Oh, gosh, you are right, sorry for it! 
Perhaps because I didn't press the button long enough. 

Thanks again for the explanation!

Great to hear back from you!

So I gave the keyboard a try, and yeah, it’s way easier than using a controller... I even managed to take down the worm boss before it got mad, so it didn’t use its laser attack this time.

Having cleared the game, I think it’s a solid demo! I’d like to add two more suggestions, though:

1. Both mini-bosses can be infinitely staggered by your charged punch, leaving them unable to counterattack at all. I’m guessing this wasn’t intentional? Compared to the worm boss, they’re even weaker than the regular enemies.
2. I’d love a feature where holding down the 'down' key lets me view further below. That way, I wouldn’t have to blindly stumble into traps that are outside the screen's view.

Smooth animations with good art, I love the theme!
However, while playing on Hard difficulty and using a controller, I hit a wall with the giant worm boss.

1. The jumping mechanics need improvement. On the controller, you have to hold the jump button for at least three full seconds to reach max height, which is often the minimum required to clear certain platforms. My thumb hurts, and this makes “jumping frequently between rocks to dodge the laser” during the worm boss fight a nightmare.
2. Still on jumping—there’s no way to turn mid-jump, so your character always lands facing the same direction as when they started. This feels very clunky.
3. Another jumping issue: to drop down, you need to hold the jump button. A light press reattaches you to your original platform, preventing you from descending to lower ones. This makes “moving between platforms to avoid attacks” during the worm boss fight extremely frustrating.
4. In normal form, there’s no crouch or ability to shoot downward, which leaves you helpless against shorter ground enemies (I know you can shoot them in your smaller form, but what about before you get it?).
5. Even in the smaller form, you’re limited to horizontal shots—you can’t even aim upwards.
6. The character slides when stopping＆can't diagonal shots when stand. (The Aim-Lock mentions in the page, I tried it but it seems doesn't work.)When diagonal shots is tricky, there’s even a time-limited map that requires precise diagonal shots! OMG.This makes “trying to shoot at the two flying drones” during the worm boss fight a terrible experience.
7. When executing a charged punch, you can’t change direction immediately after charging. The punch always goes in the direction you were facing if you use the punch immediatlly. You have to wait about a second before you can begin moving, and you must hold the movement direction button to punch in that direction. Otherwise, it will punch to the original charging direction
8. The check point for the giant worm boss is way TOO far back and requires getting through a laser trap first. Combined with the poor jumping mechanics, this made facing a boss that requires multiple attempts incredibly frustrating. So, I decided to quit.

The game recommends using a controller, but for now, it feels like the keyboard might offer better contro.

Yeah, sure.
Here is the save file when I met the 1st bug.

To 七竜:

Hi author, 

I apologize for completing your game through translation software, I don't understand Japanese myself so I can only write this in English.

I really like your game!

I'm very surprised how well this game is finished with only the first chapter.

I love Soujin, I love your art style and smooth pixel animations, I love the battle system of this game, and I really like how the game plays out.

But there seems to be quite a few bugs because the engine is a bit old. 

Here are some of the BUGs I found:

1: When 火鬼Kaki joins the party, if you don't leave the forest by "leaving the forest directly", but instead choose to "walk back to the entrance" first,then end your quest, the game will start the day over again. Then the game will restart the cycle for that day instead of continuing the game normally.

2.

The game crashes when you fight the 鬼闘士タカアキ

The error report shows that the file "Graphics\Pictures\カットイン-準備中" is missing.  

3.

The game crashes when you first received a text message from 光 on your cell phone.

The error report shows that the file "Audio\SE\swing25_c.wav" is missing.

4. 

The game crashes when you enter the Golden Maze and encounter the Minotaur.

The error report shows that the file "Audio\SE\step09r.wav" is missing.

I just clear this game, and it's a very, very fun game!

Although the game engine is a bit old (honestly I was under the impression that RPG XP had even been a popular engine when I was in middle school around 2008...)

