Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay, but here is the demo for the first half of level 4. It's a very different section to the other levels, but I do hope people enjoy it! As always, let me know if (or more likely when), you encounter any issues!Decryption Key: QjE8rpr3yajIHgSlSAglCE47XrFca0YP9veu1SJ0deEControls:Arrows: Change lane/move left and right.Spacebar: Jump

how long does the Roxxie chase scene go for?

Orbweaver

i just left the game running after it loaded but when i crashed i got an error with this code ___________________________________________ ############################################################################################ FATAL ERROR in action number 1 of Step Event0 for object obj_obstacle_wall_chunk: Unable to find any instance for object index '100640' at gml_Object_obj_obstacle_wall_chunk_Step_0 ############################################################################################ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- stack frame is gml_Object_obj_obstacle_wall_chunk_Step_0 (line -1)

That certainly shouldn't happen. I'll look into it, but if it happens again can you let me know what you were doing when it triggered?

I’m unsure what happened, I downloaded the demo, had to extract it from a zip to a download then I clicked on it. It showed the game for a few seconds but had a white block flashing on Texas and her horse for a few seconds then my computer went black. I turned it on and off twice and the screen is still black screen. Idk what happened, has this happened for anyone else?? Update: I looked up a tutorial to fix it and my computer came back on. I am unsure If I want to try the demo again but will backup my computer before trying it again.

SquashedFlat Productions

I... am utterly unsure what that could have been. Neither myself nor my testers have come across anything remotely similar to that! Could you tell me what you did to fix your computer/if you know what happened to it?

Jakey922

So I basically just held the on/off button for 15 seconds, did that 3 times and the 3rd time it came back on. After that I backed up my computer and tried it again but nothing happened. It’s hard to explain but if need be I can record my screen and post a youtube unlisted video depicting the issue

I got message soon after starting, BUT didnt replicate again ___________________________________________ ############################################################################################ FATAL ERROR in action number 1 of Step Event0 for object obj_obstacle_wall_chunk: Unable to find any instance for object index '100640' at gml_Object_obj_obstacle_wall_chunk_Step_0 ############################################################################################ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- stack frame is gml_Object_obj_obstacle_wall_chunk_Step_0 (line -1)

Overall plays great, fun mini game, well animated. The deaths scenes are Great, game over scene is probably the most inspired one I’ve seen yet, love the bound helpless heroes, massive butt squashing, interesting camera angle, and that final show with the two squashed yet wedged into roxxies butt. Love a game over where the villain gets exactly what they want!

Mr.S

Okay. So. I also got the same issue Bob did. That never came back after the first time. I played through all the K.O. animations I could think of. The animation for Butterscotch Canon seems to be bugged with a loop. After Buttscotch launched Tex into the background, the little sprite of Tex falling would repeat over and over again without end. That's the only problem I've found so far.

SquashedFlat Productions

That is very annoying... I have a sneaking suspicion I know what the problem is, and it comes from the fact that the game is loading on the horse chase level when opened, rather than the usual main menu. Still, I will look into it!

SquashedFlat Productions

Thank you! I was really happy with how the game over scene worked out! I really hadn't tried drawing from that camera angle before.

SquashedFlat Productions

Thanks! Though that is very bizarre that the crash on start isn't replicable. Does the cannon one loop every time?

Mr.S

I was able to replicate it. It happened when I have zero stars, so a K.O. would have meant a game over screen at the end of the animation. Instead it loops. Also. While trying to replicate it, I triggered the Cannon K.O. while I still had stars. The chase resumed as normal, but I could hear that whistle sound from Tex falling in the Cannon K.O. That sound played on loop.

Jakey922

Nothing happened meaning the game didn't even open

Jakey922

I just tried the download again and it played with no errors occuring

SquashedFlat Productions

Very, very odd... Perhaps the download corrupted somehow the first time? Well, in any case I hope you enjoyed it after all that hassle!

SquashedFlat Productions

Perfect! I know what's causing that then. Thank you! I'll look into both of those on stream today.

Jakey922

I definitely enjoyed it, especially the lose ending ❤️❤️❤️ keep up the good work

The game fails with an error code appearing on the black screen no matter how many times I download it. It's the same fatal error as the others.

ssd synt

When it started up. After a yellow line appears on the dark screen, an error message will occur while sound effects and BGM are playing.

SquashedFlat Productions

Ok, that sounds to me like the game is starting up and running, but the graphics aren't displaying. In the game folder there should be a file called 'Options'. If you open that one of the lines should say Vertex Buffer Method, and then a number. Try changing that number to 0, 1 or 2 then running it again.

Im trying to figure out how to even get the level to come up on the game

LyekaHusky

It crashes at the beginning of the level.

SquashedFlat Productions

And it does that every time you try and run it? Most people seem to be reporting that it happens once, then the next time they run it it's fine.

Aiden Olney

Still no Barbara blackwind in level 2 stage 2 game over, guess it would too much re-coding and re-drawing.

Aiden Olney

Better set a reminder just in case you forget again.

Thank you! And yes, there'll be four distinct phases, but for the moment there are only two. The point where Butterscotch does her break check attack will change to phase 3, where they're behind Texas.
