October 1 Update
Added 2017-10-01 20:12:53 +0000 UTCThree things are going to happen this month:
1) Wrapping up random break projects.
2) Patreon-only release of Desecration of Wings.
3) Switch to working full time on TLS again.
Those things aren't in order of operation, since they'll happen somewhat simultaneously. I hope to be working mostly on TLS well before the end of the month.
Having said that, it's time to talk about DoW. If you haven't read about it in the past, please do read the previous linked post. Much of the work is done, so I'd like to recruit a few testers who are willing to play the game in less than optimal state.
Now, to be clear, it's not like the game is a buggy mess. I think it should play okay. But there will be placeholders, including some really ugly programmer art. You'll see major parts of the story in a way that I really didn't intend people to experience it.
If you're still interested, please speak up! The most important thing is having some time to play over the coming weeks - if you're busy, better to just play a more polished version a little later. I need people who can provide feedback, both on story and gameplay. The ideal person would also have RPG Maker VX (not Ace), but that's not critical.
So anyway, if you've been a patron for a while and meet some of the criteria, feel free to volunteer! Not sure when I will finish and send out builds, as I have some other things to focus on in the short term, but I didn't want to put off asking for volunteers any longer.
For everyone else, have a look at some lovely TLS fanart you might have missed! ^-^

nice fan art by the way. The artist miss a point : Cum is also a succubus where are her wings?
2017-10-07 20:08:16 +0000 UTCI am free every day all the time if you need something tested as well Sierra.

2017-10-04 04:00:42 +0000 UTCNo problem, seems logical to me - the game should be ready for you in a more polished state later!

Sierra Lee
2017-10-03 21:38:17 +0000 UTCWell, you know I'm always up to bugtest for you Sierra, but I'm moving next week. Not the optimal time for me to be testing anything really, unfortunately. So rather than offer and not produce anything, I'm gonna bow this one out. Next time though! Or hell, maybe I'll sniff out some bugs after the initial testing is done.

2017-10-03 09:26:28 +0000 UTCI am not sure if you still need people for testing and i likely won't be able to spare more than a couple hours a day (save for weekends). If you're fine with that, then i am available.

2017-10-03 08:59:21 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering! The converter you mention has its uses, but using it here will kill all the custom scripts and render the game unplayable.

2017-10-03 03:02:31 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-03 03:01:50 +0000 UTCSign me up boss. Unfortunately I only have Ace at the moment. I am willing to mess around with it and maybe see if the VX to Ace converter does anything of value.
2017-10-02 21:20:04 +0000 UTCIt costs money.
Decanter
2017-10-02 20:36:28 +0000 UTCAh, so it is. Fixed, thanks!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 19:18:25 +0000 UTCI would be interested in bugtesting unfortunately I don't have rpg maker software to do the fixes myself, I do have free time for these next couple of weeks so I can do a through testing. Interesting fanart there.
Bladestorm
2017-10-02 16:40:37 +0000 UTCIs there a DL link for VX anywhere? Because i’d like to help at this but not sure due to certain uni/work days and this lack of VX i have atm
FigelNarage
2017-10-02 16:13:44 +0000 UTCchecking the 0.29.5 i found a 'very very very minor bug' in the starting script of the conference chamber a +1 is added to temp1 if '[1998: Succubu I] is on' this should be the '[1999: Succubi II] is on' .
Fulminato
2017-10-02 15:29:20 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering! Haven't finished the build or made any decisions yet.
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 14:10:27 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 14:10:16 +0000 UTCOnly have the RTP's to play, but I'd be interested in helping if it's still needed.
genericname12345
2017-10-02 08:45:29 +0000 UTCI'd be interested - I only have the client version/RTP of RPG Maker, but I can obviously play anything from any version since the RTP's are all free. I have some time off coming up in October so this would be a good way to pretend to be productive. :p
Bill B
2017-10-02 01:34:06 +0000 UTCIt's not required, just potentially helpful. Thanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 00:19:42 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering! VX is basically Ace without several features.
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 00:19:24 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 00:18:46 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 00:18:37 +0000 UTCIt's not a dealbreaker, it's just that with the program people could fix problems for themselves instead of waiting on me. Thanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 00:16:51 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-02 00:15:51 +0000 UTCI'll help test if you still need more help but I only have RPG Maker VX Ace if that's a problem.
2017-10-01 23:30:21 +0000 UTCI'm willing to test this, and I also have RPG Maker VX, though I've only ever actually worked in ACE. I bought VX mostly to avoid any asset license issues, but I'm sure I can figure it out as would be needed.
Lord Forte
2017-10-01 22:40:27 +0000 UTCI just opened the Desecration of Wings post in a new tab but I'm glad I didn't read it before hearing that you're looking for some fresh testers. I'd love the chance to provide my feedback I do also have RPG Maker VX, forgot to mention that
FinetalPies
2017-10-01 21:58:27 +0000 UTCThe rewards state $10 backers get access to the games and unreleased stuff, if that's what you're asking
2017-10-01 21:56:34 +0000 UTCI enjoy bug testing--I'll test for you if you'll have me! Either way, DoW sounds really, really cool.
Jax
2017-10-01 21:48:54 +0000 UTCout of curiousity, will long term backers still get this game? and what is the preview for once every after?
Edward Culham
2017-10-01 21:48:32 +0000 UTCOh thank god. I've been looking for something to do in the last few weeks, and I am totally looking forward to the next chapters of TLS. That said, I don't have RPG Maker... I think I have the RTPs for it though and I have VX at one point, though not sure what happened to it. Anyway, point is. If not having VX or RPG Maker won't be a problem, I can test DoW out for you, see what I can break.

2017-10-01 21:45:51 +0000 UTCIt's not like I sleep anyways, I'd love to help test and provide feedback.
2017-10-01 21:44:16 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-01 21:32:33 +0000 UTCThanks for volunteering!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-01 21:31:52 +0000 UTCWhatever else happens, I think I can promise everyone will be able to play the text-only versions soon!
Sierra Lee
2017-10-01 21:31:14 +0000 UTCYeah! I really like seeing multiple characters interacting with each other. ^-^
Sierra Lee
2017-10-01 21:30:38 +0000 UTCI mean the next week or two, sorry. I'm sure we'll need more bugtesting on the next version, though! MV won't be able to open this one, but that's fine. If I've done my own testing well enough, you'll never need to open it. And yes, I mean placeholders I've done myself. Works of Paint.net beauty.
Sierra Lee
2017-10-01 21:30:13 +0000 UTChey you got a tester here if you want I only work on Friday Saturday and Sunday you'd have me the rest of the week to test for ya
2017-10-01 21:24:15 +0000 UTCI'd like to help test if possible, same as with Ouroboros I'd enjoy being able to help iron out quirks and just seeing what CAN go wrong when obsessively bumping every wall ;)

2017-10-01 21:12:36 +0000 UTCThanks for the update, the art looks amazing and I cant wait to try out your new game, its sure to be another hit with me :3

2017-10-01 20:47:45 +0000 UTCLove the Fan art, Whoever made it did a REALLY good job.
AJ_Dragon
2017-10-01 20:43:06 +0000 UTCDefine "coming weeks" please. I'm busy over the next couple, but free otherwise. I also only have RPG MV, not sure how useful that will be for you. By programmer art, do you mean placeholders you've done yourself? You could probably charge for a sneak peek like that : P
