Tailor Tales [GxB] [100% free]

Great news, I just finished making the last map needed (excluding some that come in later parts of the game) to get started on some more serious work, so that's a great progress!

Anyways, I was thinking about other mini-games to include, such as fishing. What do you all think?

[Abeiramar]

This sounds like a huuuge project. I'm liking it so far!
Mini-games like fishing sound fun, but don't add too many or the game will never be complete ;^; .

[jakemorrow]

Sweet! This game's looking quite professional. Love it.

[azureXtwilight]

Fishing and digging are good minigames

[Celianna]

Great, since I'm getting mostly positive feedback on the fishing game, that's what I'll be adding

Not right now though, right now I'm working on giving the NPCs a schedule to follow so that they are at different places during different times. Beta 0.9 will be released once I finish up one of the bachelor's schedule.

I'm looking forward to the beta!

OMG I'm a huge harvestmoon stalker FAN. And I definately want to play this game.
Epic idea by the way. The cursed boy who turns into a fox.
I did see an anime once. Kanon. Where there was a girl who turned into a fox. BUT WHO CARES~
I really like it It makes me wonder how he looks as human.......... *curioussss*

I'm happy to announce that beta 0.9 is planned for release on this Saturday ^_^

Please note, a beta does not mean a playable demo, it is used to help me find bugs and test things out, also for general feedback.

And here's two random screenshots when I finished up Bill's schedule:

[ririruetoo]

I'm looking forward to it! I'll be sure to note any bugs/grammer errors that I find! I'll also give you LOTS of feedback!

Did you say... never be finished? o.o;; I hope you don't mean that seriously! Hehe, anyway the game is looking great <3 I'm so glad you joined lemmasoft, this game will certainly get a lot more attention around here. I know this won't be done for awhile right? X3 so it gives me something to look forward to as a stress reliver when I'm in college! (Going pretty soon)

Did you say... never be finished? o.o;; I hope you don't mean that seriously!

Well, I'm just being realistic here. Most projects never get finished, and I'm sure I'm not the exception here, so I'm aiming for a playable demo during Spring instead of the whole game. If I can accomplish that, then I've already done a lot! If I still got the motivation to continue, then I will

Anyways, beta 0.9 is out now, please head over to the blog for download links and instructions. You can post bugs and/or feedback either on the blog itself, or here, it doesn't matter much.

Tailor Tales beta 0.9

A beta does not mean a demo, it's for testing purposes only, and there is absolutely no dialogue in the game at all, aside from menus and stuff. Please read the text file included with the beta to see what you have to test for.

[Aquane]

Ahhh xD I see, so you are playing it safe and not promising anything. Thats a good way to go as well~ One step at a time.

[Elze]

OH. MY. GOSH.
This is just too freaking adorableeee ; A ; <333
But it's not playable on a mac. :C
Looks lovely though, so I wish you guys the best of luck! I love how it looks <3

[xxxSakura]

Downloading the beta now. I'm a sucker for Harvest Moon games and definitely will be stalking this thread! It looks pretty much professional and I wish you luck on it! ^^

[Celianna]

Yeah, sorry, the engine I'm making it with doesn't support Mac. Though I've heard of programs that emulate WIndows on the Mac and you can play it like that.


Anyways, a few people have already found a bunch of bugs, so see if the bug you're about to report isn't already reported:

Known bugs in beta 0.9

- Staying in Bill’s house (3 hearts) when it hits 10:00 or 14:00 makes you unable to move until the next hour kicks in.

- Seeing James walk out of his home (3 hearts) means you are unable to leave the 2nd floor due to an invisible blockage near the stairs.

- Slight lagging of rain/snow/storm when exiting the menu.

- Despite there only being 100 floors at the digsite, you can still fall through cracks which will let you exceed this number.

- NPCs stop moving if you try to interact with them.
