Cursed Lands version 0.8.9

[jack1974]

Thanks a lot
Also, I am updating it again because I found out by mistake I ended the game like if was a demo! so there's more content to see. In practice you should be able to do the first full moon mission and get back to Grimoire. In previous version the game would end where demo ended
Luckily with itch.io system the update only lasted 2 minutes!

Feedback#2

Spoiler:

First of all, I like this trend where your games become darker. Yes, I checked "decline" option after invading N'Mar. Somehow I knew what will happen after that but this route was good and even seemed realistic in any case. I must admit it's nicely done.

Now typos

Spoiler:

A little one during Dasyra quest. Judge says:

But as a servant of justice and a servant of the law, I will sure that this is made right You are of course, free to leave, but I suggest that you remain in Hammerhand until it is complete.

Dot is missing, as you see.

Spoiler:

Not sure if this is a typo but I really didn't understand this phrase. Or may be it's just my dislexia.
When you arrange group meeting* Nuala says:

Oh, Leena, you are back already? Is the person you are meeting with before Karen?

Spoiler:

Library in castle N'Mar, characters can't decipher text in books. Leena says:

Sadly, it's being my capability to decipher this.

May be "beyond'?

Spoiler:

Kusho kills you:

The others don't need to know. But honestly? after you left such in a hurry, without telling anyone, I don't think they'll miss you.

Game itself worked properly but this catched my eyes.

Spoiler:

Black screen:

Image "cg jasperbout sunset" not found

It happens when you first time left dock on a rowboat. After dialog about loving the sea (or Jasper)* CG appears.

*I wasn't able to check whole Jasper route because I somehow decide that meeting with team will speed up the game and invading N'Mar will start right after that. So I did it 4 days before an actual date. My bad, sorry

[jack1974]

Glad you liked my little "an offer you can't refuse" scene. I wrote that myself so isn't edited yet but is simple so perhaps it's OK

Thanks for the typos and the bugs, I know how to fix them all except the crashing one you didn't have a save before that happens? Whenever you encounter a crash situation the best would be to rollback (if it allows you) and then save the game. This way when you send me the save I can immediately debug and fix it thanks

[Akar Dorn]

Sorry, but it seems I don't have those saves. Guess I overwright them. Sorry, my bad

P.S. Just noticed something. In my previous feedback I mentioned that some dialogs lost boxes with characters names. You fixed it but one with

You're wrong. But you have a pretty face...

has to be said by Leena, while fixed box containes name of protagonist. Check it, please.

[jack1974]

Ah OK. I just assumed was spoken by MC since seemed unlikely Leena would say that so early
I'll try to reproduce the bug you mentioned as well, maybe someone else will stumble in it too.

[jack1974]

Just updated it, the only bug I wasn't able to reproduce it's the crashing one I tried but I can't seem to remain without anyone in party (that is the main issue that caused it). I hope it was rare/very hard to stumble into it at least.

[Mika Ninja]

Hello! I noticed that at a certain point in the game, when your team is fighting on a ship, the game randomly crashes when I select an enemy. Sometimes, I can rollback and everything is fine, then other times the game closes and pulls out an error message on Notepad. I'm not sure if this has happened to anyone else before, but I wanted to point this out.

[jack1974]

Could you please post the message you get here ? that would be helpful for me to debug
Also if you have a save just before that battle when the crash occurs would be great if you could send it to me for even faster debugging!

[Mika Ninja]

Sorry about the wait! Here's the error I received:

Spoiler:

It happens randomly during the first few fights against the undead on Senya's ship.

Spoiler:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

OK I think the reason is that an enemy has defense to zero, that shouldn't be possible. Going to check
If you have a savegame though would be better, since could be hard to reproduce here!
