Guys, why all the save files here that I downloaded are in a different format than the one the game accepts? Do I need to merge those files to a certain format or what?
They are just in a folder.

I have a question, chapter 12 just came out, will there be more chapters or was this the last one? :unsure:
Chapter 12 ends on a cliffhanger, indicating the story is not finished, and the game hasn't been marked with the "completed" tag.

Here is what the dev said in a recent post on Patreon: "...with Chapter 13 being the last full sized chapter(Chapter 14 will be an epilogue/endings)...".

If I'm right, the format you've got is either .rar or .zip.
That means they're compressed archives containing the save files, so you need to extract them from their compressed state.

Download and install either 7zip or Winrar (I recommend 7zip to avoid later annoyance) and then extract the files from the archive (.rar/.zip file) then put the extracted files in the game's save directory - Make a save in the game at least once to generate the save folder first, which will be in the same folder named game that you put the Mandatory Patch in.

I'm gonna try to make a FAQ and post it in my sig. Since I'm pretty much on every page, it will be easy for people to see my post and be linked to it if they need a common answer.

If you don't see your answer to your question, @ me on this thread and if it's frequently asked, I'll add it.

C'mon dude, I obviously extracted the file.
The problem here is that the extracted files come separate in their folder, a json file, signatures, RenPy version and the screenshot png of the save moment.
While the saves in the game are only in the ".save" single file.
I don't know if, at this point, is a problem with the way I'm extracting or JoiPlay that I'm using.

If it were obvious, you'd have already mentioned/specified the different file format. You didn't.

In fact none of what you wrote actually indicated you'd extracted anything, when there's way too many cases of people dumb enough to try and run games from within the compressed archive they downloaded!
Hell, you never even mentioned that you were talking about something relating to joiplay until now.

Next time, include all the relevant info in the first place.

Just what file did you download then? Where did you download it from?

The main reason why I am no longer supporting him until a release is because you can't repeat the character: so basically Hunter or Kevin can only be used once. And you cannot invent a new character to mix things a bit and change scenarios (smth the dev confirmed me directly). I would have loved to see Mallory with a dirty hobo, it would have been hilarious considering how different this pairing would have been, but this possibility, or any other, are over.

I am disappointed by how the $20 tier got less and less, from What Ifs to Dream scenes and now to this, where we can't even choose the scenario, just a pairing which could have happened even without the voting...

So no support from my side, hope those more patient than me that are still subscribed can tell this to the dev. I will speak my mind with my wallet.
So what happened to letting the dev do what they want? fucking typical hypocrisy.

What do you mean by this? That's not what hypocrisy is. Believing a dev has a right to do what they want doesn't mean you're obligated to pay for something you don't like. And I somewhat agree with his general point, the value at the $20 tier is less than it used to be.
