VN Ren'Py Abandoned Six Serpents [v0.2.4.1] [lvl21karper]

[mma456]

What do the choices at the start mean? Are the events part of the game or separate?

They are just the Halloween and Christmas Specials. Though I don't know whether they are part of the story or a standalone different story. Cause in Christmas special we play as Lockheart, not as Voldemort.

I too would like to know whether the specials play a part in the story or not, and if they do then what's Lockheart got to do with it.

Is this normal?

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

That's a bug I will look into. Someone in this thread was kind enough to point out a potential fix (renaming the game menu). I hope to fix this issue as soon as possible.

compressed version please

It's not on our list yet to make a compressed build. However, we are always looking at ways to make the build smaller. As long as the images don't take a hit in quality.

What do the choices at the start mean? Are the events part of the game or separate?

It will be meaningful later in the game.

I can't hide text by pressing default mouse button, how you do it?

Can you provide me the error you get?

Liking the story so far, some proofreading/spelling/capitalisation tweaks still needed e.g. Hermione instead of hermione, McGonagall instead of Mcgonagall, also a random () over MC's fake name at the start.



Press H.

Thank you for pointing out the issues.

They are just the Halloween and Christmas Specials. Though I don't know whether they are part of the story or a standalone different story. Cause in Christmas special we play as Lockheart, not as Voldemort.

I too would like to know whether the specials play a part in the story or not, and if they do then what's Lockheart got to do with it.

You play as Voldemort, but the default name before you can enter your own is "Gilderoy Junior Lockheart". The issue is that you can't enter your own name before the Christmas/ Halloween event, so this is clearly something I need to change. Thank you for pointing it out.

It's good to know that we play as Voldemort in the Halloween and Christmas events and not as Lockhart. I never liked Lockhart and I'm also not fine with the idea of there being 2 playable MC's, such as Voldemort and Lockhart.

But now that you said that it's just Voldemort I feel a little assured

Also, is the Halloween and Christmas event part of the story or just a standalone story?

It's not part of the real story, since it would be weird to have fucked Milliesweet at Halloween, when in her real story you haven't even seen her boobs yet.

So the problem is that in your gui folder file "game_menu.jpg" is a PNG,you need to replace it with jpg.Just open game_menu. file with photoshop and save it in jpg format with name "game_menu"

I am going to work on resolving the bugs, and some other things people find annoying. I don't know when I will publish the fixed update, but I think it will be somewhere in the first week of January. I hope you understand, since this week will be very busy at work (I need to finish some things, deadlines etc).

You made a beautiful game, which takes time, take care and we'll be here

Thank you very much for your compliment! We will keep working hard to keep making the game better which every release.

A quick update: I was able to fix the bugs mentioned earlier. Saving works for me, and there's even an in-game menu when you pause the game! Not sure when I will be able to release this update, since I want to fix some dialogue issues too. I also want to experiment with releasing a RenPy build for web to see how that works.

I coded two new features, the gallery mode I showed earlier and a very simple combat system. However, both of these are buggy, so I want to improve them before I put them in the game. I think a lot of people would like to have a nice gallery system, wouldn't you?

 

[Deleted member 1684328]

Making progress with the combat system!

hi i presume people have already reported the bug when trying to save the game since you can't save currently

 

[Zane11]

Looks super interesting, will definitely be keeping this on my watchlist!

 

[dmmt]

until the inability to save is remedied, this one goes on a back burner.

Yes, I already fixed the issue. It will be published with a major update.

Thank you!

until the inability to save is remedied, this one goes on a back burner.

The fix will be released in the next major update.

 

[chris18911]

Such a great game!

 

[Deleted member 1684328]

Thank you very much! I hope you're looking forward to the next update.

 

[chris18911]

i am definitely! When will be the next update?

 

[Deleted member 1684328]

Working on it, no release date is determined yet.

 

[Deleted member 1684328]

Update incoming!



Will upload to WeTransfer and let staff know there is an update.
