VN HTML SlutEd [v0.15] [Shark in a Hat]

[shark_inna_hat]

I've been trying to play this game on android using joiplay but it just doesn't load.
I get the "taking too long" message.

What do i do?

I don't really know how joiplay works, I got a message saying 'this game is not supported' last time I tried.

On my old Android phone I can get it to run by just placing the files on the phones internal storage and launching it in chrome via file:///sdcard/
I've invested the money I got via BMC to get the cheapest tablet I could find, and on that device (running Android 10) I can play the game either by starting it through File Manager+ (that way it starts a private web server and servs the index.html on 127.0.0.1 ) that way it works both on Firefox and Chrome. The other way (that someone suggested in this thread) is to put the files in /Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/ and open via Chrome by going to the address file:///sdcard/Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/ and selecting index.html - I can confirm this works on my Android 10 device, but not on my old phone (I think it's running Android 5 or 6) .

Maybe someone will host it on their website, but haven't seen it as an online version yet - maybe they don't like the pop-up telling people the direct url so you can play the game without all the ads they put around the iframe. No idea why, tho

Hope this helps.

The game is cool
There is one bug that happened to me: when preparing to go to school you have to choose some outfit to not go naked - OK, but after applying the outfit, you can go bath and after bath go to school naked - this is where the bug begins. The game seems to remember the used clothes, since they are mentioned in text even if on image you are naked, but later when you have the choice to wear something, you have nothing available to choose from and thus cannot continue.
Besides this there happened sometimes to play voice with different then defined pitch or tempo - doesn't break the game like the bug above, just some voice inconsistency here and there (I use google voices for everyone since Microsoft Anna is monotone without pitch and tempo control)

At which day was this clothing bug?
Is the bug with the voices happening at random or is it repeating each time for the same texts or maybe characters? The voices are assigned based on the first line of text (usually the actor name) so if I made a typo in a name it can be read with the default voice... or the TTS in browsers is still junky and there's nothing I can do about it. Both are plausible.

Screenshot with bug - it looks like day 4:

The voice changes seems random - usually it's OK, but sometimes different voice kicks with text change - next line of text and after bugged line it changes to normal, so it can be a typo with character name...

About the "clothes selector" - why are there several variants of the GUI?

That is, sometimes you can select/create presets. Sometimes (like on the roof terrace above) you can't.

I realize there's a difference between "choose between all clothes in store or at home" and "choose between only what you just wore before getting naked", but the slightly different GUIs feel jarring. Would it hurt to use the same GUI every time? Wouldn't it in fact make the programming easier?

Oh, and:

Please add a quickbutton for "strip naked", so I as the player don't have to select three or four garments each time I want to try a "clean slate" without worrying about the wonky lewdness calculator (which still gets you different results depending in which order you wear stuff).

Easiest solution is to preprogram "strip nude" as one clothing preset, that just happens to have zero clothing.

Also, "wear everything". This is of course only practicable in situations like the roof terrace, where you likely will want to put on everything you just took off.

This of course assumes the preset selection is enabled everywhere, or you lose the quick button in situations like the roof terrace above.

Thx

You can make a nude outfit, just save an outfit when you have nothing on.
The outfit selection doesn't pop up in situations where you don't have access to your entire wardrobe, for example when you strip on the school roof and then want to get dressed, you can only select the clothes you had on you.
I'll add some qol improvement like the nude button and last outfit that should be available even when the clothing choice is restricted.

The roof scene got a fix anyway, in the next release the clothes are put back automatically.

Well... the problem began earlier at home before school (not wearing the clothes automatically after bath or shower and able to exit home naked and wet) - the roof scene without available clothes and inability to continue was just a final result, not the bug itself. However... clothes selector is probably not needed there since there is no choice anyway, so it can be automatic.

Do we know when we'll get the other locations? i.e. studio, park, gym, slums

When they're ready...?

 

[shark_inna_hat]

I'm still trying to figure out why the game lets you leave the apartment without a uniform on.

Studio and Park should be in 0.7, but they where actually planed for 0.6 so yeah...

Spoiler/Tip for how the game determines where to go on the date:

So it's not working now?

I'm still trying to figure out why the game lets you leave the apartment without a uniform on.

To me it looked like the game saved used uniform in 2 places - variables, but apartment leave checked only one. Using wardrobe UI changes both variables, but using bath removes uniform from one of the variables that is not checked - that's why the uniform was mentioned through text, but not visible on character doll and not available later with wardrobe UI.
So the 2 variable places are:
- uniform mentioned through text - that is checked when leaving apartment
- uniform on character doll - that is used by wardrobe UI, but not checked when leaving apartment
Using bath changes character doll, but not the other text variable.

it's mentioned a few posts up

it depends whether you leave your apartment with uniform or take a bath and leave home naked

The wardrobe UI calls set_clothes() the same way set_clothes() is used in the bathroom or any other node, that can't be it.
The bath/shower ends in the getting-ready-in-the-morning hub, you can only leave via tha 'go outside' option and there's a check for the uniform there. I have to check all of that again, either the function is broken or I messed something else up.

This is exactly my bug report, except that here it's extended to day 2 and day 3 since I didn't check that - I just loaded from my last save point which was day 4, but obviously other days are bugged too with wardrobe malfunctions. Good catch with other malfunctions

 

[shark_inna_hat]

I've we-written some functions to be more reliable, it looks to be working now. There will be an update in a week or two, but only when I finish events I started to work on, because I broke things in the process.

 

[DeVadder]

Really cool game. I love the whole outfit feature and writing. Just became a member on coffee and will now not look at the game for a long time to enjoy more content at once.

I loved this game!
