i just finished this build and i can totally say, this is absolutley the best one, its not just fun but also REALLY well polished, i didn't even know you could do THAT on renpy, its insane but also refreshing to be out of the usual "VN style" the dice thing makes it really feel like a game, and dont get me started with the cast, everyone feels unique
also i love august.
(one thing: it lags a bit and i can't imagine running this on a low end phone, but for me it's understandable, as it is really content heavy, kudos to the team, i dont know how you managed to do all this)
All my friends and me loved this as I shared my screen in discord. We all made punches at each other for loving each and every character. I can't wait for more of this as it looks amazing, is incredibly funny, and is a great break from life when you need one!
Went into this last night expecting nothing cause I knew nothing about this project. Assumed wrongly that this is your standard FVN made for hornies.
Ended up having a stupid amount of fun. Finished it in one sitting and I laughed often and facepalmed while I chuckled even more. It's like a cartoon you used to like as a teen, but now as an adult you love it cause you finally understand the jokes.
The cast is so loveable, the story I am not buying at the moment but who cares cause I definitely want to see more.
The game is very poorly optimized on Android versions and will randomly crash during fights after playing at ~15 fps the entire time, making it a bit diffifcult to play, but otherwise was very, very good! There were also issues regarding save files after crashing, where your name would reset to the default and change your class randomly- I am not sure if this problem extends to any other version of the game other than Android. Other than these issues, the story elements are very well done, the new artwork for the backgrounds is good, the characters have a lot of personality, and overall was a positive experience! If the Android version were better optimized, I'd easily say it's one of the top #5 VNs I'e ever played.
I've only played for about 10 or 15 minutes as of writing this, and I. Am. GUSHING!! This game has so much charm-I can't wait to see it blow up. I've only run into like one bug so far, and some performance issues, but only because my device is ever so slightly outdated. Now-as for that bug, it's not even game-breaking. I input my name as Rook, and during gameplau I took some screenshots to show some friends, and when I had returned, my name had been changed to Robyn, which I assume is a default name of sorts. Like I said, not game-breaking, but it does kinds break the immersion. Still gonna enjoy the hell outta this game, and wait for updates as patiently as possible!
We can't seem to replicate the visual glitch, have you tried restarting the game? Did you do anything special to get to that point like the fast-forwarding?
It's possible that your Android version doesn't support the lighting effects we use throughout the game. We couldn't find any other information that might help as we couldn't replicate the bug ourselves
Impeccable dialogue and hilarious antics blend with an emotional core and some amazing character designs to create one of the most exciting demos of recent memory.
We discussed our opinions on this game in detail in our podcast. Check it out if ya want
This game is very cute! The art style is incredible, the voice acting is just as great, the story is phenomenal, and, for it being just a demo, I'd DEFINATELY enjoy every moment of a full game. Just in case, spoilers for the rest of the comment. Don't look until you played, since this is an amazing game!:
First heading into the game, Atlas was my immediate interest, because, well, moth boye. But the story and progression actually made me lean more into Madhouse Mike because of his lovable, nearly Beetlejuice-like voice and honestly hilarious personality. The boss fight with him was expertly made, and quite unexpected in a dating sim of all things! The "roll for effectivity" was also a neat mechanic, and again, unexpected in a dating sim! I'm relieved Mike didn't actually die, and the hugging scene melted my heart. I'm currently replaying it again just to find LITERALLY EVERYTHING LMAO.
A few minor issues/suggestions I'd make: That while selecting the He/Him pronouns, me trying to get into the game as a male character, the voice and character seemed a bit.. feminine for my liking? Of course, I'm not saying men can't be feminine! I would just like a little character selection, or if not (which I completely understand if not, that's a lot of work lmao), different sounding voice lines. They sort of threw me off and left me withdrawn from the experience. Again, the rolling of the dice mechanic Though I wish it was elaborated a little on how it worked since I was a tad confused at first. That's about it! Overall, an incredible experience and beautifully made game!
havent played it yet but im about to download it. looks super cool!!
So I've been playing it a little bit. I love it so far Atlas is definetly my favorite. personally (this is jsut me) i was confused by seeing the mc because I didn't realize that was supposed to be my character- NOT COMPLAINING about how they look I just would have expected a more...generic looking charater. idk if thats the right word. but still really cool, will definetly keep playing
The full game will probably not be free, but depending on Patron support and donations, we would like to keep it at the very least low cost, or ideally free if the support is there!
Searched about this problem and discovered its caused by the way the files are compiled and make it uncompatible with old android devices, so you can check a way to solve the bug here:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32327268/cannot-load-library-soinfo-relocate.. or just let a warning that it may be incompatiblewith old Android versions
i am genuinely so excited for the full game to come out!! the fact that the narrator broke the fourth wall when i quit the game and then came back right at the start was so exciting for me. the art and the voice acting were my favorite parts for sure. i also think that the sprites moving was really cool!
This is so awesome! I love the art and battling scene, but I felt like the battle was a bit long and repetitive. I think adding some more dialogue options would help, but it's just my opinion (and maybe just my run through)! The demo is very promising, and I can't wait to see the full version! Can't wait!
I've only known Atlas for a day, but if anything were to happen to him I'd kill everyone in this room and then myself /lh (seriously tho, I love him so much)
I'm curious, are there any plans to add NSFW content to the game or will the game be revolving around connecting with a chosen character? I don't mind either way, I'm just curious to know.
I beat Mike first time due to immense luck. I guess the best way to beat him is by using one turn to heal up if needed and the second turn to attack, obviously keeping your friend's health high is a high priority.

