EDIT

Hey! I know you want me to export this into steam/itch.io/floppydisk/yourgrandma/etc

but that might take a bit, so realized in the meantime I can pass it to you guys directly

you can download it here (this is where I save my story works. Its the yellow one with the Chloe drawing)

Here is the subreddit r/Chloevely , for discussion and likely future visual novels on the Chloeverse

It might get a tiny little bit complicated, Im curious to see who will get it o/

A lot of engines can compile to pc/mac/linux these days, I'm suprised we don't see more cross platform releases

Well, according to one developer the reason they don't "officially" support Linux is because the user base takes up less than 1%, whereas a large portion of automated crash reposts come from said 1%.

I think this is the dev you were referring to and that isn't the full story. Many of the bug reports were of high quality and many of the bugs reported affected all platforms.

Pengu people also actually care about bug reporting. The 99% WOULD be more bug reports then that 1% but turning off error reporting and statistic gathering is turned off by so many people and nontechies don't send in error reports most of the time.

Also the company that said that was being stupid when they did. There was a lot of information they where glossing over to try to prove their point.

Am a fruit person, huge props to r/SrGrafo for making it cross platform! A ton of devs don’t care in the slightest sadly

Just recognized the sketch you're holding in the post is stick figures of the main cast of the White Rooms, nice touch.

Install joiplay and joiplay renpy extension from google play. Extract the zip and run the 32bit executable from joiplay

u/AlpineCorbett Mar 11 '22

Use joiplay

Windows? Mac? I'm a phone.

Also, before we go downloading, how long is the VN?

No, that wasn't creepy, not creepy at all.

u/megaboto Mar 12 '22

Well shit, I thought there might be a download for Android as well. Oh well, I guess I'll have to use my laptop

Any chance of getting an arm build of this? When I run ./ChloeVely.sh I get the error:

Ren'Py platform files not found in:

~/ChloeyVely-1.0-linux/lib/linux--aarch64

I managed to find an arm build of renpy in the arch repos and got it working, but most distros don't have any and building the thing from source is sort of a huge pain in the ass.

Your site is too slow, it took 0.86 seconds to load… you must face punishment
