avoid if you're caught up on that questline (it's unfinished, but it does go past healing).

Okay, so I'm now at a point where I'm relatively certain I've done everything that isn't locked out by my prior choices. However, there is still potentially a lot that I get the impression I should be able to do even now.

For one, my crew respect is -60. Now, it did take me a while to figure out how to get it beyond -40, but getting it to -60 from there was extremely easy. That said, there's reference to scenes that are only possible with -80 crew respect. I don't have a clue how to get to that point.

While it's obvious that I'm not domming Master X as a sub bottom with negative respect, I was under the impression it's still possible to actually meet him. I never have. I don't know how to do that. I've met Levi, but not Master X. The scenes are now just cycling in a completely anachronistic manner. Is it actually not possible for a sub bottom?

These are the major ones... there's still a fuckton I haven't been able to do, but as far as I can tell, everything else either is locked to high respect/dom/top, requires different important character decisions, or is just not implemented yet.

The upcoming Patreon build is for any paid Patron who has ever supported on Patreon, whether current, in the past, or later whenever you start supporting.

I think I may still be unclear on one thing. Does your class selection also affect which subset of your chosen element's magic skills go in the pool?

I don't see how I could have phrased it any more clearly than I did. I always try to be as unambiguous as possible.

That's not a separate issue from the OP. It's fucking exactly the issue. Don't try to tell me what I did and didn't say. You fucking disgust me.

Okay. FULLY convinced now this account was hacked. Behavior is sudden, unexpected, and utterly nonsensical, hasn't posted in five years, and didn't post this on X despite having a link to the X account. I'm not sure how to report a hacked account, but I'll go ahead and report the game.

Well sure, but the minimum area respect total value (always -100) is not the same as the threshold delta for an individual action (seemingly -1 to -3 for most actions, but some are -12 or even -24 or -36). It's more likely that the dev just hasn't finished including all the actions for every region.

How about you properly include a description of your fucking game so that people will want to play it? As is, this just makes me fucking hate your guts and never want to play any of your games.

...What on Earth?

There is no description. I have no idea what this is. It's supposedly a parody of... what? You didn't tell us. You didn't even tell us who these "rights holders" are. A Google search for Levinfire yields no explanation.

You have two other games on here and been here for a long time. There's no way you didn't understand the necessity of a description here. What, did someone hack your account?

Hm... maybe it's because I have negative crew respect, but I can't reject anyone, so... I can't pursue anyone exclusively. Maybe you need to go positive respect route to attempt to pursue one person.

I did manage to accidentally reject Snake, but that's just because the option is worded very, very, very strangely. I thought I was entering a business relationship involving sexual favors, but apparently,  I was actually removing all business options and making him despise me. Upon looking back on it, I... think this is amatonormativity in action. I decided I don't want  a romantic relationship, because I don't, but the general populace considers sex to be romantic for some reason (it isn't).

Hm, does losing to Bradley again affect crew respect or just area respect? It was actually pretty difficult for me to figure out how to get from -38 to -40 crew respect and I'm wondering if I missed opportunities to farm negative crew respect.

EDIT: Oh, I can still repeat it even though the dialogue makes no logical sense after defeating the Warlord. Still reduces area respect, but doesn't seem to change crew respect.

EDIT again: Seem to have hit the limit, though. I'm at -24 area respect and don't really know how to decrease it any more.

Huh, I actually had no idea some actions were on an "every other time" cycle. It seemed like everything was either "once only" or "every time, up to a limit." Are there any other actions like this?
