After the 1.4.1 update my TP only lasts for the battle, is that intentional?

I went back to an earlier version and it's back to lasting after battles

Thanks for reporting, yes updating 1.4.1 seems to have reset some of the TP setting. Fixed for 1.4.2 Version.

question I’m on the quest lost duck I’m a bit confused since I’m going to all the places they mentioned but I’m not getting anything am I doing something wrong? 

(2 edits)

Ahh, it's in the city but in a certain place that only happens every season.

Hmm I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, when I reach level 9 with Pander, then I visit the Guildmaster, but I still don't unlock the scene, I don't know how I am supposed to talk with the guildmaster, I mean I have already traded items, looked for the information, and even completed several missions, but still it does not work. Is Griff the guildmaster or I am supposed to go to a different location first?

(1 edit)

Griff is not the guildmaster, but you can encounter the guildmaster at the guild.

It seems like furniture disappear every time I leave home. I found my bed in furniture tab in item menu the first time it's gone but now it's not even in the item menu. And my slime is gone too. :O

Hi there I've gone and looked into this, unfortunately this might be limitations with the software and script being used in the game (That can affect certain computers/devices). 

If you encounter this problem you may need to load from an old save / previous save to see if this issue resolves otherwise I've added the bed in the Furniture store and a Merchant that sells all the pets for a low price in case anything like this happens. Apologies for this, hope this doesn't ruin your experience. 

(1 edit)

ok thx! I will try that

I don't know if this is normal, but whenever I get inside of a Dungeon, I always get soflock whenever I have several party members and I have already passed that "point", if I just so happens to try to go back and the party member is in the way at my back, then I automatically get soflock. I don't know if it is because the only way to advance a dungeon is to always go forward, and then you cannot explore all the dungeon.

Hey there. Sounds like you may have encountered a bug. Which version of the game are you playing on?

And the dungeon/floor that you got soft locked?

For some dungeons you can only move forward, up, down and cannot move backwards. (This only applies for the first few dungeons). Intentional for choice pathways and decision making. Theres is also an arrow movement legend/indicator on the bottom right of the dungeon level that highlights and indicates allowed movement.

Hi, yeah I think it was just a bug, I decided to just reinstall the whole game, and now it is working

Hey. I think i'm just bad or i don't understand. Every monster at the start just inflict me bleeding. They all hit very low damage, but bleed damage is like 10 flat, isn't that too much 

(1 edit)

Yes, some monster will inflict bleed. If you find yourself struggling. Do try going into the dungeon with a party of 3 first. You should be able to recruit a free member and pick up another character next to the bathhouse at the inn. If you're still struggling speak to Demi the innkeeper and check out the tutorials for ways to increase your survival rate. 

I think I'm just stupid.. but how do I leave a dungeon if I trap myself and I'm unable to move? Not sure if there was a hotkey for this I missed or something. Unless the only way to leave a dungeon is to die or reload..

Hi there. You may have encountered a bug. Please let me know which dungeon and floor you were on when you got soft locked. Thank you.  

To exit the dungeon you will be given the option to exit when using the fire place on each floor.

If you want to try and continue. Load your auto save file if you haven't already returned home this will put you back at the start of the same room you got soft locked.

(+1)

Yeah, I figured it was a bug after I couldn't move left later, thanks for the reply. Pretty sure it was at the start of the forest dungeon, where I could walk left and lock myself in. I've progressed a lot since then and haven't encountered any other issues, great game!

(+1)

I love this game so much! that when an new updated comes I don't mind beginning from zero again, and find new ways to optimize this new run, but I have experience two bugs with this new update. (1.3.7)

1: I Don't know what the condition is for this one to happens but sometimes is possible to walk one tile back on the dungeon map, but soon after... you get softlock, not being able to move in any direction.

2:after reaching the second dungeon, the cave, if you haven't recruit pander, he just disappear from the inn. to never been seen again :(

(2 edits)

Hi there thanks for the feedback and bug report! 
If ever you want to continue from your current run copy & paste your 'save folder' over to the new update.

I've gone ahead and fix the bug for potential backtracking which can soft lock your run. Part of 1.3.8 upload.

