It’s time for more news about my game - a totally free RPG/strategy simulator in which you take on the role of a Dark Lord attempting to conquer or destroy a fantasy world through schemes, dark magic, and military might.I’ve rolled out another major update. I’ve finally acted on the suggestions that came up repeatedly in our previous conversations, and now:1) Statistics are displayed on the side, via a drop-down menu, rather than at the bottom of the screen below the text. 2) When base stats change as a result of a player's decision or an in-game event, the game explicitly communicates this change.These are the most important new features; in addition, I have of course added new scenes, events, and graphics.If you would like to help test the latest version, please visit this link: https://adeptus7.itch.io/playtesting. After playing, please let me know which character you chose and whether you won or lost (including a brief description of how your game ended). If you encounter anything that looks like a bug, please send a screenshot (with your stats visible). If you run into a blank screen, please describe the scene that preceded it. If you would like to be included in the acknowledgments, please let me know here or via email at [email protected].
>>2505665Nice, I'll check it out OP. I genuinely want more writing based strategy games and RPGs (I recommend Roadwarden and almost recommend Cyberpunkdreams).
>AI slopsigh
>>2505754Thanks! When You play, please tell me, what You think.And thanks for recommendations - I know Roadwarden, but I have not heard about Cyberpunkdreams before.
>>2505665New stats are big step in the right direction, but UI still looks shit. This is first time when I defeated BDSM demon final boss, have you nerfed him?
>>2505665thanks. i'll check it out later...>>2505754i /rec/ fighting fantasy gamebooks but they're not /vst/. and their /sci/fi books kind of suck. and the app adaptations seem overpriced to me.
>>2505665the pic for Elf Queen X Vampire Grill segs is missing, Anon Poland? maybe you should pay ImgBB or whatever to host your pics more permanently.
>>2506739ok nevermind. i think my adblocker blocked it from loading,so it returned an error instead of a placeholder square. working now.it was this pic> i.ibb.co slash tpbB7vXF slash w-Sp-Pg.jpg4channels thinks imgbb is "spam"....>our sys thinks your post is spam
>>2506739Thanks for pointing out the issue. It looks like this isn't a bug in the game's code; rather, the 'ibb' service sometimes gets overloaded, which is why it occasionally fails to display images correctly. I’ll definitely need to consider moving them somewhere else.
Got a bullshit ending that made me feel like I wasted 20 minutes of my life.>playing game for like 15 minutes >get event about sacrificing to a volcano god Ok I’ll sacrifice >no option to sacrifice anything even tho I have a bunch of money and soldiers and shit >5 mins later get losing ending because I didn’t sacrifice even though I wanted to
>>2508212But the game seems cool I’m not trying to just trash it, I love the concept and enjoy the gameplay loop even if it’s very simple. One other issue I’d say is that for a lot of the events early on I just couldn’t interact with them because I didn’t have whatever I was missing yet which wasn’t clear what that would even be.
>>2508212Thank You very much. You are not first player who tells me about this problem... However I still don;t see reson for it. I do not see any bug in this scene - if You have at least 3 Wealth, You should have an option to sacrifice it. I asked another Twine creator to check it and he don;t see bug too... Do You remember how much Wealth You had when "do you want make a sacrifice" event appeared? And what difficulty level were You playing?
>>2505665https://fightingfantazine.co.uk/product/issue-17-august-27th-2022/kind of related. fighting fantasy fanzine had a barbarian warlord minigame that OP might wanna check out for inspiration. but it's less grimdark and more crush kill and plunder. it's probably more fun for people who read some of the FF gamebooks before, as you get to kick the ass of various powerful endgame bosses and superwizards, and some asshole paladin in the game.>inb5 banned for /tg/
>>2509555>https://fightingfantazine.co.uk/product/issue-17-august-27th-2022/Thanks, I have downloaded it!
>>2505665>https://adeptus7.itch.io/playtesting.I gave it a shot. A neat distraction, but I didn't have much motivation to continue after Dozakannor kicked my ass lol
>>2510929>I gave it a shot. A neat distraction, but I didn't have much motivation to continue after Dozakannor kicked my ass lolThank You for playing! What difficulty level? Any bugs?
>>2508887Maybe I didn’t have 3 wealth but I had no opportunity to get 3 wealth so it’s kind of bullshit, maybe make an option to sacrifice soldiers too or something
>>2513158Sorry, do You remember what difficulty level it was?
