Very fun and cute game. I love the cozy vibes (especially from dozy XD). Loved the creative and quirky character names too. I got to around day 4 or 5 I guess. I like the consistency of the world here, how characters and their stories are interconnected (like the Don politics). I'm curious, is the game endless? What is the end goal? (Sorry I don't have enough time to explore it fully)
Seems fun! But most of the time, after a NPC talks, the game stop responding to input for me (either on the step where I'm supposed to press Space or to press Y/N) and the following error appears in the console : FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.
at System.Number.ThrowOverflowOrFormatException (System.Boolean overflow, System.String overflowResourceKey) [0x00000] in <00000000000000000000000000000000>:0
It's very frequent, here's how my attempts went : - Start game, dog explain the basics, I say Yes, then an alien appear and say his first message -> game stuck on press Space, have to refresh. - Refresh, the duck detective ask a question, I answer Y, next npc come (dog again) : game stuck on press Y/N, have to refresh. - Refresh, Miss Meow appear, say one message -> stuck on press Space - Refresh, a goldfish with a crown comes in, say one message -> stuck on press Space - etc... each time with that same error above. Never was able to answer more than 1 question without having to refresh.
Not sure what's going on but I hope it can help :s
I could not replicate the error you were getting. I tested with other people but they also do not seem to be encountering this error. I have tried a small fix with the save system, so maybe it might work now. I'm sorry if its not fixed yet but you can message me and I will try to make it work.
I just tried it again and it happened again on the very first message this time ^^'. Same error. Strange, wonder what input string it's talking about.
To be clear this is where I'm stuck, music is still playing and stuff is moving (clouds, dog "bobbing"), just pressing space does nothing once the error appear:
I've tried a fix out. If it is still not working, maybe you can try running it on mobile to see if it is any different. Thank you so much for your help!
It works now, nice! What was the issue? I'm really curious now ^^
So now that I could try further, very fun :). The art is great. It's nice how each NPC actually did remember what they asked before rather than just making something up each time. Very fun.
It's not clear what the "defeat" condition was (reaching a certain negative money threshold or staying negative too long?), and I felt like basically EVERYONE just wanted money, so once I ran out it was hard saying yes to anything. At one point my dog came back, commented on how I was low on fund, and offered to build a tavern so I can finally make money. Sounded great! When I accepted, he just took 50 gold (I was already broke!), ran off and never came back. Did my dog just scam me? xD
Those are all small issues and probably easy to fix. I'd love to see an expanded version! With some uses for each resource, I feel like this could make a great full game! Nice work :)
I think the issue had to do with parsing the AI message. For some reason, it was not able to convert the string into a double which I use to add those little pauses into messages. I just added a condition to follow through with no pause if that happens. Thank you so much for helping me with the issue!
Yes, the defeat condition isn't very clear but in general it's just meant to be don't get your stats down too low. I'm sorry if it's not too clear it's just meant to be a quick and casual like do whatever you want kind of game. But if you want a sneak peek into the stats, if you get below -50 gold, -10 happiness, or 0 population, you lose :).
I am sorry about the money problem but it should get a little better as the game progresses with many storylines. It then becomes a little less about money. Yes, the scamming is there but it is kind of funny so I will leave it XD. I am planning to update it to fix some of these finer details so stay tuned!
Don't worry! I will try yours for sure! I have just been busy with school but I can make time tomorrow! Thank you so much for playing and for you helpful criticism and feedback!
