[Game] Idolcraft

[perch]

Hello again, thank you for the tips from before. I think I caught a bug properly this time....I hope.

Spoiler

After I feed the man guarding the pots if I talk to him after taking the money out of the pots he'll go back to guarding the pots and give me a message about "selling his inheritance for some soup." At first I thought it was because I didn't get all the money out so I started a new game and did the same thing, gave him food, got all the money out and then talked to him and the same thing happened again. When I started a third game and made sure not to talk to him he disappeared.

I don't know if it's a bug or was intended to teach me not to talk to the guy after stealing his loot. Here's the save file: http://www.mediafire.com/?nddzu4xd0cg

Also every once in a while when I come back to the office to switch out the girls they'll have disappeared. I'll still get the dance instructor and singing instructor dialog of them finishing up and how well they did, but the characters will have disappeared.

Thank you for making such a great and thoroughly addicting game. I think if I had a wish for any new additions to the game it'd be more sav files so that I didn't have to copy over some of my favorites and naming the construction worker guy and the pot guarding guy...or the npc's that are interacted with a lot. But that's purely flavoring for me to add another dimension to the game.

Glad you guys are enjoying it ^^

Thanks a ton for your feedback, perch. The second bug you reported is going to be hard to track down without more information but I'll see what I can do.

If you like I can run the game through a few more tries and stress test out the pots guy. Get save files before and after I feed him and take the money with one of me talking to him (watch the bug won't happen and he'll disappear) and a pair with me not speaking to him.

perch: Oh, the pots guy thing I think I'll be able to sort, but thank you for offering. It's what you said about characters in the studio disappearing that would be difficult to track down.

Woot 3rd try and I got 6 idols 5 people in the top 10 2 people that got ranked 1st and 2nd found out the mystery and I got a A- woot ENDLESS DAYS　MODE at the ending I had 2 people with full stats on everything

 

[theufw]

=) I got A+. I found your cheat bush too. All the idols all are in the top ten and 2 of them are at the top 2. A simple but exceeding fun game. I give it five/five stars for gameplay.

this game reminds me of sgt frog! this is cool

 

[SorcerGamble2]

i prefer killing stuff, but his game looks very original, congrats.

Picked up this old thing. Loved it.

First play-through, got 6 idols, 4 in in top-10, and 10 furnishings.

Still need to unlock the dorm mystery and some other stuff.

BTW, if you time it correctly, you can take your first $100 and turn it into $36,000 on two trips to the Roulette wheel. ^^

Quite addicting; great stuff!

 

[bashful crobat]

It's nice that you like the game enough to say so, but flowerthief hasn't been here since July 09 so I doubt they'll notice.

 

[Kodakami]

That's a shame really. It's quite fun. Thanks for the heads-up though.

 

[flowerthief]

I'm noticing now, for what it's worth
Took me a long time to catch onto the fact that that old website turned into this one.

 

[sanggameboy]

So nice!
I just see Pink and pink! ^^ :heart: :heart:
In Vietnam, we haven't had it ! :barf:

[Kodakami]

Thanks! This is still one of the better RMXP games out there.

I've actually got both this and Heartache 101 in my Dropbox if you ever need a backup. Feel free to plug it if you need to.

I should just stop doing the lazy thing and update the link already. Thanks for reminding me

 

[Eventing_Guy]

I must say I liked the game, but feels like the days were WAY to short.
(When you knew what you were doing)

I also Played HeartAche 101... I couldn't stop Playing. Couldn't really figure out how to make my own game from it.

 

[flowerthief]

A tidbit of hidden history behind the making of Idolcraft: After my brother first playtested and said that it was boring, I decided to knock a full month off the game's calendar. It might be too short, but I figured better too short than too long

Anyway, glad you liked it. As for making new characters/story in Heartache 101, you could always ask for help. Most of the content creators hang out here and are pretty good (better than me) at answering questions.
