RPGM Completed Arenus [v1.1G] [Arvus Games]

[Leo D. Marstone]

Hey Ho,

first of all awesome that you come here and engage in the thread although in the current sour state.
If you read my rant this was just my initial impression as a player going into the game mostly blind (did not follow the dev process of arenus) and only recently catched it existence again.
Also with that out of the way let me try being constructive.

Better late than never but congratulations on finishing the game. This is always a accomplishment.

Also I will give you the benefit of the doubt and will play a bit further. Just recently finished the first bronze fight and the only scene was the shower and masturbation. So the porn failed me already in my 4-5 hour playtime and I just run to the gym then spa and back home again. Lets see how long I can keep this up until hopefully the gameplay opens up like you mentioned ,)


Last but not least I hope you, kaliyo and the whole team will have a break and gets better. This maybe sounds shallow but I can a bit imagine how draining game development is. (former 3D Artist here. Modeling and rigging and stuff)
I hope you can go strong into the gold patch of roundscape after some time because I am stoked for that. Really liked the stuff you showed for it.

Anyway take care.

If you cannot get more than 1 heart, you didn't build enough affection with them (low mood reduce affection daily).

There is a bug though with gladiator quest which is a pre requisite for the 3rd heart event

i checked the affection with my gladiator(save editor) and i had 240 and she had full mood everyday

In your room interact with your closet

I can access the UI from the closet but the problem is that I can't do anything from there. I click on the boxes and it just tells me what they do. I can't spend my points on anything.

Edit: Nevermind, kept messing around with it since nobody said they were having the same issue. I was trying to buy from the wrong end

Your truth and you are right! I think not everyone will dare to make such a huge game in a very interesting cyberpunk pixel art style. Of course, there are many shortcomings, but damn it .... I haven't spent more than 60 hours on the game for a very long time .... even AAA games can not always interest me so much. I hope in future updates the authors of the game will add more interactive and animations (for example, I would like to see in real time what the gladiator does when she goes to train or work as an escort, and not a screen with a report what results she has achieved in a day).

After you reach affection threshold for heart up with your gladiator when you speak to them in their room they will ask you a question (it's some sort of heart up event) YOU NEED TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ANSWER TO HEART UP!!!

 

[FurFan]

Attempted to run a special mission from Wells that limited actions to items and normal attacks. Problem is they had the brilliant idea to lock reload for the MCs gun so only way to reload was hoping you had enough Valiants as there's no WAIT option for the MC that I could see. Anyone know if that'll possibly be fixed?

So if u dont heart up your gladiator one time u wont be able to heart up again in all the game?

i got a bug when doing the beginning of the construction girls quest where you see her and a slaver in the weapons shop-arcade area. i think the bug was caused because the fast travel system lets you approach the zone from the west if you traveled there, while the scene is expecting you to come from the east, so when i entered the zone all the characters just stood in place and did nothing and the scene couldnt start.

To get the 3rd heart you need to

But right now said content is bugged for at least 2 gladiator, one due to a new bug, another because we were dumb and none of use synched properly on who chose who on gladiator choice so Geyna didn't get debugged properly.

It should be fixed in v1.0E though!

I dont quite understand, does Geyna the gladiator that can reach 3 hearts in 1.0d? Is there any news about 1.0e?

I think so because everytime i pick the wrong option i restart that day.

 

[Fuckoffm8y]

Can't even start the game, wants me to press any button, none register

The main quest is an invitation to the Penthouse..... again a black screen, if use debug the screen becomes normal but now the MC is not displayed and you can not interact with the NPC....this is where the progress of the game stopped completely.

 

[Experimantal]

Woohee, lot of comments since I left, so I won't be quoting much this time around, sorry in advance.

First, thanks for everyone's feedback, especially you Leo, you the G.O.A.T. with that text, read everything and I can agree with what you say, I'll relay the positive vibes and feedback to the team!

I dont quite understand, does Geyna the gladiator that can reach 3 hearts in 1.0d? Is there any news about 1.0e?

Elona should be the one with least bugs when it comes to personal quest, right now Geyna and Armida quests have bugs which make completing them troublesome (invisible character) to impossible (going to the bar on a monday). Deep apology for the trouble.

1.0E should arrive tomorrow evening at the earliest.

So if u dont heart up your gladiator one time u wont be able to heart up again in all the game?

That a nice design flaw I wasn't aware of, let me question the designer on that.

Yes it is a known issue, and will be fixed in 1.0E

Also in an earlier post I mentioned fast travel for free, it is indeed only 2 daily, as the car has the same function infinitely (might rework all that during QoL updates, maybe give another use to the car).

Ended up quoting a lot, woops, oh well, thanks again everyone for the feedbacks, I'll relay them (I didn't forget the reload issue, no worries!)

They said release on summer 2022...
Well, i dont surprised they miss date so bad...

 

[OneLastTime45826]

Do someone know how many scene there is ?

 

[Lvost]

While I love the artwork and all I think there just Isn't really much going on between the player and the gladiator. There are 3 main scenes and that's it really. Considering the amount of stuff you have to do and the amount of time you have to put in to progress and all,....it really isn't worth it for so little.

I would like to see the end of day screen be skippable. More scenes/interactions for the vanilla route between player and gladiator. Your gladiator sprite on the menu should change depending on relationship level/romance, I.E - Less clothing to nude. Naughty expressions, various poses, etc.

How to "travel to pleasure cove"?

Pleasure Cove is the massage parlor.

1. The arcade girl´s "games" with the powergirl, kicks me out of the game itself and the "tower game" i played just once but when i tried to play again it just puts me with the "you lose" screen and it says that i won 20 pts but there isnt in my inventory, i dont know how to use the plushies rewards and i cannot get the other rewards because those need to have 100 and 500 points but the limit is 99
2. With the serpent girl... i guess? her missions are destined to and with, the wrong name, it sends me to the weapons shop but in the end is the arcade girl´s mission and sometimes sends me to the bar woman but she isn´t around in wednesday
3. Now the current problem i have is that when i enter the bar, it starts with an animation where the orange guy complains about the gloryhole girl and then everything freezes so i have to close the game and restart but the problem is still there.
Sorry my poor english
I read some comments ---- so guess i have to wait for a update?.

I encountered 2 major bugs, if its known sorry for repeating the report.
1: The blood axe warehouse where raven sends you. When i entered the second room, after the dialogue with the boss, the background turned black and although i managed to win the fight (only ui was visible), after that the blackness remained and other than the menu nothing worked in-game.
2: After i won the first silver game, next day on monday the bed interaction stopped working. The hand icon was there but it didnt do anything, so i cant continue the game at all.
+1:The scene with Zalex showed the dark skinned female warden while i played with the black haired female warden, but next week when the "workout" repeated the correct warden showned up.
About feedback: well pretty much what Lvost said above me emphasizing on adding more scenes with your gladiator and skipping end day screen. Also: arrows above doors when you can encounter a scene, quest, or just unique talks, maaaybe a little bit faster run speed for your warden and lastly: one big issue imo, that there is neither a gallery or enough save slots. I prefer a gallery but i can live without it if there are enough save slots to be able to save before the scenes. 8 save slots are waaay to few for this. If im correct roundscape had 20-ish slots? That would be nice to have. (I see that gallery might be added with steam release but the extended slots would still be good imo) There is real potential in the game, adding plus content like in roundscape would be quite welcomed.

full save?
