--Install Help--

I'm trying to do a clean install. I deleted the Tales file in Roaming/%APPDATA%, All my old downloads and the game just won't run(yes, I've read through the install guide). I don't even get an error message, just nothing happens. It also keeps doing weird stuff. Like after I extract the Zip files. Instead of being from today when I extracted them, my computer thinks the brand new files are 2 years old. All the files inside the folder have different dates too. Is this normal? I have never had something like this happen before. Even with extracting duplicate files. the date would always be whenever I extracted it. I've been trying to get this game to run for like a year with zero success. it used to work with no issue.

Also is there a difference between the Java version and the Windows version? (I downloaded the Windows version)

Note for Mac users who download the new version from Mega: When unzipped, it gives you the contents folder only. To use it, download the free version from Itch and show package contents. After that, open a new finder window, go to downloads, and drag the contents folder into the free version and click to replace what is currently there. After that, it's the classic cd then chmod to turn Contents/MacOS/TalesOfAndrogyny from a document into an executable.

Last things, first - if you read the install guide then you know there is no difference between the Java version and the Windows version... The Windows version contains the Java version, as well as the required files for the Java file to run on your PC without needing to download anything else.

You said you extracted the "zip files." You ONLY have ONE zip file - the Windows zip file. If you have more, you're doing something wrong. This is the monthly version - you need nothing else, it is the most up-to-date version of the game. If you then, subsequently, in the coming weeks, want to update the game each week and each month from this point forward, all you need is the Java file to replace the Java file in your folders.

In regards to your claim that the date of the extraction always showed up as the creation date in files you have unzipped before ... no. That is not true. The file creation and modification dates do not change to reflect the extraction date simply from unzipping. The access date does, however, take on the current date.

As for your concerns about the dates of the files inside the zip.
  • The JAR (Java) is the only one you have to make sure is correct (which, it is)
  • The JSON tells the EXE file where to find things, etc and has no need for an update since May of last year
  • The EXE runs the JAR file and, again, doesn't need updated often
  • As for the folder, when it is extracted from the zip - it's probably a setting in the developer's java export settings that doesn't get updated, either
If you have tried for over a year to get the game running on your computer - there is something wrong on your end. What OS are you using (Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, XP, Vista, ME, 2000, 98, 95, 3.15, 3.1?)

This is one of those rare games where the dev team continues to deliver regularly. Updates vary in size, but has there ever been a time where a release wasn't done for months on end? Kudos to the developer!

Not that I remember. There were times where the weekly updates were very small, cause of IRL problems or because they wrote a bigger update and couldn't finish it in time. But I don't remember a weekly that was missed.

It feels like efforts like this really need commended. There are some games that go months on end without update and the explanation is that they need a tech update or system-wide revision. It really is something to continue to produce results for years on end.

Dully, Mino, Jess, Cait, Dork Knight and Squid Wizard are the Demon King Crew, but their true leader is the Demon Matriarch, who resides above the true Demon King. (Actual lore, from a patreon post)

Yeah, this game just doesn't have major mechanics updated, so we're safe.

Is this game hosted anywhere online, like on Gamcore.com or Lewdspot.com? I tried downloading and couldn’t get it to work.

I do not want advice on how to fix that download problem, just if it is hosted.

The official links are all in the first post for this thread, other sites with the game posted you can just Google.

Do you mean to (a) play it through your browser window or (b) download from somewhere else?

For (a) - I don't think so.
For (b) - You could have Googled that to find your answer or search for it at alternative sites similar to F95 - hell you could have even gone to the developer's website to download the free version directly (without the patreon content you'd find here), you didn't need to ask us. However, that won't solve your problem. The problem is either you or your computer.

I was asking for a hosted game playable on browser, I looked through a bunch of them and didn’t find this game. Oh well, maybe it will show up eventually.
