Just to be sure, you're clicking the download button from your library, correct? The one under the heading "Things you own"?
NOT the download button on this page? And NOT the one from the new version update?
EDIT: I may have found the reason I had no issues; I "purchased the game on 2024-06-01 04:35:57 for $10.00" and thus any price increase under that amount doesn't affect me. Having enjoyed the free game very much before that, I had no qualms about paying more than the asking price.
i seem to have a bug that has been persisting for multiple versions where there just isnt a sophie drop point in the village? am I completely blind what?
You can go to the folder that the error says and copy a random file and rename it to what is failing to load. A temporary fix if you just want to progress. works in 90% of failed to load errors
In your specific case you should go to game folder/data/audio/se copy a random file and rename it to "Bellows A"
few bugs/issues i've noticed atm 1. At the chicken area of the Explorer HQ and replay the scene for boss chicken, i get a failed to load error message if i win or lose against the boss, the only safe option is to watch the girl get eaten.
2. If i replay the scene with the Priestess and Demon the msq tracker points me to report back to the princess, when the princess has already escaped and is gone from the game
Edit: 3. Fighting the pelican at Travel tower caused same issue as 1. No Pelican image loaded during the battle and after defeating it a Failed to load message popped up with a retry button that leads to nowhere.
Also i think the autosaves are too frequent feels like the game is autosaving at times it shouldn't be, like when map/screen changes due to failure/ loss in a battle or minigame and etc
if you own it, oppi trying to fix the price thing for people who bought the game. They was trying to charge a dollar more for new people buying the game so they are trying to fix it right now for people who already bought it before the price change
It only works if you overpaid, but are screwed if the price increases above what you paid. I created a feature request #1775 on the itchio Github. Maybe if enough people pile onto it it will get addressed.
msq currently stuck at point after we escorted princess to travel tower n watched her escape in 2.9.2 transferred save file from that point but my msq hasn't updated since. Is there meant to be something after this point?
Oh boy, I just noticed what's going on with the price change.. I intended to increase the price by 1$ for future customers, never intending to make every past customer pay an additional 7$. My worst case scenario was that people would have to pay an additional 1$ but itch seems to work kind of differently.. Sorry about all of this, I'll try to find a solution asap! I'll notify everybody as soon as I have!
Yeah I figured that's what happened... it's kind of sad imo to see many people immediately jump to negative conclusions, like you trying to shill out or scam more money out of your fans.. Happy to see you reading the comments though! not every dev goes through the 'hassle' of reading their fans' comments and feedback
Oppi, if you clicked "Set a different price for this file" when uploading, what you did is set a price just for 0.3.2 that ignores the project's price and any previous payment. You need to change the price of the project for previous buyers to have access. https://itch.io/t/987840/what-happens-if-i-increase-the-price
Yep that's what I did! The project's price is 0$.. I always used the "set a different price for this file" for the newest update.. Hmm.. If I change the project's price, nobody will have access to it? I'll figure this out somehow..
Best thing to do right now might be to try editing the current file back down to $6 and see if that restores access, but I don't think it will work since my download link takes me to 0.2.9.2.
The big problem is using it to have your game show up in the free games section, and using a paid file as the full game. Itch intended it to act like "DLC" for a game that already has a base price of $6 so you would just pay $1 extra for a separate file, or just raise the base price to $7 for new buyers without affecting previous buyers. They don't make that clear on the actual interface for uploading files and setting price, it's in a support document. https://itch.io/docs/creators/pricing#purchase-tiers-through-individually-priced...
What devs and users need to do is complain to Itch to allow users to increase an existing donation to a file, but I doubt they'll do anything because they'll say "we tell you in the support documents", and it looks like people have been complaining for years in multiple threads...
