Lol, try this:

1. Press Enter
2. Type 'teleport 0 10 0'
3. Press Enter again
4. Save at the Juice Fountain

Haha sorry, it's not for everyone. I seem to be less sensitive to things like motion sickness and it shows in the games I make. This is an old project of mine but I am still learning to make things more palatable for everyone ^^

Heya, he's on Swirly's side. 

I will try to make that more clear with events coming in the future, but basically he lets you defeat the Clog since he fails to do it himself. He then calls you a fool, as the return of Swirly D is bad news for most people on the surface.

Yes, I have thought about making items recyclable. It's a bit difficult, so I've dragged my feet implementing that feature, but I am strongly considering it. I want to give Hoagen a workshop where you can perform crafting functions such as those.  I want to add shops too.

And yes, you can slay the British Snake, Mrs. Slitherss. Just head back up to Juice School and you'll find her.

Also your English is great!

Heya, thanks for asking! Yeah it's been a little slow lately, as I've been working mostly on bug fixes and planning the next steps. I've also been quietly experimenting with ideas for a pretty big content update and I'm hoping to release a small part of it in the next few weeks, as long as all goes well.

Hey there, thanks for letting me know! Darn, I was pretty confident that version was going to work. I'll make some more changes and let you know here when the next build is ready to try.

Just to confirm, does JG look like this in your steam library?

<3 Thanks, always glad to hear it! I'll keep working on it.

Hi there! I appreciate your initiative, but I can't allow advertisement of non-official discords on the public JG channels that I maintain.

We previously had a discord server, but it got too big and I did not have the resources to properly moderate it. It became unsafe, so I ended up locking it down after a couple years and currently do not have the resources to maintain another one. Since I can't currently support a new discord, I think the right thing to do is delete links like these from being posted on the community platforms that I do maintain.

I hope you understand why I had to delete this link, and thanks again for taking the time to start one, despite this outcome. Sorry.

Hey there, have you had a chance to try the new build yet? Let me know if it works ^^

All right, thanks. I thought that might happen, dang.

I've got another version ready to try. Just restart steam if you need to, and play.  This time it should work lol

Hello, thanks for waiting.

I have a new version ready to try!
It should automatically update, but if it doesn't, try restarting Steam.

I think the solution was actually super simple, but it took me a long time to figure out. It should just work now, but if it doesn't, let me know! There's one more thing I can try, and since its simple, you won't have to wait so long ^^

The game was originally sposed to be a Dark Souls clone with a bunch of miscellaneous ideas and scenes from my dreams.  It may have drifted a bit from the soulslike inspiration when I enabled flight lol. I've always the same general plan for the next chunk of the story, although I change my mind on little details frequently.

Heya--
I'm investigating and should have another test version ready in the next few days. 

Thanks for your interest in helping!

That is bizarre, I'll work on it and post here again when I figure something out. Thanks for letting me know!

Hmm, so does the healthbar appear when you open the Inventory?

Also, do any buttons appear when you hit Escape?

Are you saying you cannot see your health bar unless you open the inventory? That is not good lol, could you post a screenshot?

You can change the screen resolution in the settings menu, under Graphics. That will likely help.

Lol that's a good idea. I do want to add a gladiator style arena to the game soon, stay tuned.

Lool that is adorable ^^
I'm still working on Swirly D, sorry it is taking so long! I'm hoping to have him make an appearance after another story update or several.
Thanks, you too! :)

Actually the update is ready now, so just restart Steam and you should be good to go.

That's fantastic! Thanks so much for testing.

Lol yes the changes introduced some new bugs, I'll be pushing another update to the beta version that fixes:

  • Compass not showing
  • Speech GUI unresponsive
  • Some text issues

Just wait about an hour and restart Steam again, it will update at that point. Let me know if you find any more bugs after that ^^

I'm not sure, although I may have found a solution, would you mind testing it? 

I've added a new post at the bottom of this thread about how.

Alright, here comes attempt #2

Would you mind testing it and letting me know if the buttons finally show up?

