I took a look at your save and the file data seems to be largely missing. A normal save file is in the 300kb to 400kb range, whilst yours is only 115kb. When I load and ignore the error, it resets to the beginning and all of the data is the default value. When I do a rollback there is another error that makes reference to the very first image in the game. Sorry, but I am at a loos of why it is that way or what went wrong.

I'm sure you can obtain a save game on this forum that suits your needs. If it is still in the free roam mode then you can go to the Captain's computer and rename the MC. If not you will need to use console commands to change the following variables: [cname], [lname], [cnick].
Yeah I got him covered, I had to start again because had script error too, but enjoying more the game now trying do everything, hope you made the game to 100% doing all quests,side quests,miscellanous, so far all good, but had to go back a few times because of those ByPassed, but I'm hard headed will get them all, even if I have to go to your house and drink all the beer:whistle:

I know we can finish the game without so many other stuff to do but more fun trying to do it all even if it doesn't change the story at the end, when a game is completed I want to make sure I don't play it again and can move on to my other 30 I have stored, so I'm milking this cow to 100% pure lactaid milk :rolleyes: only missing 2 from miscellaneous and 1 is still unlit, training troop, still haven't fought 1st battle, I know gonna be hell on main to get them all that's why rather get rid easy one's(well not so easy)
I always have multiple plays through with this type of VN game, always. With four possible endings that means I will do four plays. I may be able to start the subsequent games from the middle but there will be at least four plays to the ending. Recently I played one with 8 different endings and a bonus ending for a total of 9. I unlocked all but two before I installed the gallery unlock mod to see what little bit I had missed. It wasn't much but still a bit of guilty pleasure because I prefer to unlock games myself whenever possible. I don't mind asking for steps to unlock certain scenes but I'll be damned if I was going to try an eighth and ninth play! Hahahahahahaha:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Four is easy. I expect four or five but nine? I can only remember so many choices and how I might be able to make them end differently. Nine was too many endings. Four is great :)

Didn't think I would get a response to my earlier challenge, however it doesn't really address the main issues:
- Where will they be?
- What will be their new life roles?
- Do these futures for the girls reflect their aspirations?

Also from a game design perspective, post award ceremony there are 4 options, then you get access to 4 of 5 events and then the final event. Having a harem option means that you only get 1 of 5 events in the middle portion. This truncates the content for this option.

If there aren't any details. It becomes a 'And they lived happily every after' style ending. Don't think anyone is going to be happy with this scenario. :rolleyes:
The only character that might accept an harem would be Tanya, if, and only if, she feels she's the only one you love and you are totally honest with her. But none of the other girls would be willing to accept a secondary role in that mix. Lia's people is quite conservative, her own maid seems scandalized when she sees Lia has slept with both Tanya and the MC. She's a queen who is expected to stay in her planet once she has experienced the space life, so if the MC wants to be her man, he should stay too, which goes against Tanya wishes. So even these two friends' goals are mutually exclusive.

Now, Kara only talks about having a quiet life with the MC and creating their own family. At no moment does she imply she would be willing to share that life with another girl, plus the same logic applies: which one would be willing to live in a secluded farm according to Kara's wishes? The intrepid pilot who wants to be the 'alpha female'? The most powerful queen in the Galaxy? I don't think so.

Then Tiffany. She's the most jealous girl, the one that keep insisting in getting the MC all for herself. Even Julia's training, which you see just as a 'porn-logic perversion route', is just a way to make sure she's the best and the only one the MC would ever need. It's not a route to make her willing to share, but quite the opposite: it's a route to become MC's only choice.

The fact that all of them are OK with the MC fooling around with others is only due to their confinament in the ship and their hopes to be the chosen one when this endeavour ends. Those pranks they tend to do against others when they feel neglected shows perfectly why an harem is never going to work with this roster. They are competing, not sharing. So it doesn't matter that you as a player, or even the MC as a character, could be willing to answer 'Yes, it is worthy'. Because the girls just won't accept that answer. They are free people, not your slaves.
I am not a creative person at all. All that I have written is only a very rough sketch. I tried to rationalize and objectively describe my very subjective vision of the game, the characters and the whole situation as a whole. And I think a harem ending is possible. This is only a possibility, of course, but it's not a small one. What follows is based only on endings that are joint with the MC, I will not touch on the rest, where the MC is not present.

