Jesus Christ mate, what happened?! xD
Same thing happened to me. Try Sepherix's solution, it worked for me
First of all , thank you arclegend09 for telling me about it.

second of all : this is all due to either very pisspoor programming , it's still a buggy mess as now the title screen doesn't show up at all (pic related) but at least it is now playable. i don't know if theres hud ingame either , because it doesn't show up.
it seems the game really has a huge problem with resizing assets , and i actually wonder how do you fuck up something that badly.

EDIT ; the hud was turned off by default in the options , same with particles

If I remember correctly the problem with that game was the time it took to make anything for it because of the skeletal animation, he said in a post on newgrounds (although he didn't said which game) that most of the time the art was ready, but the dev couldn't put it into the game as fast as he would like. Now this BBS uses sprite animation, so it is easier to work with.
that's actually an extremely bad excuse. skeletal animation , with devs that know what they're doing , is pretty much alot faster to do than full blown sprite work.
plus that's literally what he does in flash form.

Depends on the nature of the skeletal animation. Making a fancy rig takes longer than doing one raster animation, but making further animations with that rig takes less time than with raster. Of course, then there's the problem that bone based animation kinda looks awful unless you do a lot of angles and tricks, so at a certain point raster starts to look appealing just for the fact that you can just "make an animation" and be done with it.

that depends if you want to make something good with it... which jasonafex clearly can't do , even though i (shamefuly) like his animations.

i think it's pretty much a lack of skill or bad tools that ended up making skeletal animations a problem for him. it would be a lot better if he could copy-paste animations to other objects , in order to make clothes follow your character for example , but he either doesn't know his software well enough , or he lacks the skills to find better software. (i never animated anything myself outside of pivot so i'm just guessing things here)
my understanding is that : skeletal animation really gives alot of shortcuts to go through when adding new characters and such , but the initial burden is a bit higher.

Rigged characters have limitations such as convincing joints, without a bit of extra rigging. However the second you want to do a new angle (which is just about every animation, honestly), you have to do some more rigging, otherwise you just have permanent side view, which looks very amateurish. It's sort of the contradiction for bone animation, which is that people use it as a shortcut, but if it saves time, you probably aren't using it effectively. That said, if you do make your 5-10 rigs for a character and angles, you would eventually make up the time. But that's outside of the scope of most random games, I think.

Picked the female. Got hit once by a bee and knocked down. Was never able to get back up. No button prompt. Nothing in the controller config.
Restarted. Went to the left a screen or two and found a chest I have no idea how to open. No prompt, nothing in the button config. Went into the door to the left of the chest, got a "Thanks for playing" screen and prompted to quit or go back to the menu.
Is there any 'game' in this game?

Edit: I finally got a chest to open! I just had to sit on top of it and spam the attack button until the game deigned to read that I was hitting it. Yeesh.

Maybe I'll try again in the future when it isn't a laggy pile of bugs.
You need to find a key and hit the key before going to a chest

For those wondering about this, it's a remake of the old Bare Backstreets game and it isn't the same as that one. It's also a bit buggy at times.
Hey so iv been playing the game and its had been recently updated could you get the new updated version? So its really less laggy and buggy

The real reason the previous game was scrapped was tensions between devs and jasonafex. Internal drama or something. The what about that are blurs. That's what I recall from that.

The orange area is way laggier than the vanilla one. They fixed performance but added one that is just as bad as before. Maybe even worse. Make sure to choose the other map when choosing. It defaults to the lag one.
If it runs too poorly for you at this point, there's not much to do. Maybe reduce size of the game or settings, but alas it can only go down so much. It won't run smoothly for everyone. I am aware of that very well, I have a potato gaming pc.

I don't think there's a new version released already. There's a preview of the next enemy, nothing said about a release.

That's a thing for everything Jason touches. It either gets abandoned or has reduced content. More than obvious why people would like to see him leaving the internet.
