Never have i been so satisfied with a character receiving their just deserts what you dis with Benjamin was peak entertainment Mindless attack dogs however are n nothing compared to their masters I need the rich asshole who dared to threaten the adorable ones TO SUFFER .
I couldnt ask in discord so I will ask here. I was playing the game and realized that actions that would grant me a heart with the characters are not giving me a heart and so some event are locked out for me. I tried restarting again but the problem is still there. Any ideas on what to do?
First of all, just in case, you should know that the hearts in the overview screen don't correspond 1:1 to the number of affection points you have. Now, if you're struggling I have both a written guide and a walkthrough mod here if you need them.
Hello I really love the game and just wanted to thank you again! Also I wanted to ask when the final chapter gonna release. It been three years now since the game got released.
Not working on it yet, I'm 100% focused on Eternum, but after I'm done with it, yes! There will be a new game with new girls and a new and exciting story 🤩
I wanted to ask you that...when full version of eternum will release?...or you are loving to tease by releasing small small updates one after another.... because if its your plan...let me tell you...your plan is working more than you think... I'm very impatient person....I completed you both games within a week or less...and both of them were just... mind-blowing...
If you would be in front of me... I'll hug you so tightly that...😄😄 Honestly...I even don't have words how I will show my happiness to you...
I also wanted to ask, when Eternum 0.8 will release?...
And in the end, I want to say that...I love you bro...and your game..., by the way...are you a girl or a boy?😁😁...no offense, but just to know...
If you're into avn you should check out Corrupted Kingdoms. came for the porn and stayed for the interesting story. it is a pretty different art style though
(sorry to plug someone's game on another person's game that's kinda scummy)
I know that Discord has to know your birthday before it lets you on an 18+ server. That's what the problem is in most cases. If that's not it, my expertise on Discord is limited and there's not much info to go off of, so I don't think I can help you further.
sounds like you just wanna be right and not submit to the facts because you're angry over a VN having better quality than most, at least caribdis puts their heart into this for us fans. stay mad.
His questions weren't offensive, go easy on your angry responses folks.
You're right, everything is already rendered in advance, nothing is rendered at runtime.
The playtime of this AVN is already very impressive, for a slow player like me it's ~30 hours already.
There are a lot of different renders. Every frame is a new render, there's little reuse and there are no shortcuts. That makes the bulk of the size, we're close to 10.000 of them I think.
There are hundreds of animations, which are, on average, longer than in your typical AVN. And a lot of them have a moving camera, which drives up their size too.
The game also goes heavy on music & SFX, we might have passed the thousand mark on them already.
So yeah, it's a lot. Media compression is already being used, though you can always push it a bit more in exchange for worse quality, like they do in the Android version.
Not normal, it's a weird bug that affects certain Android devices since 0.7. The Android developer is trying to isolate it I believe. I'm sure Tanxui knows more.
I've taken a lot of initiative when it comes to this bug. However, Ixalon made the build, he is in the best position to find a fix. Everything I'd do would require twice the effort compared to him.
Let's compile what we know so far:
The bug has been reported mostly on Android, but also on Mac devices.
It affects some devices, but not all of them. No pattern has emerged yet when it comes to which devices are affected.
It always manifests like this: The game has zero audio, except on the 18+ screen at the beginning. All frames that are animations are completely black instead. Though dialogue still plays as normal.
Additionally, some people report occasional crashes while being affected by this bug. We have only one crash report, it complains about failure to allocate graphics resources, possibly because the game ran out of memory?
Android users reported that the game worked fine when it was single-apk, only the multi-file versions have the problem.
One Android user even said that for him this applies to all Android RenPy games: As soon as they switch from single-apk to multi-file, the game doesn't work properly anymore.
Theory 1: The game needs more memory than some devices are able to provide. Maybe we can optimize memory usage?
Theory 2: Some devices are unable to handle certain manners of compression. Maybe we can use other manners of compression instead?
Love Ripples, but the number of sentences ending in "at" and the liberal use of "anyways" disconnects my old ass too often. That's on me, not the game, as that is how characters that age speak now, but it still rankles.
Once in a Lifetime is a finished game that, while in some ways a product of the tools available at the time, is better than almost all similar games existing now, much less then.
I went a few chapters into My Bully, but the dialogue is hard. The story seems great, but the translation hurts my head.
