-The Lost: Free Demo-




-Story: Embrace The Glowing Fire-

In a desert occupied by several tribes, a mysterious army appears from the south and annihilates anyone in their path. The Briƫn tribe has been destroyed and all hope seems lost. All the other tribes are summoned to the Dokta tribes village to stop this mysterious army. Kaan the chieftain of the Dokta tribe, and their village champion Ragno try to come up with a plan to do this. A fierce conversation between the two could be heard from the outside moments before Ragno storms out of Kaan's stronghold and leaves.

Kaan, firmly believing that the 'Glowing Fire' will help them to achieve victory, rallies the troops loyal to him and leads them into battle. Ragno, on the other hand, leaves the Dokta region and goes north followed by almost all of the other tribes. Only the Nomad tribe that once got saved by Kaan are still loyal to him and stay to fight off this mysterious army. But why, why did Ragno leave and why did the other tribes follow him? Is everything lost, or is there still hope...

New Update

After not having played for a while, I thought let's play The Lost. And the immersion feel wasn't there so... I redid the whole prologue section to urge my needs of feeling engaged again with my own game.

Update notes;
- Revamped the prologue dialogue where I felt it needed it.

and there are still black screens on the title screen and the sidequest when clicks on a quest to read more and those black squares... what is the cause?
what are the side events of the demo and all their information?

That is sad to hear, but so far you've been the only one that had this with my game. It's probably a combination of how my game runs and the specs of your computer. This isn't something I know how to fix.

In your menu, you have side events that you acquire during your gameplay. If you click on them you get information. That information.

I hope that is no more on the full version.... and is not due to the specs of my Lenovo T400 laptop

but that infor is still in black screen. at least can be a list of the side events of the demo?
Yeah, I'm not saying it is your specs. I think it is the combination of my game and the specs. Something isn't running right and I don't know how to fix that as it runs well on everyone else's computer (so far).

My current focus is on developing the game. Once I finish the game I will have time to help on Q&A but for now, I won't be doing that. Sorry.
Friend:
I've played games with the same engine (RPGmakerMV) as yours, and with the exception of a few, generally the subquest screens aren't blacked out.And with the same specs of my pc
It could be one of the plugins I'm using that shows that black screen. But as you're the only one reporting it. I'm pretty sure it has to do with my game setup and your PC specs. And RPG Maker MV plugins are a bit wonky at times. I'm sorry it happened to you but it is not something I know how to fix or where to look for a fix.

At least try or look for someone who can do it
You're basically saying I need to hire a guy that is specialized in Javascript to get in contact with you, go over all kinds of possible problems, understand how the RPG maker engine reads data, and go over all the plugins and find this problem.

That will cost me a lot of money for something that has only occurred with 1 player for a free game. I'm sorry, but I can really use my money for other things. It's not that I wouldn't want everything to run better for you, it's just that it will cost a ton for something that isn't an issue for the other players so far.

Is not money, but here you can search for people to help you without spending buck.... is for your games
I have asked on developers forums for help. But only the scripters replied that asked for money. And a lot of it as they all said, finding bugs in existing code is more expensive than writing your own code. But writing code that has a 0% chance to bug out because of not being compatible with other plugins is an illusion they said. And making 1 plugin for the 100+ plugins I use would have coster me a couple of thousand dollars. It's crazy and really not realistic.

I am basically asking the scripters to find a needle in a haystack and while they might fix that bug, not screw over any others.

But if you know someone or if you can script, I would really appreciate it if you would try. I do want all the players to have a great experience!

Good point, but at least i hope those problems are solved in the full version of this fantastic game
Thank you for the compliment and I'm very glad you like it!

It wouldn't be the first time that a bug suddenly 'disappears' after I changed something or deleted/added a plugin. If in any case, you end up without the issue you mentioned, let me know so I might figure out what is causing the black boxes you experience.
I hope for the best for the full version

maybe deyaling from last year to this year is a good thing in the long run
It will be delayed to next year shamefully, covid is really pushing the schedule ahead. My work in health care is crazy still. I still need to adapt the release date here and push it further yet another year...

On another note, I've had someone on discord ask me some things and I made a little FaQ for his questions. I wrote out 4 side event quests there (the puzzle events) to help them solve them. You might be interested and people might be able to help you with in-game questions, like what certain quests are about because you have those black boxes. I will also be able to answer your questions now and then on a more chat-like basis. It's faster than this forum-type messaging system. You're choice of course!

good point
this game has passed the other date of completion of 12/31/2022
Yes, real life with 3 kids and a demanding job seems to be pushing on my time. I made 2 career moves and I'll have the next one in 3-4 years when I finish the management degree.

I am not sure anymore when I will be able to finish this. It's a hobby that I seem to have less and less time for.
