Use of the limitation
I thought trying to learn the "language" of dinosaurs through their behaviors and sounds would suit the theme. Originally, I intended for it to be a proper learn then match game, but I didn't have the skill to do so in the time allotted.

Also struggle to play it. Was there no .pck file extracted? I missed that my first submission :)

No, RPG Maker XP games apparently are a bit difficult to share. I can't make it into a webgl or html file, and I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing wrong with the downloadable. I'll keep looking for a solution.

Update me if you get it to work. Would love to play and rate it! 

Developer

I messed around with everything I could think of and reuploaded the file. If this doesn't work, I won't be working on it more for the time being and I'm sorry. The last thing I could think of as an issue would be not having the XP RTP (found here, it's free to download). I'm not well versed enough in file types to know if there's anything else I can do now.

Hey, unfortunately I was unable to play the game. It seems the download is just an executable file. Is this intentional? Let me know if there is something I am doing wrong

Developer

Shoot, others said it was fine after downloading, but I've been troubleshooting so I can't say I'm surprised. I've never exported an RPGM project before so I've been struggling with it. It's not in your downloads folder?

All I see is this .exe when I download: https://i.imgur.com/hN5lIIK

Usually the game will have like other data files besides just the executable.

Developer

That is indeed all I uploaded, there was no file folder attached to it, everything got compressed into that .exe . If it doesn't function, I'll ask around some RPGM spaces to see where I went wrong!

Be sure to let me know if you figure it out. When you download it yourself and try to run the executable does it work?

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah, I just tested it! It gave me the "do you trust this?", then extracted. I just clicked the "show in files" on my downloads and clicking into the folder Songs of the Snow, then opening the "Game" file ran the game just fine on my end.

For some reason when I try to run it nothing happens, nothing appears and there is nothing in my taskbar either.

If possible, try to add an html or webgl version so you can avoid the download.

Developer

Sadly, RPG Maker XP can't really make it into an html or webgl version, from what I've gathered asking if it's possible with other users. I'm really sorry, I'll work to at least make it a more functional downloadable.
