Version 0.17 is released. Grab it here.
I no longer make full PNG builds, but you can still install the patch if you were using it before. But from now on I will only make webp versions.
This update is much smaller than usual, but there were reasons for that.
You get 160000 new words in 5 days total, 592 new renders (not counting the backgrounds), partially remade 6th act, 127 new character sprites.
That's about it.
UncleVT update the thread, please :)
The size change is a welcome addition to the game. My external drive say thanks. :LOL:

i know the game is huge, but i stopped playing it a while ago because it became harder and harder to understand where each choice would lead to, especially long term

i see there's a walkthrough, but it's almost 500 pages and it's just a description of each action
i think the game would benefit a lot from a guide that would focus on how to get each route and described the possible versions of those routes, at least the main ones
Last that i know, Sancho was doing a WT mod for Shattered but because of the game size it is taking time (also he is doing it between his other several mods).

Thank the femboy gods for this change, for not sticking with PNG releases, I already regret my life choices when I stuff my HDD with porn games, but to also have some of them weight 4-15 gigs when they are just visual novels is a bit ridiculous.

But I didn’t change anything. I’m still making the same compressed webp version which was always available. Only now it’s the “main” version.
If you let me know what you think might be wrong with it, I can take a look at it.
I can’t figure out how to sort the characters list. Up until v0.16 Blake could only meet the same bunch of characters. Now there’s a whole crowd of those you can only meet under certain circumstances. As of now I manually check every single variable (and some of their combinations), but it’s a disaster.

I feel your pain.
I like the game, but I stopped following the different stories many updates ago. I do not even really know anymore what the main story path is, there have been so many branches and sub stories it is impossible to follow.
Some of the character only show up every 3 or 4 updates hard to remember what they were or what their agenda was.

Great graphics, wondering where the way will lead,

It’s strange to me to read this because the most common complains about that part of the game are:
  • There’s not enough choices, everything is linear;
  • There’s way too many choices, and it’s impossible to follow them all;
But only one of those things could be true, right?

Yeda, is there a route you would consider to be the most 'true' for Blake? Or at least do you have a favorite route personally?

Also, is Dominique more of a 'grey' character or just plain evil?

This game is interesting because a lot of what you learn is just another character's opinion and may or may not be true.

When I just started Shattered, my main route was Samuel because I felt that the progression from being a shy and sarcastic slum boy into a slutty sugar babe would be the most interesting from the psychological standpoint. Unfortunately, it didn’t exactly go as I was hoping, as I quickly realised my limitations as a writer. Plus, there’s just way too much common content between the routes, which is why I can’t let Blake’s personalities deviate too much.
Now there’s no “true” route, although I do have favourites, but it’s mostly about how much nudity I could show. I find my characters to be pretty sexy :)
Also, is Dominique more of a 'grey' character or just plain evil?
Dominique is the villain of the story. She has her own reasons to do what she does, but she does not respect Blake, and is only interested in him as her own toy which she will discard the moment she gets bored. The reason she turned out to be like this is because while I did provide various shades of femdom within other routes, people kept asking me for the true hardcore domme with no romantic feelings. That’s how they got Dominique.

Hi
I have the following message
It’s a native RenPy bug which sometimes ignores the variables for some reason. You can fix it by opening the console (shift + o, but you have to activate it first, Google will tell you how to do that), then writing “$ jsp = 0” without the quotation marks.

it's impossible for me to say, because i have no idea which dialogue choices are meaningful and in which way and which aren't

The routes are the different romance options, they all follow the main story.

Some characters are attached to certain routes so won't show up all the time. It's a date sim, you will have to play multiple times to see all the routes, this isn't a 1 route game.

Thre aren't many choices that don't have meaning. They are either setting up which route you follow or building up the LI route you chose.

Hi all my compressed unofficial Android port of Shattered 0.17 (compressed from FULL game)
Usual gestures, save name/delete, seethru textbox, resizeable game and dialogue text.
Scrollable choices (when multiple)
Scrollable textbox - no more text off the bottom of your screen
Alternative persistent saves/log location
Grant storage permissions on first run!
Mega
Mods can be added to " Documents/Wills747/shat.tered/game" folder (when they are done)
Attached is 0x52 's URM 1.11 modified to hide keyboard after variable search. Place it in the game folder.
Updated my Android port to 0.17

I don't understand why people complaining so much about the Walkthrough(pdf). It's very helpfull, well written, explains and guides you on everything. I can see that is difficult to use because its huge(especially for android users), but that is because the game itself is huge with several main and secondary paths. Imagine a WT mod how messy would be with all these information. I am not surprised that no one from the great modders here has dared to do it so far

Indeed. You only need to know how to use the search function and and simply read. The Walkthrough is pretty straighforward, when i was redoing Liam's route because of some lost savefiles i used it to quickly reach the same point ingame of my old saves.
