Others Pervert Action: Timelapse [v0.73] [BBBen]

[BBBen]

I did, but there were issues so I used fix permission command which doesn't really help with my problem, tried a bunch of other commands that worked with other games but instead immediately close PAT when is starts up, is there anything I could do?

btw heres the commands I used:

chmod +x Game.app/Contents/Versions/*/nwjs\ Framework.framework/nwjs\ Framework
chmod +x Game.app/Contents/Versions/*/nwjs\ Helper.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs\ Helper
chmod +x Game.app/Contents/Versions/*/nwjs\ Framework.framework/Helpers/crashpad_handler
chmod +x Game.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs

The fix permission can be found in the site, it was made by goobdoob, another thing I want to point is that another game developer switched their format from rpgmaker to the format of PAT it had trouble of opening in MAC.

Ah, there have been some reported issues since Mac updated their OS a little while back and a lot of programs have suddenly not been opening reliably any more. It's pretty frustrating because I can't really experiment with how to fix it.

From my troubleshooting FAQ, if you get an error that says, "The program "Game" cannot be opened" that is likely something to do with OSX's unzip features changing permissions. Try unzipping it with a different utility, as that has worked for other people with the error.

I'll ask about this on the VNM Discord; they don't tend to respond very quickly, if at all, but if I get any helpful tips I'll pass them along.

Understood, I am not asking any further help just want point out that the commands that I gave allowed most rpgm games in Mac format be playable, some of them which switched to the current engine of your game is now impossible to play them. Just giving info hoping it might give guys a clearer idea on the problem.

Thanks, I hope I can find a workaround for it. It seems like some people can still use the Mac releases but since Apple did the update not everyone can run it any more.

It's a piece called "Antipersona" by Gumbel. It's under a creative commons licence for use in other projects (like all the music in the game is) so you might have heard it on a video or something.

Yeah I think I've heard it as well in Adventures of Willy D

As of v0.33 it does have one, actually; it's just not in the public version yet.


The HTML version is hard to get running and I don't really recommend it; it's just for people who for one reason or another can't run the Windows or Mac versions. (It requires script blocking to be turned off, which should only be done while you're not using the same browser to use the Internet.)

But the 64 bit version doesn't need to run in an emulator and I haven't heard of anyone finding that it does nothing at all. (Where did you find that kind of troubleshooting info, btw? It's not from me.) It should be compatible on Win10 and in fact that's what I build and test it on.

This sounds like some weird problem you've encountered - maybe try re-extracting the archive? The extraction or download could have been broken, I suppose. It's then supposed to be run by double clicking Game.exe, if that's not obvious. Other than that I'd just be guessing. Maybe your antivirus software is blocking the exe or something?

The 64 version download from here seems to be corrupt. I re-downloaded the game from your blog and it works. I'll try it out now.

I've just tried downloading and running the Gofile download here and that version does seem to be working. I have a suspicion, though, that the downloads from them might be breaking a lot and leaving some people with incomplete, corrupted zip files.

Is the new thing in public release the double dates???anything else I am missing??

That's the focus of this release, yes, a bunch of dates and the sex scenes for Nobuko+Shizu and Emi+Shizu.

 

[Ninjaperv]

Is there only one scene with Nobuko/Shuji/Hirai? Because that was my favorite one and I was hoping for more threesome scenes with those 3.

Only one so far; I don't know what the future may bring in that respect but if I have a good idea for another scene like that I'll do one.

That was so good, I really like swinging route. You got yourself a supporter if there are more scenes like that!

Here are some ideas to bounce off you if you're interested.

Ugh. I was actually getting into the game, and boom, timelimit. Why the fuck do developers do this? It's an H-game for krissakes, I want to explore content and get immersed in the lore and the characters, not try to maneuver my shit perfectly in order to hit some bullshit threshold that I didn't even know existed. So frustrating.

Good art, very good premise, good dialogue..... and turns out to have this shit. Grr.

Edit: Could be I'm wrong though. Is Day 21 just as far as the content has gotten? Or does it hard cap at 21 on every playthrough?

The time limit's there because it's intended for replay; sorry you found it frustrating. (It does stop at day 21.) The reason for that replay structure becomes a lot more clear, I think, after a little while of playing it, but I want to avoid spoiling why.

So far, all the pervert action games (as far as i can remember at least), always end at day 21

Thanks for the reply.

OK..... I ran a second playthrough. I got a little further (one additional memory) with one girl because I was ready for the events that burn a time slot and thus avoided jealousy incidents, but that's it. Either I'm doing something wrong, or other people think replaying the same content over and over is a lot more fun than I do.......

Is this a game where you have to follow a walkthrough in order to really see the content? Am I supposed to focus on just one girl? Do I just keep doing the same thing and new content should show up at some arbitrary replay level?


Edit: I'm definitely doing something wrong. I did an accelerated start for playthru #3, and right away get "Do you want to see Shizu's sex scene?" I'm assuming this is one of the memories from the early bit of the game I've already seen, but sure, why not. Nope, it's a scene I have never seen at all. Are there scenes you can only get by _skipping_ the intro?! Anyway, I quit out of it because I don't want to spoil content for myself I'm supposed to unlock by actually playing the game, but there seems to be no way at all to get to this scene in the first 7 days of normal play.

I want to like this game but this is very unintuitive.

At first, yes, you should just focus on one girl at a time, although you'll need to date the others a bit to keep their jealousy down. Your skills affect how well the dates work, so if you have more hand skill then the spa and the casino are better dates, for example, but it's also worthwhile to watch the ladies' moods.

So you might just want to have a bit of all the skills and go on the right date for the girl's mood. If there's no great option for you or you're out of money, then boost your stats a little more. And really do try to avoid those jealousy arguments - they're bad.

With that kind of approach you shouldn't find it too hard, and if you get Emi or Nobuko's endings (the only two endings currently in the game - more are in progress) then you'll find they're easier to date on future runs. (Which is one thing that changes, but not the spoilery stuff.)

Managing skills and stuff is basic game tactics, that's fairly intuitive. What we have no way of knowing though is that the mission of the game is to zero in on one girl on successive NG+ runs. Given the jealousy mechanic and the general expectations of a "harem" game, that's not intuitive. Please consider throwing a line of text at the end advising players that unlocking each girl's individual ending is a good way to advance the overall arc, that would save some frustration for players like me.

BBBen, any idea what's going wrong with this Shizu sex scene that only seems to unlock when you do a fast start? Is that by design?

Edit: oh holy shit, I just saw that the subway lines represented diferent girls. FML. I just didn't catch that little bit of the logo, that makes everything MUCH clearer.

Maybe I could drop some additional tutorialisation in when the dates are introduced.

I haven't seen any issue with the Shizu sex scene triggering. Was it just because you hadn't seen all her flashbacks yet?
