I think I'm stuck. I found the earrings and a Playmonkey Issue #22 while exploring, but I can't do anything with them. There are no missions for me to do and I can't explore further.

PS - managed to get #5 to start the quest by going to her room at night time while she was there. Is the quest start a random, unmarked event? - It's also weirdly convoluted that you can have them with you before the quest starts and are forced to pretend you don't have them yet.

PPS: Now it seems I can't give her the earrings. Whenever I try, protag just says "I should retrace her steps". I can't explore, she has nothing in the questions, other kids have nothing to tell me about it. The quest shows the first 2 points, "ask about it" and "find it" as complete

Other things I've found: If you give a repeat serum to either girl, the game just cuts back to the room you were in

* After making a serum, if the icon of the backpack is still open in the bottom left, right click (back/menu) doesn't work, you have to click the backpack again.

* If you sell stuff and load the game, whatever you sold will remain on the buyback menu, you can "infinite duplicate" stuff this way

* Exploration seems to wait "24 hours" - if you explore in the late afternoon, you can't explore in the morning of the next day because protag "I have already explored today"

* That questions minigame with #2 and #4 doesn't get saved in the savegame either. If you mess up the choices then load your save, whatever you picked previously will be missing, even after closing the game.

* Apparently, interacting with #4 in the night won't properly advance a day, even if it does advance time to early morning

New version has been uploaded, check it out

Check out the new version, should be fixed

I'm aware, the code's been fixed. I'm currently checking what could be the problem with some android players, with the game not even launching. Once I figure that out, I'll release another hotfix

What version is your android OS? What phone model? If you try to run the web version here, does it work?

Ugh, found out the issue for both cases. Blame the coder (me) - got it fixed, but I might wait a bit on more bug reports before uploading another hotfix

It will

EDIT: Fixed, make sure you download the R7a version!

Oh great, the *released* game is bugged, some collisions and timers aren't working for some reason. Finishing stage 1 also went to a black screen. 

Everything works fine when run from the editor, but not from the release .exe.

Gonna work on it ASAP

So, for those that are only following this by here, the "big deal" of my progress thus far:

1. New big animations for the princess are on the way, there are 3 loops done at the moment
2. enemies now have to be raped one time to show up on the gallery
3. Stats screen has been added to the main menu and pause menu

I've been working almost entirely on animations the past few days and am likely to continue so. It's drawing the lineart + drawing the polygons inside godot + setting the proper Z index so the things respect depth + doing the actual animation (and dealing with magical keyframes appearing instead of updating existing keyframes)

Still possible to deliver an update before october is over, we'll see.

This game brought me some traumatic memories from Earthworm Jim

Don't worry, I'm currently working on the next update. Hopefully it'll be ready before october ends. Hopefully

If you decide to go ahead with a personal site, I'd recommend going with neocities

Weird. It seems that the Pause/Menu button on the top left still worked, correct? I really have no idea how or why the other buttons wouldn't work.

Can you experiment playing the web version on your phone, does it work correctly?

What device are you running it on? How is your FPS on it?

On hiatus, so to speak

Starting at stage 1 every time is working correctly, the game not saving your customized knight isn't, which means it's not saving any options either. I'll take a look into my code to see what's going on for Android

So, currently, every place is under construction and, once you masturbate away all your stamina (which is spelled wrong in the game, btw, "stamia"), you softlock yourself.

Brave Sir Knight Windows Release 6

This was a very interesting watch and one of the worst ways to learn that you should always check a contractor's job during execution and on delivery, not way later - something I've indirectly learned from seeing my family hire masons to fix stuff at home.

At least the new main menu screen didn't need any rework, right?

Lovely game, the graphics are wacky and cute at the same time. 

My main gripe is with keybinds used. I don't expect anything to be changed as you've already released a final version and a newer game, but might be useful to keep in mind for your future endeavors (tldr: lack of consistency in UI handling)

* On the menu, Picturebook and when choosing dialogue options, only W/S works. The arrow keys work for in-game movement but not for selecting options in the menu or dialog, it feels weird.

