itch.io

the same as the bull CG next to it, but when you have less than 7 END.

do not necro old posts. my guide has the gallery unlocks info near the bottom (see the front page or the game's main menu), otherwise ask the one you need

(don't necro old posts)

anyway, from my guide:

• use the gnawed bread on the bricks slightly sticking out in both rooms (in the middle in the right one, and on the right in the other room) to get flint and metal box.

the doppelganger is in the neutral ending of the war: do not listen to the chief's final plan, find thane, then enter the painting at the bull temple (if you bought the emblem in the demon city's auction)

it is all explained in detail in my guide too (found on the game's itch.io page or in the game's main menu).

(also don't revive old topics)

given the wips and poll on his patreon, he is likely getting some stuff ready for the three possible storylines going forward and what to prioritize gameplay-wise (idk if the chinese new year will also mean a brief break or other stuff irl came up, i don't wanna intrude)

Should be bingling himself

he posted some wips on our discord, and he wiil not just forget about his game after 5 years of work...

- buy the emblem at the auction in the demon city

-  in the final part of the war, listen to the chief's plan but do not follow it

- go find thane and then visit the paintings in the bull temple (2-3 times if you have never been there)

this is for the neutral ending, which is the only one with Thane as a romantic interest (Nauxus too if you favoured him more than Axel), he has one scene immediately available and one in the bathhouse after it, also a quest and obviously dialogues/interactions here and there

need to get back to it, i got to scrap, some northcrest, still, i think the one they have is not fully updated, but the discord guys should help over there

The wetsuit is in the key items.

Np, happy nude year~ remember the discord is there, other guys or me may help with a more immediate feedback on a proper chat, should you need something again, wanted to chill or see shared art.

Good~ and will join it when it's up then~ (and interesting, looking forward to seeing the real deal then~).

Guys, the guide is right there in the downloads... yes btw, most games keep a discord to be social and has more immediate feedback for the gayme.

Shame the comments are gone tho, hope you took notes of the bugs i mentioned (and that hot lizzo in the title is Cobalt~)

not in the game yet, also make a new thread instead of necroing an unrelated one.

There in the downloads.

Well, well, well~ i see more potential than i had expected in this new gayme~.

The premise is intriguing, with the war brewing and the whole rituals and mana thing justifying the general lewdness of creatures and npcs, a slight MP loss upon orgasms reinforcing it (you can load a save anyway, but it's not overwhelming when a npc demands it when it's so little and a level up gives way more); speaking of level ups, i can get behind how they are achieved, make sure to keep giving a reason to fight regular enemies then, otherwise we go the modern paper mario route where players are just better off avoiding them... the mana loss has me wonder if there could be a game over for losing too much of it~.

I appreciate the movement not being the usual grid one you see in most rpg titles, even if sometimes stuff on the ground gets in the way or lets you think you can squeeze between two objects (but i can justify it a bit to make it harder to avoid enemies). Music is good, it just gets bugged/muted when changing areas, as others mentioned (i suggest muting it for Lycal's scene, as it is a bit too cheerful lol).

Bugs are here and there, i can recall going back immediately after the scientist fight and finding them all just chilling there, the normal slime loss CG starts with a beheaded Hiro ("tutorial" loss aside), the new lone werewolf CG doesn't work as losing to him (i assumed it is the one that comes to get you out of your cell) triggers the win scene and then it cuts to a game over, accessing the gallery then also triggers the game over again (it seems the last thing you saw is still "active in the background" when you go in the gallery in general). The timer reaching 00:00 in the escape section doesn't do anything, the innkeeper saying rooms are occupied even after the people leave, the quest board can be checked again only once after accepting the quests, the gallery has to recheck what scenes i had unlocked from 0.31 only after i trigger one in-game in 0.40... probably forgot something.

Other stuff is telling the player to wear the wetsuit through the key items, adding a hostile wolf guard loss scene, letting you skip the title intro sequence (a bit annoying to watch over and over if one presses F5 to reset). There are typos too, not an excessive amount, i suggest including the classic channels for bug and typo reports in your discord server (separated).

The part that is a bit weak is... actually the sex scenes. The art quality is good enough (the turn 3 slimed Hiro is just a bit unsettling), and i sure cannot demand you hire or commission someone, of course, i am mostly referring to them being pretty short and rarely reaching the climax (or showing it), as fun as the kinks and creatures involved are. I'd say the best one so far was Lycal, felt less short and at least told and showed the climax (in the "mana" way), the kobold and messy Hiro memories were quick but in my favs still (wish we could see the kobold actually "getting his mana extracted"~), us releasing a load in the slimes, slime boss, pool, even the werewolves knotting, pumping us full and maybe bukkaking us; the lizard scientist could have an extended scene if he wins "without armor" (he "extracts mana" himself after we worked him up or punishes us with the drones, idk), and the minotaur really felt like a missed opportunity, with that frotting, dominance play, and... it just cuts to game over.

Hope they get expanded in some way, but those are ideas i wanted to share, do whatever, i'm keeping an eye on this for sure! Oh, last thing... is Cobalt the handsome grumpy kobold in the title screen? Can't be sure, that pic had me expecting an angry rival-esque character we could befriend, while the helmeted lizzo we meet sounds like an eccentric researcher at first, but has some badass grumpy moments too (would have expected him to take the helmet off before leaving, but i kinda feel he is undercover because he is a kobold?), i am thrown off but curious~. Sorry for yapping, but there's a lot to talk about in this gayme already~.

well, an option is to empty your sync folder (that one is not needed), then delete one or few of them and test the game each time, see when it works and doesn't to pinpoint the faulty save.

