(Updated) Android Users: Bug Reported and Being Investigated
🕑 Added 2022-11-17 15:45:22 +0000 UTC
Update #2 (Nov.18): Build 0.10b has been released which, for Android users, incorporates the hot fix I deployed yesterday. This should get you into the story now without any problems.
I also received reports that prior saved games weren't being recognized and loading. I've since received confirmation this is due to something I did when telling Ren'Py how to prepare the Android-build, such that I accidentally designated it as a completely different project/application rather than an update to a previous project. I can't reverse that at this point, but now that I know what I did (and I won't do it again), all saves from 0.10a going forward will be compatible with future versions. You can use the Skip function (described below) to fast-forward through the parts of the story you've already played to get to the new content.
Update #1 (Nov.17): I've identified the error that was preventing the game from launching and have replaced the files on Mega and MediaFire with a corrected build. I also tested that build on my own S21 and confirmed it works, although I did have to force Mega to re-download the file instead of make me use the original.
I also received a report that the new build wasn't recognizing old save games or persistent data. I've reached out to other developers using Ren'Py for assistance on this. I have a couple theories on what is happening, but for now they are mostly guesses and I'm hoping folks more familiar with the ins-and-outs of Android programming can confirm and advise on it.
In the meantime, you can start a new game and fast-forward through stuff using the SKIP function. To enable it, go to the menu, select Preferences, and enable Skip in "Unseen Text" and "After Choices"; go back to the game, and select "Skip" from the bottom menu.
Android Users: I've received reports of some serious, show-stopping errors on this build and am investigating them right now. I think I've identified the error and, if so, will have a fix up for you within an hour. When that happens, I will update the original release post. For further discussion on Android-related bugs and problems, please use the comments on this post or come over to the Discord server.
I'm very sorry for this but will try to have it fixed ASAP.
For PC and Mac users: Sounds like everything is working fine for you but let me know if not.
