HOME (OFF fangame)

I'd be curious to hear OFF's original creator's opinion of this game. Do you know if he's aware of this game or has any thoughts on it so far?
Mortis Ghost can easily be found on Tumblr.

I talk to him all the time, he's a really cool and relaxed dude.
He himself has said he doesn't care for fangames, but at the same time is honored someone would want to create something in its likeness. A mixed feeling I guess. He doesn't hate them or mind them, but he wouldn't play any fangame on his own. If you don't want to take my word for it, feel free to ask him yourself. He's not uptight or haughty, and rather enjoys talking to people.

After HOME is finished me and LightingWolf (lead composer) will be putting together an OST upload that will include remixes, and songs that didn't make it in the game. Along with that, a text document that will be like that soundtrack list.
Ok, makes sense you would do it when it's done. Just might I ask if it will include all the songs in the files along with the extra ones or include just some of them like the original OFF did?

All of them will be in the OST download. Only songs used in HOME itself will be in the HOME game download itself.

Just played through the current build, loved it. This is the only OFF fangame I've played that I thought really felt like the original OFF. Music probably was my favorite part. Would it be possible to make a list like there is here to tell which music is played where?

Hey there, hate to be a nag (I'm aware I've been posting here... a lot... but I have a question about one of the puzzles...
the Zone 4 color puzzle... I I have the 6 computers w 6 different colors... each zone in The Nothingness has a different color, as does the actual zone (the terrain). I'm visiting the computers in the order I visited the zones (except 4... because there is no red computer.. I guess) for both the terrain and on the travel map...is that right? nothing is happening, and I read the books. And if it is for the terrain, the terrain changes colours...Zone 2 is blue on the map, pink outside, and blue in the library... I've tried different patterns and none seem to work.

I did not have the zodiac orbs in my weapons slot, thankfully. I had the month special items, though.
Anyways, I downloaded the new one, and it starts off (as in it starts the video, no home screen or New Game/Load Game options) with a skewed scene of Japhet lecturing the Elsens (it's panned to the top right of the map), with The Judge appearing behind the cluster of Elsens, then The Judge's dialogue of needing to help The Batter. When the circle of spectres appear, The Judge is immediately outside of it and can enter battle with the spectres. I go into Battle Time with The Batter, The Judge, and Alpha. It's an auto battle (I selected engage over auto) that I have no control over and the Judge is immediately killed, as he has only 143 HP (my save has him at ~500-600). Thus, I have no clue whether I can control The Judge here or not. Anyways, they all get killed off pretty quickly and the entire thing repeats itself. This happens with or without the save files, the game does not appear to be utilizing them anyways. I even redownloaded it, alas... the same.
Edit: After a number of tries, I was able to control a single move by The Judge.
off...home... sadly, i am easily amused...
HahHAHA. God damn it, this is why I'm not supposed to try and fix my game at night without any sleep. I forgot to replace the starting position to the splash screen location. Let me fix that. I'm really not the most organized person, and things have been pretty stressful IRL so I'm scattered on time to fix things so I kind of rushed things lately with what spare time I had. When things in this household were relaxed the releases were much more stable. I really am terribly sorry. I promise I'm normally not this clumsy with my releases. I really should take a step back and relax and take things slower. My mental health isn't the best right now and I should probably take a break from the project for about a week, after I get a stable release out.
Do whatever you feel that you need. Anyways, this is a bit of a freak bug, but
after The Batter tosses you over the barricade in the library, I interacted with the button on the bookshelf, took a few steps, and entered a battle which promptly crashed due to a nonexistent battle animation. Interestingly, I tried again and I entered a battle before interacting with the bookshelf, and it was fine. After that, I entered the next area, entered a random battle, and encountered the same notification. There seems to be some correlation between the bookshelf and the random battles. I checked The Batters equipment when he is part of the party, and he only has a January equipped. Perhaps this has something to do with the Book I purchased from the Elsen merchant?

As of now, the bug is patched. :3

The Batter should have more than a January equipped. That's the bug that's crashing the game. Ugh, I forgot that version of the batter would ALSO be effected. Well, let me failsafe his equipment also. Save data can do weird things and can cause risky bugs such as this one. Though, having a few bugs here and there is better than making people start over, because I can fix these bugs with different failsafe methods.

The version I was playing says that it is Beta 0.8.0, I downloaded it on 05/31.

RMN double posted what I said above... sorry, I don't know how to delete this one
That's fine. Did you play any previous versions of HOME? Did you play version 0.5.0 and are just now updating? Versions 0.5.0 had a bug that crashed the game whenever you ran into an encounter if you loaded a save into 0.6.0. This was due to me changing the "item map" of the game, and items got mixed and tossed around, causing errors all over. It was for the better in terms of inventory and shop management. I just tested the battle and didn't get a single "battle animation doesn't exist." Before you battle, check and make sure any of the cats have "orbs" equipped. Any form of orb or any item that isn't claw/fang. That can happen from transferring saves. I'll try and make a fix that purely fixes the batters equipment though, if his equipment is causing the bug.

The version I was playing says that it is Beta 0.8.0, I downloaded it on 05/31, I just transferred my save file over... I did equip some of the astrological orbs, as well as every highest-level-available equipment item. I'll try it again though and report back.
Anyways, I tried again and it said "Event script referenced a battle animation that does not exist"

If you have an ORB in your weapon slot, its going to crash the game. Make sure you DON'T have an orb there. I think I know what's going on though, and I'm uploading a fix right now. Honestly there was no way for me to know that this would break save files if they had a specific starting point. Try downloading it again it again. I just made the game force change the batters equipment as I think when I made some changes to the item map they messed with the batters stats even though he wasn't "in" the party. I'm guessing characters starting equipment is "locked in" when you start a game, and the batter probably had invalid items in his weapon slot due to me forgetting that items are locked in on start, and not when a character is actually added to the party. Because, if I run a fresh new save and testplay that point, it doesn't crash for me. Anyways, the update just finished uploading and I hope this works.
