[zazzaro]

thx for the amazingly fast response! thats why i like you as a developer! keep it up Belle!

 

[RobJoy]

Love the plot development in this one.
My Primrose,.... keep your pixie paws off her. you hear?



Next update, probably Crone face-off with the help of fey or some other magical creatures more powerful than the crone.

 

[bosp]

Keep up the good work. Really enjoyed the well written plot in this update.

I suspect that specific 95% also believes in Santa Claus.

What are you trying to imply? He is the most awesome saint there is, why you dissing S.C.?

I added a little bit to Remove Inhibitions for both girls, but time restraints was what prevented me from doing more. It'll get expanded, don't worry. To illustrate just how demanding this update was to write, it took me one week of intense brainstorming to just get past the design stage for the puzzles, and the writing for this update alone is roughly 15% the length of a full novel. This isn't even my primary job, so there's only so much time available to me for working on it every month.

Yes, I thought as much. I'm also a writer and I know how difficult is to translate a mystery story from mind to paper. And you also have to encode it into a game. Didn't want to sound critical, I started with the premise that I had zero knowledge of this update before playing it, I just knew it would move from the previous arc.

Quality wise, your game would rate very high so far, hence keep up the good work!

I think next update will be ravaging of, ehm... bonding with Primrose. At least I understood Belle's post in such way.
Which is something I am waiting for, from v0.3...

Well, whatever it is, I know I will love it.

The constant banter back and forth between the MC and the Pixie, the detective story,.. the suspense.... some cool shit indeed this little game.

Well, I must agree with you on that point.

Hmmmmm! I guess asking for a walkthrough is really out of the question then

right?

Thank you for your service

Belle thanks for this awesome game, one of the few games I wait every month for updates.

Can anyone tell me where to find the evidence of "the scales are used for, namely,........" the third evidence I cannot find no matter how hard I tried. It's my mistake probably but I don't have time to play all the update again unfortunately.

 

[Darting run]

Just finish playing this version. Love it.

Actually, I am one version behind . Still rate 5/5.

 

[Gomly1980]

Okay, i'll do it.

I'll ask the question everyone wants answering.

I'll put myself out there to get the knowledge you all seek.

When do we get to bend the crone over and rail dat ass?

Listen your little pixie and go to the Crone.

Learning as I go, I've now added a fix to prevent the whole Ren'py exception error from happening in version 0.10. It was surprisingly easy to do due to the way I've set up loading/patching of old saves. The "downside" is that it'll no longer be possible to rollback to something that happened before your save, but I can't really imagine many players will miss (or even expect) that particular feature.

It won't fix saves that are already corrupted, though, so be careful with the rollback feature after loading saves until version 0.10 is out.

It says in the changelog that there is a timed event on day 17.
does this mean that it you can only access it from day 17 an onward, or is it missable and only occurs once on day 17?

I handle this the same way I handle everything in this game for existing saves: If you load a save that is beyond the point where something was supposed to happen, the game will make it happen at the earliest possible opportunity where it makes sense. Both dialogue and time limits take this into account, so you shouldn't notice anything out of the ordinary. In other words, if you load a save that is at a day after 17, the event will start the next morning and will last for a week, same as always.

Any time an event happens on a specific day in this game, it will always accommodate for existing saves that are beyond that point. The event system is set up so that the event will keep trying to trigger until it succeeds. In other words, the new event in this update will trigger the first morning after you load your old save.

The system even handles events that clash with each other. If two events try to happen at the same time, one will get priority (according to an order I've decided at design time) while the other will wait until its next opportunity to trigger.

If, at any point, I will require an event to happen on a specific day, we've come to a point in the story where I'll have to invalidate all saves anyway. That's still some way off, I think.

Without asking for major spoilers, will there be scenes with the mysterious princess or will the game end when she arrives?

Why would the game end when she arrives? That'd be like Star Wars ending when the X-Wings fly towards the Death Star.