* Right as you start the game, during the initial cutscene, Enter, Spacebar, Z, X, C won't do anything. Someone unfamiliar will have to guess that pressing 'E' or LMB will advance the text. Given that neither left mouse button nor E work on the main menu, that feels "out of place"

* On the game proper, not having W as a secondary jump is a missed opportunity.

* When you press ESC to get shown the control scheme, ESC won't close the overlay, only E does that.

By the way, I was completely surprised because the influx came literally out of nowhere. Some 3 weeks after the last update release, movement was usually on the 15-25 views per day. Maybe itch's algorithm decided to boost me for no good reason? I mean, effectively all the visits that happened came from itch's domains

Can you tell me what device you're running and what's the average FPS you're getting? You can turn on/off the option to show FPS on the settings

Damn, I just got a sudden influx of ~1900 web plays and 17 new followers in less than 24 hours! Did something happen? Was my game featured somewhere?

Can you be a bit more specific? I'm aware that jumping is all kinds of fucked up for some people, which tends to be directly related to FPS.

What version are you playing, web, windows, android? Are you getting consistent 55+ FPS?

Interesting game. I did come across a bug, whenever the girl transforms into the half devil/half angel, she won't transform into anything else afterwards. I have to kill her in order to reset her and transform again.

Your phone probably lacks support for OpenGL3. Godot 4 dropped support for OpenGL2 so I can't target it.

Not yet, just haven't had much time to devote to the next update

What device are you running on? Does the game run smoothly or is your framerate low? Have you tried increasing/decreasing the touch controls' size in the Options menu?

Glad you liked it! Unfortunately, I don't plan on making this game too feature rich, at best I might add 2 more enemies, but don't keep your hopes up for that. Stage rework is in the works, as I'm fully aware how much stage 2 sucks (check the credits button, btw)

As for when R5 will arrive, I can't tell, since I work on this game as a hobby and learning experience; I also have my day job and social life, so free time devoted to this might not come often.

* Framerate is terrible. This isn't due to graphics, because setting the quality to low and resolution to 640x480 doesn't change a digit of frames per second (also, I'm on an i7-7700 with 16GB RAM and GTX1070 with 8GB). On this regard, I need to ask you, have you set up some sort of LOD (Level of Detail) or any sort of Object Occlusion? Both can help with performance, the former should be easier to implement. Another thing, looking at the mirror, it's clear that a good portion of the city shows up mirrored. Is there a full copy of the city being processed just to show on the mirror? As in, if you could "jump into" the mirror, would you get to visit any point of the city?

  * Still on the topic of performance, is every window in every building a "cube"? I've noticed that all interiors look 3D, the angle you look at them is always believable. But if every building is like this, then it's very likely that they're contributing to bad performance, as each window would be 10 extra faces of a 3D object. As many buildings have over 400 such windows, with the taller ones going over 800, that's a lot of extra processing for effectively nothing. I've also noticed that lights are turned on and off at different times for different groups of windows. Depending on how the logic for this is programmed, that could also affect performance. Sure, it looks pretty, but I bet most players would gladly trade that for flat interiors with great performance. That or have the LOD so to not render interiors of buildings farther than 200 meters of the player and simplify buildings farther than 500m.

  * One way to be sure that these buildings are affecting performance would be to create a copy of the city map and remove half of all buildings. A higher FPS would leave no doubt

* [BUG] The very first time the game is run, the "Load" button on the main menu should be grayed out. I can click it on the first run, or after deleting my save folder, and it will "load" to 100%, but the spinning load screen is all that will show. Interestingly, the game appears to be running, as pressing ESC shows the buttons, but not the inventory. M pauses the spinning, but doesn't actually show the map. It's interesting to note that the spin also slows down to match the framerate of the game, so it seems that all the graphics are loaded and being processed.

