Can someone who knows what they're doing, make a version of this that the rest of us can play? It would be much appreciated.

Amen to that.

I could probably work out how to clumsily crowbar a Linux build into some Ren'py devkit but it sounds like a lot of unnecessary hassle. I'm at a loss as to why anyone would exclude potential gamers - potential supporters - heck, even just potential fans from their hard work over something as simple as this. Could this be the ONLY game on this entire platform that excludes Windows? Out of, what, thousands, maybe tens of thousands of titles? Cui bono, exactly?!

The responses I've seen in the short amount of time tells me what I need to know about gamers. You gamers are not willing to try to change the video game for the better. Which means it's foolish and a waste of time trying to fight for any of you. You gamers are you own enemies. You gamers are at fault for the game industry being shit.

There is a reason why artistic devs and passionate devs are pushed out of this industry.

Seems a little antagonistic to me. My only question was what benefit there is to exclude anyone from playing a game. Exclusion is provocative and divisive by nature, and if there have been negative responses as a result, it's not entirely surprising.

I also don't think it's fair to lump all gamers into one entity just because of a vocal few, especially on anonymous public forums. There also happen to be people praising your game, and I for one would like to see it for myself - but I can't. That seems like an unfortunate waste of talent to me.

I'm not making some personal attack here, I'm just trying to fathom the rationale behind the decision. I support a bunch of game devs, 3D artists, and even this site, because some things are worth preserving. But if this site turned around and said "only accessible on Safari", you can be pretty sure a bunch of people would get upset.

For far too long and far too many times, I have seen gamers pathetically defend the industry and the bad apples in it. It's only natural for gamers to be divided and hate one another because of it. I have been vocal about the industry for many years. Only to be met with insults and other forms of attacks. There is no need for me to allow those who don't care nor contribute, to be rewarded. If I choose not to make a build for platforms that have most of those problematic gamers, then so be it. I did so for the best interests of making gaming better. That is what matters to me. Not the fame or money. I didn't become a dev and forget my roots. I know my roots.

You may not think it's fair to lump all gamers together. However, the majority are at fault for ruining the industry for us. The few that say they aren't part of the problem, aren't doing enough. Which is why gaming has been ruined, it remains to be shit. I don't need to elaborate, gamers are going to cope anyway.

As for the very few who genuinely enjoy my games or understand and appreciate the work I do for them, they have my thanks. Which is why i have been able to continue several games later.


What almost everyone likes to ignore or deny, is the fact that I have fought for you gamers. But since, I'm the bad guy in all of this for doing so, there is no need for me to keep doing this. I won't be doing any more free games, or fighting for gamers.​

You aren't fighting for "gamers" you're fighting against windows and all those who use it. And you're offended that the majority of "gamers" use it and that some of them would like to be able to access your games like any other game out there. It is your prerogative to make your games however you wish, just don't get your panties in a wad because those you've excluded are upset about not being able to play it. You're throwing a temper tantrum and taking your toys and going home, which you're entitled to do, but it's a very bad look to everyone reading your tirades. Maybe take some deep breaths, go outside and lay in the grass gazing up into the sky and try to calm down. You have made a lot of really cool looking games, I just wish someone besides yourself, who doesn't feel so strongly about this, could make a version for us dumb-dumbs who don't understand your fight or how to play your awesome games in the format you've provided.

I don't need to bother with idiots like you. You another ignorant one. You should educate yourself about "Big Tech", before you type anymore on this matter. You just don't see the big picture. Don't bother replying to me. I won't be replying to you, I have better things to do.

Here it is for windows.

Packed using Ren'Py 8.2.3 Python 3

I'm not sure what happened but I attached the zip to my previous post but it's not showing. I will continue trying to get it to upload and hope that it works. I've tried getting it uploaded several times with no luck. Maybe I'm not allowed?

Maybe someone else can upload it. If you want to try it. Just download the Build Folder. Put it in your Ren'Py projects folder. Load Ren'Py click the name on the left. On the right click the words Build Distributions. Click Windows or whatever it is you want to build it for. Then click build at the bottom right. Ren'Py will do the rest. Then just upload when it's done.

most likely forum has a file size limit, you would probably have to upload it to a file sharing site and post the link to share it. most forums only allow at absolute most of a few 100 mb file size but most common is less than 100 mb

Well then lets try this.
Again this is for Windows.

Thanks man, this is what I was hoping for.

EDIT: Nevermind you need to actually select Sleep for the scenes to trigger. Leaving this post here in case others go to ask this question.

Has anyone been able to actually get any scenes to trigger? Game guide lists requirements for the scenes but nothing actually happens on these days.

Att 4 is I'm assuming Attendance 4 and nothing happens on day 4 or 8 or 12 even with 6 knowledge. Anyone have any idea why this is the case?

Has an exe file been added to the Windows version? No mention of that in the changelog that I could find.

 

[Xillonen]

I've tried but this game really needs a walkthrough or a hint system... I used the activate hints at 35 knowledge and it just kicked me out to the main menu (?)
There's no explanation to what does what, you just hope to randomly get it, even after spending about 30 minutes, didn't get to see any nudity except the preview of the background in the "Sex" menu which are of course all disabled lol

I think this requires way too much "work" to get any kind of compensation at all and there's a bunch of other alternatives out there... Make this a bit easier or straightforward and people might visit it more.

 

[bmsera]

Weirdly enough, this game was what got me here all the way from ATF, but couldn't get it since M+ was needed... now, finally, I'll try it
