HTML Abandoned Psychic Private Eye [v0.99.3] [Sanjafeth]

[sanjafeth]

Hello.

Does that mean the storyline as a male protagonist is finished?
I won't ask for more bi/gay content though. I'm already glad you tried to include some.

Good continuation.

A lot of the 'bad' endings depend on what gender the MC is at the time, but getting past the last 'boss' (several ways to do that) leads to the same 'good' ending.

At this stage I am working on the mechanics of the Cafe using a female protagonist as the placeholder. Once I have that done it should be simple enough to slot in various gender options.

Hey good people. I can confirm that this is not an abandoned project. I am the author and hit some IRL walls over COVID. Gradually working on a new update and another project now.

Does anyone know how to remove the "abandoned" tag?

Read the 3. Prefixes section of the Game Uploading Rules [2024-02-29] thread, especially the following part associated with the Abandoned prefix...

Note: this prefix is only removed upon the release of a new update for purchase/download.

Can anyone help with a little handholding? Spoiler tags if you must... I've been playing for hours, day 22, realised there's a grind to the game where you probably have to train your psychic skills and keep trying at the points you were previously blocked. But the game just doesn't advance fast enough, it feels pretty boring. Considering the high rating and opinions I've read here, I must be playing the wrong way. Should I just power-pump my skills instead of trying a round through the city every day? And a very concrete question: do the narc effects mean there's an actual hard time limit to finish? I'd hate that it were so...

So... Don't mind to be spoilered back! Any help would be appreciated, warnings against choices that lead to bad endings, etc. Honestly, I'm having fun with this game, but it's not like I'm keen on dedicating days to cracking it down.

It's been a while since I played the game and you've already got some answers. I'll just add some precisions, hoping it'll help you.

will there be another update?

 

[sanjafeth]

will there be another update?

Well, there is a 0.99.4 version in my HD, but it is mostly small fixes and attempts to provide some in-game hints without undermining the fun of discovery.

The only new content planned is the cafe at this stage.

I do plan to release that when I have either completed the cafe or decided to simplify it. A coupleof months at most.

Keep in mind that the very first line of any sort of code and/or story I have written is in this game. The main problem is that I experimented with several devices and systems, and basically took on a massive project without knowing how. I think the current result is OK for an absolute beginner, but I accept the criticism I have read here and in the home thread (on TFGames) as valid.

I have another game already coded, but which needs writing and pics/art. It was ambitious in its own way, but less forgiving to errors.

Are you the dev, if so make sure to go thru and get setup for this site.

I am the dev for this game yes. I tried to do that, (see further up this thread), I had no response from admin and nobody seemed interested. I don't mind either way.

At least you're still trying to work on the game.
