Yes! Right now it's available in physical form via Pizza Pranks Tape Club: https://pizzapranks.com/product/slasher-u-act-1-by-suiteddevil/

I'm also working on creating an alternate option to purchase Slasher U directly from its website (https://slasheru.neocities.org/) as an emergency measure!

Resolved!! Thank you so much!! <33

Hello! Sorry for double-posting, but I just wanted to know if there's a timeline on payouts? My longest one has been pending for 18 days with 3 total payouts pending, and I haven't had a reply from anyone at itchio regarding payout delays or any other support since the NSFW de-indexing on July 24th. I rely on my game to pay my rent, have consistently been doing payouts for the past 2 years, and I'm worried I won't be able to access the funds already in my account. Thanks for your time, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Ticket #300866 - sent August 7th

Ticket #295983 - sent July 24th

Hi there! Looking for an update on 3 payouts; the longest of which has been in review for 14 days: Ticket #300866

Thank you for your time!

I totally get that! Right now I'm waiting to see if itchio will reverse its new policy (fingers crossed). The version of Act 2 that's up here is still in Alpha, & Steam's a bit more strict about how finished Early Access/Alpha games have to be, so I'm not 100% on whether the date will get moved unfortunately - but I CAN say that if you wanna play it safe on not doubling up, I'd wait for Steam since that's a sure thing re: Act 2 coming out (if that makes sense!)

It could be the dialogue box save bug that's been plaguing the game! Try reloading an Act 1 save from right before you imported, save once again without standing near an NPC/object, and then THAT save should work properly (lmk if not, I'll take another look at it!!)

aha you're the first one to point it out!! It's been added to the buglist for fixes for next build :D

Adding this to the list for the next build!!

Here's a list of cheat codes (it's on my Patreon for free!) https://www.patreon.com/posts/105569211

Thank you!! :D

Fixed this one in the newest build!! Lmk if it's still giving you grief :D

Ah, that's a part of incomplete Act 2 leaking into Act 1! Did it start happening after the Act 1 end bumper, or before?

An android/mobile is def something I wanna do in the future!! It's tricky due to the engine & controls but it's something I'd love to do if I can figure it out!

Yes! I just did a sale for Spring and there's gonna be another sale mid-Summer around July! (:

Yesss I'm so glad!!! Enjoy :D

Hey again! So I *think* I might have a potential fix - if you pop open the Slasher U folder and open Game.cfg (which should open as a text file), change where it says "SEandBGM=3" to "SEandBGM=2". Fingers crossed!!

Oh that's interesting, you're the first to report this one! Have you tried running it through the 32 bit sound drivers? I'll mess around with it on my roommate's Win10 machine to see if I can figure it out!

edit: Just realized that first sentence might've sounded sarcastic, so I wanted to clarify I do in fact find rare bugs legitimately interesting 😅

Thank you!! :D And not quite yet (SPOILERS: it *will* be in Act 2!) The professor doesn't quite reveal everything in Act 1, but if some of his chat options are still locked after going through everything else in-game, that might be a bug - lmk!

Got it, I'll take a look at it!

You can get out of the forest by picking the "Wanna go back to campus?" option when you talk to Hex!

Thank you so much!! :DD Just sent your Steam key by email!

Hey hey! They do, but I'm having trouble with itchio giving out keys, so feel free to email slasherugame@gmail.com with a screenshot of your Games for Gaza bundle purchase w/ your username and I'll send you your Steam key!

If you fail on the first lockpick attempt the lock jams, you can reload a save to try again! Your lockpick chance starts at 50% but there's ways to get it higher by finding books (one in Act 1 and one in Act 2)!

Hey! You can only take one person to Prom at a time (but you can reload a save to take different people each time), and the only faster way to make bucks is either entering a cheat code or finding the exploit vent in the A/V editing dungeon (it gives out 2 to 5 bucks infinitely if you spam the space bar at it)!

Gotcha, adding it to the bug list! (Almost definitely tied to the ginger ale thing too, good catch!) and thank you! :D

Thank you so much! + thank you for the bug list!! Added all these to the fix list for next build!

Definitely agree on the suggestion, as well - gonna take another look at efficiently balance the dialogue for poly relationships next build!

Gotcha, added all the above to the buglist! Alas, you're right, this universe can only contain one Tate at a time :')

It's non-linear! Basically the events/plots trigger based on the characters' feelings for you/how you interact with them, so it can get a little random at times! Once you pick up a plotline it'll unfold as you go along, so hopefully it feels a little more organic. There's an unlock guide here too with info on how to trigger most of the main characters' unlocks: https://suiteddevil.itch.io/slasheru-act1alpha/devlog/536712/walkthroughhints-ac... (also thank you!!)

Got it, adding both the above to the bug list!

Update: I uploaded another version of v6.0009 Complete that should (hopefully) work! I think it's got to do with Sonoma not working with the Mac wrapper I use, so I updated it to a Windows 10 base (which worked on my Catalina Mac OS machine) - lmk if it's still broken, and I can try something different! (Also thank you so much for your patience!)

Got it, I'll check it out & update as soon as I have a fix!

Gotcha, which version of Mac OS are you running? I've uploaded the previous Mac Complete build in the meantime (6.0006) until I fix the file on v6.0009 - let me know if that one doesn't work, and I'll try a different fix!

Heya! Just double checked and (I think) you found a bug on the Mac Complete version! I just reuploaded the ZIP & it should be working now!

Gotcha, adding this to the fix list for next build! (If only the universe could handle infinite Hexes :') )

Post your ACT 2 bugs HERE!! If you could include:

• The version number of your game (top left, where it says v6.0002, etc)
• What you were doing leading up to the bug

I'd be much obliged!! <3333 THANK YOU SO MUCH for catching these bugs, Student Disembody!!

Not entirely! I have plans for a Mike/Sawyer threesome minigame/potential full poly arc locked down as potential future bonus content - I'll be doing something special for 5k & 10k downloads, plus (hopefully) a second and final crowdfunding campaign for Act 3 a year and a half from now, so there's a chance that content will show up somewhere along the line if/when I can figure out how to slot it in!

Gotcha, I'll hunt the bug down! After Hex does his breakup dialogue, does it still say you're dating him if you bring up the Tab menu/Character Info screen?

Sweet, thank you for the reports! I'll be adding these fixes to the next build (should be out in the next couple days!)

It's up the big stairs on the left-hand side of the yard below the coffee shop/across from the entrance to the forest!

Totally (and thank you!)! I'm planning a proper Mac port in the upcoming months, but in the meantime you can actually get it to run on a Mac using PortingKit (https://www.portingkit.com/)!
