I wanted to ask if this game was safe for streaming on Twitch, as in is there graphic nudity or copyrighted music?
Well, there is one explicit gore scene and another scene with heroine in shower. Also music tracks from various megaten titles. So I don't really know what can be copyrighted. Maybe you can edit out some stuff from the stream.
Megaten music is fine, since it's game music. And as long as there isn't graphic sex, I think I'll be okay! Thanks for replying!
a megami tensei game with a girl as the protagonist? i have to play it for that alone.
This looks interesting.
Great! Enjoyed playing it.
I really like the art style, good job!
I founs a bug in the android version i notice whenever the game loads a new scene it crashes can you fix it please ?
What do you mean by "loads a new scene"? From savefile?
I almost finished the game on my phone without any bugs.
Then it might be just me . What I mean is whenever the game changes the background or a choice pops up it crashes
I will try to see what is going on on my side and I will try to fix it if I experience anymore problems I will make sure to tell you
This is weird. Renpy is visual novel engine, there shoudn't be any problems with basic stuff like backgrounds and choices.
I have android version 12, if this would help.
Turns out Renpy doesn't run so good on low end devices like mine I have googled the problem and one of the problems is it needs more than 3 gigs of ram to run
So the problem is I need to upgrade my phone
I prefer playing games on PC anyway, if this is available option.
I was recommended this by a friend, and I gotta say, it is one of the best, and really only, fan made SMT games I've played
Thanks. Currently I working on a sequel with focus on dungeon crawling.
Quick question just so I know what I'm getting into: most games that would have a lust stat are H-games. Is this an H-game, and if so, is it the kind where the gameplay is extremely basic RPGMaker and pretty much just there as a token effort or is this a legit attempt at an SMT-like?
This is SMT-like game, Lust stat affects some choices and enemies skills.
There are couple of 'mature' scenes with naked heroine in shower and one gore scene during investigation. That's it.
Woo.
