With the search API, you don't need to sign in to get results that are normally blacklisted by the default blacklist on the main site.
I put the default blacklisted terms as default in Heat Control.

And I agree, I can't really call this a game, it's like a sort of hybrid between app and game. This seemed like a good place to publish it!

An invite is in-game, first screen when opening it!

I'm aware of inconveniences.
Your comments are frankly misplaced for the level of skill that went into this app, I'm lucky it even functions without serious issues.
And maybe you'd think of making the UI less crap before doing standards and polishing.

The Itchio comment section is not a good place for technical discussions. I work better through Discord and teamwork through IMs and calls, that's all. People are free to play along and help or not.

Anyways, translation and stuff would be great, but I won't improve v1, waste of time. I'm working on v2 and we'll take it from there. People are free to do whatever they want in the meantime.

Noted for hotkey and popup. Will skip confirm if using hotkey, so it doesn't need using the mouse.

Not sure I get the relevance of that a11y thing. Contact on Discord if worth explaining.

Couldn't make it work. Only found a way in Electron, so the Win/Linux version.

This shouldn't need a guide.
Select the "local" option, click "select folder..." and it lets you pick a folder on your computer and get the images in it.

That was a misunderstanding, issue sorted on Discord.
There's a "mod manager" unofficial version, but that itself is a modded version done by someone else, available on Discord.

Same reply as below, suggestions can be dropped on the Discord and need some level of detailing to be useful later. What does it do, how does it work and why, etc.
I'm not sure what a "cum queue" is in your mind.

Something looking like that would work.

You need to run the local version of the webapp, by downloading the zip and opening index.html. (or the Win/Linux version)
Browser security doesn't let you from Itch.io, looks like.

Not adding features to v1.

I guess there's no workaround that wouldn't be tedious. I'll definitely do something about it in v2.
If you'd like this done quickly, feel free to mod the game or ask if someone can do it on the Discord.

As I told you a few months ago, I'm not adding features to v1.

You go back to the main menu after the end of the session or mid session, and the pic browser appears with the bookmarked pics. It tells you, in a popup, "You have bookmarked pictures. You can now browse through them and add them to lists. Your bookmarks will then be discarded once you exit this browser."

So do just that and add them all to a list you call "favourites"

I know I could have done it better and that's exactly why I'm making a new one.

They get displayed after the end of the session or quitting.
Point is to just quick bookmark while in game, and sort them into lists afterwards.

Yeah, back when I made the first versions and thought it'd be a thing 100 people tops would play with, I thought the audience would be overwhelmingly male and the dialog was explicitely for dudes.

Later made it neutral as I could, without completely bleaching it out. It's complicated to make the dialog fit all cases. I could sorta adapt the different prompts to what I do, and I thought other people in the same boat would do the same.

Will be a different system and hopefully more fun in v2

Afaik, using "to come/to cum" is widely understood as reaching orgasm, no matter the gender or anything else about the person.
The rest of the comment is confusing. Files don't get "imported", either you load images from the computer if using the Win/Linux exe, or you load from e6.
And you can't load images from a phone, couldn't make it work. Gotta stick to e6.
Importing is for lists. They're essentially just links to e6 images.

Would only be able to do anything if you're willing to help troubleshoot. Join the Discord if so

Same as any type of local image, under the "local" option, "select folder..." that contains the gifs.
What's causing problems?

I'm a lady with standards, not quite happy leaving stuff half assed.

Degens like you and other cool people showing huge interest made it worth keeping working on it, so there we are. Still going.

Read reply to comment below.

No more features, only bug fixes.
I'm working on a new version, takes time. And unfortunately your girl's been working on recovering from her issues first.
I've got to catch up on art work first, will resume working on this soon after. Hopefully in a couple weeks.

I don't see how this is helpful: I imagine you are stumbling upon the comic page in question while searching for regular tags. Hitting next on e6 for that search query will more than likely not show the next page of the comic.
Your description sounds more like pools, which are automatically shown if the image belongs to one. Most comics are in a pool for that reason: browsing pages in order.
If you need to elaborate, please talk about it on the Discord.

Suggestions are logged on the Discord server, can't keep track here.
Better to wait until most features are done anyways, some stuff will become irrelevant.

Someone came close, but couldn't make it work outside of their APK build from their machine. Won't be a thing unless someone can make it work and I'm able to build it.

