[VX Ace] The Laughing Isles

[alberto2011]

Sorry I was late in telling you, though I'm glad you found it. I'll fill you in on all the details that you might not know. The song is called Breathlessly and is from the very awesome visual novel Katawa Shoujo (would definitely recommend downloading this if you haven't. Free after all). Of course, it's not the exact version since I sped it up in RPG Maker.

Yeah, I know... in fact I used a program to speed up the music :stickout... however thank you anyway, the song is beautiful, like this game 😉

[TickleWiazard]

i don`t come forward after i defeaded the virus can someone help me please!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the current end of the game, we're all just waiting patiently for the next installment

 

[AnimeWatcher1]

i don`t come forward after i defeaded the virus can someone help me please!!!!!!!!!!!

Hahaha 😀 Yes, that is the end of the demo. The first chapter of the game is nearing completion and will be released soon, which will let you get beyond where you fought the virus.

Hope you enjoyed the game so far!

Huzzah! Another exciting episode. Although you're teasing us by saying its "soon," AW. That could be anywhere from days to months, knowing how these things go. But substantively, as to your "I'm writing too much" comment...

Depth of writing is one of the strengths of these games. It's what made for the best scenes in LoL and ToG, and now yours as well. Pondering whether you're giving us too much seems akin to asking "Hmm, maybe I'm eating TOO healthy. Maybe a cheeseburger would be good for me now?" While possible, I think we'll let you know if we're getting too much of a good thing. I for one enjoy long, detailed scenes. You've already established a skip feature. And honestly, no matter how long those scenes are, they still go by pretty fast.

Not that I'm trying to complain "AW, its not even out yet and I'm already yelling NOT ENOUGH!" But if your muse is working, I say go with it. Definitely looking forward to what you're cooking up.

Huzzah! Well, it won't be months now. I expect this to be finished by probably the second week of August at the latest.

We'll see how it turns out. You can skip losing scenes, but you can't skip winning scenes. That's where things can get a little hairy. Is the story too long? Is a pre-determined victory scene too long? Well, we'll see.

Lol. Well my muse works in mysterious ways. Sometimes it's working, other times it's giving me the cold shoulder and I have to bribe it with skittles. But I do hope everyone likes the additional surprises I've got in. Should get appetites wet once more for the continuation.

 

[Lurker]

I think I may have broke the demo. The old guy keeps telling me I need more training. Maybe it was a bad idea to beat him to the exit when he's showing the shortcuts.

Edit: Also, I now seem to have chronic ocean wave noises in my save.

Edit Edit: In Whisper Cave, apparently I missed the boulder to the side and pushed one below upwards into the hole. The boulders seem to be hole-specific. I'd strongly recommend either making them not specific to the hole, or making it so that if the wrong boulder is there, it can be pushed out.

Also, I approached the event with the bottles from the left side and it froze. I assume the NPCs were attempting to move past me and I was blocking their path.

 

[hokuto261]

hmmmmm

I can't unzip the latest version because of error. It says the OS version(Win7 64bit) doesn't match....

Which OS version will match?:cry

I got solution. The cause of error was security soft(norton)...:blush

My god, how on earth did you bug out so much?

Ok, ok, first things first -

Old guy bug. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I actually thought...um...players would follow him. However, I'll get this fixed JUUUUUST in case someone decides to give the old guy the middle finger and bolt. :lol

You have ocean... Goin on, like, in your save game...? Like, do you mean you have the ocean continuously going on after you leave the town? Orrr where are you experiencing this? After you leave the cave? Tell me the part, and I'll look into fixing this too for live.

Sorry, the rocks shall remain hole specific. However, if the player makes a mistake, you can reset the uncompleted parts by walking upstairs and coming back. This is a puzzle. Even in a real puzzle, all pieces have to go into their proper place. You can't just throw a puzzle piece wherever, and once the puzzle is done it'll look just like the guy who spent hours finding, sorting and connecting each piece. Maybe I'll add a warning to Tula's directions.

