I would have to recommend in the future to find a different solution than Mega App for downloading the game. Because of the game's size I had to create an account with them because they won't allow Firefox to download that much. Even after creating the account they only allow 9.9 GB of data every so often unless you get a paid account. I started the download around 1:30 AM and it is now 10:27 AM but there is still another three hours before it will let me download the last 500 MB that I need for the game. I know that hosting on Itch wasn't an option as they only allow 1 GB for games but maybe there's some other option. With GOG accepting adult visual novels now maybe they're an option.
Congrats on the release. Don't forget to mark the main store page as "released" instead of "in development". People might think it's early access and pass on it.
Anybody else get weird options for resolutions ? I have two monitors, one at 2560x1440 and the other at 1920x1080. The 2560P one tops out at 1920x1440 when I launch the game and see the config screen and the other monitor tops out at 1400x1050. I'm playing the Linux version 2.6.6.
I see that it just lists a .zip folder for download. Is there a Linux and a Mac executable in that folder ? Been burned a few times lately where they list support for Linux and then just have a Windows executable.
While the dev may not officially support it I can verify for anyone interested that there is a Linux version that gets downloaded with the Windows version and it runs fine for me so far.
I enjoyed the demo enough to buy the game. I will credit you in that you give all instructions needed to solve the puzzles. You even give a good hint on this page saying "You'll need to think outside more than just the box". My only issue was that I didn't expect to think outside of the game as well. Don't get me wrong, I found it inventive and creative, I just wasn't expecting it. I didn't even use your full walk through, as soon as I saw the first bit I could see where your mind had been going and pieced together the rest. Kudos, now on to the full game I go.
I saw the following issue. "seems" should probably just be "seem". As in "You seem to be making friends". Not really an error as depending on the context and sentence "seems" can be correct.
The store page has a Linux and Mac logo indicating Linux and Mac support but the files available for download specifically say "Windows.zip" and the folder indeed only has a Windows executable. Was the mistake checking the box for the Linux and Mac support or was the mistake not including the other executables ?
The store page has a Linux logo indicating Linux support but the files available for download specifically say "BuildOsx.zip" which indicates a Mac version. Is there a Linux version ? Also why does the Linux or Mac version cost $0.05 more ?
I just thought I would mention that the name of the executable for the Linux version is "sarawak". It worried me at first because I thought that maybe Itch had downloaded me the wrong game but it does indeed launch We'll Always Have Paris. You may want to change that name though.
The store page has a Linux logo indicating Linux support but the files available for download specifically say "Princess Sword.exe" which indicates only a Windows executable. Is there a Linux version ?
The store page has a Linux and Mac logo indicating Linux and Mac support but the files available for download specifically say "Invention.exe" which indicates only a Windows executable. Is there a Linux version ?
"To comply with international regulations, this transaction has been declined."
when trying to buy the game. I've never seen that error before. I'm in Canada, not sure where you're located but a quick web search showed people in a variety of countries having issues receiving funds from a variety of countries. The various posts dated from 2020 to as recent as 2023.

Almost there :) The .pck file needs to be in a folder alongside the executable where currently it now just downloads the .pck file instead of just downloading the executable. I can confirm when the two are in the same folder the game launches on Linux so as long as you package them together as a download other customers should be good to go.
When trying to run the game on Linux it gives an error about missing a .pck file. I assume it was made using Godot ? If so usually there should be a .pck file alongside the executable.
I have played dozens if not hundreds of visual novels. The only kind I dislike are kinetic novels with no choices. I dislike them because being able to branch the game and have an effect as well as making the main character more mine is a huge part of why I like the genre. I have played visual novels that last five minutes up to those that last a couple dozen hours and I have enjoyed both. I don't care whether a game is short or long so long as it is good. It's tough to list one favourite visual novel but some of my favourites would be The Falconers: Moonlight, Buried: An Interactive Story, The Mind’s Eclipse, Emily is Away, and The Last Birdling.
May I also suggest that if you have a Youtube channel to also have a Youtube alternative such as a Peertube or Odysee channel. Never hurts to give options as well as have a backup plan in case Google messes with your channel.
I'm just a customer. I like that Itch has DRM free options for games. I like that the Itch client is FOSS. I like that the store pages give the option to list details such as the engine used. I like that I can download the game files stand alone without using a client.
I wish that the notifications for game updates were easier to find. For example on GOG when I look at my game list for games I own it tells me which ones have had updates since I last downloaded the files. I also wish that Itch would do a better job moderating developers that falsely advertise their game. For instance some list a Linux version but when I go to download the game it only has a Windows version and even after reporting this the game is still for sale advertising a Linux version. Lastly I wish that reviews were public for all not just developers and those who follow me.
The game doesn't launch for me on Linux. I tried through the Itch app as well as downloading it on it's own. When I run it through Terminal the error I get is:
"error while loading shared libraries: UnityPlayer.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
