Thank you for checking the game! I am constantly working on it and bug reports and feedback from you is very much appreciated !

(+1)

When i load up the game its stretched and i can't see the sides. I can't access the settings so i don't even know if there is a mean to fix this in game but like this the game is basically unplayable.

Developer

Thank you for reporting this, its a UI Issue that causes monitor using the 21:9 aspect ratio to have a stretch UI. I have fixed this issue 0.05a. Thank you again for trying the game and do tell me if the issue persist.

All unknown perks can't be found. The icons of the state with unknown meaning make me confuse. The goal is known so I feel that I lose the direction to play the game. The character may have uncontrollable movement and clash the record. However, it is a good game and make me feel happy within an hour. Hope you can improve the game better. 

Developer

Hi, currently perks are  work in progress in the tech demo. The character uncontrollable movement should be fixed in 0.05a. Some tooltip for the icons are also added. I am glad you enjoy the game and thank you for playing!

Very excited to see what will come of this game. Right now all I can do is put halo on girl, see two cgs, take halo off, charge halo, sleep, repeat. The suspicion goes up when the halo dies so my suspicion is like 400%+ because i dont click to remove it fast enough every time and I've done a ton of grinding. 

Developer

Yea for now this is pretty much the content. The suspicion bug is a known bug and does not do anything at the current stage of the game. Sorry for not clarifying this in a proper post but for now the game is still in tech demo and content will be minimal. I made the content easily accessible without grind so people can expect what will they get once proper gameplay comes in.

very excited to see what'll come of this once it gets past the tech demo stage :) I love the concept 

Is there sound? I typically play on Linux, and one of the most common issues I've had with other games is the sound not working.

Developer

Nope no sound for now.

After 20 minutes I play the game it crashes my whole pc... It's not a low end pc, It's quite good, and it happens only with this game, with the new version and with older ones too.

This looks like a really interesting idea. There's gotta be a goal outside of corrupting targets, and the suspicion seems promising. But there needs to be a set routine for characters so we can plan around and do something speed of corruption seem good with room to get an upgrade to speed up the process. Controls are strange but oddly work I just wish I could stay still while the targets menu is on or if I can see where I am with said menu still up so I can multitask. Hopefully corrupted target will help subdue other targets. Keep it up good work

hey when i tried to open the game on a mobile device the game crashes right away

same here

hey I tried to start a new game and it froze on the loading screen. I'm on windows

Developer

Sorry to hear about the issue. Could you please provide the logs located at {userpath}\AppData\LocalLow\Hush\The Halo Project\Player.log

when is the next public build expected?

Developer(+1)

Next week

hype!

New update is pretty good! I've noticed a few things so far.

The first thing I can articulate so far in terms of the actual gameplay is that getting spotted during a sex act seems to be determined by location alone, whether or not other NPCs are present, or even could spawn during the time progressed. Everywhere besides the clinic and Priya's office, 

Particularly unintuitive is getting caught while at home. Perhaps this is supposed to represent being seen taking a girl back to your dorm, or being overheard by neighbors, but these are entirely different events from being directly spotted by NPCs in the room; It should have a different alert to reflect that.

Additionally, since so far you can only be "caught" in your room with fellow students, who came over without wearing the HALO, I don't see why there should be anything suspicious about this at a college. Not unless this is very out of character for these girls–which would ideally be the start of a subplot instead of just incrementing general suspicion–or this is a very overbearing and sexually conservative college, which would make a much better plot hook than the threadbare frame story.

Other than that, I've mostly found a few graphics/interface bugs:

  • Tooltips for left-side HUD bars are drawn behind them
  • Stars and $ on save file listing are always 0
  • If a target was left stripped the last time you left them, they'll have their clothes back but the menu will still have the prompt to "put clothes back on", which must be selected before you can strip them again
  • The extra upgrade slots you earn from perks don't have the lighter background the first two slots do, and you can't select them directly.
Developer(+1)

Hi thanks for playing the game and giving insightful feedback! The graphical bug you mentioned will be iron out, thank you for pointing it out.

