Probably the best thing since Sliced Bread.
ps. Congrats Nico~

For those who use Windows XP, sometimes the game isn't compatible and would cause a dumb Error 103 issue. Mostly in the start of battles or while selecting skills. It can range from many things such as:

1.) File Sharing
2.) Scripts (I think this highly depends, but it was one of those)
3.) Folder Permissions

One of the fixes that DID work is this:

-open up windows explorer(my computer)
-click on tools at the top
-click folder options
-click VIEW tab
-scroll all the way down and UNTICK "use simple file sharing"

But the error 103 still happens but super rare. Sadly, I don't know how to get around with this since it works flawlessly in Windows Vista/7. So I am guessing it's mostly a program issue :/

Last night, I added cores to the gameplay. What are Cores?

Basically, it can change the elemental strength, null and weakness. They can also change your stats as well and decrease another. It can also work in tandem with your "root" equipment, if I manage to implement it! (It means like a massive stat boost or a passive effect in battle.)

Roots act like passive effects such as, mp regen, hp regen, reflect, counter attack rates, critical rates, and so on and so forth.

These cores are also unbuyable. You have to make them. Through the power of Alchemy~

Now for the other news, we had some major bonding last night. For the sake of their identities, I'm going to codename them.

Bloo, OTL, Vampy, Sadist and Bunny.

And last night, our conversation can be summed up to this:


<Sadist> I want to draw SyrnxRalph pr0n
<Bunny> do it!
<Vampy> do it!
<Bloo> do it!

minutes later...

<OTL> "Ralph looked up into Syrn's eyes, unsure of how to express the feelings in his heart"
<OTL> "Bend over." Syrn said, his eyes betraying nothing"
<OTL> "Ralph didn't have time to scream as the sword entered his back."

Which coincidentally goes hand in hand with this drawing from my erotic folder (based on that dropbox with seekret member x):



There were more things here that are disclosed for the sake of your sanity and mental image for the participants.

A bit later...
<Sadist> yes
<Sadist> oh man
<Sadist> I need to get something to drink
<Sadist> it's hot here
<Bunny> *thing
<Bunny> LMAO
<OTL> gee
<OTL> I WONDER WHY~
<Sadist> YEAH GEE
<Bunny> i think it's the agony that turns you on
<Sadist> I'LL BE BACK
<Sadist> I need cold water

A bit later...

<Sadist> I'm almost done with this syrn and ralph script
<Sadist> do you want me to include the time
<Sadist> they actually bang'd each other?
<Bunny> how many times do they do it
<Bunny> once?
<Sadist> once
<Bunny> s;lkjasd;lfk
<Bunny> I kind of do
<Bunny> want to read it

And then a bit more later...

<Bunny> GAHHH

<Bunny> YOU PROMISE PORN
<Sadist> cliff hangers are the best~

There were more but I thought this is amusing enough~
Girl's night is the best~

*For this copy, you can enter battle, but the Sky Castle Events aren't done yet.
Please be patient! You can however see the "new intro" script and all that stuff.

The Beta ALPHA testing for Princess Princess has begun! I'm happy for everyone's speedy reports and suggested fixes for the game! Most notably, Kyrsty for telling me about the restarting events by teleporting (instead of saving, for some reason I never even thought about it), Liberty and Decky's Dialogue suggestions and finally, YF's suggested cutscene reordering for the intro! I really thank everyone for their time!

I would also like to thank Dudesoft and Newblack for helping me with a very specific thing that I won't reveal just yet! Really guys, just thanks!

Also, thank you to TDS for all the major help (even tho he thinks they're minor >:V) he did for the scripts and my needs that are like, required FAST. I really appreciate it! For those who are curious, here's some minor screenies:






I have been in team projects before and I can't believe why I haven't ever thought about doing this myself. Using Dropbox.



At first, I was reluctant to start a Dropbox private folder sharing thingy because of many reasons. But I got tired of choppy means of updating everyone and my incredibly bad net. This was one of the greatest decision in my life, EVER. And because of reasons below:



It's so fast to transfer files over, beta testing was SMOOTH and everyone can test on the get go (Except save since they crash each other orz) and see if I missed anything. Updating is just super breezy. Everyone can share files so fast and just...it's just fast okay?!

It also serves as a motivation for the team imho because they know that something is happening to the game. This made everything just easier for us. Yes I'm just safsafafasf out of happiness, thank you very much for even reading all of it <3
