Game Breaking Bug Windows Version | Mac Version Upload is Corrupted

Hello!

I've recently been playing through the new version and have encountered a game breaking bug after the fourth colosseum fight (first save of Chapter 3).  

  1. The save it prompts you to do will be corrupted and will freeze during loading.
  2. You can load from the autosave thankfully, however after visiting any 'area' in the game (except for dungeons) you will be prompted to save again and the game will freeze after saving.

I finally found an error message when visiting the Inn directly after the fight. You can dismiss this error message and keep playing, but once you leave the Inn you're prompted to save and the game freezes.

Well nvm I just realized I reached the end of the demo. It would be nice to add in a screen before Ch 3 loads in that indicates this, though I understand it's probably not a priority. 

I did end up getting the Patreon version and there is a slight bug I found, though I doubt may will encounter it.

  1. Do the steps I mentioned above and receive the error I posted in the itch.io demo
  2. Load your save into the Patreon version
  3. Ch. 3 loads and the conversation with Lef occurs
  4. Go to the Inn and you cannot advance. 
    1. This happens because I believe the game has already tried to load the scene mentioned in the error and it does not try to re-load the scene

Thankfully I had a save right at the start of Ch 3 I was using for testing and was able to revert. However, if the end user doesn't have a prior save this could make them have to restart from the beginning.

Chapter 3 shouldn't start at all in the demo. The game just ends after the ending credits. I don't know how you managed to get to a screen where Chapter 3 even begins in the demo, but you somehow got to the fourth coliseum fight? That in itself must be an error, because you shouldn't have been able to get that far.

Yes, as MarloweC said, you shouldn’t even be able to start Chapter 3. The current public version should play the teaser video at the beginning of chapter 3 and send you back to the title. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone running into this bug, as I don’t think I’ve updated the public version with anything new that would change that.

If more people run into this issue, then I’ll look into it. But as you said, it is not of high priority right now.

Hm... where did you download the version you were playing? The only official demo is here on itch.io, however, it appears there are other versions available online from crawling sites. I did discover a version online freely available that appears to be the Patreon demo from April of 2024, which should never have been public and also isn't the latest version.

Hey guys, thanks for the responses! No worries on the bug I totally understand it's probably a unique situation. 

I downloaded the demo game from itchio, however one thing that could contribute to the bug is, since the Mac version is corrupted on extract, I downloaded the windows version and am using Whisky to play it on a silicon based Mac. Occasionally when I play games like this I do encounter bugs (visual bugs are most common), however this is the first bug I've encountered that alluded to game files not being found.

Anyway, I've been playing since way back when, but this is the first time I've played the Unity version. I really love all the new additions and world building that's been done. I'm seriously addicted to gem matching and the different elemental specializations you've added in. The gay content is a huge bonus at the end of it all ;p

Oh, I didn't realize Mac had a Wine equivalent. But yeah, that's probably the source of the bug.

Developer

Thank you for your kind words! I hope you’ll enjoy the full version as well, as there’s more stuff for you to do in it.

As for the mac version, if you download the game through itch.io client, you should be able to play it without an issue. The problem with newer macOS versions is that they won’t let you run an executable that hasn’t been signed, and an unarchiver application will say that the file is broken. There is no way for us to sign the game due to its nature, so there isn’t much we can do, afaik.