Certain characters that are to be recruited will appear inside the inn at a certain day/time and season. If you've missed them, don't worry they'll appear again. Do try using the bed to forward time and check the inn occasionally. Hope that helps!

I noticed when choosing the Zodiac, Capricorn is spelled Capricon. And when I selected it, it gave me an unknown, and has question marks. You mind fixing this?

Fixed and updated - Unfortunately the effects will only apply when starting a new game. Apologies for the bug and thank you for reporting.

Okay so when I downloaded the 1.3.8 version, I saw there is no game in there.

(1 edit)

I've re-uploaded the files again to fix the issue.

Hi I noticed a bug I think when Barry is in my party and I’m hitting a command on him after he uses said command he gets stuck on the command action but it doesn’t show any type of action for him he’s basically just stuck if there’s a way to fix it I’d appreciate it 

Hi there thanks for reporting, do you remember which command you used for him? Attack? Specific Skill? Item?

Honestly no I don’t cause I didn’t event noticed he was glitched after the battle was over sorry.

(1 edit)

I'll do some extensive tests with Barry to try and replicate this. Does the issue of Barry getting stuck on the command resolve itself when entering another battle? Or if this has happened to Barry consistently?

Well it kept happening each time I went into battle I hope that helps 

(1 edit)

The problem should now be resolved with the new update. Thank you again for reporting the bug!

I'm getting this game . Anything I should know about the future or others? Do I need to subscribe?

Nothing planned for the future or others, if you like some more background story to certain characters that I featured in this game from my previous games feel free, but also not neccessary (This game and the world is built around my Paws & Steel VN). No need to subscribe, appreciate for the support!

That's a shame, but I did hear you were done with VN's a couple of years ago after Paws & Steel, or am I mistaken. I played "My Part Time Lover.", only game I played. Anyways I won't get into details. I just wanna know: was the idea you had for this planned, or just in the back of your mind? Also, what's a good starting point as I am fairly new to the game?

(2 edits) (+2)

My goal has always been to make an RPG, ever since I started making games. VN's were a great introduction and learning curve and I moved on from Paws & Steel to make My Part Time Lover using RPG Maker. From there it was moving forward and making my RPG. 

This game was born from all the previous games I've made and everything I've learnt up until this point (Biggest learning curve was My Time At Etheria). It was never really planned but inspiration and motivation got me creating.

If you're new to the game, I'd say get a full party going before entering the dungeon, take on a quest from the guild, learn a physical skill and a magical skill, loot training medallions and increase stats with training. This is by no means in any correct order, and the game can be played in any way to suit your play style. Go wild, experiment, explore, adventure!

Thanks for the help

Bug I've noticed: when Gideon gets hit with a bleed effect, it seems to also affect the character in slot 2, even though they weren't subject to the initial attack otherwise.

Beyond that, just want to say that I'm enjoying the game so far. I'll probably have more feedback once I get farther in.

(2 edits)

Thank you so much for the bug report and extremely happy to know you're enjoying the game!

I'm super tempted to buy it but i only have android do you think it will work on joiplay or winlator?

Hi there, I believe someone has tried using joiplay in the past and it didn't work out. I'm not sure if winlator or any 3rd party software will work as well, I higly suggest downloading https://bara-diction.itch.io/my-time-at-etheria-demo and try running that first before purchasing any of the games not intended for android platform. Apologies and thank you for taking an interest in my games.

I reached level 9 with pander and I am vising the guild but the scene wont pop up? Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?

You may need to speak to the guildmaster to unlock it.

All characters have a preset position which can be found in the status menu.

As long as you have WINE-/Proton-Compatibility in mind and don't use copyright protection, that doesn't run on these, Mac- and Linux-users should be able to run it via those Compatibility Tools, I'm sure (even Steamdeck - which is Linux).

Thank you for the info! - My knowledge for having the game running on MAC is limited.
I have searched around and found that a deployed version of this game for MAC is playable. Research suggest moving the .app into the /Application for it to run. I'm not sure how accurate this is but I will release a Mac Version for those wanting to try this method.

A very good game. A well-thought-out plot. I hope there will be more sequels and updates. I especially like the bulls and bears. I wish there were more sex scenes and action with them.
