Road To Punching Yourself In The Face
The Litany Of Previous Failures
Release Attempt 1) I forgot to check the box on Page 2 of Event 001 on Map 001 that required Switch 75: You Beat The Game to be on before running the endgame credits. I'm going to call this one entirely my fault.
Release Attempt 2) When you 'Edit' a Download on RMN, removing an old download and uploading a new one, the download link inexplicably still leads to the old file. I'm going to blame this one on RMN.
Release Attempt 3) I accidentally left a layered .pdn file of the parallax background for the second map in the parallaxes folder. While not an issue throughout the entire playtesting of the game or when playing an unencrypted executable, after encrypting the archive, the RGSS3 game.exe interpreter threw up a crash bug upon entering that map as it choked on a Paint Dot Net file and died. I'm going to call this one
mostly my fault, but also place part of the blame on Enterbrain's stupid fucking software (specifically, the compression/encryption process: if you're encrypting a filetype that's not supposed to be there, the process should alert you when it's encrypting the hinky file; that would be better design, IMO).
Anyway, I'm sorry. For the failed launch attempts themselves but mainly for my loss of composure after the second one. I was...very very not sober and it was 3AM when I found out about that one. Sorry.
Silver Lining: I fixed the ten pixels or whatever of the title card that were getting cut off on the right hand side.
