Himeros Hotel - Adult Adrift Adventure 1.04

[Seztworks]

Developer update

Health is a lot better. Fever is gone. Arm is sore but getting better every day.
Now to the important stuff Getting rid of the fever led to a burst of progress as my brain did not feel like it was submerged in hot glue anymore.

Progress report. New stuff implemented so far since last release.
16 events.
2 scenes.
1 feature.

Still no fixed goal for the first beta, but I might push it closer to version 0.25 than the original planned 0.20. The goal is still to have another almost complete path in the next release and the one that I am aiming for does require more partial paths to work. The upside is that almost all the paths will have a bit more content and the story will start to make more sense overall in the first beta.

No eta at this point but good progress so far. Will keep you updated as we move closer to release.

Its been a fun game so far, I've enjoyed searching around even with the limits on the character stories.

I found something odd with Frey, I encountered her on the roof one night and somehow got the information on the pictures, I might have asked about them but I think it just came up which surprised me. Anyway, she said to visit her at the restaurant and when I do got there at the appointed time I don't see any additional action.
Nvr mind, figured this one out, wasn't the most obvious choice for subject at first though after it was pretty obvious.

I've also been told by Zoe I can eat at the restaurant, but when I try to do so I get told that someplace with a kitchen would be a good place.

Just wondering if I missed something with these?

Hiya beyo111 and Pisolotto_00

Thanks for the interest in the game.

First off beyo111. Zoe shouldn't mention that you can eat in the restaurant. You can at this point in time only eat in the employee lounge. I am just going through the conversations to remove the info about finding a kitchen. It was a leftover from an old version.

Regarding Frey and the pictures. I hope you have asked about them somehow. She shouldn't start talking about them on her own I will have to go back and check her outfits and such as you can ask her about it outside of the restaurant and it clashes a bit with her look. I also corrected the leadin to make it more clear where you have to meet her and what to ask of her at that time.

The first reward event is in the Restaurant at 22.

@Pisolotto_00. I am not sure anyone has made a walkthrough yet as the game is still changing a bit and there isn't that much content. Your best bet right now is to search in this thread I would think or if you are stuck on a specific part feel free to ask here.

I was going to ask where you are from. but i took a guess it was in the introduction. Are you able to understand the story? Also a quote from LRM "There is no official language here. English is most commonly used but if you're not comfortable with that, please post in your native language and we'll do our best to understand." got it out of the introductions.

And now the tricky part. This can be messed up / wrong / totally wrong / insanely wrong translation

Stavo per chiedere dove siete da . ma ho preso una supposizione era in premessa . Sei in grado di capire la storia ? Anche una citazione da LRM "Non c'è nessuna lingua ufficiale qui . L'inglese è più comunemente usato , ma se non stai bene con quello, si prega di inviare nella tua lingua madre e noi faremo del nostro meglio per capire. " ottenuto fuori delle introduzioni .

E ora la parte difficile . Questo può essere incasinato / sbagliato / totalmente sbagliato / traduzione follemente sbagliato

And i am not Italian, I used google --- E io non sono italiano , ho usato google

I wasn't sure about Zoe and the restaurant, but thanks for clarifying.

I finished the Frey story arch, I will have to go back and try again but I do not recall asking Frey about them, it happened up on the roof when I was able to ask her and it showed up then somehow. Working on Gem now, haven't finished with Celeste yet, but have not had an opportunity to do as Scruffy has asked with Celeste yet either. Not really clear on that.

As it is the game is pretty fun, and I do not mind the pictures...I look forward to its completion.

Hello Boys and Girls

Current count since last release.
24 New events. Some are multistage and also testing the first events with multiple solutions.
5 New scenes.

If everything goes as planned we could be looking at a release at the end of this month. No promises but it looks that way right now. It will be close to 1½ complete paths and assorted events spread out for the other paths.

Once Beta 0.25 is out the plan is to do another Alpha round based on feedback from you awesome people.
(The clairvoyant among you might have noticed that I plan releases so I can go to the cinema to celebrate. Alpha 17 was Star Wars and this time it might be Deadpool. I can not confirm or deny this )

Have a good day

Hello all.

Here we are. Beta version 0.25.
1 "complete" path. Missing final story events to avoid spoilers.
33 New Events.
- First attempts at problems with multiple solutions.
- Including some new non-interactive lore events.
10 New Scenes. Tripled the amount in the game.
1 New System. Another energy source.

I had less issues with adrift this time around so the planned content got completed faster.
The new content is not hard to complete compared to some of the content in the game already. Since this is still one of the easier paths there is a lot of hand holding.

Test notes for anyone willing to give it a go:
- Please keep spoilers inside spoiler tags.
- Please note if you find harsh spelling errors or bugs. (Spelling is very uneven and work in progress.)
- Please write down any cases where you wanted to ask a character something and you got the default error.
---I most likely won't add all these cases but seeing what you find natural to ask about would be interesting.
- Feel free to send me a PM with any of the above or suggestions or write a reply to the post here.

I will let people fool around with the beta for a bit while collecting feedback for the first alpha release of this round. I have tested the content and could complete everything implemented so far. If any game breaking bugs pop up I will patch asap.

Thanks in advance for your time and interest.

P.S. If you are using a savegame from Alpha 017 you might get some events popping at the same time or some out of sync events. It might be confusing, but I hope everything still works.

[Skelaturi]

Sweet, busy days ahead, but will send you a transcript asap.

Find a bug.


I'm on day 6 but I suppose it happen any day.

Lara want to go to shopping at 15, and Celeste want me to go buy food at 14. At 14 I'm go to the Lobby, I write the command 'take bus' and this happen

Code: Select all

> take bus
You take the bus to the farmers market. 
You walk around for a bit before you hear a voice behind you.
"Hey. Shall we get going?"

You turn around to see Lara in a hoodie trying to blend in with the crowd. Almost works.
"Yes of course. The store you selected is waiting for us."
You lead her through the crowd of the market towards the high end stores nearby.

Press the Space Bar to Continue.
  --

I go to the market, but the hour is change to 15 and I go to shopping. At end of the shopping, I need to wait 1h to wait the bus who will take me to the hotel bus is at 16. And of course I don't buy the groceries so Celeste is not happy at all with me...

I suppose you change the hour to 15 too soon, you need to let me buy food, go back to the hotel, then change the hour. and I can after go to shopping

[Seztworks]

Hi jerenyg
There seems to be some bugs with time right now. When doing certain events that cause time to pass.

Taking the bus to the market will always take 1 hour. In the case where you have the Lara event at the market you should just be able to buy the food at the market once the event is done. It should still work. If not let me know.

[jerenyg]

it actually work.

You can do both, even if for me there is a problem, Lara ask you to take her to shopping at 15 and you take her at 14.

I do. take bus at 14, shopping, buy groceries, return at hotel at 16.
when the story say you need to do take bus at 14, buy grocerries, return to hotel at 15, take bus at 15, shopping, return to the hotel at 16.

[Seztworks]

It can be a bit confusing. I will check to see if I can word it more clearly.

Celestes task tells you to take the bus at 14. No return time mentioned. Just to place the food when you get back.
Laras task tells you to meet her there at 15. As the bus takes an hour you need to leave at 14 for this as well.

If anyone gets stuck because a character is not at a place where you expected them to be please save and wait for first alpha. Some of my time functions are slightly buggy and this can cause some weird errors with characters not moving right between hours. I am not sure how bad it affects gameplay right now.

[jerenyg]

you are right. It's me who understood bad or read to fast. Yes Lara say to take the bus at 14. So all is good
