Ren'Py The Bite: Revenant [v0.9331] [madmate.games]

[estrada777]

There is a little problem, only 9 save pages here excluding autosaves & quick saves page.
Cant go further after page-9.

You are correct, 9 pages is the default number of save screens.

Well, 9 pages are the "shown" pages, the default on Ren'Py is unlimited.

The Dev must have removed the navigation keys that allows access to the extra pages. As he did to many other GUI elements. Like the Exit button (Alt-F4 it is my option). For this, besides using a console command that I don't know, I have no idea.

Peace

Here's the code. Range 1 to 10 gives 9.

            hbox:
                style_prefix "page"

                xalign 0.5
                yalign 1.0

                spacing gui.page_spacing

                textbutton _("<") action FilePagePrevious():
                    style "alt_text"

                if config.has_autosave:
                    textbutton _("{#auto_page}A") action FilePage("auto")

                if config.has_quicksave:
                    textbutton _("{#quick_page}Q") action FilePage("quick")

                ## range(1, 10) gives the numbers from 1 to 9.
                for page in range(1, 10):
                    textbutton "[page]" action FilePage(page)

                textbutton _(">") action FilePageNext():
                    style "alt_text"

This looks like a pretty decent game. Haven't played yet, but I see almost 5star reviews, lots of likes... however, I see in Patreon he's not making more than 400$/month... What am I missing?

It is maybe because the updates are sparse. Also, being a story oriented sandbox doesn't help. People that go for Sandbox, couldn't, in general, care less about story, and vice-versa. It was also plagued by a lack of warnings about the End of Content, leading to player frustration.

The game is good. IMHO it would be better in VN format since the story is rich and well written with great characters, so much so, that the Sandbox feels tacked on and completely pointless.

I would say, play it and judge by yourself. I think that in spite of it's shortcomings it is still worth it.

Peace

Story-oriented sandbox = Recipie for a failed project?

I didn't get that part. Sorry I'm not familiar with the lingo of this forum.

I'll definetly give it a go. I'm more into sci-fi spaceships all kind of stuff, but that one peeked my interest.

that depends how well dev keeps things in order and other things.

Any examples of successes and/or fails?

Heya!

With the downtime I had, I was looking over the script and decided to expand on it a bit. Anyway, the expanded one is around 80ish percent done and I expect to be done with it soon. I have a release date in mind but I'm not sharing it yet, just in case. Maybe I'll share it next week. So I'm hoping for around 3 months worth of content delivered in 4 months, with one month being a freebie. That feels like something I can live with.
That's it for now. Just wanted to keep you guys in the loop.

1. nothing unless tries to load saves before remake.
2. well this isn't that new anymore but remake is redoing all or part of game again with some changes which usually force players to play it again from beginning.
3. yes short game but changes were done under hood.
4. and 4a. there are same kind of devs on many avns.

Yes, it's part of the story. Just play and at one point it will ask you.

This game should be named "Go talk to zoey - Go check the map". I've seen games done poorly, but this... Wasted my god damn time
