Hey! Actually there were but they got corrupted due to an issue. I'm still trying to recreate them now. originally, there's gonna be an update to this game. I originally wanted to do a sequel to it, but I may transform this game as a whole if I find the time. Although I'm gonna leave the original game avalable as a download if I did make major changes to it though. So stay tuned for that! All I can say is that it's gonna be more mystery focused and maybe even a bit spooky too. So hey, If that sounds fun to you, then stick around! :D
hello! sorry for the bother but I saved and closed the game a while ago and went to open it again but it says my file is missing? what should I do if I don't want to lose my save? on windows btw! :D
Hi!! I might sound a bit stupid right now, but i can not for the life of me find the first password for Teal's appearance -_- . I checked the read_before_playing dozens of times and ive looked for log.txt but i cant find any password... please help lol
hi!!! this game seems pretty neat ^^ im having a bit of trouble though. i'm looking for the ||spoilers|| passwordforthesavepointandcan'tfindthelastnumber ||spoiler|| was this intentional?
Yep, I have! Sorry for the late reply. I don't have my notebook but I believe it was the last number I am missing? If there were seven numbers, I'm missing the seventh.
I'm sad, you said you don't know Mac and while I found the Spectra folder there's no version number and when it "transfers" there's no "console__manual.txt" :( guess I can't play this ever sad :((
aaaa! i love this programm! the levels of stuff i can do with it is amazing! although, the trouble shooting isnt as easy as it said it was, but its worth to go through!
Letting you know that this isn't working properly on my Mac right now. How are you writing the file for the manual? Trace:

I've tried to move the folder to various locations on my computer, but it seems that it's always trying to write to the path above.
That sounds like a big issue. I’ll look over it but I can’t promise that it’ll work. I don’t have a mac myself and i’m not too familiar with the software.
Giving a quick update: this is going to be slightly more complicated than I thought.
I'm assuming you're working off of the code that was provided from this Reddit thread: https://bit.ly/2Hsdp1d
If so, then the big thing to figure out is how to replicate the file structure of Doki Doki Literature Club (DDLC). As it currently stands, that piece of code will try to look inside the .app file for the Mac, whereas you want the file to be generated on the same level as the .app file. This means that you'll want to replicate the file structure of DDLC. A quick examination on Steam shows that it packages a .app file separately from the rest of its scripts and resources, so that way basedir will be able to find the .app file. Maybe someone who is more proficient with Ren'py can help with this, as it seems like a potential paradigm that can be repeated for file distribution. Otherwise, I'll try taking a stab at this later.

Hey! I'm wondering if there are any more hidden secrets in the sm and personal files folder (or anywhere in general), great game btw!

Also sorry for the late reply.
Hi I can't find red's password I checked The Games folder i still can't find password sorry for bad english
Spoiler!
If you look at the post it note you’ll find it when visiting the link written on it.
I followed The link and twitter says the page doesn't exist
did you download the updated version?
Ok it was a mistake on my end. Ive changed the name of the Twitter account. now it should work if you type it in.
Ok thanks
Hope it does work for you now ^^
Loved the game but I was honestly disappointed abt the drawing app at the end umu
I inderstand that. Maybe if I’ll figure out how to make something that is exactly like what the game talks about i’ll include it
Hmmmmmmm
hello! sorry for the bother but I saved and closed the game a while ago and went to open it again but it says my file is missing? what should I do if I don't want to lose my save? on windows btw! :D
That is certainly unusual. I don‘t know if its a bug but thats not supposed to happen. Maybe save your saves folder and make a backup?

Thank you so much ^^
You‘re welcome.

No, that's strange. Have you looked around the Control Room yet? What number are you missing?
Yep, I have! Sorry for the late reply. I don't have my notebook but I believe it was the last number I am missing? If there were seven numbers, I'm missing the seventh.
I think there are only 6 if i remember correctly.
I'm sad, you said you don't know Mac and while I found the Spectra folder there's no version number and when it "transfers" there's no "console__manual.txt" :( guess I can't play this ever sad :((
I’m currently trying to fix the issue.
Ah okay! Thank you
Ok. I've updated it, now it should work. If it still doesn't, please let me know.
It works now! Thank you :)
Thank you for your patience!
aaaa! i love this programm! the levels of stuff i can do with it is amazing! although, the trouble shooting isnt as easy as it said it was, but its worth to go through!
Thank you! I’m glad you are enjoying it!

Willing to help test/debug. Quick search yielded this GitHub issue that might help:
https://github.com/renpy/renpy/issues/266
I'll try to reproduce with a renpy snippet when I get to a computer.

Ah, it's simpler than I thought.
Could you try exporting via the "Windows, Mac, Linux for Markets" option? That should result in the appropriate file structure for this to work.
Ok. I’ll update it.
Ok. I've updated it, now it should work. If it still doesn't, please let me know.
i love this game, but i cannot find the console__manualtxt
It can be found in the Spectra Folder that came with the download. the one where you start the game from.
Too advanced for my outdated hardware, but it ran surprisingly well
You must be very lucky!
