I hope you all enjoyed the last version. I'm curious how helpful the scene selector and new do over systems were for you. And if anyone liked/used the uncompressed images patch and it is something I should keep doing going forward. Feedback is very helpful as I can't read minds (that you know of).

Really like what you did with the day selector. I sometimes play late and when I come back to the game the next day or two, I don't always remember the last scenes in a day. I usually only save at the beginning of a day so that saves having to skip through a bunch of scenes just to get to the ones I might need a refresher on. Using the uncompressed image patch too and will continue to do so if its something you're willing to keep up with. Definitely think its something others want as well.

As for bugs, the only ones I've really noticed have to do with the Do Over menu. I already mentioned one in an earlier post, but I've noticed some of the other settings not really sticking or they update other things as well. I've had a repeat of changing one option and it somehow switching the character from a virgin to not. A newer one I noticed is that I have Morty set to have his first kiss with Morticia, but he's mentioned it was his first kiss again with someone else. Don't recall if it was Summer or Beth.

I believe this is actually a limitation of how Ren'py works. After changing all the settings in the DoOver menu, you must click Return and then advance one screen to essentially lock them in. Now you can save and those settings will be retained in the save games going forward. Also if you make a change in DoOver and then later rollback to a screen prior to the one you were on when you made the change, the setting gets undone.

I may not have the technical details of why it is that way, but I can confirm that was what worked for me when I encountered that problem.

As to the first kiss dialog, originally the "first" kiss for Morticia was mandatory, so the game explained it away as "doesn't really count" so you could have a REAL TRUE first kiss with another character if you wished. Now it's considered a first kiss, but you can skip it if you wish to give it to someone else. The dialog you saw with Summer or Beth could be an artifact from the original "kiss but didn't count" approach.

Will add it onto my bug list and see if I can fix it all up for the next game version.

What is uncompressed images? Should I use it with the game?

 

[kenta16807]

What is uncompressed images? Should I use it with the game?

Exactly what it says on the tin, images in uncompressed format and higher quality.

If your eyes bleed when you watch the normal compressed ones, this is for you

What is uncompressed images? Should I use it with the game?

The images in the game are compressed normally because compression algorithms are actually very smart, and you can get a result that would be considered of high quality by most, while being efficient with hard drive space.

Uncompressed is for those that do not worry about hard drive space, or their bandwidth. If you’re willing to double the size of the game for a 5-10~% fidelity gain, this is for you.

Well the thing if I changed some random option it would instantly update another one. Going back out of the menu, advancing the scene, and returning to the menu and the 2nd thing it updated was still there. For example, if I load my save for day 11 and go to Summer in the Do Over menu, it'll show Swallow as Yes (even though I didn't choose that option) and if change that to No, it'll update her Virgin status from Yes to No.

As for the first kiss, it doesn't seem to be registering that I actually did choose to have the first kiss with Morticia. It certainly updated itself in the Do Over menu but I didn't skip it and when I got to the next scene where you can have a first kiss, don't remember who it was, it acted like I had skipped it. So maybe that dialog update got missed.

It's good of you to provide those extra details, really helps the developer track them down.

Display values were swapped, it has been fixed for the next version.

Will review the script.

Really loved the update, although it is kinda shame that Summer still treats Morty as just a "fuck buddy" rather than full on boyfriend. I hoped the events in this update and future dissapointments in Ethan down the line will convince Summer to ditch him completely in favor of Morty.

Yeah, I'd really like if we ditched Ethan too (I tried to downplay him as much as I can), but I can't simply get rid of him, or events like this one won't/don't make sense. The whole reason Summer wants to go to the water park (public pool in the original) is to hang out with Ethan. Again, I am somewhat trapped within the existing content and while I can fix/change aspects of it, removing characters isn't one of the things I want to alter.

 

[kimlana]

(I tried to downplay him as much as I can)

It's quite the fine line between making Ethan ambigously gay so he's less competition for MC and setting the stage for an eventual Marty/Ethan male-male scene XD
