Great game, other than one [new] problem that makes it unplayable: none of the switches on the bottom of the options menu are changeable. "Jumpscares", "Femboys/Traps" and "Animated BG" are stuck "On." Neither mouse-click nor tabbing over them have any effect. When I start a new game and the author allows me to turn those off, they stay on. If I delete the game's appdata\roaming folder, it's still stuck. It's as if the game is saying "you WILL enjoy this content, whether you like it or not."
Any fixes out there? I know a little about editing ren'py/python files. I guess it's not like I could break it more than it already is, right?... unless maybe if there's some hidden, abandoned MC/Transition content...
I do notice that my name is still pre-entered when I start a new game, even after deleting everything, so maybe there's residual files somewhere else in appdata?
I searched for your posts because of the 1star review you left (which was unnecessary).
If you tagged me, I'd have seen your post and helped you resolve the issue sooner.
You're the only one so far that has said they had such a bug.
My guess is that somehow, the persistent files that renpy creates are unmodifiable by the game.
Try these two:
First, run the game with an elevated role (as admin on windows, sudo on linux), and try changing the variable again
If this one doesn't work, then...
...delete the persistent files that store those variables, run game again:
Locations are in:
Windows: %APPDATA%\RenPy\Moonripple_Lake-69420
Macintosh: $HOME/Library/RenPy/Moonripple_Lake-69420
Linux: $HOME/.renpy/Moonripple_Lake-69420
Might also be stored in the game folder itself, so look for 'persistent' there too.
This will sadly reset the polaroids you found as well (but you can unlock all of them at once in the gallery with the password).
If this works, and you can toggle the femboy variable state now, you should start a new game just to set all the variables at the beginning (jumpscares, femboys, names), then you can probably load your saves without issues.
