In other news, chapter 45 and that trailer/preview/intro sequence was great. Already got me hooked for Kieran's arc (Right? it is her arc now? Then Ashley's or something? I vaguely remember reading that somewhere, probably the discord)

Still amazed at how this game keeps grabbing my attention. I finish an arc, I go into a state of hibernation waiting for the full release of the next arc, I get curious and I end up playing a chapter of it just to see what I'll be getting into... and then I want to play it update-by-update instead of my usual "wait for the whole season" approach. Great shit as always *thumbs up*

"Don't you dare scroll back, I'll know"

* immediately scrolls back *

* "No" option's no longer there *

Between the end of chapter 44 and 45 where it does the volume 3 recap. It's specifically during the recap.

Bro, i cannot overstate how gripped I am by the story by chapter 14

(1 edit) (+3)

You’re like 10% into current story, so you’ll have a lot more to enjoy. Volume 1 (chapters 1-15) are more like extended prologue.

Got dam. I see chapter 45 just dropped. Is it close to done?

(+3)

Not even close, 100 chapters are planned. They also get longer, peaking at ch22/23 and then most chapters remain the same length with arc finales being longer.

The reveal of his dad had me fucking rolling.

I have loved this VN for a long time. I love the characters, the story and the weirdness of it all. I especially love the whole mystery of Tsukiko and Cro! Can they really be trusted? Who knows!!

Not sure I said it at all, but one of my favorite parts of all this story, is the fact that CJ is SPECIFICALLY the son of Chad Thundercock and everyone is special to CJ with their bond, and the story is legit somehow perfection with this

Um So it seems the APK is not here anymore so ye uh ye

(3 edits)

No longer needed. It’s now part of installer packages. When all assets are installed it will automatically request installing main game apk, which is packaged inside installers. Made this change because a lot of people kept installing it without assets or installed assets without it, so now they can’t. If you still have old installers but don’t have main apk - download any of the new installers, run old ones first and then run new one - it will install main apk. Or just download new ones.

got a runtime error when trying to download that way? all recources download just not the app

(1 edit)

That sometimes happens because antivirus on your phone deletes apk immediately after it’s extracted during installation. I can recommend joining discord and we’ll give you the packaged apk.

okay thanks where is the discord?

Boys.. we need news

Ch45 for patrons at the end of this week, public 7 days after.

(+1)

ty plus i enjoy your game so much

Ch 45?????  I'm incredibly entertained because I thought the entire game was the prologue and did a "that's it?" at the end. 6 months later, due to some review noise, I'm revisiting, and I guess i'll find out what i think after I check it out for, apparently, mostly the first time.

(+2)

By render count, the prologue is about 2% of the game. Lots more to enjoy.

Shake it up is all that we know
Using the bodies up as we go
I'm waking up to fantasy
The shades all around aren't the colors we used to see
Broken ice still melts in the sun
And times that are broken can often be one again
We're soul alone
And soul really matters to me
Take a look around

You're out of touch
I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

You're out of touch
I'm out of time (time)
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Reaching out for something to hold
Looking for a love where the climate is cold
Manic moves and drowsy dreams
Or living in the middle between the two extremes
Smoking guns hot to the touch
Would cool down if we didn't use them so much, yeah
We're soul alone
And soul really matters to me
Too much

You're out of touch
I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

You're out of touch
I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

You're out of touch
I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

You're out of touch
I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

You're out of touch
Time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around

You're out of touch
I'm out of time
Not around

You're out of touch
I'm out of time

How do i exactly play...

Dude, just started this game. WHAT THE HELL!! Why is the story so good? AND THE CURVE BALLS DUDE!! Just as I'm getting invested in something heart wrenching, IT HITS YOU WITH [won't spoil] AND HIGH QUALITY VOICE ACTING??  I'm only on chapter 2 and I'm loving it.

I'm invested in this bro wtf. High quality.

You don’t need it. Those are for people who don’t want to redownload entire game when we update. They are supposed to update previous version.

I miss the time when i discovered this gem and started playing it

Por qué no me deja descargar los primeros 2 instaladores en android me dice que están prohibidos

Try joining discord and getting alternative MEGA links. Itch sometimes fails large file downloads.

