Do A pianodidn't work for me anyone got the answer please.
Never used Renpy, but I can't imagine stripping punctuation from a user input would be hard. Honestly, with the simplest bit of regex you could match any input that contained the word 'piano'.Do A piano
same thoGame seems to be broken. answer to the riddle does not work. Tried A Piano and just Piano
Try A pianoGame seems to be broken. answer to the riddle does not work. Tried A Piano and just Piano
Really - tried piano, organ, keyboard, finally had to search the thread to find "A piano" and tried "a piano" and it STILL didn't work - if puzzles like this are used it has to be more intuitive and NOT case sensitive...just saying...That riddle was the worst. You need to add "A" before answer.
Yeah, the free roam seems kind of pointless, but the VN is excellent. Really enjoying the story so far.Game is nicely written and shows some promise but... due to his inexperience the dev has managed to make a few cardinal UI/UX game design sins:
1. The riddle where you have to input your answer instead of offering choices (never a good idea to think your players have the will to guess the answer to the riddle and making them unable to progress further if they don't get the proper answer with an exact phrase and punctuation). Not to mention that in a fantasy medieval times there would not be such a thing as a piano... harp or harpsichord maybe but piano - no.
2. Free roam as dev envisioned it is a complete UI mess that will make players give up on the game immediately. It's counterintuitive and completely confusing.
In addition - the dev spent a lot of time making UI elements very very ornate hoping to provide some additional screen eye candy for the players. Wrong, it just makes UI more confusing with unnecessary embellishments. There is one old rule about this and its called KISS - keep it simple stupid.
My suggestion would be to stop wasting precious development time on the free roam and divert resources to expanding the VN part.