Tanya is a very adventurous girl, she wants to surf the cosmos, travel to different parts of the universe. You don't have to be on every one of her flights.
Also, you do not need to fully immerse yourself in the life of Heleon. After all, Lia is the ruler, not you. Of course, you need to pay enough attention to both Lia herself and your future children, take part in some events, but not all of them either. It's difficult, but not impossible.
With Kara, too, everything is quite smooth. There is a house, a loved one is there, her people are safe. You also don't have to be there 24/7.
With Tiffany, of course, everything is very complicated. That way out of the situation can lead to both positive and negative results. But in this case, the main thing is to develop the right soil (I'm not sure if I wrote this correctly and whether it will be clear to you what it is for). And then...

Like I said, it's all just a possibility. It can end well, or it can end like in The Witcher 3, when you tried to romance both Triss and Yennefer, i.e. with nothing or as in the Dragon Age: Origin where you will be directly presented with a choice, i.e. we will return to those endings that are in the game. But everything is possible, the main thing is to do it all correctly and describe it.
Relationships between people can lead to completely unexpected places in fiction novels and other works. I remember how I accidentally read in the comments under YouTube about how ATTENTION FURTHER SPOILERS FOR MONOGATARI

You write that this is impossible, but I also remembered the Mass Effect ATTENTION FURTHER SPOILERS TO The Mass Effect

I cannot go into details. Because if you start to come up with a plot for this, you can get a whole new game. The MC wakes up one day and, as in Helltaker, says: "I want a harem." The ultimate goal is to create the most influential marriage union (do they speak English like that?), which includes some of the most influential women plus the MC (he is also a big shot). The only thing that comes to mind is that some unexpected event should happen. This event is like the Spanish Inquisition. Nobody expected this. The result of this will be that the girls realize that the MC is too important and irreplaceable in their lives and will come to a compromise with each other. Harem seeds should already be planted by now and this event will allow them to grow. Then the necessary actions and words on the part of the MC and voila, a very powerful family was created. In addition to harem fights, you can also add political intrigues, investigations, adventures, new discoveries.

The MC must also respect every girl. Everything must be done by mutual agreement. MC is not a character from the Miel games. He will have to find a balance between the members of the harem. Well, given their technology, he can travel from one planet to another, from one girl to another, to pay attention to each. He does not need to choose one place to live. Also, after repairing the ship, they can all gather on board.

I hope I was able to convey my idea and it did not disappear during the translation. I am an ordinary harem lover who did not get the ending he wanted and came up with my own, which I consider true. You gave the opportunity for this and I took advantage of it. In my answers, I relied primarily on feelings and sensations. How successful all this I can not say.

1.0 did not like my save files from 0.9, for reasons, so a fresh start led to a complete playthrough. Hit most events on the way through; I suspect a couple might be exclusions created by choices made... might lead to another future playthrough.

I managed to fall into the ending I hoped was in the set of potential ends.

For anyone using Shaddy Mod to tweak things slightly... the "bars" for stats are clickable and proportional. To pad money a couple thousand, click inside the bar, a little to the right inside the barbox with each click. Works like an interactive progress bar. I used it to start off with a bit more funding allocated to the ship... I seriously underutilized the mod's features, but I guess the next full playthrough might get some min/max action.

Enjoyable... quite enjoyable!

Well, here is my vision of the harem ending. English is not my native language, so please be understanding.

First, the harem will consist of Tanya, Lia, Kara and Tiffany. Alice, Rachel and Julia have never been love interests, rather friends with benefits. Now in order. Let's start with Tanya. Will she be against the harem, I don't think so. Yes, she said that sex and feelings are not the same thing, but you need to give her enough attention, give her the opportunity to control a cool ship and everything will be in order. Can MC do it? Yes he can, but more on that later.
I agree with the idea of a smaller harem with just 3 or 4 girls that want it.
But the most baffling thing to me about the endings is what happens if you don't choose Kara.
You give her people a whole planet to settle down around the vacation home you paid for.
Instead of just adopting some kids she rewards you by finding a whole new husband.
Nah...Kara your new hubby owes me some money :4Head:

All in all this VN is pretty damn good for the dev's first game or so. I would definitely be interested in Stellar Crossroads.

Dam had only 1 left and miscellanous events left and just saw ByPass on 3 side missions, which I don't even know them and don't know how to trigger them, any idea? Only did the body snatchers
Hi Chico. You didn't read my spoiler, did you? Not too happy with one of the endings already. Still going to finish this sometime this week but what I just read put this one on the way back in the back burner... the one in the axillary kitchen! (That's the one in the Pelagius Wing... haha)

Anyway... spent most of the day troubleshooting and replying in forums while the other machine updated my changes. Finally found the cause of the dark face bug and cut that cancer right out! So, no more dark face. Now it's time to reinstall everything else that had to come out to reveal the culprit... Pretty sure it was Tuesday when I discovered and started in on this mess. But, I'm almost done with it now. This was absolutely the most stubborn dark face bug I have ever encountered! It was two patches that weren't doing their job properly that caused the whole thing. Well, needless to say, those patches are history! Hahaha :ROFLMAO:

After what I just read about how my dream ending for this game just became an NTR nightmare... not too f***ing happy with Callisto right now. I'll finish what I started but if what I read was true then there is a certain character that is going from preferred to last resort in subsequest plays. Not happy at all... Humble apologies... the news has my bipolar disorder crashing waves of depression over me.

