@Doriana-Gray I’m afraid the game has so many words I wouldnt even know where to begin answering this without context..

It won’t allow me to send screenshots

Would it be possible to get a version of the demo on cogdemos at some point? The one on itch is almost unplayable for me because if I have to put it down it my playthrough and saves will be gone when I get back. I still haven’t gotten to the new content because every time I come back to the ipad I’m having to restart.

If not that fine, I’ll make do.

Their loss :person_shrugging: I’d like to see what they do if they ever needed someone to solve some case.

Go whine to useless constables, you noble asshole.

I really like having everything in one place… so, tbh, I’m not sure.

But this is an issue with some browsers and some phones, as the cookies aren’t saved and kept as long everywhere, + some security settings. I am afraid I did not make the save system, so I would have no way of knowing how to make an import/export system.

One solution that has worked for some on phone, is switching to another brower or:

One final method is–

  • On desktop, start the game.
  • Once loaded, right click on the grey BG of the game.
  • Choose the one that says somehting like “open in new frame/window”.
  • This page that is created here, when you do that, it circumvents some of itch stuff that can mess with the saves. So this version of the game might be more robust (depending on what’s the issue with your platform/browser/security-setting).
  • you can send yourself this link that appears in the address bar if you want to play it on your phone!

Here’s the current version of the public game version with this (it will reset when i update any file so thats why im including how to make one): https://html-classic.itch.zone/html/16016395/index.html

You need to @moderators, I believe, but not being able to attach screenshots is a user level issue on the user’s part.

Lestrade has my heart :purple_heart:
I really appreciate the short mention of Jane Austen before reaching his scene - that made it even more enjoyable!

And I am so amazed at all the variables you have created when choosing our outfit for the ball :open_mouth: I can’t even imagine how long that must have taken!

Greatly looking forward to more :smiley:

Ohh wait which Jane Austen reference? Because I have a lot of them… :laughing::face_with_peeking_eye: I think maybe my fav is one if you’re arguing with L in ch2.

Ngl, if I remade the dress up chapter I would have been nicer to my future and present self with that dress up system :melting_face: I don’t recommend it…

:smiling_face: looking forward to showing more soon!

So I somehow managed to forget about this !!very memorable!! IF for a while, and then when I picked it back up not so long ago, I was so delighted to find that it had had an update in the meantime. Needless to say, I enjoyed the heck out of the ball. Literally. I don’t think I could have had a better time reading that.
Here’s a question tho. How much do you hate Adler?? Bcs between making them kneel and then BRUTALLY rejecting them, the MC is spoiled for ways to torment that poor thing. Although I do on some level believe they deserve it. Don’t know enough about them yet, but something tells me they do.

I don’t know how much Doriana hates them, but I wouldn’t mind if she killed that character and had Sherlock solve their murder case!

Oh no I wouldn’t want that!! Like, personally. I think I really like them.

@Doriana-Gray in that demo on itchio all saves disappear after I leave the site and come back.

This is something that unfortunately can happen with itchio - it’s something to do with what browser you use or the settings I think. If you scroll up about 8ish posts above the author did give a possible solution to this though. :slight_smile:

:heart: Oh, hi again!!! :face_holding_back_tears: I hope you are well!

:laughing: Ok so, I do actually really like writing Adler, despite me probably helping to perpetuate a joke that they’re the runt of the litter. (They are very fun to bully though…). And there will be an alternative Adler intro version with the next update that’s less MC as Dom and serious, and Adler as the Sub brat type. It’s for the more soft MCs, and Adler is… well, less bullied atleast!

Also, yes :relieved_face: they do deserve it.

Lol

Yes! This, thank you. Link here to the post.
I haven’t had as much time to find further alternative fixes. There might be some, but for now this has proven to be the most useful fix.

Hi :pink_heart:

Pls don’t misunderstand me tho, I never got the impression you don’t like writing Adler!! Actually it read as though you had quite a lot of fun with them lol just that you enjoyed tormenting them, which frankly, I would too :innocent:

I rly like the options we’re given, for my own personal play style. I like when the MC isn’t always a softie

Will there also be a version for those who want Adler to leave them alone and stay away? :upside_down_face:

@girlfromthecrypt Ahh! No no, It’s just a common joke in fandom :laughing: :heart:
:blush: I’m really glad you liked it!

@Adagio Not really until later on on, they have their part to play in story, and all the characters need their scenes to be properly introduced etc.
