The Engine has changed from Ren'Py to Godot.

The new engine **requires Vulkan support**. For PCs, it means having a GPU that is newer than GTX 700 series, and for smartphones it means having Android 10 or above. More information about recommended specs below in **Modified**.

What a crazy decision. What about the people who've been paying to support the dev and can no longer run the game?
None of it makes sense.

My guy, the GTX 700 series came out in 2013, it's literally more than a decade old.
If someone has money to support someone on patreon, they probably have hardware good enough to run this, it's not a GPU or CPU intensive game.

Last I heard the plan was for her to become no-so-little anymore to avoid bans. Won't matter anyway since they're going to start bleeding even more subscribers than they did when they announced this idiotic engine change when this is their first release. Game will be abandoned by winter.
I think you misunderstood :D
What a coincidence tho. I just meant within the story of the game, what made the younger sister so scared. Not the overall plans from the devs X3

So what's the endgoal with Natsume here. What's with the constant changes from blonde to white hair but no character progression for years? Is she a potential LI or a npc?

It actually was if you used default settings. They had an option for some snow fall (or similar) on the background that they added a switch to disable. Otherwise, it ran like treacle.

Regardless, here's a fix for igpus

Requiring Vulkan support for your 2D visual novel does alienate anyone using an older lowspec PC.
I'm pretty sure the animations aren't 2d they are 3d. In the renpy version the animations were just video files in the new version they are actual in-engine animations like you would find in any 3d game. this is also why the game is bigger now it need to come with all the assets for the animations instead of just a video file. however, the benefit is that 3d models can be re-used so additional animations will not need as much space as they would in the past.

GUYS don't use the skip function that is the biggest reason why it crashes
For key board just butterfly click/double click while pressing space and enter so that it's fast
Release the old game in a new engine and make it so that people, that already played the game like 3 times already due to so many times this has happened with the saves, can't use the skip feature because it will crash.

Fantastic.

Nobody is ever allowed to have bugs or crashes or any issues with any game ever from now on, because some idiot on a pirate forum says so. Any and all bugs are simply unacceptable to this guy.

I miss the day where i finished 0.4 and thought to myself "this is going to be so good when it's closer to a initial release"

Two years later, the story is shit, some Patreon subscribers (with shitbox PCs) can't play the game, and the game will have a 0.10

I agree mithroll. I am going to give it the benefit of the doubt for now.

I have seen far worse developers and I do expect it will get better, gonna wait for some bug fixes. Godot can make good games, but it is a pretty big shift... Bugs are unfortunately a part of that. Especially since they pulled out an engine shift and brought new content in seven months that is a lot of work.

If you are still using a graphics card from 2013 you have bigger problems than a porn game can solve.

Dang! Why change the engine it's redundant have you seen the successful games like Eternum and Pale Carnations they're still using Ren'Py all this years but are successful because they know their audience will lose the ability to play when changed. I have an Android 9 phone(can't install custom roms) i can't play the game anymore because it requires an Android 10 all of those yrs wasted just to wait for an update that gate keeps dang. Not to mention it feels like milking similar to Waifu Academy dev.

I would be far more forgiving of any other kind of bug, I even try to report them as often as I can and/or try find workaround, but this is the skip function in a game where (I think) 3 times saves haven't been compatible.

So yes, I'm miffed about it.
