When I lost to the giant snake in through the tunnel in the forest, retrying the battle and winning lead to me getting the dialogue twice and 2 sewing kits instead of just the one. I was playing 0.3.3c if that helps.
Edit: This seems to apply to all post-fight dialogue
I previously had a glitch that made all of the text unreadable, but fixed it by going into the www folder, then save, and then deleted the file#rpgsave(s). Besides that, this game is kind of amazing.
Oh? Is this the fix to this bug? Several users were reporting it and I was unable to figure out what was causing it. To clarify, the file#rpgsave(s) files were causing the strange text bugs and you needed to remove them and start a completely fresh save? This would make older saves incompatible again if this bug occurs for you then.
Great work with the progress so far, good to see you keeping at it! I love that the girls become the thing that they lose to (my favorites are the slime and tanglevine endings) was a bit disappointed you didn’t take the spider ones further but oh well. Definitely looking forward to see what you come up with next! Will we see some fun stuff from succ or bust? A succubus Mira and Co. sounds sexy ;) blue skin and all
Really love this game! It has a very unique fighting system and your Game Over scenes are very enjoyable and well written. I check if there's been an update like once a week.
One thing I noticed is that the key item that allowed you to view battle sprites/Game Over scenes in the overworld is seemingly gone, or I haven't figured out how to unlock it. Was it removed?
In terms of the gallery item, you should have the Key Item called "Ankhrono Replica" in your key items which you receive after beating the Forest Path's boss. Unless something weird happened with the coding this item should still be there. You'll use it and get teleported to a different area where you'll walk left to get to the gallery area. It requires you to defeat the boss of the corresponding areas in most cases to unlock the sprites and scenes that are available.
Hey, actually figured it out. There is indeed a bug for me where it only unlocks the SECOND time you exit to the world map through the Slime Queen boss area. And since I usually only left it once per playthrough, I didn't unlock it.
Is it possible to add in-game gamepad support? I don't really want to have to download additional software to bind gamepad buttons to keyboard keys. Especially since any 'free' software I find that does that ends up just being a trial and stops working in 7 to 31 days.
If it's not possible, don't fret, I'll manage to figure out something eventually.
I use a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller via Bluetooth on Windows 10, and it doesn't seem to respond to button inputs at all.
Unfortunelately, I can't afford to buy a PS4 controller to have a compatible controller. If I could, that money would go to fixing my SSBU Switch bundle Collector Edition JoyCons, or my own game project, depending on the source of the income.
I do have a Logitech Gamepad, however, the XBox button layout it uses is different from the Switch button layout, so if it does work, I will repeatedly get A\B and X\Y mixed up, which can cause numerous problems…
However, all this aside, I am happy to know that there are controllers that do work, but am annoyed the only one I have with the correct layout does not.
Sadly, Steam explicitly blocks input to external programs… which is a problem, since if I close Steam, (Y) is [Z], (A) is [X] instead of [Z], and the whole thing is very confusing…
Thanks for offering some support in regards to controllers. I'll need to look into controller support/alternate controls a bit as I don't normally test with them in mind.
Steadily working on new Game Over art. Got two done and am about halfway through another. So, at the moment there would be 10 new images with small stories to be added but that's all for the moment.
After the next game over image (or maybe one more to finish out the second area) I might switch back to working on new battle sprites for the next area to mix things up a bit.
Ironically it was the Game Over image set that was giving me the most trouble due to the nature of drawing rope bondage (it can get out of hand with all the knots/perspective).
In terms of the potential area they lead to, it isn't as planned out as it would be a side area vs main story line, so it is on the back burner vs the other areas for now.
One suggestion I have is to have enemies other than the slimes and bosses drop sellable items. Granted, the amount of money you give us for completing the Succ or Bust toys is more than enough but it might be something you want to think of as you give us access to more powerful but expensive items.
Oh! I made the items for enemies similar to the slime cores but apparently never actually added them to the enemy table. Thanks for catching that. I will go over the items again and fix it in a bug fix build later.