Downloaded Dreamlink based on this post. It isn't just like this, so far, it looks like an homage to this. Nothing wrong with that. Shows potential so far, and other than Lucy having blue eyes in one scene, the only complaint I have is that I have a very large snowshoe Siamese cat, big enough to put his front paws on the kitchen counter while his rear paws are on the floor. Being that large, he has the head-down mountain lion walk instead of the meshed left-right head-up shuffle of the other cats, and has a pronounced snout, meaning he's a bit cross-eyed when focusing close in. The girls in Dreamlink seem the same, as if their eye-focus setting was placed right in front of them during illustration, not back where the MC's POV is.
You're very sensitive to improper language I see. I rarely notice things like that. About the cross-eyed thing, why don't you tell the dev directly in his comment section or on his Discord server? I'm sure he'd appreciate your feedback.
Because I don't know enough about the tools used to know whether my perception is correct, same as I never tell an artist "you should do [my fantasy]." In all of these games, the thing is to roll with the author's vision. I don't ever want to be that asshole who complains about free games not catering to my kinks (this one mostly doesn't, it's just so good, it is the LotR of AVNs, and having the Hobbit already finished is also way cool). I answered here because that was the question posed.
If you are bilingual in My Bully native and English, I'd be happy to help, but I don't think this is the thread for that.
There's a difference between friendly & constructive criticism and selfish complaining. What you wrote definitely belonged in the former category and every dev is free to disregard your opinion if you're not the target audience. If you're not sure, then just word it accordingly. I didn't notice the cross-eyed thing, but I'm not known for being very observant.
I'm a dev too (in some sense) and I would have appreciated it if you gave me that kind of feedback. That's double checking I'd gladly do.
I don't know what you wanted to say with the last paragraph.
And btw the best free AVN game out there along with OIALT, from plots to characters and dialogues, it's all so intrigued for players to dive into the adventure 😄
Hi caribdis it's me again i love all the game you develop bro and it's kinda sad bro can you fix the download of eternum for Android bro because it keeps retrying bro and I hope you develop more games in the future bro I literally cry because I couldn't see Luna again it's just depressing bro
Λατρεύω αυτό το παιχνίδι. Σας ευχαριστώ Caribdis που το κάνατε.
Δεν μπορώ να περιγράψω πόσο ευγνώμων είμαι γιατί αυτό είναι ένα παιχνίδι "Όνομα της δικής σας τιμής". Αν είχα την ευκαιρία, θα σας υποστήριζα με χρήματα σε έναν κτύπο της καρδιάς.
This is the best story game I've ever played,this is so great.
First time I am playing I lost my path with dalia and Luna I am not rewind the decision that I am make so I want to know what could possibly happen and after the third time I am playing I see this game have so much story line or different scene even if you get the wrong decision. I am must saying this need a lot of work and it's worth it to play, I really gonna share this game with all of my homie
Not just story but the music is so good to listen man I really love it
Man, I saw that cliffhanger coming from a mile away, but it hit hard all the same. Also, the scenes in chapter 8 were some of the best yet. Keep up the great work.
oh and btw. THANK YOU for implementing I'd rather stay on earth, that song is so super indy - I'd never have known it and it instantly became one of my favorite songs
In Eternum, every girl has a path and bad choices can make you irreversibly lose a girl's path. This is indicated by their portrait becoming grey in the overview screen. Either deal with it and move on or load an older save and try to make things right.
I made a walkthrough that specializes in troubleshooting paths, like in your case! You can find it here, it's the third download option.
I love the characters, the humor - god did I laugh a lot, the story, the romance. Definitely in my top 5 games of all time. I find it that good.
Just playing it for the third time, didn't even notice that a new version was out already - just starting with Episode 7 Last thing I knew from my last playthrough was Bardot at Alex' place. Boy, what a revelation, even more questions :D Seems like Bardot isn't such a thundercunt after all... well he is but there's something about his intentions which seem... hmm, I'm not sure what his game really is but I love to find out.
Once in a lifetime was awesome, but this is just... on a whole different level
Came to goon, stayed for the brilliant writing and laughs. Was not expecting to like a game like this. Gotta submit a donation here next chance I get. Very well deserved.
My man!!! You got me so locked in with this game! Im going to give you a BIG DONATION SOON!! It's not even just the scenes, which are amazing, but the storyline, music, PLOT!! EVERYTHING!! Question though, will we see Eva more? Will she be a part of the girls? I really like her, and it'd be so sad if shes just a background character. Eva has features that the other girls don't and she catches my heart so much. Eva is definitely a potential. Great work my man, can't wait for 0.8 Version! Please continue the series! :)
this game has me absorbed in the lore and story the h scenes just feel like a side bonus(theyre amazing dont get me wrong) waiting for upd feels like an eternity