... actually, do empty the sync folder, then i suggest sorting your folder by last edit and deleting the one save that shows the most recent edit, that should be the one, as it then prevented you from making more or overwriting them (autosaves aside, don't consider those, i mean either a quick save or, more realistically, an actual manual save), try with that first, otherwise do attempts like i suggested above. If you delete every single save and it still happens, you are probably doing something wrong.

and don't worry for the deleted saves, they can be recovered from your bin with ease by right clicking on them and restoring.

renpy keeps a copy of saves in a hidden folder, that's how you find your saves from older versions whenever you download an update.

to see and delete them, first go to your user folder (it's whatever you named your pc, like, it has my name and surname here), make sure you can see hidden folders! while in a folder, click on "view", that should show an option to let you see hidden files/folder/items. Now, in your folder you should see "AppData", click on it, then "Roaming", "RenPy", "Tvern_of_Spear-1" and delete the faulty save file from there AND the "sync" folder.

If you don't know which save is which, the name is based on the page and position the save shows up in the game, like, a save at page 8 in the bottom right will be named "8-6-LT1,save", so i hope you remember its position (since you can't check due to the error).

(don't touch the persistent save btw, that has precious stuff like gallery and such)

Here's a pic to see what is where (remember that AppData itself is found inside the users folder, which has your pc's name)

it works if i download it myself here and place it in the "renpy" folder, maybe you got the wrong folder or renpy blocks it for being from another pc? i can just make a vid of me deleting it using microsoft visual studio so you do it yourself while watching it.

you can also delete only the faulty save from outside (from the saves folder AND the hidden appdata one on your pc), if you haven't deleted everything already... if you used more than a single save, of course, always use your empty slots just in case of shit like this, they are infinite!

(came back from xmas with family today lol)

dude... don't open it, i already deleted the lines for you, download and put the file i sent in the folder and it should all work, don't delete any lines (notepad should also not be able to properly read the code, aren't you seeing weird symbols everywhere?)

it's literally sending a file on here...

look, save this one i am sending in this folder (say yes when it asks you to replace it), your saves should work. once you see they work, change the faulty save's name! so it won't happen again (the one in the save/load screen that has that [ character that breaks everything due to how code is read)

the file

where to put it:

substitutions.py is a file in your "renpy" folder (which is a folder you should see wherever you extracted your game). attempting to open it with something like microsoft visual studio will show you all the lines of code in it, you should delete the 248th and 249th ones.

if you don't wanna do it yourself, send the substitutions.py file here (via google drive, dropbox or whatever), do not copy and paste the lines here, it wouldn't help lol. other files are irrelevant.

ok, it got harder to pinpoint in the latest update, as the lines touched seem to be way more, but i managed to fix it by simply deleting lines 248 and 249 in renpy/substitutions.py, as those call in the exception. if you don't have microsoft visual studio (it's free) or something similar to open the .py file, send substitutions.py here, and i'll delete the lines and send it back.

(ideally, you should also paste the original substitutions.py somewhere, then go change the save file's broken name in the game, and replace the original file just in case, but it shouldn't be necessary)

those are not in the game yet

that is what i am saying... offering the game in spanish would be good, but us guys working on the game do not know spanish, we can't translate it. fans are free to reach out and offer to translate it themselves, but it is a huge amount of work.

when and if someone offers to, we don't know spanish

bottom of the screen

What? it is a page on the internet, page 77:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HjgBoSAq4659ANHfDyhqaSqqgL9fdVHKBp3hZ2-auUE/...

that's found when you start the dungeon, and no skill, it's not skyrim lol.

it's the latest dungeon added.

(it is possible to just use a lockpick to open the door to the pump room btw, and you can submit immediately in the battle)-

you didn't miss anything you need to worry about

after coming back from the mountains, in the slime spot next to the tavern when exploring (it becomes a fairly common encounter)

And you are both wrong.

Killing the spy changes a side quest later, making it sadder and slightly harder while letting Axel hang the 3 lizards is not your fault and has no consequences.

Neutral is achievable regardless of any choice, see the topic i just replied to below or my full guide.

Uh, the neutral ending is regardless of choices, just make sure you bought the emblem in the auction, find Thane in the last part of the war instead of following through with the chief's plan, and enter the painting in the bull temple (a few times if you never entered before), don't stop Thane before reaching the cave in it.

For the date, just make sure Nauxus has not more than 3 points, i take it you read the chart i left in the guide for the math, (3 points means he is tied or lower than Axel).

Make sure you got both Kin and Kith, both can vote, Frode, Jørgen and then Enter Einar's house.

idk if they stay compatible, i'd go to the saves folder, transfer to phone via dropbox, other clouds or such, and move it to whatever place renpy stores the gayme's saves in on the phone (make a save on there first so the gayme creates a folder and is easier to find, if that's how the phone manages it).

if saves are in the .save format over there too, they probably work... otherwise, try the new renpy sync function, enable it in preferences (in the game), save and try, there should be a way to get a code to access your saves from a different device, look it up, i never tried it personally.

So you tap on the tavern and that comes out? It should appear only for the dot in the top right part. Might be a compatibility problem with your phone, feel free to share it in the bug section in the server, Caro might know more.

i think you are not tapping on the tavern, but on the dot northwest of it...  the tavern is the building right next to the zone with the slimes on the map.

it is a random additional thing you get when digging up potatoes and other ingredients in the ground sometimes. quick save and quick load before digging or fishing if you want to reroll the drop and save some time.

mine is updated, same places as usual: here, in the game's menu, the discord server...