* Character creation is a bit of a hassle, as the camera is fixed and you can't turn the character around, which means you can't inspect the hair entirely. The close-up camera also puts the head slightly off-center to the right.

* All that empty space in chargen, between the left and right buttons for each part, could be filled with a number to indicate which is being used, like Face 3, Skin 1, Headwear 5, etc.

* For skins 1 and 3 (white, light brown), there's a clear difference in the tone of the face and the rest of the body's tone. For the light brown, the face looks yellowish compared to the body

* The very first click on the Mask shows nothing. Only the second starts looping through the one option or nothing.

* [BUG] If you start the game without ever clicking the mask options, you will start with the mouth mask. If you never change your pants, you will start with the jeans shorts instead of the black pants. Given the point above, my guess is that chargen defaults to the mask (option 1?) and the first click cycles to no mask (option 0?), same for pants.

* You can have a "blank" name, by not inputting anything. At least it doesn't break anything in the game.

* The starting text mentions that, due to being human, you "will need to conceal your identity with a helmet". It seems like you've gave up on this idea, because not only there isn't an option to toggle a helmet or mask, making a character without any head gear makes no difference when talking to girls.

* Text/chatter having no textbox/frame looks very off. You never know if you're in "chat mode" until the letters start appearing. Even a white border with black, half transparent background would make it look much better. I'd also recommend using a smaller font size (my educated guess is that you're using size 24, 18 would probably work fine) to fit in 5 lines of text in that same vertical space.

* [BUG] There's a very high chance that trying to place any furniture at your home will just make it disappear (get under the floor?) - This is significantly easier with 3rd person camera. Low framerate also seems to affect the probability, with lower frames making it more likely to happen. 

* There's no button to go back to the main menu or to quit the game. You have to alt-f4, then open the game again if you want/need to get back to the main menu

* [VISUAL] When you load a game during play, there's a very weird "slingshot" camera pan back to your home

* The aim reticle could be used as a way to tell if the thing the player is looking at is within range of the hookshot. For instance, make it a green cross if the hookshot can land properly.

* Add some sort of visual cue or different graphic to the rocketpack's fuel to indicate that it's enabled. This is useful for 1st person mode, as you're not seeing the trail behind you. A highlight around the bar, or a different color, would suffice.

* When doing deliveries, the arrow in 1st person is wonky, since it aligns with the character's head instead of being "independent". It can often appear to "dance" or point to wrong directions.

* Places that spawn to pick up a delivery lack interior light. This makes the rooms very hard to navigate during late hours

* [BUG] Sometimes, pressing both hookshot buttons in quick succession might "fuck up" your movement. You have to turn off the jetpack to get normal movement again - One way I found to replicate this, is to jump and mash Q/E while moving forward, then try to start circling around (A, S and D movement) where the shots landed. 

* The hookshot works significantly better in 1st person than in 3rd.

* Every exterior staircase currently lacks collision.

* Once you start talking to a girl, the mouse will automatically go to the center of the screen. For someone quickly pressing the mouse button to advance the text, this will almost always end up selecting "I got a gift for you" before the options even show properly - This "mouse auto center window" is extremely annoying while fucking a girl, as it'll highlight "let's stop"

* When talking to a girl, I believe having the 1st person camera focus on the girl's head, instead of resetting to the player's default "zero", would work better

* Sometimes, when you do the question minigame, after you answer, the conversation just ends, without the girl saying her remark, though you still get the affection increase/decrease.

* [BUG] Cassandra (pink cat) and Sara (orange foxgirl) can ask if the player is "A family oriented person". Answering "Yes" will softlock the game, only M works, but ESC, WASD, mouse, everything else stops working. The game will still flow as if nothing happened. I suspect any other girl that uses the same "personality" (same answers to like/dislikes) as them will also have this bug.