The oni bottle issue has been fixed in the live version. Sorry about that. Until then, please use the right side.

If you find any more bugs, let me know. I saw your post early and it was one line, and now right before I head to bed I see it's grown. What a freakin shocker.

Norton...My old nemesis. 😛issed That "security" software will give you so much trouble, I tells ya.

Glad you got the game working for you though. 😀 Let me know if you get into any/find any trouble!

 

[Lurker]

Well I outraced the old guy because I picked mage and I lost to the slime the first time, so the second time I had to follow him, I was all, "Ain't nobody got time for that."

Oh, I see, if the boulders reset when you leave, then it's fine, no need for any fix there.

About the ocean noises. It's been that way for so long I kinda forget, but I'm thinking that I went into Sandy Smiles, and then upon leaving, the wave noises stayed there, and now they just happen wherever I go in the game, except the cave. I guess that's because the cave's own background noise overrides it.

Huzzah! Well, it won't be months now. I expect this to be finished by probably the second week of August at the latest.

I have been lurking a long time for this ^^

 

[Lurker]

So I ran into something else. I tried to go back to heal during the centaur part, and a clone was blocking the bed. Then sleeping seemed to restart the whole event, which got frozen, I guess because of the movement issue.

As for less important things, the lady sleeping under the tree shapeshifts if you speak to her from different angles. And after I completed the whole Sandy Smiles part, I approached Nuu from the right but she was facing down. I know that last one isn't really a big deal at all, but just in case you want to know.

Apparantly the slime in the demo just makes the Mage her bitch. I'm shocked at this. Unless you lost on purpose, then I'm not 😛 I'll fix this though so you have to be a "polite, young whipper snapper"

Yes, boulders reset so no perma-stuck. I've got a bit of additional text for when you check the sign though so it'll let players know this.

WHY didn't anyone tell me this? This is...RRR...Ghhh...Did no one else get perma-ocean? Yea, I'll fix this up too then.

I have been lurking a long time for this ^^

Hoo hoo! I've pulled a lurker out of hiding 😀

Now I want to remind you, this isn't the FULL game. This is the first "chapter" which you'll be able to progress through the rest of the game with. Soon as the next chapter is done - BAM - you pickup where you left off.

G-go away bugs. Go away.

I'll get this fixed too. You're not supposed to heal anyways, so this should be an easy fix.

Shapeshifting lady and Nuu will be fixed too. So thank you for finding these.

 

[Lurker]

The slime isn't really too hard. I just lost because I thought I was supposed to use tickle and it would give me commands, since the old guy was talking about tickling in certain areas. Once I realized that wasn't the case and tried again a second time there was no problem. So there's not really an issue there.

The demo is pretty great. I'm trying it with all the classes to see how they are. I'm on my third playthrough now, and I've gotten the perma ocean thing every time now. My guess is maybe it only happened in a newer version that not many people got or played through in entirety because I was late to the party? Because yeah, I was thinking, "How is this not happening to other people?"

Ok, so one more thing. Honestly, I only tried this out of curiosity because someone did it in the game I made and my reaction was, "Wow, I didn't even think of that." If you change formation, Nadya isn't in the scene after. I'm guessing it's the same thing, because you're using "player" for events. You can do what you want with that information, of course. I just thought I'd let you know.

 

[DaDebble]

What a bullcrap. I forgot to save because it was just a training session, then the slime got me. Now I have to restart a new game and go through the same slooo-hoow dialogue. I'll save next time, I will.

 

[Lurker]

Paladin, Warrior, and Ranger are probably the best in the demo version, because it's solo and they can equip the heavy armor and minimize damage. I know I've seen some comments about the Paladin being good, which she really is, but I'm going to be a rebel and pick Ranger here. Ranger is amazing. Ranger has a much better attack than Paladin, IIRC, and once you use that weakening move, things just don't damage you anymore, e.g. cave boss. Pretty awesome class so far.

The mage doesn't seem to out damage the other classes, on the contrary, I was doing less damage, and with limited MP. But it's a mage, so there's no telling how awesome she will get later.

