The first time I've heard about Funkopop in a few years was this post. They needed this type of blunder in order to be relevant for a short while.
Thanks for the Update
So I have been having fun with the game, but I noticed a few bugs.
Edit - I typed a lot about what I thought was bug, but was me just not realizing more Pokémon had abilities like Normalize and Corrosive.
There is another bug that I ran into in which I got a quest I already completed, in the wrong location. I got the Trickster Ghost quest again when I arrived in Terall cave after completing the quest before. I can not complete the quest even after talking to the Phantail Man again.
The last bug I ran into is very minor, and I unfortunately did not get a snip of it. In the west of Wydred, after exiting the town, I was told I was not able to enter the town again, even though the man blocking that path had already disappeared. After defeating a trainer outside of Wydred I was able to enter the town again. I am glad it fixed itself, because I did not have a flying type on me at the time, and did not wish to travel far to get to a PC again.
Anyways, I am having a lot of fun with Wild Lands. Thank you for the great game.
Fun game. I enjoyed discovering which Pokémon were changed. I liked the soundtrack, though it did get a little same-ish at times.
I didn't enjoy trying to figure out what evolution methods changed. The only stone evolutions I experienced were for the Eevee line. Which was frustrating because every few levels I was checking to see if stones would work on certain Pokémon, only to find out later that I just needed to level up
I like this redesign more than Alune's. I really like the details of her arm and leg muscles.
Though the overly shiny skin still bothers me a bit. Makes me think the redesigns are covered in oil. Asagi's breasts look very unnatural. There is no natural sag, and areloa/nips look like stickers.
Most importantly though. BRING BACK ASAGI'S GLASSES! Thank you.
Additionally
As I was writing my first comment out, I took a look at the Patreon images. Which caused me to change an earlier paragraph and add a new one. I just wanted to add that I noticed the bowtie is actually the strings of the hoodie. I believed the design above would be her normal school outfit she normally has. So I was very confused why it did not resemble the school outfit at all.
As I was looking at the Patreon images, I did actually find a new detail about her that I liked. Her painted nails. It adds to her character quite a bit. Though it makes the details of the flowers in her eyes worse. It makes it redundant to have flowers in both her eyes and nails.
Also, looking at the side by side. I do like the decision to keep her hair as being slightly messy.
Truth be told, I don't really like the redesign. I tired to give it time, and look at it with fresh eyes. I looked for minor details that I may like, and I can't find a reason to like it.
What bothers me the most would be her eyes. I noticed while looking for details, that she has little flower patterns in her eyes. I really don't like that along with her new thicker eyelashes. Honestly, there is too much details compared to the rest of her design that it is distracting and doesn't fit her character.
Her outfit also bothers me. I liked the open hoodie, with the uniform underneath, but this new one does not look good. The hoodie is has no zipper and seems to cover the uniform, except for the bowtie for some reason? Like did she tie the bowtie, put on the hoodie, then pulled out the bowtie to show it off? Why? Also, it seems like the hoodie is a short sleeve hoodie with some sort of clips on the end that seems to have no use. Why is it short sleeved as well? It just looks wrong, especially with its front pocket so high up. Why does it go al the way up to her bust?
Speaking of bust, it just doesn't look right. They look padded or that she is wearing a pushup bra. There is no natural sag. Looking at the Patreon post, they look look to be slightly larger than in the old design, but as a comment below has said, they look too big for her.
Speaking of the side by side Patreon images. The new design is too shiny. I get that she is supposed to look more "angelic" but that was accomplished by lightening her hair color. The extra shine on her skin is too much and can hurt the eyes to look at.
I can see a lot of work has gone into the redesign, and it is very well made. But some of the decisions I feel like are a step back than a step forward. I do love your game, and I want to see it get even better, so I am sorry if my critics sounded harsh. I only want to make the game to be better.
I was actually really hoping for an update like this. I was hoping for a chance to focus on one character. Though I do worry about what Sakuya would do if you reject her, I am also curious about what would happen if you only focus on her. Maybe she doesn't kidnap the protagonist during that path, or maybe nobody tries to rescue you?
Just to put this here before I see more people talk about it. The $50 price tag is not the "final" price. The price is equal to those that Patreons pay. So as the complete build because available to more Patreons, the price will go down to match that.
Since the Patreons paid so much for early access, it is only fair that others pay the same.
I believe you need to complete the previous minigame area before the next one can be unlocked. So completing the Elf Kingdom will unlock the Angels and Demons. The City and Countryside probably need to be at a certain level of influence as well. This is just a guess though, it is hard to tell what needs to be done to unlock certain things in this game.
I seem to have a problem that I have no idea how to fix. It has to do with saving. I save at the statues, and while I have the game open, those save files are available. But if I close the game, and load it back up, my save files are all gone. I looked through the comments, and saw that a www/save file was mentioned.
I looked through the file that I downloaded, and while I was able to find the www file, but there is no save file in there. These are the files that I found: audio, data, fonts, icon, img, js. Am I supposed to add the save file myself? If so, how? I tried uninstalling and redownloading multiple times, playing to the point in which you can save, but the save file never appeared. I would like to play more than just the first few hours of the game. If someone can tell me what is going wrong, I would very much appreciate it.
Alright, I won't let a fear of mistakes stop me. Will finish my comment in a little while.
Made a few pages already, and oh man do I see why its better to fix mistakes than create whole pages. Its been 5 hours, and only 8 pages have been given basic information. I pity those that attempt to fill the pages like the location pages like Aldlyn. The Spire of Courage and Secret Hot Springs filled up most of my time, I can't imagine doing something longer.
During my time editing and writing, I did notice a spelling mistake. For the Side Characters, there is the "Location of first ecnounter:" Encounter is misspelled. On the pages that I edited, it has been fixed, but it seems to be on every side character page. I don't know how to go through and mass edit the pages, so I hope the mistake gets fixed.
Thank you for your hard work on this great game, and the wiki. I hope to find some time to contribute a little more sometime in the future.

*Looks at last Update* 29 days ago. *User.exe is confused*
Man, I wish there more people with this kind of work ethic. Though I would like to say, I would rather there be a good update, instead of a broken update. If you need 2, 3, 6, 8 months for an update, take that time. You are doing a great job, I look forward to future updates.
