yeah kinda crazy the gameplay and mechanics never got reworked over time considering thats basically all the complaints
are they atleast acknowledged by the dev, having issues in a long developed game is one thing and depending on how it got coded might be hard to change or balance but if the dev is ignorant about the reports its another thing, so far it seems not that the gameplay is really bad but more repetitive and to grindy which means just reducing some numbers might be enough to make stuff work for most players (havent played the game yet to have a good opinion on that and am a bit scared to try since a lot of people mention the big grind and that its not worth it)

Was anyone able to play this on linux?
trying it with bottles the game trows error and suggest the path has nonenglish characters (which it doesnt, unless bottles is doing something strange, but i doubt it, i guess it's kind of incompatibility).
with lutris the game loads slowly and hangs after hitting play.

edit: ok disabled VKD3D, in lutris and the game runs now. have some artifacts on the letters tho.

edit2: ok, spoke too soon. the game doesn't launch again... :D
Works without literally any configuration or issues for me. I'm on Arch and I'm just using the base wine-staging, not even using lutris.

The game is not long or bad if it is repetitive. If you are on Patreon or donate money, something like cheats has certain aspects in your favor, what happens in what I saw is that to level up consists of repeating actions for a long time or looking for I don't know what they are called shortcuts or ways to do something than xp and repeat it. There is a guide to obtain a power and other things but they are fairly long and in my experience I couldn't advance much and I saw little content because I didn't advance much.

I played it for a long time although I didn't play more than 2 hours a day, and in a few cases I managed to see animations and things but as I say in my own way I played 2 hours a day and with what I knew. The level is conserved so leveling up quickly is useful although it takes a while and if you are a high level it is easier to farm. That's why it's long and mechanical until you get enough to be able to walk around and do free events and things.

Unless someone is being rude I read and listen to all feedback and have made a lot of changes and improvements to the game engine/UI/mechanics/content. The best way to let me know if you're having an issue is to post a report on my bugs feedback website, which is listed in the OP.

As for a grind, for some people having to press spacebar to advance a VN is a grind to them. I am not sure why they don't just watch some porn instead. My game does have a battle system that is admittedly a little clunky at times and I've done a lot to improve it over time, with more features scheduled once I'm at a better place with support that I don't need to take so many side jobs (thanks Patreon snitch), but that's another story.

I wanted players to feel like they are becoming more powerful as they level up and unlock new powers, so Kronos is pretty underpowered until at least your first level up or two, which is basically 10 enemies of equal level to level up. Is 10 minutes of fighting to level up 3 times and basically get to a point where you can handle almost anything in the game, maybe 15-20 minutes of battles over the progress of exploring, talking to people, encountering events, completing quests, stripping girls, etc in order to get to a place where you can now kill any enemy in the game a grind? I guess for some people. Some people just want a save with every scene already unlocked and the act of playing a game is a grind to them. That's fine, but it doesn't make a game bad, especially when my game, for all its little quirks, tries to break away from the format of 90% of the games on here (No shame to those other games. They know what makes the $$$) I've played some very popular games which have you repeatedly mowing lawns or doing little text battles over and over again, far more than the time you spend with my little isometric battles.

I've even ported one of the more popular scenes from Kronos Time Titan to Ren'Py and I have another one about to be released, which I know will make people who don't like my game mechanics, or who don't have Windows or a way to emulate on Linux, happy. So I do listen to and care about people who aren't having the best experience with my game.

Unfortunately I don't have a studio and I don't make nearly enough to work on my game full time and still pay for rent in California, which is very expensive. But I am proud of being a dev who continues to release new content month after month, even the month when Patreon dumped all of my supporters and I had to scramble to take a bunch of other jobs in order to pay for groceries and rent, I still released new content for both supporters and free players alike.

To address your fear of not wanting to play the game because of a grind, well, the game will save your XP, items, girls in your harem, money, and energy even if you don't play the game for a long time, then come back and update it to the latest version. The only progress you can potentially lose is when you rewind a timeline, which is part of the gameplay, so if you want to play and level up a couple of times, then drop the game for a few months and come back later, you can. It's a non-linear game so when I add new content it doesn't require you to play the entire game over from the start.

Do I still use Lewdpatcher for this version of the game? Because if so it's down for me.
That website seems to be working for me.

doesnt work, tells me this account is not a supporter, reopened the game and no auto password, cant play at all
Like the instructions say in the original thread as well as the "README FIRST - VERY IMPORTANT.txt" file, running ktt.exe will let you play the game without any sort of login. The game launcher login is just for supporters to automatically update to the latest version when a new update comes out, which is usually every 2 weeks. I wanted a special way to say thank you to people who support the time it takes to add new content every month, so I made a game launcher which allows supporters to update the game without having to download the entire zip file all over again.

How's the stability these days? I've tried it a few times in the past but I'd get freezes and lockups pretty consistently.