So what are you going to focus on now? In your post you mentioned wanting to expand the Khrono tomb and I remember you mentioned adding another area on the way to the tomb. But do you plan on focusing on finishing the game overs for the current enemies for now and moving on to new parts later? You said that you like creating sprites the most you probabl don't want the backlog to become too much.
BTW, you'll probably wnat to make some adjustments to the memories room in the ankhrono replica. You're runing out of room to place sprites.
Maybe create a room for each area that looks like said area? Along with one room for miscellaneous scenes like the bondage toy testing scenes.
The current focus was a slight break as bug reports rolled in and a few other forum posts were made for visibility this weekend.
For the upcoming week I will probably be writing the Tumblevine Game Over sequence as the art is finished for that one.
For the Khrono Tomb, the current plan is to make that area larger and include some new enemies that will be encountered 'outside' the tomb before getting inside. This allows me to still do the planned area on the way to the tomb but make the later stages a bit larger.
Since I hit a bit of a roadblock with some of the game overs I was working on and quickly created the all the images for the new events in a matter of a few days due to having a good time with them I will probably start other game overs and tackle the ones that gave me issue after I get some others done.
For the Gallery/Memory Room, there was some thought to making separate rooms for the areas and other scenes. For ease of use though, there would probably be an option to go to a room where everything is pooled together rather than going through/walking to the room you wanted as some galleries are just menu based instead.
I'm not as familiar with tfgamesite, would something of this nature fit well there? I thought it was mostly about transformation of various types. There have been a few suggestions to post on various sites like f95zone and ulmf. Since this is mostly a personal project there isn't a set release schedule so I worry about it getting too much visibility before it is really in a good, playable state.
Yes, this is a transformation based games ! I think it can interest many people of this site. And your game is really qualitative, and I think few peoples can help you with rpg maker on the forums if you need
It seems like I would need to be a bit active on their forums in able to post content so I will need to be somewhat active in order to post. I made a recent post on ULMF so I will have to see what I can do. Thanks for the info!
Hey, just went through all of the endings in the viewing room again, it seems that the goo sprites for selena have a shadow of some other image of her faintly in the background for them, not sure if its intentional but I thought you should know. Keep up the good work :)
No, that was unintentional and an artifact from trying to keep sprite sizes the same. Thanks for letting me know! Hopefully it will be cleaned up in the next build!
Will the Silk Hole and Red Goo traps have their own game overs?
I can see the Silk Holes leading into the spider girl game over by having the spider girls coming and fishing the trio out of the traps, but the Red Goo seem to be removed from the spider girls despite being in their cave.
To be clear, I'm assuming that the Silk Hole is a trap intentionally set by the spider girls and not simply a random byproduct of magic like I'm assuming that snake was in the slime area.
Hopefully there is still work happening on this project, checking the twitter and deviantart links without many updates is kind of a bummer. It must take a lot of effort to develop this game but a little checkin every so often would be appreciated. Keep up the good work :)
Yes! Work is still continuing but things are a little busy this month and next with some IRL commitments. I'll try and keep pulse updates more frequent with small previews. Thanks for checking in!
I tend to post some Works In Progress art on my DeviantArt page and occasionally the twitter feed as well. I'm working on the battle sprites for the current area and then will be doing some Game Over/Events for the current areas that are missing them.
Yes it is! Progress was a bit delayed due to being a solo project but I am working on finishing up the remaining battle sprites for this area and will be moving onto the next. I'll make a more detailed post about it with the new build but moving forward it will be a bit more of a WIP vs providing a fully finished area with each milestone build. More on that in the dev blog to come.
Good to hear, I look forward to every single bit of it. I really like the clean aesthetic you have going on with the art style and the twitter went kind of dead for a while so I was worried! Thank you for the reply.
Thank you for your comment! I have uploaded a ZIP file as the main file with the recent bug fix build. I have never used the desktop application before, so thank you for letting me know RAR was incompatible! I hope you have a nice rest of your week.