I think you'll have to upload a separate $0 version of 0.2.9.2 for public download, and replace the old 0.2.9.2 with the new 0.3.2 set to $6 so previous buyers, unique purchase links work.
I don't know if its something I'm missing or if its actually broken now but the arena girl doesnt work...have tried a new save, fresh reinstall and going straight to her, and finishing almost all the other scenes in the game. Any ideas on whats going on
What upsets me the most is not that the price went up or you have to rebuy, But the face that we were not told beforehand and they haven't responded to any of the comments about it. That makes me lose respect for the developer.
I'm leaning more towards the need to buy it again being unintentional mainly since it wasn't mentioned in the update blog. I remember the windows version wasn't uploaded for a few day around version 0.2.2. Another factor in if it's an oversight is the fact the creator doesn't need to buy the game from itch.io. If anybody here got it though the Patreon link, can you confirm if you had to pay again?
Sooooo, i understand upping the price when you believe you provide a better quality service/item.
not me complaining about it instead i happened to pay for the game twice in the span of multiple months which i left alone since i was fine leaving the accidental extra support untouched, which would mean I've given over 7$ but I'm still unable to download the game.
I can naturally provide proof of me paying twice in total
Has anyone been able to play the new update without having o buy it again? If not, then it is a pretty scummy thing to charge more when people already paid. I didn't know we were dealing with EA
Does everyone that bought this before have to buy it again since the price went up? I paid for it over a year ago and I was not made aware that I would have to pay again.
so no one can download it because the price when up by a $1 i think
Anyway can I get a link or something to the new version since I bought this game twice by mistake about a year ago and didn't really care but now i feel like cashing in
Yeah, if there was an option to top off with an additional dollar, I wouldn't mind. But my trust issues make me think that it'll devolve into some sort of scheme.
No offence meant to anyone, as stated above, I have trust issues :|
There is a chance the dev decided to quietly update the price for latest version but didn't actually intend to screw over people who payed for previous versions.
I'm thinking that is happening due to the price getting changed to be 7$ rather than 6$. 'Cause that's what I paid originally, and I'm having the same issue.
I highly recommend you start a new game if you're playing update 0.3.2 as some new things are not quite compatible with older saves. If you're playing an older version, just copy the save folder from your old game and paste it to your new game:)
I mean, if you search well, you can have it now B-) But this time, even when I can pirate the new version, I'm gonna pay him 5$. I won't subscribe thou because I'm sceptical to that method after subscribing to Vessel Tactics for 6 months. In this time period there was like one update (bug fix, nothing meaningfull and many bugs were left anyway) I have a feeling that the author does the bare minimum just to party for patrons money. Situation here is much better, Oppi does good work and deservs the stuff. But still, if I have to pay once per month, I would like to have an update once a month. (or at least keep it close to that period)
Hey! Update 0.2.9 is free now! Sorry for the long wait! The newest update took a while heh.. I'll release update 0.3.2 as a paid option in 2 to 3 days here on itch!
Stage 6 should be thicc/plump, but in a good way, stage 7 could be BBW, then people would have a reason to use/pay for gym, imo most ppl gonna keep Sabrina in stage 5 cause it's fireee. At the end of the day everything lays in hands of the author
A few years ago I asked the same question, "Any stages planned beyond 5?" and got a very forward answer that it won't be happening and it'd be too much work.
Understandable. Sad though, what drew me to Oppi's game (and the original "A way back home") was the rare and welcome occurance of well done weight gain in a vore game with great visuals.
Hah, yea, I would never expect myself to polish my lance to some pixelized sprite images, but here I am now lol
Who knows, maybe in the far future, in case when it is going to be his flagship/money milking game and the plot is finished, he might have some more time to spare and pimp that out, one more T.H.I.C.C stage would be welcomed
(Btw, u convinced me to play "A way back home", over and out o7)
Anyone play this on a steam deck or any pc handheld in general? I want to get a pc handheld to play this among many other games. Just want to check it works on one.