Ahhh now I see. Well I can make a correction to this with ingame dialogue that should let the player know what to use when a Mage.

Yea, the ocean thing is gonna be stamped out. Sorry you gotta deal with the soothing sound of crashing waves throughout the game. I'm sure it totally kills the mood with some scenes.

Huh! INTERESTING! Didn't even know you could do that without another party member. I'll have to do a quick search online and find out how to prevent you from swapping the leader/player position. Does all the dialogue with Nadya now appear as \N[1] as well?

What a bullcrap. I forgot to save because it was just a training session, then the slime got me. Now I have to restart a new game and go through the same slooo-hoow dialogue. I'll save next time, I will.

Ahaha looks like the plump slime has claimed another victim. I find it so funny that the tutorial enemy is also the one giving players the most deaths(from what I see anyways). Tell me, for the record, what class were you?

YESSSS More class talk. Love it.

The good part is that all classes are going to feel incredibly strong right now since you're solo. I don't want the Mage's weak defense to come into play right here and have players getting 1-shot, nor do I want a Paladin's damage to become godawful right now to where it takes you 5 minutes to go through one fight. However, you'll start to feel your class's weakness and strength once you're past the demo. The further you continue solo, the harder and harder things will be.
Still, going solo will let you have access to the 2 girls later on that I'm sure will be challenging to get to. And thankfully they'll party up with you when you meet so you can see if "this is the girl for me" while also being able to do something during the fights designed for 2+ party members.

Class specialties will also slowly be coming into play. For example, a Pally is all about tanking and saving teammates. Kind of hard to see that when you're all by yourself 😛 Rangers alter enemy stats making it easier for other party members to survive or deal damage. Rogues deal high damage like the Mage, but have more status effects that can improve party member damage for a short time on particular body spots. Warriors are the all-around class, being a bit tanky, a bit damagy, a bit aoe'y. They don't completely shine in one category, but like in most games they tend to be the good, balanced, solo guy. As for Clerics, they're the main healers and buffers of the group. Not too terrible on the damage or defense, but still nothing compared to the classes that specialize in them.
And that's just the base. I'll have items in the game that you can tailor some weird builds to. Want a really tanky Mage or Rogue? Might just happen, though you'll lose some damage potential to do it. Want a high damaging Paladin? You'll Pew Pew Pew but be a bit weaker defensively. This way, you're not forced to just 1 class, nor 1 monster girl who fills the role.

About the Mage...Yea, you're dealing with "level 1" spells with the Mage right now. She gains access to higher damaging versions as she levels. Glass cannon 101 right there. Too bad you weren't here earlier; the Mage was doing 500 damage to all enemies with one spell :stickout

I get the feeling I should feel guilty here. Hmm... :stickout

[DaDebble]

Ahaha looks like the plump slime has claimed another victim. I find it so funny that the tutorial enemy is also the one giving players the most deaths(from what I see anyways). Tell me, for the record, what class were you?

I was a Mage. My mistake was using the 'Tickle' command twice. I wanted to double-check whether I didn't just make an unlucky miss. Then I found out I better use my initial spell on her, but it was too late for I was already too low on health to beat her. Just a tutorial I thought, but the my tutor appeared to be overestimating his old bones. Luckily you get something of an interesting story out of losing this game.
Later beat her as a Rogue, and showed her mercy despite of making me wait a 2 or 3 minutes (and got 5 healing berries). Later met another familiar enemy, seems taking on the Alraune is hard to do at lvl 1 even with the healing items (but it seems possible, got her to beg, but haven't exhausted her), so I'm going to that lake now. 😉

I'll first compare classes (re-roll every time) before I decide of continuing, though. Looks like a great game you have going. The dialogue is great, but the intro is kind of slow-paced to run through again, but for a first play-through interesting enough. I hope you'll get this game to finish one day.

Oh, no, not without another party member. There's actually just one scene in the demo it can affect, as far as I know.

 

[DaDebble]

Haha. Showing mercy to the tickle slime makes her return even stronger.