* At the Anthro Customization, while editing any girl, pressing M will immediately close the window

* [BUG] If you click "FINISH" during Anthro Customization while the Shader Settings window is enabled, it won't close the Shader window.

* [BUG] The Anthro Customization (once you're editing a girl) doesn't pause the game. I've entered it one time while near Sara, and clicking anywhere started a conversation with her. I had to close the window with ESC, as none of the buttons responded anymore.

* [BUG] Still on the Anthro Customization, Shader settings apply to the girl even if you cancel the editing, whether by pressing M or ESC.

* The button listing the girls in the Anthro Customization are needlessly big. Using 25% of the size would be perfectly sized for any computer screen.

* Anthro Customization could really use a "RESET" button, to get a girl back to her default, and a "CANCEL" to close the window without changing anything

* Talking to the shopkeeper, while browsing the available items, it doesn't show your current money.

* [VISUAL] After inviting a girl home, I've used the "Come here with me" option and the bed. My character was floating a significant height above the bed. This happened a second time when interacting with the sofa, but one time out of 2.

* [VISUAL] If you invite a girl, ask her to dance, then select "Come here with me", she will keep dancing on the selected furniture.

* [BUG] If you get a girl to a furniture and she asks to fuck you, if you choose "Yes", then "Nevermind", you will be stuck in the sitting animation and freecam mode, but you can still move your character.

* [BUG] Some positions, like doggystile and reverse cowgirl, if your aim in 1st person is not straight towards the girl, you won't be able to interact with her in freecam mode

* [BUG] If you end a date with a girl still dancing, the next girl that comes over will have "Stop dancing" among the options.

* [VISUAL] If a date ends while the girl is dancing, she will still be dancing outside. Loading a game during gameplay doesn't fix this.

* Once a girl is invited to your home, she will just walk between corners, going through any furniture without collision.

* During sex, having the camera position reset whenever it touches a character makes no sense. Just make it collide with them, or let it fly through.

* Still on the camera during sex, it's better to have it collide with the walls of your home, rather than resetting its position whenever it gets too far.

* Your home really needs a different light source, or a way to change the light color. Having everything neon pink gets old quick.

* [BUG] The freecam during sex has "infinite acceleration" - if you hold any movement direction, it will keep gaining speed, resetting back to its initial position, but going slightly farther away each time

* The map desperately needs more alleyways. Having entire city blocks' interiors completely sealed to pedestrians, or with only one way in and out, makes no sense. If you need some inspiration on a city map design, just play Cities Skylines or Sim City 4

* [BUG] Some physics are still processed while the game is paused (ESC Menu) - You can see this if you find any bunny girl. Jump, then pause the game while falling or once you land. Depending on where she is in your view, you'll see the ears "float" or "stretch" up behind the menu

* Falling on the water and being teleported back home really sucks, especially during deliveries. I believe you could define a variable on every player jump, getting his X-Y coordinates, and using it as the respawn checkpoint instead.

What's with the main menu tune, it sounds like something you'd put for a sleeping baby or something;

No remapping of keyboard/mouse buttons, or even an in game image showing what key does what;

Does the game start loading as soon as you click Start or Continue? It sure feels like it just hangs in there for 3-4 seconds before actually loading the game;

During the tutorial, at the swimming part, it says that "move mouse to aim" or something like that for aiming your dude while charging. The mouse does nothing, you aim with W/S (up, down);

Screen transitions feel overly long. A 1 second fade-in/fade-out would probably work better;

ESC doesn't work during the tutorial, can't go back to the main menu from there;

Having wives at your camp will consume your boxes. The tutorial never mentions this;

There's no indication of when you can leave the home map. If you do manage to trigger a map transition when you shouldn't, like moving during the night transition, the game will softlock with a black screen;

There's no reason to show the inputs to interact with your hut (sleep, ♥) during the night, as those simply won't work;

Finding resources as complete RNG when going to the right map is terrible game design;

If you start to build a wall and cancel it (R.Mouse button), you won't get your resources back;

Enemies can often hit you without attacking. Their attack collision boxes can trigger while they are blocking or even idle;

Enemies always stagger you, you never stagger enemies. Couple this with them hitting you without attacking, combat feels terrible.