Do we have some fix about price or buy again?
I created a feature request on their Github. Maybe if enough people pile onto it it will get addressed. https://github.com/itchio/itch.io/issues/1775
I simply cannot complete this mission where I have to craft a Thin Leather Bant, but I have someone who can help me.
Just to let you know the Mac port isn't working.
As in it wont launch.
well there another missing pic oppi. just started fight with Hornets btw
Is the price thing solved?
At the very least, I was able to download the new version just fine from my library. No extra money was charged.
nope, still can't download it. And yes, I've paid 6$ before this version.
Just to be sure, you're clicking the download button from your library, correct? The one under the heading "Things you own"?

Same, cant seem to figure out where you are supposed to let her out tbh, no mention in the guide either.
edit: outside south gate, eastern wall, the icon is REALLY small.
I keep getting an error when I try to use forge/smelt, and it throws up "Failed to load audio/se/Bellows%20A.ogg." How can I fix this? 0.3.2

What's going on with the game price? Is it being changed for previous owners or do we have to rebuy it again?
if you own it, oppi trying to fix the price thing for people who bought the game. They was trying to charge a dollar more for new people buying the game so they are trying to fix it right now for people who already bought it before the price change
yeah, was hoping it would be sorted by now. Probably expecting to be sorted to quick
so what i am getting from this post is if you buy it once even if the page updates with a new update you dont need to pay to get it again?
That’s how it’s supposed to go. For some reason though, there seems to be an issue with this update preventing those people from updating
It only works if you overpaid, but are screwed if the price increases above what you paid. I created a feature request #1775 on the itchio Github. Maybe if enough people pile onto it it will get addressed.

I bought a pickaxe, but I still can't start mining, the ore requires a level 1 skill, I have 1 level, please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
is there any MSQ update? since the princess escaped?
quest log doesn't seem to be updated
Also who was or is Mahiro? can't remember
Think Mahiro is the girl who helps you get the key from the frog in the magic school memory
magic school?
The sequence at the end of the main plot
msq currently stuck at point after we escorted princess to travel tower n watched her escape in 2.9.2
transferred save file from that point but my msq hasn't updated since.
Is there meant to be something after this point?
yeah, I mean that point is in 2.9.2 as well
hey... just wondering... how do i transfer my progress to the new update? i completed the 2.8
nvm i figured it out but what is the blue orb and how do i get it?
Beat a large frog monster to get it and you can combine it with a coin from the panty vendor to create an instant teleporter to your home
but where can i craft it now ??
Spellbook in your home
where is the frog?

Why i buy it but just get up to 0.2.9 (buy last time 240 day)
I'm thinking that is happening due to the price getting changed to be 7$ rather than 6$. 'Cause that's what I paid originally, and I'm having the same issue.
Same I bought the game 266 day's ago

I cant download the New Version, in the window where i buyed the Game.

yo do we have to rebuy the game again for another 7$?

I can't find the club house, I forgor where the guild said it was
It's the tower on the world map
Когда выйдет обновление?
How do I launch this game on my iPhone? I downloaded the file, but I don't know how to launch the game.
You'd need something like Joiplay if there is an ios version, not knowledgeable but the game should run with it if it has an ios version
At the next update SHW Guide too?
How long will there be new game updates?
Update 0.2.9 is free now! I'll release 0.3.2 in a couple days too:)
we getting 2.9 in a few days I'm guessing?
I mean, if you search well, you can have it now B-) But this time, even when I can pirate the new version, I'm gonna pay him 5$. I won't subscribe thou because I'm sceptical to that method after subscribing to Vessel Tactics for 6 months. In this time period there was like one update (bug fix, nothing meaningfull and many bugs were left anyway) I have a feeling that the author does the bare minimum just to party for patrons money. Situation here is much better, Oppi does good work and deservs the stuff. But still, if I have to pay once per month, I would like to have an update once a month. (or at least keep it close to that period)
i'm only asking since i remember seeing a comment they'd post it some time in the first half of this month
Sorry i got carried away lol
Hey! Update 0.2.9 is free now! Sorry for the long wait! The newest update took a while heh.. I'll release update 0.3.2 as a paid option in 2 to 3 days here on itch!
Are you make her slowly turn BBW?
Stage 6 should be thicc/plump, but in a good way, stage 7 could be BBW, then people would have a reason to use/pay for gym, imo most ppl gonna keep Sabrina in stage 5 cause it's fireee. At the end of the day everything lays in hands of the author
A few years ago I asked the same question, "Any stages planned beyond 5?" and got a very forward answer that it won't be happening and it'd be too much work.
Understandable. Sad though, what drew me to Oppi's game (and the original "A way back home") was the rare and welcome occurance of well done weight gain in a vore game with great visuals.
Hah, yea, I would never expect myself to polish my lance to some pixelized sprite images, but here I am now lol
Who knows, maybe in the far future, in case when it is going to be his flagship/money milking game and the plot is finished, he might have some more time to spare and pimp that out, one more T.H.I.C.C stage would be welcomed
(Btw, u convinced me to play "A way back home", over and out o7)
Anyone play this on a steam deck or any pc handheld in general? I want to get a pc handheld to play this among many other games. Just want to check it works on one.
I play it on Steam Deck just fine
Can this game be made playable on a tablet?please
