Adventure games I've played in the past have taught me to slap items on things at all times, and boy howdy does this game hate it when you try to use items on the wrong thing.
So far I've used the kitchen key on the locked door in the bar and gotten <null>, which let you dismiss it but just came back forever, and used it 2 other places (stuck door in hallway and food table in entrance room) and gotten the error message "If you see this god help you" which has you stuck until quitting to title.
I'm on windows and just downloaded it today. I figured I'd report this, but I am definitely taking a break from applying items randomly.
ETA: Yeah I've found several more, but IDK what extra details would help? The doors aren't identifying themselves when I interact with them keyless so I'm not sure if this is something that just broke or what
Thank you for reporting this! I believe something from the new update messed this up, as this didn't happen in the old versions (and my playtesters also tried the items on everything), must've been the unfinished language-switching code. I shall look into it!
Thanks! I played last night and went to bed after getting one ending, and will be playing more later.
This game is very good! The dialogue is well written and oh my god, I can't believe you wrote different inspection dialogue for every loop, and if you had someone else in your party. I enjoyed that immensely. And the 2ndary location section was really cool. It made me feel some interesting emotions
Hi! I haven't finished the game yet, but I did want to report a bug that can potentially prevent the player from progressing. It relates to how the snack table save point resets the area when you interact with it. There's at least one instance during the third(?) loop, where the storage room where you find Vivi can get re-locked after using the key and you can't get another one!
Here are the steps to replicate the bug with File #5 of my save: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1wu1vhEM56w2-LQJ7KQsA-ZNaM2roaSUF.
I didn't have a great time when I got softlocked myself and had to backtrack from an earlier save point, but I hope this helps!
Thank you for the detailed bug report! I shall patch it right away!
Solved it! Turns out that, for this exact door (and maybe others??) its saved as "unlocked" once you enter the room, which is why it didnt save when you just used the objects. I shall upload a new version and fix all the other doors. Thank you again for reporting this!
this is so beautifully crafted from the story to the gameplay; i really hope this gets a lot more attention !! my sisters and i played until we got what we believe is the true ending, and it was well worth the entire five hours :')