waiting for 0.8.............................
I couldnt ask in discord so I will ask here. I was playing the game and realized that actions that would grant me a heart with the characters are not giving me a heart and so some event are locked out for me. I tried restarting again but the problem is still there. Any ideas on what to do?

Keep in mind those scenes/suggestions/requests are not granted, if you have any doubts you can reach out to me on Discord!
Hello I really love the game and just wanted to thank you again! Also I wanted to ask when the final chapter gonna release. It been three years now since the game got released.
According to my calculations there will be around 5 or 6 more updates
After that, I'll start a new game :D
Is the upcoming 0.8 update counted among those 5-6 remaining updates?
Will there be any sequal of Eternum? Or Once in a Lifetime?... please tell us....
Or are you working on a new game?
Not working on it yet, I'm 100% focused on Eternum, but after I'm done with it, yes! There will be a new game with new girls and a new and exciting story 🤩

Thanks for such amazing games....
When is 8.0 coming out?
how to download eternum again on phone is just a zip idk how to download
Here's an installation guide
If you're into avn you should check out Corrupted Kingdoms. came for the porn and stayed for the interesting story. it is a pretty different art style though
(sorry to plug someone's game on another person's game that's kinda scummy)
How to get to that game...send a link...
https://thearcadean.itch.io/corrupted-kingdoms here's the link for both of you if you're interested
Thank you so much!
So yeah i made a new acc for discord and when I finally get to enter the chat disappears and well I guess it kicks me out, how to fix this?
You should read the last question in the server's FAQ.
Umm i can't even access the server let alone read the rules and stuff
If you can't get into the server at all: Go to the Family Center in the Discord settings, input your birthday, then try again.
There's now bday settings tho in family center
I know that Discord has to know your birthday before it lets you on an 18+ server. That's what the problem is in most cases. If that's not it, my expertise on Discord is limited and there's not much info to go off of, so I don't think I can help you further.
When can the next update be expected?
Public release in october i guess, just check the developement log and the intervals of releases
Public release in october is very optimistic.
A more realistic guess would be public release around Xmas
how do you make a VN 7 GB
high quality models and animations
no they arnt. these are just gifs and images, theres no 3d rendering
sounds like you just wanna be right and not submit to the facts because you're angry over a VN having better quality than most, at least caribdis puts their heart into this for us fans. stay mad.
this is maybe the saddest comment ive ever seen
ironically, I found this out after I posted this comment. Yeah, you are right. Now I'm having the same questions as you
This game uses video files, not gifs. Also those images number by the thousands, so compression alone would only reduce file size to a point.
His questions weren't offensive, go easy on your angry responses folks.
You're right, everything is already rendered in advance, nothing is rendered at runtime.
So yeah, it's a lot. Media compression is already being used, though you can always push it a bit more in exchange for worse quality, like they do in the Android version.
Discord link doesn't work
I fr wanna join in
discord link is expired, please anyone kind enough send me a new invite
https://discord.gg/caribdisgames try this bro
I finally got in, but thanks anyways bro
you're welcome bro:)
Go to the Family Center in the Discord settings, input your birthday, then try again.
God tanxui had replied yeahhhhhhhhh
When's the next update? <3 I hate cliffhangers!
i guess public release in october
Okay sweet! I was trying to look for it myself but I guess I missed where it said that, thank you so much!
I hope there's a Korean version of mobile Android
if there's a hospital in next update, add mgs V reference puh-LEASE
Need help! When going in the scene the animation turn black screen but i can still see the dialog. Is it normal?
Not normal, it's a weird bug that affects certain Android devices since 0.7. The Android developer is trying to isolate it I believe. I'm sure Tanxui knows more.
If you can try playing on another system like PC.
I've taken a lot of initiative when it comes to this bug. However, Ixalon made the build, he is in the best position to find a fix. Everything I'd do would require twice the effort compared to him.
Let's compile what we know so far:
I might as well start to collect some statistics. jakoma123, please provide the following information about your device:
Maybe this can confirm or rule out some theories. The bug will be there for a while, so I suggest you play on another device in the meantime.
Are the school uniforms used in this game the school uniforms in my hero academia?
May anyone tell me, other games that are like this? they frickin nailed it to the board
Ripples by Jesturr
It's a must try!
Ripples is great, but I wouldn't say it's similar. Here are a few other games you could check out:
Yes...Dreamlink is certainly very much like this 😆🤣
Love Ripples, but the number of sentences ending in "at" and the liberal use of "anyways" disconnects my old ass too often. That's on me, not the game, as that is how characters that age speak now, but it still rankles.
Once in a Lifetime is a finished game that, while in some ways a product of the tools available at the time, is better than almost all similar games existing now, much less then.

