Horror mystery with slow burn corruption. Good one, please keep going.
I played a lot of games on Renpy, and every time skip was on the screen. So I don't understand your surprise that someone doesn't know about Ctrl key.I don't think you've ever played a Renpy game before so here's the gist of it:
-Inside Preferences, Skip "Unseen text"
-Now use the Control key to skip all the dialogue, it will stop when there are choices to pick from.
-You can use the scroll wheel on your mouse to go back or forth in the game, this applies to choices as well.
Well, it's very surprising. It was one of the first things I learned about Ren'Py: Ctrl skips. Also, a lot of games hide screen menu, so it's surprising that this is the first time you encountered such a case. Regardless, I'm happy we could help you to solve your issue with the game.I played a lot of games on Renpy, and every time skip was on the screen.

Did you use save from previous versions, or started a new game?I liked suspense/thriller-theme story so far, thank you! I encountered this an exception error when

Just as I thought. That's the problem. There was save incompatibility between episodes:I used my save from the previous version
Ignoring this error will just result in the same error down the line because this variable is still not defined. Right now the best advice I can give is to start a new game. It's still not very long game, so if you use Skip, it won't take much time.I think it would be good to state in the first post that saves are not compatible. If I use save from previous version, I get the error:

It's because this variable was not defined in the previous version and in current version it's in the code that is executed at the beginning of the new game (which you obviously skip if you load save).
Eromantis, as a feedback:
If you want (and you want!) to keep saves forward compatible (I wouldn't worry about backwards compatibility, it's not important here) between versions, you need to think very carefully of what you will need and how to add things you missed when planning. Right now it's not a big deal but if game takes hours to play, it becomes cumbersome to play from the beginning every time there is a new version. This particular issue was easily avoidable: just define variables where you need them, not earlier. However, some compatibility problems are much more difficult to solve. If you can't keep compatibility, I'd advise to create some code which checks version of the save and loads properly depending on the version of the save. If it cannot be done, it's good to give people possibility to answer a few questions regarding key decisions and jump to the new content based on the answers.
Light.how far is the corruption at the end of the current version?
I'm in the process of working on a chikan scene!You know you have a good game on your hands when I keep coming back to this thread hoping for an update.
Eromantis If you're thinking about adding chikan scenes then please do! I'm a huge fan of chikan.
On a bus or a train, whichever it is, I'd love to see them! It also fits the theme of VST because of sexual harassment and molestation.![]()
Wheee! A couple of hardcore chikan scenes would be nice in the future thenI'm in the process of working on a chikan scene!
Hope to finish it at the end of this month!When the next update?
