It depends on the patrons actually. I could make the game run on Android, however that would take a lot of time out of the current focus of development, so far I work based on what my patrons want to be added to the game. It's not out of the question, but it's not something I plan in the meantime either. Sorry.
Hey two quick questions about the VN, the first one is if there will be NSFW content at any point in it? The second question I have is that should I become a tier 2 Patreon member, would I have access to the latest build of the game that is compatible with Windows?
First question: Yes, this game is meant for Adult Audiences there will have NSFW scenes eventually. Since artwork cost a lot of money it takes a while for me to get enough to pay for more art. There is some written content that is very much +18 already.
Second Question: Yes, you need to become a Tier2 patron to access the latest build. You can also suggest corrections with the latest build as long as you give your current Patron Name (username on Patreon) when sending the suggestion, accepted suggestions puts your name in a special list in the credits as one of the Revision team members. And every build on Patreon is compatible with Windows, Linux, and Mac. I can test the Linux and Windows versions, but I already had some Mac users there that assured me the MAC version works too.
On Patreon, you will have a new build every month, usually, the new builds come with new story segments or bug fixes, new features when they can be added, and so on.
And ah, your name will be permanently added to the credits once you become a Patron, even if you help the project for only one month, so remember that. If you want your name censored or removed from the credits you need to report that after you become a patron. :D
Anyway, I hope I have answered your questions properly if you have any more doubts don't hesitate to ask, I'll answer you as soon as I get the notification in my e-mail.
Yes there is. When you select download the site will ask you to pay something. That's completely optional just select 0USD and then click download it. Then the site will let you choose between three versions one of them is the windows version all you need is download and extract the files to a folder and play the game by executing the .exe file.
The current public build has a very complicated base resolution, and usually, some laptops and older monitors would not achieve it. It was a mistake on my part, that kind of issue was fixed on the next selected public build so I'm sure from the next update forward you won't have that issue.
By using Window-Arrows you can put your current window in any position on the screen, left, right, minimize and maximize it, and I'm sure that will work for the game since the game has a built-in code that should allow the game to work in any window resolution from 800x600.
Next month I'll have the next public build posted here, so if you wait a little longer you won't have any issues like that again.
And remember: Patreon Builds are the only ones I can actually fix bugs since it's the most recent one and the only one I truly have access to fix issues. Sorry.
hi ! I loved the VN, the characters are insanely well done ! But i don't know why, on Karnal's route, it just stops. Like, i'm supposed to click somewhere on the map, but here is nothing to click on. Is it a bug ? Or is it the end of karnal's current update ?
That depends. I'm pretty sure the game has a credit scene so if you were at the end of his route you would trigger the credits. This could be a bug. Next month I'll be uploading the next public version and I'm sure this issue will be fixed.
So far I would recommend you to choose other options to see if the route ends abruptly I may have committed a mistake there where the game is trying to go to the next route but it's not sending you anywhere.
On Wagner there is a route where you would get a crash after selecting a choice.
So save the game frequently so anytime you find issues you can go back and select another response. I can't fix this build because it's literally ten or more versions older than the current one for patrons. Sorry.
There Is no Android version right now. Creating an Android version would take a lot of time and currently the new content is selected by patrons they usually vote for bug fixes or new story content.
everytime i download the windows version, they ask me what program do i want to use to open the rar doc. but the two version for linux and max seem to be zip like regular VN.
You should have WinZip or WinRAR. Any of these can open .zip files. When I create the .zip file I use the same program for both windows and Linux. There is a possibility that you changed the file format when you downloaded the game. No matter though if you use any .zip program you can unpack the files and play them.
The link above talks about how to optimally tag your game, so people on itchio are more likely to see it (and therefore increase the likelihood of people going to your patreon).
What? Are you using windows? That looks like some configuration of your system. I just checked and I was able to download the game on both Firefox and edge.
Every four months, a new public build will be released. The game however is not nearly close to be completed. If you want monthly builds, you can check them over on Patreon by becoming a Tier 2+ patron there.
Sadly I can't give a date for the full version of the game, what I can say to you for now is this:
The speed this game will be completed depends solely on the direct support this game gets on Patreon.
And of course, keep checking for updates here, both on new builds (there's a date for the next build to be released here) and on new posts. I'll be creating small posts here to warn people of new Patreon builds releases too, since those are released monthly.
I'm glad you enjoyed the game that much, and I hope you liked the content so far! Thank you so much for playing.
I hope an Android version is released soon, because that's the only person I'd be able to play. Obviously the reason being because I only have an Android tablet currently
I will create a post eventually, but so far this is the short version:
I'm still not making a lot of money over on Patreon, and with the money I get and the time I have to spend on the game, I can't get much done. Creating an Android version means months of testing to make sure every single part of the game works flawlessly in any screen-size, and that would put the entire plot and other features of the game on hold for a while (I make this game alone).
I don't know then, when I'll be able to create an android build for this game, I'm sorry. I'll keep in mind there's a demand for Android though.
Yes, you see the build here is around 10 versions older than the current build for Patreon users. But it has a lot of content, all you need is to unpack the files in the .rar and execute them.
What SO are you using? Depending on what it is, there's nothing I can do about it.
Also, if possible, just tell me what he's saying just before the crash, this way I can pinpoint where it is and check the build here on my computer.
If I find the issue is global (at least on Windows and Linux), then I will upload a new build to make sure the issue is fixed.
Thanks for your reply!
Note: If you're using MacOS there's a chance the issue is a case sensitive on the code of the game, Windows and Linux are way less sensitive in those cases. If that's it, the only thing I can tell you is that you need to wait for the next build to be uploaded.
Ok, I found where the error is, and I'm trying to fix it but I doubt I will be able to do so. However, I already noted the issue AND I created an update post to talk about it. Just go back to the answers you had to choose and chose another answer but this one: Do you want a bite now?
There are better answers than that, and I'm sure all of those will work flawlessly for you. :D The next build doesn't has this issue but that will only updated in two months from now.
The description here sez "you won't find tiger in dog's route" but thats totally completely false as i find dog in tigers route as well as tiger in dogs route.
What I meant with that is that you won't interact with the Dog and the Tiger at the same time, and you will know which route you are because in the brief moments you can see them on someone else's route it's for about five or six dialogues before they ran away to where they want to go. That being said, you're right, I should phrase things better, gonna update the post just to be sure I explain that bit a little better.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm using Godot to create this game, and support for Android applications on Godot is a little weird and I'm focusing on releasing the game for the platform my patrons are using right now. I don't have plans to port it to android right now, but who knows what the future holds for this project.
Thanks for your time mate, and while I cannot bring the game to other platforms right now, I really hope you can try it sometime on a PC, Linux, or Mac eventually. Have a nice time! :D
Oof, sad. JoiPlay doesn’t support that engine… I wish I could play this game, but my family doesn’t have enough money to buy a PC.
Anyway, according to the what I can see in the thumbnail, this game is gonna be great.