As for the gameplay, yes I cant say its still pretty jank since the chance of you getting caught is essentially random and more isolated location give a much easier time. Personally I still don’t like how getting caught works but for now I have no better idea :(

The part you mention about getting caught while at home. Do you mean you are gaining suspicion when a target followed you home? If so that is definitely a bug that I overlook.

As always thank you for playing and hope you enjoy the hunt!

By "caught at home" I mean getting the "you've been spotted!" alert when you select a sex act at the "home" location. I loaded my save back up to try and verify, but a number of things seem to have changed. Maybe some things are getting set when you load a save, but aren't being properly updated when the values they're derived from are changed during gameplay? Some examples I found after loading a save where everyone but the cop was at level 2:

  • Get spotted way less often
  • Upgrade slots seem to work properly now
Developer(+1)

Then there is a bug, you will never get the suspicion alert if the girl is at home location. I will check it out. Thanks for reporting

On the weekends, when she's in the noodle shop with all her friends, Ava doesn't have a character portrait and talking to her makes her say "TALK_CASUAL"

Developer

Oh might have been a mistake, I will fix it, thanks for reporting

hey the game didn't crash (YIPPEE) but the game had a glitch where you can get to the top of the map basically trapping you as you can't get back down, fix this pls and this happened on mobile

Developer

Hi thank you for reporting the bug, it have been fixed in 0.26d.

Always get stuck in the classroom. button to exit wont appea

Developer

Hi thank you for reporting the bug, it have been fixed in 0.26d.

The game freezes on the loading screen after clicking new game. I'm on Windows, not sure how to fix this

Developer

Can you try turning on the console before you click New Game? I would like to know if there are any errors when you start a new game. There used to be this issue a long time ago.

New version gets stuck on loading screen every other time I try to change locations.

Location objectives still trigger again every time a save is reloaded.

Also, how do you trigger the clinic objective? Talk to Joyce or Irene when they're in the library together from 1-6PM on Wed/Sat

Developer

Location loading bug fixed in 0.41a

the door in the café is super loud and it can't seem to be turned down with any of the volume options (having all of them at zero doesn't do anything)

also the athlete upgrade doesn't work, it says it lowers the act from 10 to 5, but it still removes 10 stamina.

Developer(+1)

Found it thanks!

I'm having 3 major bugs: the game completely bugs out sometimes when I tried to upgrade the halo on multiple occasions, the effects of athlete straight up don't work and there is supposed to be an animation for the Auto-Trainer right?

Developer

Hi may I know which platform you are playing on for auto trainer animation?

android

When I try to upgrade it crashes, why?

Developer

Hi! May I know what platform are you on and when did it crash? When you click on the upgrade button on the right side of the screen, or when you try to slot an upgrade?

mobile and at right side

I'm having a bug after i upgrade and press the x on the upper right the menu will repeatedly flash and eventually crash

(1 edit)

Bugs I've found so far in 0.51:

  • The door inside the clinic no longer works. Characters' proximity to the door will trigger the appropriate opening/closing animation and sounds, but not even Antonia can go through.
    • Antonia will never appear in the waiting room, she can only spawn directly into her office when you enter the location. She never arrives or leaves while you are at the clinic.
  • When a target is in a machine, they will still appear at other locations, where they cannot move or be interacted with. A different target will go missing instead.
    • I first noticed this with Joyce (trained) and Lisa (missing). I haven't determined if the 'ghost' target appears at their own usual locations or the missing target's.
  • Threesome sex interactions can still be used even if you don't have enough energy. They also don't apply the Athlete upgrade's cost reduction, but I wasn't sure if that was intentional.
  • You can still be "spotted" having sex by level 3 targets.
  • Locking a location's door doesn't prevent anyone from leaving.
  • Irene grants mansion access at level 1.
  • Can't lock headmaster's office even if you have the key.

UI issues:

  • Alternate machine modes don't display their unlock cost or any explanation of what they do
  • Lisa level 3 perk still says girls' dorms are "coming soon"
  • Some upgrades, target roles, etc. are displayed in all caps