You can access this test build in Steam by:

  1. Right click Juice Galaxy in your library
  2. Click Properties
  3. Open the Betas tab
  4. Select 'beta - beta' using the Beta Participation dropdown
  5. Restart Steam
  6. Open the game

You shouldn't need a password this time, and Juice Galaxy should look like this in your Library list:

Let me know if it works for you, it would be a huge relief for me ^^ thanks!

Thank you for the quick answers! I'm sorry I haven't managed to track down the cause yet. I do test using my own mac, but I haven't been able to reproduce the issue on it. I will continue banging my head against the wall regarding this issue and post here again when I think I've found something.

If you'd like to receive a notification when I post here again, you can subscribe to this thread using the link at the top of the page.

Hi there! This post is a bit dated and the beta track doesn't currently differ from the main track. Unfortunately, the experimental changes I had in there did not solve the original issue, and I'm still trying to find a solution. Could you describe your experience a bit more?

  • Are you on Mac?
  • Are you having the same issue? (Buttons are invisible, but can be clicked?)
  • What buttons are you using to force quit? Do they work for you?
  • Did a previous version of Juice Galaxy work for you?

Thanks for your time and sorry for the inconvenience. :)

Thank you ^^ I will!

<3

Yup! There are some small differences, but the build is the same. There was a month where Steam was ahead by one update, but that's over. 

I will continue to release updates simultaneously on Steam and Itch.

Correct.

No Swirly D yet, he in the future tho!

Thanks for your patience while I'm working on the next chapters ^^

Hey there, thanks for the report. Sorry to hear this!

Can you provide any other details that can help me figure out what went wrong?

  • What platform (Windows/Mac/Linux) are you playing on?
  • Have you used the in-game console to spawn items or for any other purpose?
  • Do you remember where you were/what you were doing when the monitor shut off?
  • What leads you to suspect the pixellation filter caused the crash?
  • What exactly happened when your monitor went off?
    • Did your monitor just go black?
    • Did anything show up on the screen after?
    • Were there still sounds playing?

Thanks for your time.

Did you lose your character too, or just their loot? Save files often disappear after being corrupted in some way (due to bugs or using the console).

Thanks for the report.

What platform (mac/windows/linux) are you on? They should transfer automatically-- here is a video on how to find them if you are on windows:

Alright I think I've found the solution actually! I've pushed it to the Steam beta version.

Would you mind trying the steam beta when you get a chance?

This is different from the pre-release beta. To enable it:

  1. Right click Juice Galaxy in your steam library
  2. Click 'Properties'
  3. Click the 'Betas' tab
  4. Select 'beta-beta' from the dropdown box

Steam will then update Juice Galaxy. You may have to restart Steam.

Ah yeah if the file is empty then it's gone, sorry! 

This can happen if the savefile becomes invalid due to a bug, or console actions like setting your levels or juice to 9999999999999999999.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Please let me know if it happens again!

hehe heck yeah, enjoy!

Have you gone through the trapdoor in the evil cabin? 

Hmm, yeaah it could be the infinite juice xD when there is an error loading your savefile, the game just skips it. You should still be able to find the savefile on your computer, and then open it in notepad to edit it and fix any crazy values. 

Are you on windows? Here's instructions on how to find the savefiles on windows:

Remember to make a backup before editing, just in case. You could also send it to juicegalaxybugs@gmail.com and I can look at it if necessary.

Thank you! Love to see my old game getting played. Glad ya enjoyed it!

Got the email, thank you!

I'm sorry but I'm stumped by this issue. The error log is very helpful, but I haven't been able to reproduce the issue on my own mac, or figure out what could be causing it. I will work on some possible fixes and probably email you when they are ready to test, if you are still interested at that point.

Thanks again.

Hello, thank you for the report and extra details. Looks like the GUI has crashed.

Would you mind sending me the error log?

  1. Click an empty space on your desktop
  2. Hold Option and click the Go menu
  3. Click on Library
  4. Navigate to Logs/Fishlicka/Juice Galaxy/
  5. You'll find the Player.log file
  6. Please email that to JuiceGalaxyBugs@gmail.com

I'll probably be able to fix it quickly if you do. Thank you!