There is a moment for make choices in the game or not? 🥲

(+3)

It's a 30 hour game, they show up. But if you want the random pointless choices a lot of games shove in for filling you won't find them.

Thanks for your answer

i will try it in a few days

I tried to install on Android but it keeps saying "App not installed as app isn't compatible with your phone"

Your android device needs to be able to run32bit programs.

Well that's a bummer, I'm using a device with Snapdragon 8 gen 3 and that doesn't support 32 bit programs :(

It doesn’t have hardware support but there are solutions like Tango most just choose not to use these solutions because google deprecated 32 bit support for no good reason. Google goes even further and kills 32 bit support on hardware perfectly capable of running 32 bit applications natively.

Question, is there an lgbt content in this?

(+2)

Pan-Poly as fuck, no guy on guy though if that's what you're after

Ah okay, gotcha

Do I have to download all the installers?, or just choose one? 

(+2)

It literally says first thing in the instruction that you need to download all of them.

My fault, I didn't read the instructions before downloading 

Is chapter 45 coming out on February?

(+3)

The schedule for 2024 is up on patreon, Tropicali will be getting an update for patrons, then public in February. OoT chapter 45 will be out for patrons on Feb 22nd, then the public on the 1st of March

(+5)

My bro ! Just turn this into an anime or manga at this point, the story is a 10/10. I don't even know how I could go back to normal VN after that

(+1)

Also, should have named your MC JoJo at this point xD

Here's my review after playing 23 chapters.

Disclaimer: I don't usually watch anime. So I needed some time in the beginning to get used to the style of storytelling and the bit more "over the top drama" (compared to other stories). Having said that, OoT grew on me really quickly! I like all the characters, they are interesting and have a lot of backstory that motivates their actions. I feel like the trauma of certain characters is depicted really well, like it will always come back to haunt you (especially after such a long time being exposed to these thoughts).

The world-building itself can be confusing at times (that's kinda the point I think), but I love the sense of mystery and hearing them talk about their own theories and explanations. The idea of being connected and the center message of overcoming any evil by sticking together is honestly very beautiful and makes me want the group to succeed. It makes me genuinely care about their relationships and that they are not mad at each other. Adding the imminent danger, I feel anxious for them whenever something supernatural happens. No other game made me feel this way so far (I also don't usually write comments like these). The H-rated scenes are honestly secondary for me, like they are a nice reward, but mostly for emotional reasons. It's a bit embarrassing to admit, but I often needed to stop myself from playing because it would take up too much time.

Now, what I didn't like about the game so far is the use of homophobic and ableist slurs by CJ (f**, r*****, ...). I guess later he sorta redeems himself because he doesn't care about being in love with a "boy". I understand that he should be seen as being a bit dumb, but this makes it hard to sympathize with him.

Other than that I enjoy that CJ is not the only main character and that we get some insight into many different characters. I also like that it's not a "typical" harem game where the MC doesn't really consider the feelings of the other girls whenever he does something with a new one.

I'm anxious to play the rest of the game, but I don't want to burn through it too quickly ;) I love the art style, the characters (especially Vic, Sarah, and Jamie), the story, the music, the amount of details, and basically everything else! Thanks for creating this game.

(+3)

If you've completed chapter 23 then you're only 25% of the way through the current content, so don't worry about running out. Chapters start getting longer on average after 23 with arc finales (29, 37, 44) being the size of 3 or 4 chapters at once.

(+1)

Hell yeah, that's great to hear!

(+6)

should i play this?

(+3)

Yes.

(+3)

YES. Top 1 VN even if you take out the "sexy" content.

Story Anon,

There truly aren't any words that can describe the experience I have just underwent exploring this creation you have sincerely blessed us with. I have not, in all of  the Visual Novels I have ever read, had such a blast riding this rollercoaster of a game. You want comedy? You got it. You want to cry? Done. Fear? Oh yeah. You name it, this story has it.


