Typos and minor grammatical errors:

I am not looking for reports on these at this time. I will continue to work with beta testers and readers to find as many of these as possible, but find it most effective to work with a small group of curated testers than get reports from the entire community. Thank you for understanding!

All Other Errors

Please be sure to post your system, what chapter you were in when you encountered the error, and any major actions recently taken (such as having just made a choice or clicked a glossary entry.

Please also let me know if you attempted to: Rollback, Ignore the error, or Reload the game.


Traceback Errors:

This is when the game breaks and gives you a grey screen with a bunch of text on it. Please post the entire trace back (either a screen cap or the text. These can be incredibly difficult to find unless I see the error text.


Everything else:

Please just give as much info as possible about the error because this will really help me either find it or try to re-create it.

I am aware that all the glossary links for "Terran" are currently broken as well as the one for Virtuoso.

I'll push a fix out for this at some point! (There' s just a small typo in the screen name)

That's really strange - can I get a bit more information about what's happening? After clicking on the .exe, does it give an error or just simply not open?

I'm aware of an issue in Yren's path where MC's skin tone randomly switches. This is a holdover from testing the CG and a patch will be going out very soon!

Hi <3 in episode 3, chapter 5, Daaz's route his surface side sprite switches to his inside the ship sprite after we see the artwork of the ancient stones. It switches back to the surface side sprite as they're going down the slope.

Hi, I got this traceback error when I tried to kiss Yren in chapter 5. It lets me rollback and select the other choice, but it doesn鈥檛 let me ignore it. I鈥檝e reloaded the game and redownloaded it, but it didn鈥檛 fix anything. Also, I have the Windows version.

```

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

Exception: DynamicImage 'cgs/yren/ch5/yrenkiss_wil_upper_[persistent.yrenkiss_haircolor]_[persistent.yrenkiss_hairstyle].png': could not find image. ('cgs/yren/ch5/yrenkiss_wil_upper_silver_hair8.png')

Thanks for letting me know. You won't be able to get the CG using hair 8 at the moment - but it should work with a different style.

The file was misnamed as hair9 instead of hair8 so Renpy is searching for hair8 and not finding it. That's the issue. Until I push out a patch, playing with hair 8 in silver will unfortunately break at Yren's CG.

I'll push out a patch soon but it'll probably be about 15-20 minutes before it shows up!

So I discovered a continuity error with a LI outfit in chapter 3 during the scene following making a choice to go to the garden from choice Menu 7.  The CG shows Asher in a long sleeve black shirt, and during the rest of the scene he is in a shorter sleeved red one.  Hopefully this is helpful!

I'm using the mac version, if that's relevant.

Typically it won't be unless it's something related to the look of the sprite! That's the only time the content you see will be dependent on the sprite you have. <3

Ha ha. I actually caught this during a recent test and it should be fixed in the Chapter Six update! 馃ぃ Don't know how testers missed that one (or how I missed them pointing out it out which is honestly more likely!)
