Realm Invader Episode 2 Part 2 Public Release


You have to start a new save, sorry. Even if everything looks fine, your save is cursed and it can wreak havoc on your points with the girls and your choices.

So it turns out that not everyone was a fan of the new game mechanic. I think I vastly overestimated how universally accesible it is. So on short notice, I've tried my best to do some things:

I've tried to make the explanation more specific.

I coded up a whole new simplified version of the minigame that requires less gameplay.

And I've also just added an option to reveal the solution. You won't even need the walkthrough for this.

Minigame complexity / solutions can be toggled in the preferences menu.

Speaking of the preferences menu, I've also tried to add a high-performance option for weaker hardware that lags under certain circumstances. High performance mode is automatically enabled on Android.

I've also made a compressed version, the quality of the images/videos is worse, but downloads will be faster and videos are even less likely to lag.

Rectifying this minigame was, as I said, kind of done as an emergency. My intent isn't to make the game unplayable, and I think I was a little narrow-minded in my assumption that the minigame is undoubtedly fun. Now, I don't mean to condescend anyone, but it was an introductory instance of the minigame, and was designed to be incredibly easy to solve. But again, I assumed that everyone's brain kinda works the same. I also received positive feedback, but those who hated it really hated it, hence the emergency fix.

Due to it being made in haste, it's possible there are bugs. Let me know as soon as you find any bugs. I also haven't received any feedback from Mac players, which is understandable due to your low numbers. And I've, surprisingly, only received Android feedback from one player. So again, android players and mac players, hit me up. These adjustments also cut into my plan of overhauling the UI, so apologies for it still being the same boring menus.

I think that's everything. Enjoy.

"There's a vibrator in my purse, use it to go fuck yourself!"

Being a heterosexual male, I can't use that, but it had me laughing like hell. Clement might be dead, but surely that book can answer some questions. Awesome update man! You might be displeased with it, but then a writer is seldom happy with their work. I am speaking from more than a decade of writing stories, so I KNOW whereof I speak.

Invader Gary, please make a separate path for the developer (the one from the game). He's the most positive character :D And in my opinion, the update itself was the best part of the whole game. The mini-game was great, a brilliantly implemented part of Danganronpa. One can guess that since we've collected more clues, there will probably be more mini-games. The best scenes from the game:

- crushing the can with your buttocks and the MC's expression afterwards

- the cure for the holy nap of two students :D

- the MC's facial expressions during humorous scenes, which hadn't been done before

Brother, the Humor was on point once more. Realm Invader has become one of my top games, contesting with Eternum/Ripples and Stray Incubus. ALSO your music choice was nice, my fave this time was Tides from Future Forest Music.

I hoppe that this Project gets completet, it has given me much joy in hard times.

All the best for you and yours InvaderGary.

Where can I find a walkthrough for the game? I wanna do all the right choices

After a year we got peak again! It was a long wait but Ep part 2 was great. I do wish it was a bit longer due to how long we waited but I'm glad it is here! Chole is still wife and im glad we got more of her this update. Hoping next update isn't to long because im craving more!

Fantastic update, hungry for the next one. The humor and dialogue in general is some of the best-written I've seen in this medium

(+1)

Thanks. I'll try not to let you starve like I did for this last update.

Fantastic update. Having to start a new save is a blessing in disguise - letting me re-experience the whole game again with fresh eyes.

I enjoyed the minigame, but my (possibly unwelcome) suggestion for improvement would be to return back to the section you mis-identified rather than looping over again from the start. I used to play lots of Phoenix Wright games and it really gave me that vibe that I missed of connecting contradicting evidence to statements.

I look forward to your next update! As always, your humor and story are top-notch. I appreciate all the wacky jokes and especially The Developer™ showing up to help and watch over the MC.

Regarding the minigame:

I think it's a lose/lose situation. If I implement your suggestion, the player would still need to loop if their mistake occurred after the correct point. As it stands, I think the fast-forward button is the best solution. I may look into making the fast forward a little quicker.

(+1)

Arrows to move back and forth to find the "discrepancy" could also be an option. Maybe display the full conversation chain once, then let the player move forward and back to present the evidence, which triggers the evidence check?

The issue I had with the fast forward is that I kept overshooting cause I'm kinda dumb and slow to turn it off.

Either way, I'm sure I'll be pleased with your solution! Your consideration (and reply!) is greatly appreciated.

Simplified minigames in the preferences menu does exactly that.

Got it! I was just afraid of missing out on the minigames if I used that setting.

You rock!

New chapter, OH YES!💖

Lots of funny jokes in this one! :-)

Still not completely through it, but I have to ask:  Why am I getting a red (negative) flash no matter what I select when deciding weather to pay a bribe to the guard to  go into the green plant covered tower with Chloe?

(-1)

Two checks happen in quick succession: Whether you have the cash to do it at all (red flash #1 if not), and whether you decide to go into the tower or not if you do (red flash #2 after you select yes). At least this seems to be my experience.

The first one makes sense.
But I had the money.


The second one DOESN'T make sense... it flashes red no matter what I chose.

I think it's a bug!

(+1)

Nope. You're missing a trigger for one of the girls. (Grace, in this instance.)

You don't have enough points with her to get a little bonus interaction at that moment.

I don't want to make consequences for point checks overly harsh because some choices can be a little esoteric, so you're not missing anything critical, and you're certainly not necessarily on your way to losing Grace's route.

But you've got some room to get more points with her.

(+1)

Alright thanks for the info!

I'm surprised I didn't get max with Grace. I did everything to be nice to her that I can remember.

I'm glad at least I'm not losing out on her route!

Thanks for the update !

You're welcome!

What was the difference between normal and zipped again, I mean compressed

Did one had worse quality?

Compressed has lower quality videos and images.

The filesize is smaller so it takes up less space, and it's also faster to download.

Also, if you're using some kind of stone-age computer, it can help with laggy animations.

Honestly, am glad to be starting a new save. Although I vaguely remember humorous parts, the ones I do remember are still as funny as I remember.

The whole "Noelle why" bit kills me still.

Android version is asking for install instead of update

(+1)(-1)

Yup, I already finished playing this it. This was another awesome update fam :D

(+3)

Actual speedrunner

Not really I just wanted to know the story more. That crazy ending you gave us though fam, sheesh!!! 👌👌👌

hmm seems there is something lost in that huge space of the MC. because neither updating the game nor downloading (compressed and pc version) and unzipping it, it just does not start. So I have to kill the game. I do not mind starting the game from the beginning, but the game won’t start. I know I am a dull, but still … hmmm

Need more details, dude. If there's a bug, I need information so I can fix it

Are you running on Linux? Linux is a blind spot for me. If so, can you try running the game with xwayland?

Jo Gary MY MAN, I just downloaded the new compressed version, unzipped it and it works. OUTSTANDING. AWESOME

I'm glad to hear that but the bug I was trying to fix had NOTHING to do with your error lmao.
