The entirety of Act 1 can be played here: https://grovedevelopment.itch.io/prowler

Otherwise, thanks for playing our demo, glad you enjoyed it!

The "lurker" is found in the Glistening Stream locale, in a cave that requires rope to enter. 

Better armour can be made by finding recipes in the Savannah, such as a tower right by the fortress entrance.

You're welcome, and good luck finding what you need going forward! There's a fixed location for almost every item out there, it just might be a case of progressing forward

You can find Scaletree Vines before the first "miniboss". They're found wrapped around slender trees, trees that are usually stood alone. Make sure to interact with them to gather them!

There's at least two areas they can potentially spawn in before the "miniboss", and some fixed locations will be available after defeating said miniboss too.

Sorry, we don't have any plans for an French patch at the moment.

As long as you don't plan on dying this year, yes!

Would you mind letting us know the specs of the system you're trying to play the game on? So we can try and figure out if this is a hardware or software issue?

Hah, thanks a lot for the really long and positive review! If you haven't already, we'd love if you'd drop a star review too.

Glad to hear you found so much of the game to be enjoyable and entertaining! And thank you for your feedback and suggestions too, all very reasonable stuff, and we can only hope to improve when next we continue development!

It's just the start of Kivuli's journey, so maybe he'll develop some more with his relationships and abilities...

For now though, thanks again for playing and for the kind words!

Ah, that's a bit of a new one... here's our best guess for now:

Download nw.js v 0.48 from here https://dl.nwjs.io/ 

extract the folder, then drag and drop all the files from the 'nwjs-v0.48' folder into your Prowler directory (where Prowler.exe is). Replace anything it asks for 

Delete 'Prowler.exe / game.exe', then rename the new 'nw.exe' (assuming you're on windows) to game.exe and run it.

We'll try our best, though admittedly RPG Maker isn't the easiest thing to add options to... probably doesn't help we do a lot of things with the engine it's not necessarily meant to do, hah.

But we'll try our best to improve and make things more playable as we go, of course

Thanks for the praise, and for playing through our game despite the performance issues you're having. We really appreciate you giving it a go!

If you're getting an error message, please share a screenshot or type out exactly what it says. We may be able to assist you.

Perhaps, when GROVE has completed development, we will make a full paid access version for Steam. However this is not a guarantee.

Thanks for your question. We're hoping to make Prowler a one-time payment for all subsequent chapters.

The final boss is the final boss... that's the end of the game for now. Thanks for playing through to completion!

If you're missing things, it's stuff that maybe you can craft or cook from dropped items. It's not necessary for the game but something to mess around with if you'd like.

The slime strip can be given to the Wizard, to trigger a scene later with the blacksmith. Keep an eye out for a green blob appearing at the blacksmith's forge.

Each locked scene comes with a hint. Know that as long as you keep a save in the gallery, you can start a new game or return to older saves to unlock things you missed.

If you're really unsure how to find a particular scene, share what the hint message says and maybe somebody can help.

Hey there. When joining our Discord we have a CAPTCHA in place to keep bots out. You should get a DM from said captcha bot, which you'll need to reply to.

If you haven't got that DM, you'll need to go into your Discord settings and 'allow direct messages from server members', then type /verify in our 'verification-chat' channel and it'll send you another one!

Hope this helps!

Thanks so much for playing the game through to completion, it's great to know you enjoyed the whole experience so much!

We'll do our best to keep on improving for the next act! 'til then, thanks again for the praise!

Thanks a lot for the very kind praise! :)

Are you playing the game off of an external harddrive or USB stick? That can cause a rather severe performance bottleneck.

Yes, just luck.

After saving him, the scene may occur at night, but only if you don't resist, or already let him grab you during the rescue...

The scene will also be viewable in the end-game gallery if you missed it.

We haven't got any plans for that ourselves... but there's ways and means out there if it's something you want to do.

It appears when you complete the game. The game will prompt you to make a save. Load that save, and it'll take you to the gallery.

Make sure you have a bow, and have arrows in your inventory.

Open your pouch, select the arrows you want to use with Enter.

Then exit your pouch and make sure to press R to load your arrows up!

As a small caveat, you can't load your weapons inside your tent. And some arrow types require a more sturdy bow to be used.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Sorry, what I should have said was that saves are not compatible between versions. You can try transferring them around but it won't work, and can cause some corruption of the game files too.

The demo contains the first hour or so of the game, the story introduction and a single destination and one enemy type. 

The full version has several hours more content, two more destinations to visit, a bunch more lewd scenes, the first 'act' of the game's story, a gallery for reviewing scenes, etc.

If you want to give the story a trial, or want to get some practice with the controls before playing, the demo is a good idea. But otherwise, the full act one is a much more content and feature rich experience!

You need to download the CN / JP version of the game.

Please try this, and let us know if you are still having trouble.

Wet Clay Clump can be found in the Stream locale. Look for greyish squares on the floor in the southern areas.

(1 edit)

You need to travel to the Swamplands specifically from the "travel menu". It's after the Stream and Savannah in the list.

Also a machine translation Chinese version can be downloaded. It's called "CN / JP version". If you use your itch.io account you should be able to download it without being charged additional money.

You're looking for a schematic inside the serpentfolk's base to make 'flimsy shears'. You can use them to explore new areas of the swamp.

Our 'development update journals' will remain locked on Subscribestar, yes.

We don't see much merit to releasing them publicly later. After several months the information in them may be outdated or conflicting, sue to the variable nature of game development.
And the game projects would be released before the update journals are concluded, which may cause confusion if we're still saying things like "We're just a few months from release" in the journals.

Press your 'esc.' key. You can save from the menu.

Sorry, we're only using Substar at the moment. But everything shown off on the Substar will be implemented in our game projects when they're released.

There's a well to the south of the inn. You need to find your way inside.

There's a gallery when you complete the game.