Thanks for the bug report! I'll look into that as I think the logic for losing to an enemy and retrying is missing a few steps to avoid repeating.
I previously had a glitch that made all of the text unreadable, but fixed it by going into the www folder, then save, and then deleted the file#rpgsave(s). Besides that, this game is kind of amazing.

That seemed to be the case. After I deleted the saves, the bug was fixed.
THANK YOU~ i've been dealing with this bug for quite a few updates and thought something was wrong with my computer,
Great work with the progress so far, good to see you keeping at it! I love that the girls become the thing that they lose to (my favorites are the slime and tanglevine endings) was a bit disappointed you didn’t take the spider ones further but oh well.

i love this game! more bondage and more barefoot!
thanks!

I use a controller just fine. PS4 controller, windows 10, and DS4Windows to support the controller.
I use a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller via Bluetooth on Windows 10, and it doesn't seem to respond to button inputs at all.
Unfortunelately, I can't afford to buy a PS4 controller to have a compatible controller. If I could, that money would go to fixing my SSBU Switch bundle Collector Edition JoyCons, or my own game project, depending on the source of the income.

However, all this aside, I am happy to know that there are controllers that do work, but am annoyed the only one I have with the correct layout does not.
If you have steam installed see if the switch controller support extends to external applications.
Sadly, Steam explicitly blocks input to external programs… which is a problem, since if I close Steam, (Y) is [Z], (A) is [X] instead of [Z], and the whole thing is very confusing…
Think I'll stick to keyboard…
Thanks for offering some support in regards to controllers. I'll need to look into controller support/alternate controls a bit as I don't normally test with them in mind.
Hey, any news for future update :D

Oh, thanks :)
Good work, can't wait !
Loving these new updates keep it up
Thanks! Hopefully we'll keep this train rolling.
When do you think you add game over/an area for the sniper ? This is my favorite enemy
Ironically it was the Game Over image set that was giving me the most trouble due to the nature of drawing rope bondage (it can get out of hand with all the knots/perspective).

It looks good but it only seems to run a few minutes before crashing, Never mind The problem was on my end and is fixed now
All right, please let me know if you encounter any issues. Was it something related to the game or your computer out of curiosity?
My computer apparently, all I did was reset it and it was fixed
Hey, your game is really good, I love it ! Can't wait for future update !
And I think you can post it on tfgamesite for more visibility :)
Thanks you !
Thanks!

EDIT: I posted a thread in the Non-TF Game
It seems like I would need to be a bit active on their forums in able to post content so I will need to be somewhat active in order to post. I made a recent post on ULMF so I will have to see what I can do. Thanks for the info!
I have seen your post in the forum
To post a game, you need to connect on the forum and return on the home page of the site (where there are games)
Under the "browse by" square, on the right of page, you have "submit a game"
And on this page your can post the game, and after you can create a topic on the forum "in developpement" with the ID of the game page.
If you need more help, i'm here :)

will there be new gameovers in the next vrshin
I'm trying to get some new ones done for the next version. Currently, there are a few other scenes being worked on for the new side area as well.
cool looking fored to it

I seem to be assuming a lot of things.
Hello! Thanks for the comment!
The Silk Hole and Red Goo traps will have their own game overs. You're not too far off with these assumptions, so good job! : >
Sweet, looking forward to them :>
Hopefully there is still work happening on this project, checking the twitter and deviantart links without many updates is kind of a bummer. It must take a lot of effort to develop this game but a little checkin every so often would be appreciated. Keep up the good work :)
Yes! Work is still continuing but things are a little busy this month and next with some IRL commitments. I'll try and keep pulse updates more frequent with small previews. Thanks for checking in!
Even a little update letting us know small things like that is nice once in a while. Looking forward to that clothless tanglevine gameover ;)
Any progress on any further updates? Am hoping to see more
I tend to post some Works In Progress art on my DeviantArt page and occasionally the twitter feed as well. I'm working on the battle sprites for the current area and then will be doing some Game Over/Events for the current areas that are missing them.
Do you have links to both so I can follow? Am eager to continue forward on it heh.

Is this still being worked on? I really liked the direction the clothless vine plant game over was headed. Keep up the good work :)
Yes it is! Progress was a bit delayed due to being a solo project but I am working on finishing up the remaining battle sprites for this area and will be moving onto the next. I'll make a more detailed post about it with the new build but moving forward it will be a bit more of a WIP vs providing a fully finished area with each milestone build.
