Hey and thank you very much. Glad you're enjoying it. Yeah currently we're picking our musical moments to be few and far between. Might change a bit in the future, but if we do it, it's probably thing that we do more to when we reach the actual full release.
Ideally we'd get custom made stuff, but doing that during our regular development cycles is near impossible, given how shortly before release the scenes come together.
Yeah, would be pretty nice. At least some basics, y'know. Blocking certain phrases, blocking links or completely new accounts, as you said. Had the same spam come in 6 times in the last 24 hours. Exactly same phrasing, exactly same link. Could have been solved easily in this instance, but instead I'm having to play whack-a-mole...
Not back to normal, no. Payment processors are still being little bitches, and so for example, Conway and other NSFW games currently can't accept donations if we want to be visible on the site.
Which in turns also means less income for itch itself, which is not great as they are the ones paying for the hosting of our files. So I do want them to have their share of the donations that came in.
They'll all get their time if Conway survives through this, don't worry. :)
And i don't know if it's the background really. Problem is that itch has provided absolutely zero communication at this point. So it's just impossible for us to tell just what the criteria are. And the list they added to their FAQ is about as vague as it can get.
Yes, it's absolutely crucial.
Do I know if it'll work? No.
But do I know that losing itch as a place for adult visual novels to call their home would be devestating for many of them? Absolutely.
A ton of people find games via itch's discovery. So even if things stay with games being shadowbanned as they are now it could absolutely wreck what little finance sustains many of these projects. WIth fewer people finding them, and thus of course fewer people who might decide to support them.
Hey,
only place that involves randomness is the dice game outcome. So it should always be the same as it just checks for certain values and we've not heard of similar issues before.
So perhaps some choice was picked different and that big was enough to shift it to a different outcome.
No guide though, no. The Discord's got a spoiler chat where occasionally you have people asking for some scenes and getting answers for that, but we don't plan on making a guide anytime soon (if ever).
Ah alright, yeah you indeed caught a bug with the image not being unlocked! It's fixed for Update 19. :)
As for the Nomax one, it's a variance of the bioluminesence that starts back during the day 2 meeting. You can be promised a drawing during it which then can be resolved during the bioluminescence scene.
Hey hey and thank you for the kind words first of all. Also just as a warning to others, further on in the post I'll be mentioning some spoilers. But should be beyond the fold-out cutoff.
And yeah, I'm glad the lizard's got his appreciators :D I feel like he's very much the character you either love or he annoys you to death. Which is fine, he's written like that for a reason after all and we wouldn't want Jules to be any other way.
And yeah, I can see why you might feel a disconnect in that scene, though do keep in mind that your mindset and that of James in that moment is likely quite different after what he had to deal with in the days prior. For as much as we try to have him reflect the player, in some situations there are just cisrcumstances that are difficult to induce in a player. Such as that grinding down of James over the last couple of days at that point.
Then as for the unlocks. You don't have Julian's last one? But that is the scene you just talked about...? If you played that one then you should have it unlocked.
Sam is the same Bioluminescence scene, just with you being closer to Sam.
As for the Nomax one, it's easily the trickiest one to get in the game. So no surprise there: You have to basically pursue both Nomax and Julian. Skip your first day of work to spend time with Nomax and make sure to bed him. Later, make sure to win the dice game with Julian and Wolf, and ask Jules for an "anatomy lesson". During the following scene, when Julian asks if he could spend time with Nomax, give him your blessing. Later, choose to leave Conway instead of trying to talk Arthur into letting you stay, and then go spend time with Nomax. You'll find that he and Jules were getting acquainted and get to join in.
Hmm, very odd. Though without actually knowing what it looks like, and me not being able to reproduce it, there isn't much I can do I'm afraid. I'll ask around and see if anyone else has a similar problem, but yeah I've never heard of it before.
I guess all we could try is a trusty redownload and see if that does anything.