No worries, thanks for the follow up. I look forward to trying your work
Thank you for trying it, I'm really glad people are getting interested in the project. Thanks again for your time!

when i play the vn it wont fit in the window
this happens if your window size is a weird resolution. All tou need to do is press windows key + up. That will maximize the window.
Android? 🤔
There Is no Android version right now. Creating an Android version would take a lot of time and currently the new content is selected by patrons they usually vote for bug fixes or new story content.
everytime i download the windows version, they ask me what program do i want to use to open the rar doc. but the two version for linux and max seem to be zip like regular VN.
how am i supposed to do?

Not sure if you saw this because of how comments are posted, so this is a repost:

I'd love to see this game continue to grow!

Is there coming full version in future? Just played this game 3 times trough

Is Alpha.rar is the only way to play the Visual Novel?

Um Game Crash At Me Just Know During Dog Route

This looks really interesting, unfortunately I can't download it to have a look (curse being on Android) TwT
Same

You can try using JoiPlay.
Any new updates?
Only on patreon for the time being. if you want to check more on the story and content you need to become a patron or just wait. :)
Ok, thanks for the answer :)
You're very welcome.
The dog look very familiar.... Are you the artist who drew the furry meme of the "no take, only throw" meme
The artist for the game is Wagner Mutt, you can actually click on his name on the titlescreen on the game and be redirected to his Twitter Page. :)
Merry Christmas everyone 😁
You just make friends? No romance?
You have to play it to discover yourself. ;)
However the demo only has two days, the game will have seven in the finished version, so who knows what will happen?!
I'll follow it just to make sure I receive the updates and play when I'm able because this seems promising
I've been waiting for this to come to itch.io ^-^
Just a side question though, will this VN be ported onto Android?
I have no plans for that. It all depends on the engine and on the amount of help the project gets untill the end of development.
Oh, okay ^-^
Also thank you for replying!
You're welcome, I hope you enjoy the demo! :)
May I ask what game engine you guys used?
Godot 3.1
Oof, sad. JoiPlay doesn’t support that engine… I wish I could play this game, but my family doesn’t have enough money to buy a PC. Anyway, according to the what I can see in the thumbnail, this game is gonna be great.
Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that.
I hope you can get even a Linux to try and play the game eventually. Thanks for the kind words tho!
Very good Story, And good art and music
