The Odessa Dating Games (WIP) - UPDATING IN MID-JULY!

Ah thanks.

You rock as usual! All these errors have been fixed and I’ll upload them shortly.

What are the choices that you tried to pick? I believe there’s some options I still have coded left over from when that was the last update you could play.

:laughing: Fixed both of these. Thanks!

LOL. Let’s just say anybody near Julie after the press conference aired heard some quite colorful language and furious typing for a few hours.

:laughing: Thank you for catching that error! Which Heir route was this? (Aloof, sarcastic, etc.)

Fixed! Thanks Lupita :smile:

@Hearts Fixed, thanks!

Yes, sure did LOL.

Aww, you’re too kind! That line was my favorite too :laughing:

Yes, that is a mistake. I plan on making this not as specific so avoid this confusion if you choose a dress or any type of gown option. It’ll be fixed soon! Thanks for catching it!

@L0G1C: AWWWW THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY!!!

I’ve been trying to get the king to pay my college debts.
So is it just the Rude Heir that has the question bug?

Hey again! Now that I have sleep in me, I can go into more detail about what has been fixed/changed/etc:

  • Fixed error where your name would pop up next to the Heir’s customization in both the default royal route and the custom default route. getting ahead of myself, teehee
  • Fixed error where you couldn’t ask the mean heir questions in either royal route.
  • You guys should be able to ask questions to all of the different royals now, but let me know if you can’t.
  • In the next few updates, you’ll be able to see when the POV’s change. Right now it’s just when you play at the heir, but they will be put into earlier chapters with Queen Juliet and Lyon. This will be a thing going forward so you always know who you’re playing as!
  • Fixed spelling mistakes, typos, broke up text, etc. and other small but very important things.
  • I’ve added personality values during all the meetings and garden scenes, so your personality count should be accurate up until, obviously, where the game stops atm lol.

Don’t worry, those two new routes are coming, as well as more inclusive clothing options and the other bugs/mistakes that were mentioned earlier. Once I push out the royal goodbye, I’ll be working on those before you can hit downtown Dia. :wink:

Thanks for all the feedback so far. You guys rock!

I believe it’s both the rude heir and the flirty heir routes. It should be fixed now, just pushed out the new update.

As for talking to the King about your college debts, I’ll fix that soon. I actually know what part you’re talking about!

Tandra, my love, yes!! :purple_heart:

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to progress past the second question (by past the second question, I mean I wasn’t able to even see the answers to it)

In this game the heir is a Charming!Prince. I tried playing through as both a Charming!MC and Sarcastic!MC but both playthroughs stop at this choice.

For some reason, I’m not able to look at the Chapter 2 code :unamused: so I can’t help you find the bug. Is it an issue with Dashingdon or?

I have only played the charming heir so far, but really like them! They clearly are focused on their role but also clearly have personality and their own interests! They are also clearly politically astute, with them predicting the coming abdication of their father.

I got an error with shy MC and sarcastic Heir when MC greets them.

@tandra88 so at the “MC stops asking questions” choice, I ran into a bug (not unlike what the others got):

Also on the topic of the Charming!Prince, I was confused about his reactions to the last 3 questions on the menu.

When we initially switch to his POV, he seems to care a lot about what our MC thinks about him (e.g. wearing the native flower accessory, drowning himself in body spray). I think it’s pretty on-brand for his personality type to want to make good first impressions.

When my MC asks him if he’s nervous, he answers curtly, which is kind of jarring. He says:

““Am I nervous about having a bunch of mostly unqualified people competing for my hand? No,” I answer.”

His saying “unqualified people” lowkey feels like a backhanded burn.

I get that just because you’re mainly a charming person, that doesn’t mean you’re incapable of feeling salty. :salt:

However, I feel like it’s way too early for Charming!Prince to start releasing the snark, iykwim. It’s his first meeting ever with the MC, so I’d like to think he would probably try to keep it together (and be as pleasant as possible) for now.

His inside thoughts to what it’s like being the Prince are kind of an odd fit with the Charming personality, but I think I can see where it’s coming from.

So on the last question, Maeve asks her Charming!Prince Hale why he’s so rude, and we get to read this strange bit of dialogue:

Last question spoiler!

Ah yes, the question that has been asked constantly since I was born.

“Well, because I can be?” I reply. “Take it or leave it. I’m not a people pleaser and could care less if somebody likes me or not.”

Maeve’s eyebrows furrow in thought. God, was I about to be mentally dissected?

“I think deep down you’re pretty nice,” Maeve says and yeah, I think I would’ve rather been mentally dissected.

“Oh please. Some people are just mean, Maeve,” I reply and roll my eyes. “Sorry to disappoint you.”

Like whoa, back up, buddy. This I expect from the other Heir personality types (save for Flirty and Shy, maybe) but not from Charming, for sure.

In my mind, I guess, Charming!Prince is the definition of a people-pleaser. So for him to go and blatantly blurt that he isn’t a people-pleaser and could care less about whether people like him is very off-character imo.

Just wanted to bring this up in case this wasn’t your intention! If it was, then I’m intrigued as to how this will continue to play out!

Wait so for every scene, do you have a subroutine for each type of heir contained within it or do you have a separate scene made for each type of heir?

It is not a bug, the scene is supposed to end there since the other part hasn’t been added yet.

I think it might be something with the code. I got a question that asks why the charming Heir is so rude. “How dare they wear a flower from my hometown!” Maybe?

hey, I really love this wip so far! I got this bug during the garden scene with the Prince, he has the aloof personality. When im finished asking questions and try to move on this error pops up

That is not an error, currently that is the end of the demo.

Hi @tandra88

I would suggest to put an update log in your first post in order for newcomers to see when the demo ends. This will help a bit to lessen the same concern.

Looking forward to your future updates. :smiley:
