Iāve added a new demo link to the first post, containing chapter 1 of the revised game! (I will likely be doing private testing for the rest of the game, so consider this a teaser)
What's changed?
- Chapter One is now about 5,000 words longer, with at least 7-8,000 new words.
- Stats! There are now 5 skill stats. Iāve also unhidden some personality stats that were hidden before, though they were already in the old version of the game.
- More choices! Technically there are now 8 āendingsā you can get before the pit scene. Admittedly though 2 of them are similar to other ones, so itās more like 6.5.
- In general, a lot of balance tweaks (perfectly balanced, as all games should beā¦
)
Part of the reason for this is that Iām finding it tricky to set sensible stat boundaries in later chapters because Iām not sure how easy it is to get certain stat amounts for someone who doesnāt know the code backwards like I do. So it would really help if you could tell me what your skills stats look like at the end of the demo! (thereās a few more stat boosts in chapter 2 but not so many).

Will we be able to dabble a bit with the skills or is it best to stick with one or two skills that suit us?
I love the teaser and the added explanations. Canāt wait to play the whole thing! (and discover other lethal situations we can get out of with the audacious trait)

Thatās kind of what Iām trying to figure out! Sticking to one stat isnāt a good idea, as not every choice will use that stat.
I usually prefer to stick to two particular stats that suit my character the most, and use them alternately so they both increase and I donāt have to rely on one stat. That moves the story along nicely unless the stat-checks are intentionally made difficult to pass. Would that be a bad idea in this game, to leave a few of the traits at a pretty low percentage?

So I have a question. I like the story so far, but I notice whenever there is an update, the save files I have never work. It just continuously loads and never gets anywhere. It seems like this is a probably with most WIPās where I have made save files. Is this just how it happens for everyone orā¦?

Hereās my stats after the demo ends:
@Joe_Smoe
The save plug-in have a tendency to do that when the author update their demo. Itās not much important though since this one is on queue for publication and the final product donāt have a save plug-in anyway. It could be a bit of a hassle for the author to check out the save issue for this title.
If you have problems with other WIPs, it is best to ask over their respective thread or ask over this thread:

Looks like youāre getting the stats higher than I thought might be possible for more than one stat, thatās good to know! Two high stats is probably the sweet spot.
Did anyone jump into the crocodile pit though??

I jumped in the pit my first time through. Best miss-click of my life.
I did! It felt very rewarding particularly as at that point, I had already decided thrills was good. Iām very excited about more choices that increase that stat.
