Do you have the red orb in the first place? To recharge it you need to use it from the menu like a potion.

The patreon version isn't done yet either, but it's ahead by about a years work. The versions are already quite different so I can't guarantee that the save will work in the newer build. Have you beaten the Fire and Water (1st floor) yet? You can check out the walkthrough to see if there's anything you've missed.
if the music plays and you can use the menu that's just a "fade out" black and you should be able to move around even if you can't see anything. To reset the screen you could try to find an exit to another area in Pine Island in the dark and reset the "fade out" when you enter that area.
Did you use an older save from another build?
Hmmm. This is the first time that I've heard of this happening. Might be something on your computer that can't handle the game. I'm not savvy with that kind of stuff, I guess my best bet is to google the problem and see if other people have had similar problems. The engine is "RPG maker MV" so searching something like "rpg maker mv computer freezing" might give answers.
To Maneland quest is the main quest of the game so it's WIP. The Food on the Table one is for the pirate ship. You can find how it can be done in the Walkthrough.
Here's instructions on how to play Small On Top on Android with Joiplay!
Written by faffing_minotaur
Step 1: Download the the JoiPlay app (.apk file)
Joiplay is not on google play, download the most up to date version (free) from joiplays patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/joiplay
Latest version as of 2024-03-05: JoiPlay 1.20.32, https://mega.nz/file/Hr5XRSgS#IU-1rw7aBsgOqlTmPkdVCmodTqXRN7P9L1Az-YY5sLA
Step 2: Download the RPG plugin (needed to play 'small on top')
On the same joiplay patreon page, download the latest RPG Maker plugin. This allows joiplay to start games created with 'RPG maker'. https://www.patreon.com/joiplay
Latest version as of 2024-03-05: RPG Maker Plugin 1.20.53, https://mega.nz/file/OqgF3AaY#P0t6Rwtu1wobHbqotd7tAWbOXTKE-xMj0I5bbqVVMsw
Step 3: Install the .apk files
You will have two .apk files from the previous steps in your download folder.
Android application .apk files are similar to windows .exe files. Open your downloads folder (using the 'files' app or chrome downloads), and start the file called joiplay[some_version].apk file
If you have not installed an .apk file outside google play before, your device might warn you about opening unknown files. Press 'enable installing from unknown sources'
When JoiPlay is installed, install the RPGMPlugin-[some_version].apk download in step 2 the same way.
Step 4: Download 'Small on top [version].zip' from itch / patreon
Open your downloads folder, select the 'small on top.zip" and select "Extract". (Will load a a couple of seconds)
Step 5: Install 'small on top' in Joiplay (aka press "ok" on a lot of prompts)
Launch the JoiPlay app, and accept the Terms & Conditions & privacy policy
If you have android 13+, JoiPlay asks for permission for notifications. It's not required to accept.
When it asks for storage permissions, press "Allow" on all 4 prompts. (If the first prompt appears again, thats a bug, close the application (recents menu -> swipe away), start joiplay again and press 'ok' again.) A window will appear asking for "All files access". Find "JoiPlay" in the list and turn the toggle on, and then press back.
When the permissions are granted, you see a white screen with a plus in the upper right corner, press that, then "Add Game" -> Choose -> /Download/ -> Small on Top -> Small on Top (again) -> Small on Top (again again) -> Game.exe .
Joiplay will ask what you want the game name and version name to show up as inside Joiplay, go with the default "Small on top", and whatever you want to call the version you downloaded
Skip adding an icon for the game, use the default icon & press next.
Step 6: Play the game.
Press the icon "Small on top". The game will now finally start.
Press the small arrow icon at the bottom of the screen to get on-screen buttons you can use in the game to move / press the menu.
The walkthrough can help you.
The magician is on the 2nd floor of Fire Dungeon and the tailor is in the forest where you can fight the crocodile and the bear, after Logtown.
