Ren'Py Corrupted Kingdoms [v0.22.1a] [ArcGames]

[ArcGames]

View attachment 376469 They're definitely upscaled. Everything is, but it's a lot more noticeable with text than with the other images. Maybe having icons with text larger than needed and downscaled would be an idea to think about? That would be a simple way to do it when dealing with raster images in an SVG anyway, I don't know how it would work out here. As for a map of the mansion, you can't draw one? Didn't you draw the other maps? They look fine.

That's not the game - it's something to do with the machine you're using. You may want to look at this post? Here's what the icons look like on my test machines:



I've checked with a few other people, and they all report no blurriness either. It's really weird that you're getting it, but hopefully the post I linked will solve the issue!

And no, I didn't draw the other maps - they're from two free online map generators:

and

. Both of which are amazing bits of software, but unfortunately I can't find an equivalent for designing interiors.

uhh, in the 1.9 update i cant work with lilly anymore ArcGames

Same here, but I assumed that was because you now have the weekly income. Also can't mess around with Pixie (or Lilly) either anymore, only talk.

Yup, basically this. Next update should have a dialogue exchange between MC and Lily to explain the loss of the option. Other means of gaining income will be added over time as I start to nail down the price balancing on the properties. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Messing around with Pixie and Lily will be re-added in this Sunday's update. I just didn't have time to plug them in last week - sorry!

i like the animated scenes

 

[Biaaaaaaaaaaatchhh]

i realy like this game
MAN I LOVE GOOD STORIES AND CG

 

[prrt]

I needed to get the hang of the game ,even removed it of the computer some time , but now it like it .
A small irk of me is the map ,city map the road to the world is pointing west but on the world map the road to the city is west too .
But when you get someone nagging about such a trifle you know the rest is good.

 

[davederick]

Chloe screen is rather lame.

 

[UnDeaD_CyBorG]

Just noticed the update. Man, this game is good.

So many Pixie fans, am i the only Qarinah fan out there?
Also i cant wait for v.0.2? The closer i get to a new Qarinah riding scene the happier i get.
Keep up the good work!

Nope, I like her as well!
Actually, if there's someone I don't like, it'd be Gwen. The MC powers went batshit on her and she became too lovey-dovey too fast. I know for a fact there will be more development her and I'll love to make things more to my style once it gets done.
I'm not really complaining though, it's far better to have quality content being made this fast than having full custom shit but literally no content ever.

I wasn't that affected by it because I'm used to roads going all over the place. Since the city isn't built on a level ground (as the MC describes in the beginning) it's no surprise the roads would be getting drunk, hills aren't good places to place your roads.

Agreed, Gwen is annoying with her "Oh, my love!" "Anything for you my love". There should be an option to put gag in her stupid mouth(perhaps an "outfit" - naked + gag)

 

[Devil's-Doctor]

it's a good game with a good premise, just currently way too short, i'm waiting for a lot more content.
Rooting for you.

 

[Big Green]

Pls @ArcGames make it so we can fuck the fairy. That's my personal fetish and it's hard as fuck to find.

 

[Lordvaati]

After winning character cards I don't know what to do :/

Don't worry - it's coming! The next few updates are going to prioritise Pixie (by popular Character Poll demand), and Sunday's update will feature the first of her H-events

After winning character cards I don't know what to do :/

Check the hints in the Character Cards to see what you can do. There's not a lot right now, but I'm updating weekly to try and get as much content out to everyone as possible!

Yes, because you are displaying it at native(1280x720). Try display at Master of Puppets resolution(1920x1080), or mine(2560x1440). It doesn't matter if scaling is set to GPU, Renpy, Monitor or disabled. The aspect ratio is messed up at 2.34 vs native 1.77.

Example: prologue-council.webm 1280x720
Plays at: 2370x1015 2375x1015 when maximized windowed.

Looked back in the thread and didn't see someone point it out but apologies in advance if you heard this already. Even though they aren't blood related Patreon wont like the MC calling Jessica 'Aunt Jessica', they don't allow even that kind of fun, they still put that under incest and this could get your page suspended. Would hate to see your momentum get shot in the knees by something like that, so just be careful.

Also found a bug in the latest version, after doing everything available I clicked on the character cards and got an error on everyone, this was on a clean game not an old save btw

Anyway keep up the good work, glad to see a new dev doing so well!

....Although I will say I'm in the camp of people who would suggest slowing down a little, maybe switch to an update every two weeks lol

The bizarre messing around with aspect ratios on maximising the screen is one of those weird Ren'py things - for some reason you always get black bars on the sides. Online answers to the problem range from "Huh, that is weird" to confused shrugs to "Don't maximise the game window", which isn't very helpful

Thanks for the warning I may try to be a little sneaky and slip it into the game anyway (if Patreon slaps my wrist it's easy enough to remove) or I could just go the easy option and get the players to choose what to call her. Depends on how smart I'm feeling.

The Character Card error is very bizarre... the code doesn't change depending on location or progress, so - like all coding problems - it shouldn't be happening. Could you send me the traceback.txt file? (And of course, standard questions: Did you use UnRen? Did you use cheats? etc. etc.)

Thanks for the kind words! And don't worry, I get enough sleep when I pass out at my desk

It's not only the aunt thingy. The succubus could be another problem. The "she's xxxx years old" won't work and yeah...if Patreon sniffs this out you might have to remove her or make her look less underaged.

Yeah, just do what you feel is best.

When it comes to the error, it was a clean game, I didn't use any cheats or unren at any point. Not sure if anything else on my end could cause it

Here's the error log, hopefully it helps

Better find ways to make the desk comfortable then....I suggest mouse pads, life sized oppai mouse pads, nice to lay your head on, I own a few lol

Black bars is a perfectly acceptable trade-off for windowed mode given how the bottom 80 pixels are eaten away in Renpy on default. But it should maintain a proper AR while doing so, not venture into non-standard 16:6.8.
Other games seem to either go the route of "eh, just stretch it" or to maintaining a proper AR with minor black bars, so it's possible at least. Perhaps take a look at one of the more popular Ren'Py creations and how the problem was solved there?

Suggest House Arrest, first title I found having same asset size as you. The dev(s) have also re-added the bottom 80 pixels, ending at roughly 2530x1420(15 pixel black bar on either side).

Thanks for sending the traceback! If you don't mind, it'd be a huge help if you could try one thing, and then if that doesn't work just answer a couple questions? Sorry for the annoyance!

First of all, could you try saving and then reloading the game, then moving to a different screen and try opening the Character Cards? If what I suspect is the problem actually is the problem, the Cards should work.

If that doesn't work, then just a couple questions:

1. Are you using the Win, Mac or Android build? 2. Does opening the Character Card ALWAYS give an error, or only after a certain point? 3. Does it give an error for every girl, or just Annie? (Or does it crash before you even get to select a girl?)

Again, sorry for the hassle!

I may have to sneak into your house and steal some of those Oppai mouse mats - they sound super comfy!
