Oh I see! Good catch, I will add that to my list and have it fixed for the next update. Thanks for the report!
i also got a bug, when i click play on the menu, nothing happens... only the menu screen lifts up and flies AWAY. after that, i see only the court, no people (im playing on mac by the way) and i tried evrything
It's a feature! You're now playing in a quantum reality! jk, that's crazy, I can hardly believe I never found that one myself. Good find, I will have it fixed in the next update :)
Some side effects are, you can also skip creatures, the bar at the end of the day that says how much happiness you have earned/lost in the passed day has gone, creatures will appear at the end of the day, when you get some people at the end of the day, you can get double and you get both of the stuff from the creature. For example, when the blob asks you to tell people to stop calling him slimeball and you do this glitch, you will get 3 happiness and lose 3 happiness!
No, the big red thumbs down button appears correctly; it's the little green "yes" button in the dialog bubble that animates instead of the little "no" button. The correct response happens - everything works correctly except that in the little dialog that shows "yes/no", the wrong button animates when you press your answer.
Gotcha. The small y/n buttons in the dialog bubble are just on an animation loop showing that either one can be pressed, they are totally disconnected from your input and only ever line up by chance. I've heard of a few people thinking that they represent your actual button press though, so I think I will change how that animation works to reflect what people are expecting. Thanks, I'll have it changed around in the next update.
The other thing I was going to say, I really do enjoy this game, but I feel the game is too easy. I played about an hour and got too 7000 and i was like oh, this is not so fun anymore. Especially since a lot of the events are similar.
Oh and the coin graphics is messed up, i mean at 3000 I think it reachs the end, but if you lose money it start decreasing the pile even at 7000
Interesting, that's what I test on! Regardless, thanks for the report, I'll look into it a bit more and see if there's anything I can try in the next update.
Hello! The issue about not being able to see your stats in the lower left is a bug that a few people are getting, I'm working on fixing that for the next update.
When you download the game, right click the zip file you downloaded and select "Extract all". It won't run properly unless you extract the zip file and then run the game using the extracted files. Let me know if that works for you! I'm also curious if you're able to see your stats in the downloaded version.
It took me almost 100 days before someone offered to take the sword. I gave to the thief (LOL) and it took her another 100 days to come back with the prize. Sometimes I wonder if the adventurer had offered if I would gotten a bigger prize because she said she kept half of it for herself.
I'm not sure what to do about that! Windows has the ability to unzip a file built-in, but if that's not working you could try using WinRAR. Sort the Court contains multiple files, so the only way I can easily distribute the download version is using a zip.
It takes him like 50-100 days to prepare the sword, just be patient and keep playing.
Weird! If you're having problems with itch.io, you can try downloading the game from GameJolt instead.
Sorry about that! A bunch of people have let me know about this problem, so I've got a fix that will hopefully work - it'll roll out when the update I'm working on is finished.
I've looked into this and everything seems to be working as intended. The problem is there's a second piece of dialog for the knight where he talks about wielding a legendary sword, but that dialog has nothing to do with the dragon storyline, it just sounds very similar. I've rewritten that dialog to be less confusing and will put it out the next time I do a patch.
Hello! I'm not sure what you mean by "the incorrect thing appears", but make sure you are entering your gamejolt token, not your password. Gamejolt uses a token system for security when manually logging in to games, on the gamejolt site click your portrait in the top right and select "Game Token" and enter that code instead.
If you play on the Gamejolt page while logged in via the Gamejolt site, it should automatically log you into the game (you shouldn't need to use the login button in the game at all). Does doing it that way work? I'm not sure what else I can do to troubleshoot login problems, since almost all of that is handled by Gamejolt's own API :\
I have the same problem using both itch.io AND Gamejolt. Both don't like my Gamejolt game token. Whilst logged into Gamejolt and playing from Gamejolt, progressed isn't saved. Tried using the login feature (I am presented with the login option and New Game option - even if logged into Gamejolt. I even see greyed text "logged into Gamejolt..." in the lower right of the game screen whilst login screen is open. Not sure that made sense. :-) I suspect it's an API issue.
Keep in mind the GameJolt login has nothing to do with your saved game - the only thing logging in does is allow you to submit your scores to the leaderboards and earn trophies. Your saved progress is stored locally on your computer, even if you are not logged in. Troubles logging in may be GameJolt API issues, but you should still be able to save even if not logged in. Your progress is local, so if you play in the browser, the Continue button will only appear when you are playing in the browser on that same computer.
Hello, could you play the game so that this happens to you again, then close the game and navigate to the SortTheCourt_Data folder (it is in the same location as the game's .exe) and locate a file in there called output_log.txt. It would be helpful if you could email that file to support@graemeborland.com so I can see what's going on.
Could you run the game so that this happens again, then close the game and navigate to the SortTheCourt_Data folder next to the game's unzipped exe file, then grab the file called output_log.txt and email it to support@graemeborland.com. That will help me figure out what's going wrong.
Also, as long as you hang on to your save file (SortTheCourt_save.dat, found next to the game's exe) then you will be able to bring it over into future versions, so don't worry about that.
Hello - please follow the instructions in this post to send me your log file, that will help me understand what's going on.
Me too! This is my message: I downloaded the game on Mac and I've been waiting but no people have shown up. I downloaded the correct Mac file and I've searched around but this does not seem to be a common error.
Hello, I'm going to need more information to try and debug your issue, so please follow the instructions in this post to submit your log file to me.
It would help me to have more information about what's happening behind the scenes, so could you please follow the steps in this post to submit your log file?
Sorry to hear that, Fanrik. Please follow the steps in this thread to submit your log file and I'll see what I can do.
Hi there,
The zip file you downloaded for Sort the Court includes both an exe file and a "SortTheCourt_Data" folder. You need to unzip the entire zip file and then run the exe from the unzipped location. If you try to run the exe from inside the zip without unzipping it first, it won't work. Hope that helps!
A year on and I doubt it will ever be fixed. I have just submitted an install script to lutris for the windows version, though it still needs to be approved by the moderators. If you do not want to wait, just install lutris, download the windows zip file, extract it, add a game to lutris and select the exe file as executable, lastly enable DXVK under runner options and you're good to go.
Hi there - would you be able to follow the steps in this post to send me your log file? It would help greatly with being able to diagnose this issue.
you hire him for a sum of coins and then if he finds something he'll tell you. he will continue asking later on. kinda like the skeleton i guess
When I run Sort the Court on Xubuntu Linux is plays, but I can't see the king or any of the characters. The text bubbles work, music, sound effects, and the Y/N work, but everything else is just a black screen.
Hello, I have the same issue! I'm playing on arch linux with the linux binary of the game. Unfortunately I've encountered a graphical issue. Although the UI works well, no backgrounds are visible (city, castle, king, coins, people, etc...). This is true for both the main menu and the actual game view.
Never mind, managed to find a fix. Had to open up the level1 text file in the data folder, quit that game, which made a new save from day 1 which wasn't bugged.
Hey. Great game ! Running the game on linux but no graphics for me except stats and text (nop throne king city or Sound is workin btw.
I keep getting this
