itch.io

Quite poggers if i do say so myself

Just FYI: Steam blocks access to Adult-Only Content from certain countries, notably germany (and the UK soon, probably). Having an additional storefront with the game could alleviate the problem.

As the Title says, as of v0.7.03a (pa07_0011), the "hurt" SFX seems unaffected by all Volume Sliders, including Master. The save i am playing on was imported from v.0.7.0b.

You are partially correct, feature creep can definitely ruin a project. However, fact is much of VotV is placeholder content or otherwise subject to change, so expending too much effort on that is likewise a waste. Gradually expanding the scope of a project while ensuring the bugs never get TOO bad is something most developers have a problem with, and this project in particular has been very forward with QA and bugfixing. 

And besides, a Roadmap is an option, not mandatory. This is neither a paid project nor a project made under employment, it is clearly someone's passion. Sharing in it is nice, but it doesn't entitle anyone to the labor of the developer. They could pull the plug tomorrow, delete the game off the internet, and no-one would or, could, punish them for it.

OP posts nothing but bait and bitching. Might be a good time to drop the hammer.

Check the stickies.

You are playing a Work in Progress, not a full product. It is always used, delivered, and updated under the stipulation that things may break. It is entirely free, and you do not enter into a licensing contract. The dev also listens to feedback. You are not entitled to a functioning game at this point, both legally and morally.

Well, there's some experimental settings that are gonna have a larger performance impact than usual. Consider, this game's still in development, it's not like a finished product where all the graphics options are convenient.

Try turning down lighting first, but before that, open up task manager, and see which part reaches 100% usage while playing

That's gonna hinge mostly on the hardware compatability.

Strange. Is only VotV a problem? Or is it only Itch.io?

Sounds like a permissions issue. Try installing/unpacking VotV in your User directory, and running as administrator.

What settings are you using? Everything to max?

Recently had a user who got a D3DD11 error, there might be a workaround you could figure out by tweaking the various settings files, though. If you want it to run natively, you're gonna need DX11.

Speaking of stacking, a possible workaround (and general upgrade), specifically for food would be to create object variants for food at different "bite remaining" levels. A good start would be same model, lower weight, to make opened containers distinguishable from unopened ones. I'm not sure how your game handles items, but a variant variable (from which weight and mesh/model are derived) would be perfect for this.

Let me know your thoughts, i'd love to contribute.

IF you have downloaded the version on itch.io and nothing else, there should be no harm. Some Antivirus programs come in "grandma mode", which will warn whenever the user encounters anything that could potentially be dangerous- so about 90% of common file types. 

HOWEVER there is a VERY slim possibility that some form of Malware which is already on your PC is attempting to "piggyback" on the 7zip unpacker or the VotV app in order to gain elevated permissions. But unless you've been clicking on every porn ad and toolbar download link out there, this is highly unlikely.

It most likely will not. Not only do most phones not meet hardware requirements, the entire gameplay loop and user interface would have to be redesigned. Please consider such problems before asking for ports.

Allow me to explain why this is difficult. Mac uses many systems which are arbitrarily different from the industry standard. This makes it an absolute nightmare for Indies to support MacOS, because every version could potentially include a technicality that could brick the whole version.

So, i'd ask again once development is done.

I read something about using the PC

Yep. Hardware too old. D3DD11 means you need a Graphics card that's compatible with DirectX 11 or later.

My bad, i genuinely didn't know.

It is a pretty safe bet. However, being disrespectful isn't going to solve anything.

There is no "App" to play itch.io games. All itch.io games are delivered as seperate, independent programs.

On the off chance this isn't a meme:

Voices of the Void is delivered in a Data Format which you cannot run on it's own. Imagine a piece of IKEA furniture. You cannot use it while it is still in the box, it needs to be taken out and put together. This format is known as "Archive", all "Archive" files end in the letters .zip, .7zip or .rar (or similar).

To install Voices of the Void, you need to use a program like WinRar to "unpack" this Archive. If you download VotV, it will show up in your "Downloads" folder. To correctly install VotV, you need to first move the file to a place where you can find it, and where your system will allow it. This could be your "Desktop" folder. So, right-click "VotV.7zip", select "Cut" (or the euqivalent in your language), then move your view to the Desktop, right click an empty space, and click "Paste" (or whatever that is in Spanish? is that your language?).

So, now you should have VotV.7zip in a place where you can safely unpack it. I'm not familiar with WinRar (i use 7zip), but the process should be super simple, again, you right-click VotV.7zip and there should be an option like "unpack". Select that option, and if there is an option to "output to new folder" or "create folder", you'll want to select that.

Once this process is finished, you should be able to run VotV like any other .exe file, by finding said .exe file in whatever folder the unpacking created.

If you cannot figure this out yet, don't worry. I assume you are quite young. I can only recommend that you should be more careful when browsing the internet, as some technical knowledge is needed to remain safe on sites like itch.io, which can host malicious files or encourage unsafe computer use.

Unlikely. Refactoring a game for Apple's architecture is a huge jump and takes an immense amount of effort. You're better off emulating windows using a virtual machine to play games on OSX.

Having recently started my own journey in gamedev, holy based for going back and reworking the texture loading. Too many games fail because devs don't want to deal with backend stuff.

Honestly? Probably the Spectrum.

I get OP is being a snooty dickhead, but pointing out typos is completely normal. By getting so heated about it you just end up giving off the impression that you're personally very insecure about your spelling skills.

Does your phone meet minimum System requirements?

You might have a UAC Problem

Google "What is a Zip file"

No. Apple does not allow Third-Party Apps.

Hey, this is probably not something you want to hear, but i can imagine that the problems people encounter when trying to play the Android Version are not actually related to the size of the files, but rather the way the Filesystem works, or something related to CPU instructions. Hell, maybe the additional Compression is adding to the instability by putting Computational load onto the CPU. Most of these prpblems seem to originate from the Minigames, which i think would be a good starting point for investigating what exactly goes wrong.

Tl;dr, if you want a work-around, add an Option to Skip Minigame Sequences to the Android Version.

100% chance you ain't old enough to play this game

He's doing his part! Are you doing your part?

L + Waste of Effort + Didn't Read + ASD Diagnosis

I just wanna shout out the insane update frequency. Keep up the good work, people! 👍

literally who do you expect to care, your stupid ranting is literally a waste of space, just stop doing it, it's not productive

Did the freeze happen after finishing a minigame?

Homosexual interactions are marked. You're still gonna have to look at man-ass in minigames but that's it

Interesting Report, however, i did not ask because i already know. I had hoped that my addition of (Chinese shitbucket) would deter the ranting (it did not). I know my phone is an underpowered piece of kernel-level spyware and i do. not. give. a. fuck.

This issues been reported up and down the performance bracket of android phones, which is why i gave my report as well. So that Morairon knows this isn't specific to Phones of this make and that but a more universal problem.