I don't know what you mean by "more than one screens". Either way I'm working on v2 and not taking suggestions. They are likely to become irrelevant for the most part.

Turns out the problem was e621 being blocked in the user's location.
To anyone reading, if you are unable to access e621 in your browser, then it won't work in Heat Control either.

"E621 search" works for me. Contact me on Discord for proper troubleshooting.
And check out modding stuff on Discord to get what you want.

It's a bit unclear what you're trying to do. Adding an image to a list through the "Display results" screen, and then pressing "Edit Selected List", correctly displays the image I added to that list.
Contact me on Discord to troubleshoot faster, else please describe the steps you take to try to do what you want, and what you expect to happen.

Just messing around, nothing to be worried about,
I won't lie though, the amount of apologies and praise I'm getting in this message is hilarious. Not like I hate getting my arse kissed anyways!

Enough teasing, you're right, without experience all one can do is take a blind guess. Can't be blamed for that.
As much as I fucking wish it was, it's not a "change some URL and it works" deal. Except for e6ai, happens to have the exact same APIs.
Anyways. I'll do my thing and it'll get good. As "perfect" as this app is I still wanna do a lot better.

Damn, this comment is pressing my buttons. Usually, seeing someone beg me like this makes me just itch to punish them more.

"Jokes" aside, would have done it if it were easy. Current code is very hard to maintain and to add stuff to in a viable way.
I'm working on a more ambitious follow up that will be built with flexibility in mind. Everything will be much easier from there. But it'll take months.
Support for more websites is one of the many suggestions that have already been logged in the Discord server.

Even if someone was to contribute and code the thing, making sure it doesn't break anything else that's in there is too painful, and increasingly painful as more is added. So, everything is on hold till I'm done with the new thing.

Thanks, very helpful info.It'll get logged on the Discord server and looked into.

For anyone else reading this, minimum required Android version is 7.0
If you use an older phone, you'll get this error message.

I'm not sure I see the actual problem. I understand you are talking about the "Tags blacklist" text field, under the "E621 search" option, which is filled on first start with the e6 default blacklisted tags.
But it only contains 8 tags, and upon changing it, the changes will be saved to the browser's local storage, so it remains the same next time you open the webpage.

As you describe your problem, I'd assume you'd go through each of the 8 default tags and erase whichever you don't want filtered out, and that would be a one time issue since this blacklisted tags change will be saved once you start the game.

If you say you "don't have the issue" on the APK version, your browser settings are likely set so data isn't allowed to be saved, and you'd probably also lose all your saved lists data (which can be exported/imported however, so that could still work out I guess).

Glad you like!
Probably not in this version, but more than likely it'll be a thing in the follow up.

Pretty much no, I wanna stop adding stuff to this one. The structure wasn't made to handle so much additional stuff.
I'm working on the follow up, that will take a while (at least trying to, all these updates have been time consuming)
Thank you for the nice message though <3

Also, I'll need people feedback to do things properly. Don't hesitate to join the server if you feel you can help with your input

(1 edit)

Sounds difficult and would probably need your credentials which is something I'd really like to avoid handling in my app.
If you want to elaborate, please post a suggestion topic in the Discord server.

If you have downloaded v1.4.2 before this post, please redownload.

Files have been updated fixing a couple oversights that made some buttons not work.

Web version works by opening index.html. It work for computers but not for most phones AFAIK.

Can't make iPhone apps outside of the store. Store doesn't allow adult content. Only option left is to use the online version here through browser.

It could be the sound specifically not working on your device, or it could be the game being muted, maybe the page preventing sounds from being played automatically, things like that.
I can try things if we get testers owning iPhones and being able to get the same issue.

At the time the change was made, it was because I got feedback testers accidentally started the game instead of loading pictures.
Everyone seemed to prefer preventing the start, so we went ahead and figured we'd hear it if it was actually a problem. There we are I suppose.
Thankfully, since then more technical stuff was done and it won't be a problem doing exactly that: a Yes/No prompt instead of an error.

Will come in the next update.

Copied from devlog:

If you have a version older than 1.4.0 of the Heat Control APK installed, you will apparently get an error when installing.
Uninstalling the previous version seems to solve it. Probably because of using a Cordova build vs the third party website.
Please reach out if you get any other issue!
