where is my save file

the engine I develop on is called twine, and I believe it stores it in a cookie or your local storage (I think it depends on what the browser supports).

When you are playing the game, you can import and export the content to a file by clicking on this button in the save menu: 1650495101279.png

So is this still updating for the "demo" Because I don't see the damn point in uploading the same demo over and over again. If you not gonna do public releases why bother updating when the "free content" is behind a paywall that only your patrons can open? Either do every like 2 or 3 public, or stop wasting our time with this paywall bait uploads sigh, sick of searching for access codes just to justify updating again sigh... I mean one thing would be bonus content behind a pay wall, but really this "play to same exact spot every upload unless you pay" model game should not be allowed to upload on here sigh. No one uploads the patron only versions for anything else unless its a leak sigh.


I mean at this point its no longer a donation to help it continue but a monthly sub to play the full game. If you gonna go this route either put it on steam for one time payment, or something like that. This paying every single update to play full game went from cute, to aggravating way to run your patreon.

I mean it's a Software locked HTML game. That's not a paywall, it's more like politely asking to donate.

I completely agree, but I wanted to be sure. So I looked up "paywall" on the

Aw, I really appreciate that. Thank you both. Now, as they say in the Oxford dictionary: give me $100. (Kidding!)

So many collisions... Cb9TKN1 Enjoy. Just so everyone knows, I don't usually remove DRM/crack something right away. I usually give authors/content-creators/developers time to gain subscribers, et cetera. Usually two weeks or an entire version before I bother cracking. Do not ask me to change that. This one's an exception because I enjoy custom algorithms.

don't worry I know a place that can help you bypass that... it's call a public library.

Access codes or other DRM are never really about stopping piracy entirely, it's just about throwing in enough of a barrier that some percent of would-be pirates becoming paying players.

You'll never make perfect DRM and the more draconic you make the DRM the worse the experience gets for paying players. Then those folks get REAL MAD when the game they paid for is actively worse because DRM.

Better to do some light-touch DRM if you're going to do it at all. Though IMO just doing zero DRM ends up best because you get more good will that way and alot of people will just pay anyway (like me, I'm a patron of this dude so I'm not like 'but I want to not have a code bluh bluh')

Well put, and I share your philosophy.

If I really wanted to improve the DRM, I'd get rid of this access code shenanigans and force you to download the full version off a site. And that's just the first step: I could change the architecture of my game so it's client/server. You'd need to be online at all times to play. Then, I could integrate Patreon's oauth api into the server code so you need to actively support me in order to play. Next, I could secretly watermark each version so I'd know who leaked it. (I think it's a pain to create new Patreon accounts? It's probably tied to your PayPal.) I could probably figure out a way to automatically ban leakers. I could even-- who cares. Even thinking about this stuff is a waste of time.

Besides, I have a feeling 1/10 people who read this are already two steps ahead of me and know how they would bypass all that stuff.

I'm going to go back to working on this chipmunk scene. I hope you all enjoy it when it's released!

PS: Thanks a lot for your support, by the way. I really appreciate it!
