"download from here" which link did you use because you shouldn't have any problems with unzipping from any properly downloaded version.
Wait, you said "from here" but then you say you downloaded it from itchio - which is it, here or itchio?
Either way, same answer - if you have problems with the unzip, it's from a bad download or something - not the file. Everything you need is in that one download.

The game is making sure you're not running some shitshow mods from somewhere. The developer recommends no mods, whatsoever, to play the game.

1. I tried downloading it from F95 first, with each of the links. All the same result. Missing a main file according to 7-zip. Same as trying to open the game's exe file. Missing same file.

2. Used itch and everything worked just fine. Was just wondering if I'm missing anything using itch, because 98% of the time F95 has a way better version. Whether it being 100% uncensored or having extras or the full version.

3. I always play the normal game all the way through to experience it as the creator intends. Then I use the mods to get everything possible I can out of the game.

4. 7-zip is as up to date it possibly can be, never had a problem before this. Also it did fine with the itch version.

5. Anyways, after all my rambling, my question is this; Am I missing out on anything not acquiring the game from F95?

OK OK. I can give him a couple more days to complete the update. But that's all, sorry. He can spin as he wants, but the clock is already ticking.

Try late December.
Playing Loml has become a sort of a new Christmas tradition in many households, so if the update drops anywhere in-between now and then im going to be seriously disappointed.

They should be the exact same version tbh, I supplied the same zip both here and on itch, which is why I'm a bit baffled (assuming you picked the regular downloads and not a translation dl or compressed, but I don't think you going on what you said). Since there's no forbidden content in LomL to be patched in later to get around Patreon platform TOS, it's exactly the same version, and you should be fine with the itch version.

Thanks for responding to me personally! The game is effing awesome so far! I'm currently on week 5, I keep getting slightly disappointed when I see the cutscenes with Macy and Denise, but then I'm pleasantly surprised and relieved when I see the story continues! I love you for that! ( no homo since idk your gender) well I guess I should say platonically or whatever. And that pirating cutscene was cute! If I ever gave anyone compensation it'd be towards you, the developers! thanks for this amazing game and distraction from an otherwise uneventful life and the chance to live one vicariously! Have a great day!!

Most likely Windows Defender snatches that file before it ends up extracted on the disk.
It's a well known kink of Windows Defender, it just doesn't like Ren'Py and some other indie game engines.
Likely Windows Defender logged it, just didn't bother to tell you. That's another of its kinks.
Check your logs, add the file to Windows Defender exceptions, try again.

Since I don't have the itch.io file to compare, I have no clue.

Thanks for the reply and the explanation. I'll definitely check that out if I have this problem again in the future! Might save me hours of mindless searching for solutions that may not even be there. And as for the itch/F95 question, naughtyroad already put my mind to ease about that.

I've enjoyed the game thusfar but does the writing style and characters only fit with dad, and daughters or have you found another mix that fits with the writing?

I've tried brother but the mother/wife part made that wierd.

looking forward to the next update! :)

I don't know if there was a similar question. But how many chapters are you planning to add?
Click to expand...
After the chapter currently in development there's at least one more, but it might just as well be more, depending on how things develop while I'm writing. I plotted out all the major big moments and dramatic developments before I got started, but a lot of the details only become apparent as I'm travelling on that particular part of the road so to say and some I feel are worth taking a little detour to explore a little further.

I see. Thanks again for the game. This will be the only game I support on Patrion.