Ciao, Phat

Yeah read the spoilers, don't worry I'll collect the money he doesn't know me. I'm trying figure out side mission 2,3,3a how to trigger them, had all 3 BYPassed after the 1 battle, could only do body snatchers. And PC's don't even let me get started, paid a friend of my brother to make me one, to make long story short had to spend another $500 still not what I wanted but 1kx better.

All you have to do to trigger the side missions is to travel to Beehive Station. There is a 5 day delay between the side missions so on a normal play through they don't all fall on top of each other. They are not available after the Krillen battle as the success in the second and third side missions changes what happens in this event.

If you are not experiencing these events, it means that you are not trading, salvaging or even exploring the game. Note that final game outcomes depend upon many event in the middle and late game. You don't have to be anywhere near perfect to get every outcome, however you need to make some effort.

yup all so far but can't trigger 3 of side mission only did body snatchers, if I knew others could probably figure out where to rollback
Best advice I have is to tell how I approach these multiple ending VN titles...
1) Make a lot of saves. Given a choice, save the game, play one choice until it yields results, even if that means taking it to the end of the chapter or even the end of the game. Then reload and make a different choice. Shampoo, rinse repeat as often as needed. The more choices you have, the more saves you need and the more reloads you have to do. These stories can branch like a tree, a trunk can have many branches on a tree. One choice may lead to five, ten or even twenty more choices that can affect the outcome. Some choices may yield the same or similar results, others go in a totally different direction. So, you may need to save reload multiple times for multiple choices on multiple branches. Four endings and a few side plots should not be all that complicated. Pretty sure I can figure it all out without a walk through. However, I've already asked for help once and may need to do that again.
2) See step one and repeat until all possibilities are exhausted. These are literally save, make choice, reload save make new choice again and again until all is revealed.

There is no magic or secret to it. I'm not one much for puzzles but I like figuring these games out. Most of the time it's therapeutic, especially when the story is good. But, I just found out that the dream ending that I had hoped for since finding this game around version 0.4 and the reveal of that fabulous retreat (that we are supposed to own and paid entirely too much for) just became a bizzaro world, horror show of what I imagined. So, Phat is not happy with Callisto at present... not happy at all!!! But, if you follow my advice for branching stories you will successfully uncover everything. Make saves, make choices, reload earlier save, make new choices and repeat as many times as needed for every choice the game gives you. That is the recipe for VN success. There is no shortcut, only cheat mods and walk throughs. Both can help once you think you have found everything but still have options left to find. TBH, there could be twice as much gameplay as I currently have uncovered. But, now that the game is complete I can go back to start and save, choose, reload, new choice, repeat.
Hope that helps... I'm running on empty... Phat over and out...

This is the last thing I am going to say of the matter.

Callisto is a sci-fi game with harem elements. It is not and never has been, a harem game. The tag applies, because there is an option for repeatable lewd contact with multiple girls, without severe consequences.

The reaction from those that want a harem ending, is one of the reasons why quality developers rarely create them.

I'll leave you with a quote from Tiffany:



PS: If you are still upset that such an ending doesn't exists, post a little outline of what it would entail and see how the community reacts. It's far easier to complain, than create and publish content.

It seems I was too subtle. Let me spell it out: I'm not arguing about your game being in need of a harem ending. I'm accusing you of capitalizing on the expectations of people who thought it was a harem game, leading them on in order to gain their monetary support.

In order to disprove such an accusation all you have to do is demonstrate that you, in fact, communicated from the start that your game with "harem" in tags is not actually a harem game. It could've been done through posting here or on patreon/discord or through "author note" conveniently linked in the OP.

The whole game was a "harem" experience. Was the MC sleeping with everyone on board? Did they all know about each other having sex with the MC? Was the MC sticking his youknowwhat in whatever honeypot he wanted and no girl cared? YES, that is the answer to all of those! So what, you are pissed off that you didn't get an ending with 4-6 girls giving a simultaneous blowjob to the MC or a giant gangbang scene? That is pretty small in scale to the vastness of the entire game. I paid and I loved this game. Did you pay? If you didn't, then why are you talking?