Is the game completed?
Cryptid Crush is still in development! This just includes the first chapter of content
I just played the demo on my phone and was blown away, can't imagine how much cooler this is going to get!!!
So.. if undertale was reliant on luck. Fun, I'm scared of Atlas.
That makes one of us

This game was phenomenal to play, it was a great experience! I am looking forward to the next build!

In Android, the background and sprites did'nt appear. Can you guys fix this?
We can't seem to replicate the visual glitch, have you tried restarting the game? Did you do anything special to get to that point like the fast-forwarding?
I unistalled and install it again like 3 times. And, no. I'm on Android 5.1.1 (Lollipop)

Will Do!
i am absolutely in love with atlas currently
i am genuinely so excited for the full game to come out!! the fact that the narrator broke the fourth wall when i quit the game and then came back right at the start was so exciting for me. the art and the voice acting were my favorite parts for sure. i also think that the sprites moving was really cool!

I think adding some more dialogue options would help, but it's just my opinion (and maybe just my run through)! The demo is very promising, and I can't wait to see the full version! Can't wait!
I can smell tons of fan arts when this game is finished ;)
they are too human-like and “cutesy” looking for me; but I sincerely hope the more vanilla monster lovers like this game :)) it’s very well made!!!
So amazing! I love the art and pretty much everything about this demo is so promising! I look forward to seeing the end results :D
I normally turn off voice acting but it's actually amazing in this! Love the art, the animations are great, can't wait for the full game
Mike reminds me of the conductor from A Hat in Time O_O love me some misunderstood green ghostman
I've only known Atlas for a day, but if anything were to happen to him I'd kill everyone in this room and then myself /lh (seriously tho, I love him so much)
I'm curious, are there any plans to add NSFW content to the game or will the game be revolving around connecting with a chosen character? I don't mind either way, I'm just curious to know.
There won't be any NSFW content! Just connecting as friends or romantically with the Dateable cast
Good this game is too pure to add that
I beat Mike first time due to immense luck. I guess the best way to beat him is by using one turn to heal up if needed and the second turn to attack, obviously keeping your friend's health high is a high priority.
Can I kiss mike and mothman...?
Heeey! Is mike's fight endless or can you actually beat it?
And I do really enjoy it so far
the madhouse fight is beatable, yes!
I love this demo, Atlas and Mike are baby! can't wait for the full game. remember to take your time on this tho, there's no rush!
Will there be a way to be Mike's host or co-host later on?:O
Who knows? You'll have to wait and see
Something worth waiting for! ❤
Is there any way to see the green uh human character in the game? I scouted through the demo a bit, but didn't find anything.