If you are sleeping in your hut when night comes, enemies can still hit you inside the hut.

The progress bar looks nearly invisible during the day. White bar on nearly white background (clouds);

While interacting with the build pile, R.Mouse is the only button that cancels  and closes the small window without doing anything.

NPCs' key prompts get mirrored with them. When a normal caveman comes by, it shows "3" when they're facing left and "E" when facing right. This is more noticeable if you get captured by the big slime, SPACE becomes 3CAPS;

How exactly does the throw logic work? Because if I grab something and throw, it'll be in a upward arc. If I grab and throw again, it'll throw downwards. The next 3 times will often be in a upward arc again;

While fucking the bandit's slave, the audio can desync with the animation quite easily;

Can you elaborate? On what platform are you playing? Are you getting a steady 40+ fps?

Overall, a very interesting game. I do have some grievances:

* When dressing her up, the mouse has to be over the actual image of the piece, clicking on the "empty space" of the square doesn't work for choosing - For instance, for waitress' shoes, the middle of the square doesn't highlight the piece

* Once you open the chest/clothes menu, you have to click the chest again to "close" the sidebar. If you don't, you can't interact with the movement menu. Took me a while to figure this

* After sleeping, the game shows a checkered image (no image?) before loading the background of the place you're in.

* If you visit the pagan monastery first, Raven acts as if she has already visited the first monastery

* After accepting "Holy Sister Raven", the option remains, which just replays the same conversation that opens the Sister Raven job

* Buying all pieces of the Domme outfit unlocks a "dungeon". Where?

* If you fail the first dungeon and try again immediately afterwards, the first fight will have the leftover HP of the fight you lost

Beat tentacle monsters in the desert

Some thoughts of mine, based on the current 1.1.2 (0.1.2?) demo:

* [Bug] I couldn't set the arrow keys on the Keybinds screen, it kept registering them as "Printscreen"; I also couldn't set the E key on any of the actions, I have no idea why it refused to register at all.

* For PC players, having the arrow keys as movement, along with WASD, would make sense

* W for jumping, Q / E, or LShift / E for attack and dash would allow for better one handed play

* The button prompts for interaction and advancing text still show Z / X, even after changing the keybinds

* [Bug] At one point, on the screen after the fries guy, Chiro got "cloned" and raped by both a fox and a wolf. Although both animations were playing, the Sex menu only worked for the second animation. 

* [Bug] On the gallery, Wolfie's sex sprite won't show up, only the CG art on the left. Picking Foxie's animation will still show Wolfie CG, but Foxie's sprite.

* [Bug] On two separate occasions, finishing a sex scene got Chiro stuck running to the left. A third time, she was running to the right instead. I haven't found a way to reliably replicate this yet. Also, when this happens, if you press the direction, her speed doubles.

* Having an option to "Continue" after dying would be great, instead of having to go back to the main menu, then picking Continue there.

* Why is there a ~1s delay after the "got hit" animation ends, where Chiro just idles before you can finally move again?

* Giving some visual cue to Chiro's invul frames would be great

I have no idea how or why the comments section in this game is so full of shitposts, but please, gentlemen, continue

Laughingasm

I didn't change stage design much, though Stage 2 has been annoying me ever since I did it, a very low point of mine.

The thing is that you have to jump and throw the princess all the time, which ends up being a chore rather than even mildly interesting.

Interesting concept, but the same button being used for activating the void and jumping makes some parts needlessly difficult. Even early jumps are tricky because you have to let go of the jump button before the bunny reaches the peak, otherwise you'll simply fall through the box.

Try this version. If the problem persists, under the Options, change the FPS to 59 or 60