I have quite a problem while installing OIALT, it always fails at the middle of downloading
Use a different download provider (Mediafire works best for me) or try downloading with a different browser.
Exciting for the new update to come!
And btw the best free AVN game out there along with OIALT, from plots to characters and dialogues, it's all so intrigued for players to dive into the adventure 😄
thank you for the french translate and i hope to see update soon :)
I really like the game so much I hope you make more scenes of Luna and other girls
Of course! :D
Hi caribdis it's me again i love all the game you develop bro and it's kinda sad bro can you fix the download of eternum for Android bro because it keeps retrying bro and I hope you develop more games in the future bro I literally cry because I couldn't see Luna again it's just depressing bro
Λατρεύω αυτό το παιχνίδι. Σας ευχαριστώ Caribdis που το κάνατε.
Δεν μπορώ να περιγράψω πόσο ευγνώμων είμαι γιατί αυτό είναι ένα παιχνίδι "Όνομα της δικής σας τιμής". Αν είχα την ευκαιρία, θα σας υποστήριζα με χρήματα σε έναν κτύπο της καρδιάς.
为什么没有itch.io的内部链接，使用itch.io应用程序直接更新游戏而不是重新下载，itch.io好像还会提供云存档

Spanish?
We already published our Spanish translation up to 0.3: https://daknosolar.itch.io/eternum-spanish-translation
We hope you like it!

Vale gracias
This world without Luna is so boring , Luna my girl take me away.
wtf. are you talking about? There's no No-Luna, unless you screwed up and lost her path which is rather hard to do
the real world. bro is talking about the real world
The game is cool, but I have doubts. Was it worth taking the artifact that the Creator offered, what does it affect?
I think you are not supposed to take it
You have to take it, yes, it'll give you access to optional scenes in the futureI thought you meant the Collector's artifact sorry, definitely don't take the Founder's one 😂
I think he meant the Founder, not the Collector.
Why?👀
If by Creator you meant the Founder and the artifact you meant is the Amulet of Blair, walkthrough states not to take it.
If Creator is typo for Collector and the artifact you meant is the Doppelmorpher, then take it.
Can you add a language option for Traditional Chinese? Thanks♪(･ω･)ﾉ
This is the best story game I've ever played,this is so great.

That was brutal as shit though, I mean, it makes perfect sense but still..... omfg :D - I kinda hate it hah
Can't wait for the next ep

Oh... my... fucking.... god
I knew something's gonna happen on that Pizza ride but fuck me... that was brutal
Can't wait for 0.8... this is one mean ass cliffhanger man... you can't do this :D
one of the best games ive played in a while. after this one, im definitely downloading the other finished game.
after playin some time am unable to see some characters stats what do i do?
