I was wondering, is there an end goal? I keep going into the platforming area to hunt down for another area, but I am starting to have doubts that there is anything that I am trying to get to. Still a great game, and I do really enjoy it. You've done some great work.
ALSO, was wondering, do you plan to update this game anymore? It's been a bit, and I do respect that it takes time but I was just curious.
Anyways, hope you have a fantastic day! Just had a few questions xD
Sorry, no there was a heavily WIP hive section with a Chrysalis boss fight as well as a Nursery area but they never got anywhere near completions. I stepped away from the project since. it would be nice to revisit some of the work someday but its just not possible now.
I just found this after finding a post regarding derpibooru recently and I wanted to ask on other thank talking to discord is there another way to switch character.
Random Gripes i have with the game (mind you this is only my opinion and are mostly negative remarks on the game, not a review, so take it with a grain of salt. I actually like the game both from the hub interaction, and its concept is very well done.)
Platforming (Heavy grain of salt): Certain platforms and jumps are weirdly somewhat difficult to pull (mostly in the forest) with windows that dont leave a lot of room for error causing multiple deaths and even if they improve in the game platforming its not always consistent on that jump with the window. The character hitboxes are also a bit weird to find out with certain things killing the enemies, others not, and sometimes falling when the edge is already near the player. There should also be some gems or arrows that guide the player cause i had to die in multiple attempts to find the path that was needed to continue to a certain level.
Character: Trixie ability makes her the easiest but her dash is weird to get used to since it only goes backward and the player has little control of it even if it might help them reach a farther away platform. Flutterbat ability to double jump I think is quite janky since it's hard for me to consistently pull off the move, often it happens when I just mash space or hold it prolonged period of time. (haven't tried applejack, if I do so I can edit it here).
Enemy: I can understand placing enemies at certain spots or blindspots as jokes or for the difficulty to surprise the player is good to keep them at their toes along but still certain spot is just an area to lose health with enemies taking free pot shots in that certain area making it even unnecessarily more difficult than needed to progress further into the game. The health to enemy ratio seems to be just low with players needing to do round trips to certain spots just to get the health that sometimes is in unnecessary places for some of them.
Graphic (personal): Running this game wasn't that bad for my computer but it has a low fps on my end and I would like to ask if the graphic on the sprite or the background can be lowered in future updates if not that's fine.
Explanation: It would be more appreciated if there was an explanation regarding what certain items or things do at certain points of the game as I just pick em up and do not know what they do or if there are any differences between what each item does.
Overall these are what I think this is all my gripes I have with the game. I have never done game design or anything related to it only me being a critic regarding the game. Don't misinterpret that I hate the game just that I think certain parts of it are unnecessarily difficult and certain parts seem confusing without any explanation in game
Sorry for the late reply. Been tied up with a lot of things as of late. I do agree on just about all your critique but the dirty truth is an awful lot of compromises and rush tasks have to be made to get an indie game out the doors.
While playing a cutscene I couldn't get out of it and had to restart, then when I tried to change the game from full-screen to window, I double clicked and set it back to full-screen, effectively freezing my computer and so i had to Shut Down and Reboot.
It's the first big monster, a werewolf(?). I was running the game on Windows 10.
Also it's entirely possible your game may have messed with my Computer Monitor's settings? After the crash, I've noticed that my monitor, when it goes into sleep mode, doesn't fully shut off. To further elaborate, the power light when the monitor is "Awake" is green. and it turns orange when in sleep mode. However, when my monitor goes into sleep mode it goes black but the screen is still lit up, that is to say it shows a black screen to say it's gone into sleep mode when it hasn't, as the power light is still green. It's very bizarre, and I want to know whether or not your game may have done something damaging to my computer.
I would check your GPU driver. I have never had that problem with either the male or female diamond dog but will keep an eye on it. The game just uses the standard Unity urp rendering engine.
i got the bundle and was wondering where do i download the game as when i went to check the files it was only 2014 and 2019 art pack and i couldnt find it super sorry to bother if busy
*Edit* Changed the project to be paid what you want and made theoptional support content $5 or more. Let me know if you have any access issues.
There was some confusion on how to download the halloween scp 2021 release. Please check under demo sinces its a free release to everyone. Silly itch.io thing.
unfortunate really, I just bought the art pact. I pressed too soon and paid 5 bucks for the old art pack that I already got from a previous purchase.
Edit: I bought the bundle and the game that says it has 8 files only gave me the two art packs from 2014 and 2019. I am seriously confused and I have nothing. Please reply with some sort of answer here.
apparently I’m playing on outdated versioned the game so this just make ramble is invalid.
i been loyar fan for many year, and been come back, but i don't anymore i feel like game been on loop for too long and need ether restructure or heavy redone. at this point i easy speed run the game and straight break the game due the same layout in platforming.
use flutterbat jump+glide+dash= constant glide mode = basic skip part like the gap between tree top to get the butt stomp powerup.
play the game without the game crash handle slow sown the engine allow basic jump into Wat should KO or game over, or straight avoid taking damage.
ik you pay for everything but i think time open a patron and discord allow more feedback and more easy support and better wise know if you need help or more time on the project. i wont mind if had to skip a hoilday just so put every in work order.
plus with way to chat with support the more i bet we put fund into this game. please dont mad at this all i try is not see this game series died on re-use rss from other years.
Hello, the platform stages aren't a focus this update as I have clearly said multiple times. Those come later. Flutterbat is as is intended to make the stages overly easy to naviage and is considered an extra cheat character atm. My old laptop runs the game fine with no slowdown. What kinda machine are you using?

Sounds good, bud. Take as much time as you need. Thank you for all that you do and have done so far ^_^
I purchase the game 2 years ago 2 times and the escape pack too, but i cant find the updates where i can find the updates?
Last update was 2021 Halloween. I don't currently have the resources for another big update.
wait what did i exactly get for buying the thing?
You get access to all future updates (Not all are free) and the general artpack.
oh! :D

Do you recall what cutscene and can you tell me what operating system you are running the game on?
It's the first big monster, a werewolf(?). I was running the game on Windows 10.

Under demo fam. Its titled scp 2021
thank you super sorry
No problem at all. Thats on me since I usually do a paid and free on release night. The paid comes later this year.
No one has to pay again to get access if they picked it up years ago.

Sure I can work with you to get that resolved for you make sure you have access to everything. Can you send me a dm?
ya it's not allowing me to dm you brother. Or i'm just daft.
Have you checked under demo for the free game? Tracked down your receipt and it appears you have access to the entire game page.
ye i got it. Just bloody weird that I bought an art pack twice. but it's only 15 cad. it's fine...
You sure? I don't mind refunding you or taking an art request. It's nothing.

Cleared all old comments regarding the old versions of the game. Feel free to post bug reports or gripes here.