EDIT: Had to level up to 4 and enter the town from the East and buy some gear to beat her this time, also did a reroll as a Cleric and decided to not give her mercy that time. It seems releasing her is the correct choice (to save after I mean). Tremendous shame were she to die so soon. 😉

Loving the game so far, albeit it has a slow-paced start.

Oh you little MinMaxer you :lol Naw, without you I wouldn't have known that and it might've leaked out further until I got to the spell. Always would've made some balancing with bosses and whatnot nonexistent because...well...why would anyone complain about a boss being too hard if you 1-shot it?

I've added another piece of dialogue which should let players know that if you have magic, use it instead. Yea, poor old Joran just couldn' handle the plump. But surely it was a surprise attack!

Your best bet would've probably been going to Sandy Smiles if you didn't level at all, but even then it's a good idea to tickle some of the lesser monster girls running around.

The fact you're testing the classes already makes me way happy. Exactly what I wanted 😀 And of course I will. Barring any horrifically tragic thing(s) in my life, this game will be finished one day. Little by little I'm going at it when I can.

Oh, no, not without another party member. There's actually just one scene in the demo it can affect, as far as I know.

So you switch positions with nothing, and Nadya disappears for...only 1 scene? Which scene?

Haha. Showing mercy to the tickle slime makes her return even stronger.

Actions have consequences! You'll find this out throughout my game. There is no correct option, per se. It just depends on what you're wanting out of it and what you'll get in return. Tremendous shame, eh? Haha. Yes, tremendous shame indeed.

Thank you though for telling me about the town. I completely blanked out that people could do that - which they shouldn't 😛 I have, however, adjusted the slime's stats (and all the others) to more appropriate levels. She should be beatable at level 3 now come Live. Even earlier depending on what you do first.

Glad you're loving it! 🙂 I've gone and added a Skip feature for the Live version that will make it easier to deal with the slow-paced parts. You'll be able to auto-skip text by holding down the Q key. Should make it a lot more bearable.

Yeah, I've found that out later. The cat girl is also fairly weak, so it took me a while to finally see the losing dialogue of her. 🙂

Just finished a playthrough as the Rogue class. Love the way the last boss of the demo breaks the fourth wall. 🙂

I had the impression I was using an exploit of some kind. 😉 I now also know were to get an early weapon before entering the town (forgot the name). Also takes some grinding, but very possible if you go back-and-forth to the church to heal. 😉 One could also go to Sandy Smiles and get some 'protection' if the player know what to do of course.

Nice addition, certainly will help me on future playthroughs.

One thing. I've found another bug in your game. Inside the cave near Sandy Smiles there are those Onis showing up after you examine the three empty bottles. If you do that from the left side, the game freezes as the Onis have to line up at the place you're standing at. In order to progress the player has to click on the bottles from the right side.

Great work. Looks very promising and it nears the quality of daabura's Labyrinth of Laughter (which sadly has been discontinued, even the Japanese version), which might have inspired you as an RPG maker. I know a lot of work has doubtlessly been put in this game, and I hope you'll remain as inspired to make the story progress.

 

[Lurker]

So you switch positions with nothing, and Nadya disappears for...only 1 scene? Which scene?

I mean the part with Worynn.

 

[colisto]

i would like to start this wall of text by saying i like this game. its very well put together, and very fun. the story is good, very traditional RPG. i LOVE the fact that you can choose to skip cut scenes very nice choice btw. there are a lot of classes to choose from and a good amount of opportunities taken. i love the scene as your entering the second town, it really adds atmosphere and i would LOVE to see more things like it. the characters so far seem good and everythings working pretty well

NOW i do have a few gripes.

how DARE you put a prison in a tickle game and not let me go down there... ever sense i saw that scene in the court i was DYING to get in there i knew there was something good down there and as soon as i get down there. NOPE! even after i talk to the general NOPE, even when i HAVE THE GENERAL WITH ME! NOPE!!! its a minor gripe it really is, and i KNOW you have the intention of me going down there, maybe when i return to the town i will have to rescue the entire town from the dungeon and i will get to see them all getting tortured -fades out with a pervy look on my face- oh yes, -cough- anyhow. like i said i know the intention is to use it at a later date but come on man give us a glimps down there give us some more great atmosphere from the dungeon you know it would be awesome.

