itch.io

Unfortunately almost impossible to play on a high resolution / high DPI screen with OS-level scaling enabled. Everything is too small and the browser zoom feature does not do anything. Some sort of universal scaling slider that would make everything bigger would be great.

You probably have too many of other type of drone.

The upgrades might be disappearing because you go below the required drone amount, as some of them require a particular amount of particular type.

You could try converting the blanks to fill out all the city professions, which should unlock the last few upgrades.

Wanted to mention that if you use butler, you can upload files bigger than 2GB to itch.io directly, instead of mega which limits daily download amount.

In addition to that, that program can also be used to download patches like the itch.io app does.

Thank you for making the game, I quite like the concept, but every time it updates I have some weird issues with MEGA limiting my downloads.

Thank you. I have uploaded the fix, this should not happen anymore.

Here is the fixed savefile as well: https://file.io/JdAkdXL9vHiI

Sorry.. One more time please, I did’t think it would be deleted right after I tried to download it the first time.

Could you please upload the save file somewhere? This seems strange, I cannot figure out why that could happen.

They are not from your country specifically. You may just happen to live in the country they are from.

After thinking how best to approach it, I have implemented a way to switch modes and allowed resetting them separately. However, due to technical limitations, the idle game parts do not run while you are in another mode. I am yet to figure out if it is at all possible with how the game is made.

It is not possible as of yet.

Like when she notices, she adds a new routine of going to the doctor or somehow lowering your hypnosis

There were plans for some sort of resistance in the personal path, but so far I have not acted on them. Maybe some day.

i’d say add some more drone types in the shipping company. offhand, i can think of naga, orca… stuff like that.

Both of these were thought of, but at the time I could not source good art that I would like for them. They would also preferably need some purpose, and I unfortunately already struggled to come with anything for the two existing ones. It’s not off the table completely to have them added, but such were the reasons at the time.

for the other side, i might like a similar paper doll or wireframe model to show off the status of the gear.

Any kind of graphics is most likely out of the question for that mode, because it would scale the amount of work needed too high. Without a dedicated artist for this, it’s pratically unfeasible, and I am not making money from this to pay a dedicated artist.

Maybe also adding the option to wear a company designed suit and visor any time you want. at the cost of instantly maxing out the drone meter and preventing you from wearing latex or something?

There is at the time work on something like this. Hopefully it will be added sooner rather than later.

10 thousand of each of those. Some of them have a 1 thousand upgrade as well.

Interesting. I understand now why you did not get the third one, this will be fixed in the next patch. The normal friend only appears when you do not have any friends at all, which is the wrong thing to check for.

UPD: The next patch is now available.

You probably missed the latex enthusiast friend. To find them, you need to reach at least level 4 in the Latex fetish, own a latex suit, and trigger the Chance encounter at home.

Another one is the coworker who appears starting from the third level of work as a chance encounter as well.

I do believe the “Finish” block in “Aroused” should tell you how to reach level 5. You need to be wearing a suit and perform that action while your XP is at 199 or close to that, which will take you to level 5.

If there is any new content, it will be a separate post. All the fixes will be in the latest features post. The latest update was the latest entry in the changelog, it was a bug fix.

There was an issue with updating the videogame, indeed. It should now be fixed.

drone 5. Some very rare checks need it for a 100% chance. was that just a typo or something?

No, these can just never be 100% successful, but at the moment level 5 cannot be reached.

Thank you. Hopefully there will be more.

Indeed you do. This is probably a good idea, but I need to think about framing. For the moment the workaround would be to favourite (black heart when you mouse over the action title) the manufacturing actions so they can be done faster.

There is, for the moment, no level 5. Sorry. Hopefully in the future.

Currently it’s only for story purposes and does very little in terms of gameplay. This will, hopefully, change at some point. Amount of drones being added can be maximized by doing things that give Drones in the News every day and doing the short film action that increases the amount of people applying.

I think it should be working in the itch app now.

Actually, this might be different after all. The itch app uses an year or so old version of chrome which does not have something the game uses. I will try to work around this.

Oh. Yes, if you download this version from itch.io like that, I do not think it will work. The version uploaded on TFGS should work fine when downloaded.

Is there going to be physical transformation and not just mental in this new game mode?

It is planned, but currently I suppose there is not any.

also I can’t do the furniture option in the ad agency i bought 4 tables and chairs and the game says i have only one of each. same with political party, i have 20 drones but game claims i have only 2

There was a very specific bug that happened specifically with items and I do not quite understand why my fix helped, but it did. This should not happen anymore.

This might be a thing with your browser. The game tries its best to only load the data when it’s needed, so normally you will see a little bit of a delay when picking any choice on the main screen.

The UI should then appear, but if your browser is blocking loading of resources somehow then it will not load. Because itch.io has resources loaded from a separate domain, it might count as a third-party resource and be blocked by some addons.

This is probably something in your browser like uBlock, uMatrix, or Firefox’s enchanced tracking protection.

And suddenly, ‘repIncr is not defined at Proxy.doSleep’

This one should be fixed now.

As for the suit, I think it does indeed not count. This has been addressed as well.

I beleive I have fixed every issue except the chance points not doing anything at work in post-videogame phase, this does not seem to happen to me. If you could please send your save file or tell me what the browser console says when you press the chance button and nothing happens, that would be a great help (Press F12 on keyboard to open the console).

The friend bond thing is somewhat intentional, because if you do not interact with them for a while it decays. That way it is possible to kind of have a buffer against that. Though the fact it’s not showing is not good. I’ll need to think about this one.

There is a coworker friend who should appear as a chance encounter at work, and a latex enthusiast friend who should appear as a chance encounter at home when you have at least level 4 of the latex fetish and have purchased a suit.

I believe I have figured out the issue, it will be in the next patch (1.3.1) that I will push out along with the other fixes.

UPD: The patch is now available.

Interesting, I will need to look into that. It’s supposed to be 500 by that point.

You will have ways to earn more money easier later. The XP gain for things is more or less balanced according to the length of the game. Both succeeding and failing at things gives XP as well.

You can download it using the itch.io app. You can also download it from the TFGS page (links on the left). Both should contain the exact same files.

I have sent the email.

Hey. Mostly writing help needed now. If you up to do that, please send me some contact details via email to tevazi at airmail dot cc. Or just shoot me an email from some address I can respond to, if you are comfortable communicating via email.

It adds a multiplier to the research you already do. The multiplier is 500 dolphin drones = +1x research, if you have less than 500 it’ll be a smaller multiplier but it still counts, e.g. 250 is +0.5x

Sent. I do hope messages do actually send correctly.

I shall send details on this via email.

Thank you.

If you do, please reply here that you sent it just in case. I’m still not sure if mail arrives to that inbox.

The help needed is mostly writing. The idea is for it to be a world with options to choose, so the more writing and ideas there is, the better. If you think this is something you could competently do, feel free to send me contact details via email to tevazi at airmail dot cc.