Now the characters, my god. They have just that, character. Backstories that you can only sympathize and feel for, truly. The story they each possess and the way that you are able to actually connect with each and every one of these characters is honestly amazing. I can honestly say that there is not a single character in this story that I have disliked, flaws and all. They all connect well with each other. It's difficult to put into words just how much I positively I feel for them all. Especially Theresa and Leah.


The art, the effects,  the music. Perfection. The attention to detail put into this Novel is just ridiculous. (In a positive way of course) It just leaves you yearning for more and more and feeds you the insane amounts of dopamine that you would hope every Visual Novel can provide. 


This is a masterpiece that I will ensure to follow until the very end, and I NEED more. I almost didn't want to reach the end of the latest chapter.


Thank you Story Anon for an experience that I will truly never forget.

(+3)

thank you, glad you’ve enjoyed it! Much more to come soon!

(+1)

I'm debating between playing the game again at Chapter 45 or wait until Chapter 50. I stopped at 40 so it's just a question of how much I want to torture myself because the story is. that. fucking. good. Like it's in my top 3 if not number 1.

Thank you, glad you’re enjoying it!

Teresa’s arc ends at chapter 44, so that’s probably a better stopping off point than 40.

That is EXACTLY why I was worried about reading too far into it. Being left on a cliff hanger and having to wait for the next chapter. Thank you, Story Anon.

(+1)

No cliff hanger this time, promise.

No cliff hanger. Much sadness.

(+1)

Don't worry when we get chapters 50+51 in December I'm sure it'll be the mother of all cliffhangers.

Holy hell this story is good

is there or will there be a linux version?

(1 edit) (+1)

There is. It’s called Windows version. I made this reply multiple times but - just use some modern Wine variant, it works perfectly fine.

Why not build native version? Because:

  1. Linux has no stable ABI or API (outside of kernel syscalls and POSIX but on their own they are useless to make anything for enduser). Can’t rely on anything being there and working in a few years - most games from initial steam push for games on Linux that tried to make native build will not work today, only the ones that relied on Wine would work. Look at native apps/games from just a few years ago. The most stable ABI and API on Linux is ironically Win32.

  2. I know for a fact that at least one of the things would be broken on native Linux version and it’s not worth to fix it for 1.5 users that will use it. That’s screen manager that manages render resolution and allows resizing windows. While code should be crossplatform there are some nuances with how Unity classes work on different platform and nuance on Linux is that they return nonsense results on Linux when multiple monitors are connected. As far as I can tell when asking for screen resolution it just returns X framebuffer size which is just sum of current resolutions of all screens. Which is completely useless information.

  3. That’ll be 4th platform to build for. It’s already a pain to package for 3 platforms, adding another one to the list would only make sense if userbase is not 1.5 users.

Best part is all of these points are solved by using Wine - it has stable ABI and API because Windows doesn’t break compatibility on a whim and all the pain points I described earlier fall onto the devs of Wine instead. And because it would just run windows application point 3 is also not an issue. And because Wine is not an emulation, it just translates Windows APIs into native syscalls or calls to modern libraries and allows running windows executables and load windows libraries - it’s not really slower than native application.

Running on Wine can have issues with videos if you have older hardware but that can be fixed by reencoding and replacing one file. If there are any other issues - these can be fixed and it’d be much more productive than trying to maintain and fix issues in native build.

weird that you say there's no user base and yet you complain about making this reply multiple times. guess there's more than 1.5 users after all. 

anyway I don't want to install wine because everything else I use works just fine natively. no probs though, plenty of games on this site which work fine on linux

(1 edit) (+2)

3 users in a year. Compared to for example at least 15-20 reports in a week when there was a bug in OSX build. And one of those asked for build because videos were broken in Wine due to outdated hardware that doesn’t fully support Vulkan. It’d take weeks to implement something that no one needs only to give WORSE experience than what you would have with Wine because they keep updating their software while recompiling unity player is simply impossible - it’s closed source, so if there is a compatibility break in API or ABI that player uses it would require full engine upgrade to fix. On the other hand Wine version will never break and if something breaks there almost always be a working fix for it. Distro maintainers also usually fix all compatibility issues with software they package while 3rd party stuff - if it doesn’t work you can’t do anything which isn’t a problem with Wine.

idk how or why dude doesnt use wine lol such a great tool for linux... Anyway just wanted to say you can also run a lot of windows games on linux by using steam and hit add non steam game select the exe for the game and then once you add it right click it in steam hit properties and turn on proton compatability. Then it will run just fine.