But I have to say the combat mechanics are very interesting, I like the idea of getting an extra turn of action after attacking a weak point, and the whole battle is very relaxing and enjoyable.

Plot-wise it's even more awesome.

It's also very full of content, so if you can get some basic Japanese, I highly recommend it.

=================================================

But unfortunately, if your computer's language is not Japanese, your unzipping and running the game will be unsuccessful due to the garbled text, and the above error message will be displayed as a result.   ( ↑ like this screenshot)

This game is so good that I'm going to write a tutorial detailing how to run the game successfully.

First, 

1.  Download the game ofc.  the unzip code is  namagusabouzu
2. Then you need to install the unzip software(I installed the WinRAR,
   (More detailed tutorial here: https://www.windowsdigitals.com/extract-japanese-zip-files-winrar-7-zip/
3. Right-click the zip or RAR archive, select “Show more options“, then select “Open with WinRAR“.
   

3.  In the WinRAR Extract dialog box, click “Options” from the menu bar and select Name encoding > ANSI/OEM Japanese. The file name containing Japanese characters should be corrected now.

4.If you unzip it successfully , then the correct filename should be as shown on the left, not the right.

5.

If you've successfully extracted the files, congratulations!

But that's not the end of it, we still need to make the game run in a Japanese environment.

So we need another tool to make it happen.

(The tool's info : https://github.com/xupefei/Locale-Emulator

The download link:  https://github.com/xupefei/Locale-Emulator/releases/tag/v2.5.0.1

6.Right-click the game.exe and choose this one

A furry ver. suika game!

Hello, I just update the v0.23e, you can try it again.

I think you need to delete both the save folder under the "%appdata% folder and the game folder". 

And make sure you don't have any other old versions of this game in your computer, if there are you should also delete them completely

Hello, my art and program are all self-taught, and I have not received relevant formal education, so I can’t provide good advice

There will probably not be an Italian version, because I don’t understand Italian and cannot proofread it to ensure quality.

All quests clear!
I can't believe I spent nearly 25 hours on this game lol,  great work!

PS: It seems there is a bug that after u get the memory stone if you go to defeat the final BOSS again, the ending animation won't show again, you will be kicked back to the world map instead, and your map walking sprite will disappear forever.

Make sure that you have more than 3GB space to install it, and versions higher than Android 11 may have bugs

If it still cannot be installed. You can consider downloading the PC version. Then go to Google play to download "Joiplay" to run the game

No, you can't

Yes, I use Ren'py

For Windows people: 

-C:\Users\ (Your administrator name)\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\Tvern_of_Spear-1

For  Mac people if they have a problem finding the hidden Renpy Library folder:

- open Terminal (command + space, then type Terminal in the search)

- run command "cd ~/Library/RenPy"

- run command "open ."

- there should be a list of all of their Renpy game saves, find "Tvern_of_Spear-1"

It's Axel's scene, you can get it after the Bull route ending of the tribe war storyline.

Make sure that you have more than 3GB space to install it, and versions higher than Android 11 may have bugs

If it still cannot be installed. You can consider downloading the PC version. Then go to Google play to download "Joiplay" to run the game

There is a "???" in "Drink" menu, you need to go to the undergournd city to talkt to the boss again first

Hello,  

When do you mean"when you talk to him for the first time" ?

when you wake up in the tavern or when you finish Chet's slime quest and Snow comes back?

This bug means you are using the save file before v0.10... 

They can't be used anymore since there is a inventory code rework in v0.10

Thank, I just upload it again

Although the APP is only 1GB, it may require 8/9 GB of space according to the player’s response, and basically requires Android 10.

If you can't install it ,maybe you can download the PC version, and go to google play download the "Joiplay" to play the game on it

Thx, This will be fixed in the next version, for now, pls click the "Ignore" to continue to play

Steps in the lower left corner

Tbh I don’t know why it can’t be downloaded normally on the Itch app too, so I marked it like "please download it in the browser".
