The frat party scene was updated, reload from just before then and things work fine.From what I can tell, all of them stop there except the Riya path and that one gives you a couple of different options. Some of my old saves don't work and others do, like some of the story has been altered on different paths as well. I think I have all of the paths being played but the Riya one was the only one so far that I see any update on.
I disagree. I love that the game branches out and lets the player take the plot in different directions. I love that choices actually matter, and are actually impactful to the story. This is what a good interactive fiction should be about.I find it difficult to keep coming back to this game because of how entire routes and sub-routes can secretly open and close based on choices that seemed minor at the time.
Faled to initialize steam: FileNotFoundError("Could not find module 'C:\\Users\\[redacted]\\Desktop\\A_Couples_Duet-0.12.4-pc\\lib\\py3-windows-x86_64\\steam_api64.dll' (or one of its dependencies). Try using the full path with constructor syntax.")
Same thing is happening with me. Didn't work on android or on PC. Using an Nvidia card on the PC so not sure why this is crashing on android. Patch applied does not help.My game also will not start, the only error in the log is:
Code:Faled to initialize steam: FileNotFoundError("Could not find module 'C:\\Users\\[redacted]\\Desktop\\A_Couples_Duet-0.12.4-pc\\lib\\py3-windows-x86_64\\steam_api64.dll' (or one of its dependencies). Try using the full path with constructor syntax.")
Lmao, this reminds me of Batman: Arkham Asylum's DRM on PC. For those that don't remember, they added a sneaky DRM in the game that makes it so that Batman cannot use his glider if you used a pirated copy. You would play the intro normally, get maybe 30 or 40 minutes into the game and then when you hit the part where you need to glide to progress you're basically stuck, Batman's glider will just stop working when you try.The game is not *crashing*, it is intentionally and cleanly closing itself. I edited the config to disable Steam and removed the steam error from my log. If you open it with no other windows open, you will see it reach the title screen menu for a few seconds before closing. There is some sort of alternative copy protection in place that is causing it to close - the developer probably used a different method than the one the previous 'copy protection fix' patch resolved. I am too busy to hunt it down, but that's what it's doing (and where it's doing it: immediately after the game displays the main menu for the first time)
Interesting theory. Alright well looks like either an arms race occurs or people begin waiting for the official release.The game is not *crashing*, it is intentionally and cleanly closing itself.

King B is clearly willing to expend some effort to ensure that his Patreon early releases are in fact an early release that is hard to pirate, and given that he only provides them one week in advance that makes it improbable that the community will reliably hunt down and remove whatever method he's using in each release before the clean one comes out.
The people whom it is working for have something different than those it does not - perhaps they were at one point Patreon supporters of King B and previous installations left something behind that the game is checking for and assuming they are still current subscribers (or maybe they are). Somewhere right after the game pulls the main menu screen, it has an If statement that is checking for something and when it isn't present it is doing a clean return, which ends ren.py.
Considering Suicide Squad, I side with the pirates. Then again, this is F95.Lmao, this reminds me of Batman: Arkham Asylum's DRM on PC.

People went online to complain about the bug, and then the Edios devs said this: "The problem you have encountered is a hook in the copy protection, to catch out people who try and download cracked versions of the game for free. It's not a bug in the game's code, it's a bug in your moral code.""
Worked, thank you!It seems this has nothing to do with the steam error in the log file, and zoyle was mostly correct. Please try placing this into your 'game' folder to solve the issue.
It just doesn't open even with the "fix", I hope someone can correct it in the source file and kindly share it.my game keeps crashing how do I fix this?
Can confirm this works for me. Much appreciatedIt seems this has nothing to do with the steam error in the log file, and zoyle was mostly correct. Please try placing this into your 'game' folder to solve the issue.
How do you do this?It seems this has nothing to do with the steam error in the log file, and zoyle was mostly correct. Please try placing this into your 'game' folder to solve the issue.
Do you mind me asking how you did it?Can confirm this works for me. Much appreciated
I'm not sure what you're actually disagreeing with, since I did not indicate any dislike for impactful choices. I only said that the impacts of choices are frequently unclear at the time that they are made, and that those choices can close off entire routes and subroutes without the player being aware that this has occurred. A game with this level of choice ambiguity ordinarily gets a walkthrough mod to help sort things out.I disagree. I love that the game branches out and lets the player take the plot in different directions. I love that choices actually matter, and are actually impactful to the story. This is what a good interactive fiction should be about.