EXTREMLY MINOR GRIPE THAT MEANS NOTHING IN THE END HERE: this game is really upper body heavy, dont get me wrong the feet tickling scenes are great, i especially love the elf, the octopus, and probably the wife at the town the best. i will say this in your defence, most games are pretty feet heavy, for a foot fetishist like myself i love that, but for the part of the community that isnt into feet, or is more into upper body tickling or just other tickling its better. im saying that the comunity tends to be geared towards the foot fetishests, and its nice to see more varried forms of art. besides you have a good amount of feet tickling scenes in there (just add a lil more for me eh? 😛)

this is probably my biggest gripe: the nearly forced grinding. i just got out of the town right? took me nearly a half an hour to figure out i had to level up once or twice before i could complete ANY of the quests (granted it might be different for other classes, i picked the mage) it was pretty frustraiting having to realise i HAD to grind my character up. being a former maple story player, i really dont like grinding... though i will say i didnt really like the solution that tower of gargalesses had, as it made you feel constantly week and trying to fall back on grinding nnever worked in fact sometimes it made things worse. but being forced to grind just feels bad, i wish there was a better solution.

in addition to the forced grinding there was little to no dirrection, i had no idea where i was going for that first 30 minutes, and honestly thought that the reason i couldn't beat the missions was because i wasn't ready yet and i just had to go do a different mission first. again a huge waist of time and i wished there was more dirrection, a quest meter would also help this to track quests. as a side thought

before i get into the last gripe im going to talk a bit about the funny things that happen in this game due to a few coincidences.

i love how during the raid on the town, right SPOILERS! when you walk up to the centars you like run up and stand by them to let them finish what they're doing. just standing there like a bunch of dopes "well we dont want to be RUDE". JUST TACKLE THE BITCH AND KICK HER ASS! (excuse my language)

my favorite little funny moment is right before the end when your about to go down into the cave...

"NOW QUICK we have to escape figment down into this cave QUICKLY BEFORE SHE COMES!"

"wow! this is a pretty big cave whats the story about this?"

"WELL four scores and 30 years ago"

NO, just go down into the freaking cave and get it done! you can exposit on the way damnit. but instead you guys have to have a hearty chuckle as the succubus lines up her shot! LOL

okay, time for my final gripe. VI... yes VI... she is my finnal gripe in this wall of text. now before you start booing and grabbing your pitchforks hear me out. your in this fantasy epic (shhh its a fantasy epic... with tickling... THIS IS SRSYS BUDNSS) and your having a great time, the story is awesome and this great part where the general sacrifices herself (love that scene) to save you, and what do you find in the cave? i virus... a FREAKING VIRUS?!? what the hell is that doing here? this is a fantasy epic not no scifi come on! i have a few problems with it:

number one, it totally derails the plot theres really only one way i could see this story being salvaged from that (other then removing her) though i wont say it because i dont want to ruin it in case it is that, because it is okay. its like watching a tail of robin hood and having aliens show up out of no where. i know i know "what do you know, havent you heard of suspension of disbelief?" yes i have, and thats my point, my belief has been returned, i cant suspend it past that and it just raises to many questions.

the other thing is the ways it could turn out that would be a huge stain on this game. if this character turns into a big lipped alligator boss im going to be severely disappoint. heck if it turns into a REOCCURRING big lipped alligator boss im going to be even more disappoint!.

although beating her led to another funny thought:

she's all like: how did you beat me you must of cheated (paraphrasing)

and im all like: ITS CALLED GRINDING. DEAL WITH IT!

well like i said prior. even though i did focus pretty heavy on the bad i want you to know this is still a great game and i cannot wait to see more. wounderful job keep up the good work
