"Jolly Good: Cakes and Ale"—Get yourself in and out of another fine mess!

I am about three hours in on my first playthrough and can’t even count the amount of times I’ve chuckled or outright laughed out loud. Really loving this one (despite admittedly not having enjoyed Tally Ho that much due to its genre - which may be a good thing to note for others who might have felt the same!).

Looking forward to exploring the different branches! The witty dialogue (and narrative) are tremendous fun and I imagine the same will be true for other paths.

So, we’ve finally figured out what was causing crashes in chapter 6 of the game on the Android omnibus: the game file was just too big!

It’s going to take us several days to deploy a fix to all platforms, but at least we now know what the problem is.

I hope that didn’t damage to much sales.

I assumed that

Game is good, really good. Despite being 1 200 000 in words it felt kinda short. I know it may be the diversity of choices that appealing, but Tin Star felt both very diverse and at the same time triple as long as this story. Moreover no truly evil choice weve got in this one. You could do some nasty business but the story is forcefully moving your adventure of a goody fella even if you dont really want to. However, it was written in a very entertaining way and everyone will enjoy the game.

Is it possible to save your character yet?

The ability to save your character will be added when I get very close to completing the game. I have three chapters to go!

You can track my progress on Tea and Scones in the first post of this thread: Jolly Good: Tea and Scones. I update this first post every time I work on it (which will resume after my semester ends and final grades are in for fall)!

Hi everyone! This is just a little announcement to say that I will be live playing through the prologue and chapter 1 of Cakes and Ale over on Jacket.FM to celebrate the progress that’s being made on Tea and Scones. If you join the live booth, you will get the chance to discuss the game as it’s being played and vote on choices!
Here is the link to the Jacket.FM website, and here is the announcement post that I made about it yesterday. If you don’t feel like listening to the whole thing, the booth will be starting today, at 1:30 PM eastern time. I hope to see you there!

Hi guys. Unfortunately no one showed up to the stream, so it’s canceled for now.