Aside from that, gotta give props to the dev for being one of the most consistent and reliable ones around.
ok, made it work in bottles. turns out bottles didn't have access to the directory of the game itself (since it was a flatpack i had to grand it permission there)
played a bit, seems relatively fine, the artifacts around the letters are smaller also

ok, crashed when i killed the first dude that has my power, but when i replayed it, it continued. so yeah
I would like to invite you both to try version 24.09.29 as I have made some stability updates to one of the core game functions in the engine. So far my testers have reported good stability, but they don't often experience crashes so I'm interested in hearing from people who have had the game crash on them recently. If you're interested, please DM me and I will give you access to the testing channel on the game launcher.

MAJOR UPDATE! VERSION 24.09.29

Hi everyone! I've updated one of the core systems in the game to improve stability (fewer crashes, especially on slower machines) AND reduce the total size of the game by over 400MB! As this is a major update to the code, please let me know ASAP if you run into any new issues which you didn't have before.

Can't play on mobile): unless there's a mobile emulator for whatever program this is made on. Was interested because I like Greek mythology

ROTF, I can't believe how itty bitty you made my game.
Still the same compression as before though. Its just 80% Images/40 bit audio/39 Constant quality mode for Videos (Kinda hard to explain what its in %.
So probably no it saves the most from the videos. :KEK: You probably shouldn't try to reduce it further. If someone downloads my compression they accept that the quality will be reduced noticeable. :HideThePain:

Hello, I find the new update interesting. I don't know if I'll be able to try it. I usually have a disk full of games, but seeing that the game weighs less, it is updated by deleting data and etc. It seems interesting to me, I see that it added more scenes and that, it looks promising. I hope I can try it, unfortunately I can't make the effort to play it for a long time but I download it from time to time, I hope one day I can play it comfortably, not because they add anything but because I can make the effort myself and enjoy it as I should.
Does the game save its data on the PC or in the game folder? I never remember that, I think I remember going in and playing but certainly not being 100% in the game made me forget it.

The world map breaks every time I leave an area. The token for Kronos disappears and I can't move. Interacting with the options menu then selecting play game fixes it sometimes, though after leaving the area with the initial fight against Actaeon it didn't solve it. Leveling up however did solve it. After acquiring the time travel power and leveling up the issue has yet to reoccur.

I liked it the truth, I don't know if Scarlett Young edited something or not but I started playing it from 0 and I level up faster, it seemed unfair to be level 2 and leave enemies with 1 hit even so it seems easier to level up I feel that the enemies give less xp but it is more comfortable to go to farm them I went up 2 levels in less than 1 hour, the only bad thing is that sometimes the sounds of the game overlap when talking to NPCs and the game lags or your companion after killing enemies moves and stays poorly positioned on the board and you have to use the power to pass time to move her and unlock her, also when moving on the map every 3 or 5 slow steps it takes a long time to load all the NPCs to move and sometimes it pauses and the character goes to the position where the mouse is as if it were going through the map, something like what the donors use, the game was perfect for me so I don't think it's my PC and in any case it's not it should affect the mechanics of the game which it does so I assume it's from the game. I liked it, I don't know if you edited Scarlett Young's stats or something, if you did I liked it, if not it doesn't matter, you did something that improved the feel of the game and I liked it, I leveled up to level 3 in less than 1 hour, I could interact more with the npc's, now I want to follow the guides and get powers and etc, when I delete the game I have to start from scratch I always know the content is good but if it is aggressive with new people it tends to not be attractive, that's why I liked the new version, I hope you can review those errors and little else, in my opinion the mechanics are perfect now. It only needs to polish those flaws that I think are from the game when reading the scripts, I forgot to mention that leveling up bugs the image that warns you that you leveled up with an empty screen and the game goes slow until it restarts or you click on the stats and level up manually.

I give my word Scarlett Young, I support you 100% now in the game, now it gives me that feeling of happiness and being able to advance with difficulty because the path of killing enemies is long, only now they don't kill me with one hit and there is a significant impact when leveling up, for my part I would only report errors in the operation, I love your game even if I have to restart it because it closes or slows down.

I hope you can update it and fix that and nothing else it would just be new content and fix bugs, as a player of various games from 8bit, pixel, nv, rpg, strategy, to 4k quality in unity or unreal engine, it seems very adaptive and easy to play, it fulfills its purpose of a fast game that allows you to enjoy your 30 minutes of rest and be satisfied.

Scarlett Young, is there a way to give you messages with the errors that I see, if you receive notifications about errors from other users then it is not necessary, if you usually receive some more towards the minority, tell me and I will try to give you the ones that I find, I don't know if there is discord or things like that, you tell me, only if you need people to test and report things like what I said, errors when moving and things like freezing errors when leveling up, etc.

I'll be honest, I spent about 1 hour looking for tricks and etc before the new version because I thought it would be like the previous versions and it would be tedious and boring to start over, I admit it, but I tried the new version and mechanically it has bugs, yes, but it's also easier. and more fun since I tried the game, I went from just being excited to see that there was new content to enjoying the gameplay.
