Bugs & Mistakes Megathread 🐛

The Game
1

For now, let’s use thread to tell us about all crashes, bugs, proofreading corrections, continuity errors, etc. When you encounter a mistake (not if, but when), it’s helpful to post it here rather than the individual episode discussions, which are more about discussing the story and sharing how your playthrough went.

When describing any kind of mistake, please include the URL. This will tell us what story you were in and what save file you were using. If the game seems to freeze or crash (how annoying!) please let us know what you last clicked, such as a particular choice, or a login button, etc. We get notifications of crashes, but it’s not always clear how it was triggered, so your comments here are quite helpful.

“It seems the place you just emerged from is very tall tower” (missing “a”)

Also, trying to sign on to the forum with discord gives an error about invalid OAuth url.

“you doubt you’ll get anywhere if unless you cooperate” (extra “if”)

Good catches, Jolimaku. I’ll patch them. I think I fixed the discord login, which was set to use our old URL. And thanks for stopping by to comment! It’s very helpful.

Thanks for the response and the quick fixes. I found another one from the start of chapter one: “Mentally, you pepare yourself for a lot of rowing” (missing r in prepare)

“spherical gem with a silver of light” should probably be sliver instead of silver? Or a silver light?

" Neatly handwritten text chronicles someone’s …". This has a leading space for some reason

" She’s been staying here …" Same here

“Used brass_key” with underscore after using it.

“stares at the cieling” ceiling

“Muriel is learning against the wall” leaning

“We’ll have to clear it someone” with someone

“The journey is requires cutting route with no trail” the journey requires cutting a route?

“It is the same note as the tuning fork, but much deeper” I don’t believe a tuning fork was mentioned before? Should be bell or chime?

“Many octives lower” octaves

“Shimmering portal collapses” The shimmering portal

A more technical issue: when a new page opens, and it starts longer than a screen high, it doesn’t scroll to the top but retains the scroll position from the previous page. Probably only possible when playing on mobile so you have a smaller screen.

Thank you for the proofreading. Proofreading code is a pain since I can’t simply spell check with all the variables and such. I just pushed a patch for those.

The scroll issue is a good catch, one I haven’t noticed because I don’t test on mobile as often. We should probably add something to the clear screen function that makes it scroll to the top.