Does anyone know how to unlock the third scene in chapter 35?

(2 edits)

By helping Kieran’s sisters in chapter 2. I’m not sure how you can miss it now, game literally has built-in markers leading to all extra missable content and marker that shows which options continues story so you don’t accidentally continue before checking out everything.

(+2)

I always come back after a few chapters have been released, and man its always so good.

I'm always left speechless, seriously good work! Excited for the future as always!

where at in the file do i start the game? on mac

Just unpack zip and it should contain app package. If you don’t have app package in the download - you downloaded patch instead of the game. Patches are supposed to be copied inside app package.

HELP!!! i just download the latest version for android and it appears this! Help please

You only installed game, it needs assets. Make sure you followed installation instruction on this page correctly.

I got the same bug but I downloaded the Windows version on my laptop

This is not a bug. This is a mistake you made when upacking game or with download. You download must be corrupted if it’s missing scripts folder. Or you got a different error.

Nope, same error, latest Windows download. The scripts folder isn't missing, game just can't seem to find it

(4 edits)

Do you have invisible characters (such as EN SPACE or NBSP) in folder path where game is - specifically at the start or the end of some folder name? If so this isn’t bug with the game, this is a bug with .NET/Windows API and you should move game to a different folder. And if that’s not the case I recommend checking if archive you downloaded wasn’t corrupted. If it was I recommend redownloading using download manager.

(3 edits)

I need help, when I start to install the game and finish downloading, an error occurs and a website appears with a message written This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below. <Error> <Code>ExpiredRequest</Code> <Message>Request has expired</Message> </Error> What could this error be, can anyone help me?

Try using download manager if your download fails, if that doesn’t work - there are mirrors on F95 or on discord.

First of all there are spoilers for the start of this game in this comment so if you haven't even downloaded the game yet and were thinking don't read this trust me. So for the intro of this game when I was reading about how Victoria's mother died it reminded of something very sad so while I was thinking about that I was progressing with the story I got to the point where Sarah said if CJ wanted to meet his father just keep look at the stars or whatever and remember I was still think about the thing I was sad about and out of fucking nowhere Chad Thundercock descends from the fucking stars and I just FUCKING lose it and start yelling to myself how stupid this, anyways I just wanted to share my experience with the game for the first few minutes I started playing and I look forward to playing the rest of the game.

Sorry, so hard to download on android, after 1.2gbit started slowing download, stopped. 

Help please...

Try using download manager. If it’s not possible for some reason - try joining discord and I will give alternative links. F95 also has multiple mirrors but it’s usually outdated for android, although I think it’s up to date for current version.

hello I need some help. I updated my game but messed up and now my save files are lost. I was on chapter 41 and want to play the next few chapters but now I’m stuck at the beginning so far away haha. Can I get a save file or something? Hit me up on here or you can hit me at @bungdumpster on discord. I can’t join the server cause I only have internet on my phone atm. Thanks.

I haven't gotten too far into the game, but I have to recommend it because of the chad moment.

(+1)

only on chapter 4 and its great so far, but please tell me you have a spotify playlist or something. the sound track is just pure vibes and im loving it

(+1)

There is no spotify but there is a full youtube playlist available made by a discord member, you can join discord to get the link.

Have you tried pressing M or checking if you have sound muted in settings? You might’ve pressed M by accident which mutes game sound (it might be a different key for you depending on if you changed input settings or have default binds). If that doesn’t work then enable Debug Console in game settings in system tab at the bottom and open it in the game with ~ key (default, can also be different depending on your input settings). If you can see audio channels being created and audio clips being played on them (shown in runtime info in top left corner) and no errors in console log - check if maybe you muted game application in system mixer. And if there are errors in console log related to missing assets - check if your antivirus didn’t quarantine asset bundles for some reason.
