RPGM Caliross, the Shapeshifter's Legacy [v0.9.31] [mdqp]

[Skudzy]

Current version doesn't appear to work with joiplay anymore.

Script 'Global Setting Addon' line 355: ErrnoL::EINVAL occured
Invalid argument - MyProject\

Edit: As it would turn out, I was incorrect.
A happy accident had me attempt to add the game to joiplay from my internal storage, as opposed to external storage (where I hit historically store all my games), and for whatever reason the game now appears to work.
Attempting to move the folder of the game to my external sd card, for whatever reason, causes some issue with the MyProject directory which is seems to bring about the error message I mentioned at the beginning of this post.
Happy gaming, gamers.

Haven't played this in a while. Has there been much content for the diva singer?

I considered her path completed a while ago, so I don't think I have worked on Edith in years, minus a little cameo in a short quest/event I have recently added. If you have progressed far enough in her "romance", she will have a request during the quest, and fulfilling it earns you a picture of her naked on a bear rug.

Can someone share how does this symbiote looks like?

The paid version doesn't have any extras, it's just a month ahead in development. As a patron, you also get the art preview each month. Some tiers get access to a short story I write in my spare time and vote for what happens in it, as you go higher in the tiers you get to vote for monthly polls to give me direction on some things, if you go higher up you get two votes for the polls and stuff like that. You might as well browse the Patreon page for all the details.

I don't like strong-arming my supporters for basic features. Support for the game allowed me to get more art and work on it full time, but people that can't support me should still be able to enjoy the game, hence the current setup.

The walkthrough must be updated, but it's freely available (linked in the game's folder as well). Maybe I should make the walkthrough a paid option though, since I hate working on it.

The game does have a combat system, but it's not the focus (I partially regret not taking the time to design a better system, but it's serviceable and since it's not the focus, it's probably for the best if I didn't go down that rabbit hole).

Please dont stop working on this game, it has so much potential still, no other rpg scratches that niche of long-term corruption that this does (also I would love if someday we could get a Higher Resolution version)

How can I skip dialoque? I just lost a solid two hours of content Ive gone through and so Im gonna have to go through it all again. I can obviously just click z constantly but most games has a fast skipping option. Cant find it with this game so figured id ask here.

I am glad you like it. ^_^
It's been a long time, though, so I will call it a day soon (hopefully in January, as far as major updates go). As for a higher resolution version, while it's not exactly impossible, the amount of third-party scripts and the changes between VX Ace and later versions of RPG Maker make it a challenge. I think there are some "hacks" to increase VX Ace's resolution, so maybe I could get away with using the same engine and avoiding a lot of work, but I'd still need to change quite a lot of stuff, so I don't know. Generally, I am more interested in doing new things. I am not getting any younger, so wasting years revamping old titles isn't quite what I want to do.

If you hold the "W" key, you can skip dialogues. If you need any help with shortcuts/keybindings, the default ones are listed at the top of the walkthrough, which is linked in the game's folder.

Alright I totally understand, I cant wait till your next game though, I hope you continue the theme of a longer term well written corruption that is game-changing and has tons of variances.

Furthermore may I ask what engine your considering for the next game?

The idea is to try and keep mind-control and corruption as the main themes for my next game(s) as well, yes.

My next game is going to be a sequel to my previous one (Tales Of The Drunken Cowboy) and it's going to use Ren'py. Mechanics will include a turn-based combat system, traits affecting interactions and dialogue choices (like having the athletic trait allows you to climb somewhere and reach a different point of entry, for example, or having the sexy trait gives you the option to convince someone to do something for you by flirting with them), a hacking mini-game, and much more. It's a sci-fi setting, so it's going to be a bit different in tone, but hopefully the writing will still be decent. XD

wonder about Pregnancy is only for bad end ? or limit with some npc,event,screen ?

You can get pregnant from multiple different guys in-game, it's not ending-only. But you can't run around pregnant, instead you get an event where you take a brief maternity break from adventuring and can go a few places and have sex while pregnant, then you give birth and give the baby to the orphanage and return to adventuring (there's also the option to keep the baby but that ends the game as you retire to take care of the baby).

Does anyone know if this will make it to Steam when it gets to 1.0?

I don't have plans for it, at least currently. I don't really want to "sell" the game, and paying just to put it on Steam for free seems a bit wasteful. Plus, I am not sure it's a polished enough product to have on a big store, it just doesn't seem right to have it there.

I'm pretty sure you have to raise taxes when first setting things up.
The townspeople will respond accordingly (after all, your very first action as there Lady is more of the previous Lord, who was a greedy idiot that earned himself a traitors funeral).

Honestly, I just save scum my gambling at the Queen of Hearts and never raise taxes at all.
