The worst bugs have been taken care of!
I'll have a detailed description of what has been changed in the next devlog, coming up very soon ^^

Here is the download link:
https://mega.nz/file/KtECmLzT#LLTKk3E4ZcFPtaV4kMS2l-UnrrFc9WH25_vSwZ1awYg 


edit: There were some minor issues in the previous version, but it's not worth making a new post so I'm editing this one instead.


Fixed issues:

- Jellies don't attack (I had set their cast speed to 0 for testing purposes and forgot to set it back... Oops. I'll take notes next time to prevent this kind of thing from happening :B)
- Fights can't be clicked while in Sneak mode

Other changes:

- Debug functions are now explained in the last info sign!



You should be able to transfer your save from the previous version, but you'll have to do it manually:

- Start the new version, calibrate the mouse, then close it.
- Go to AppData\Local
- Open BE_Witches___2023_10_07 (the previous version) and copy your save file
- Open BE_Witches___2023_11_01 (the new version) and paste your save file

I encountered a new issue... In Auria Tower "floor 3" (based on the naming from Draconian's walkthrough), there is a brick that reveals a button when you pull it... it unlocks the room to the left. After grabbing the item from that room (fortunately...) and going to the right, I noticed that the direction to the left, gone missing after that...

This can happen in a few places and is one of the bugs with the highest priority. I didn't know it could happen in this spot as well though, thank you! ^^ Leaving the floor/area and coming back should fix it for the time being!

Well that was odd. Ran into a bug in which Night Dome cursed Vuu and my inventory. Vuu was just a black square in the battle VS screen that shows up after you click the encounter blob and also she was a black square in the item/spellcards menu. Every time I went into the menu and used the upper left arrow key to exit it caused a CTD in Night Dome. All these went away after my laptop (forcibly due to a blue screen that occurred when I tried to load the game up form the exe) restarted and everything seems fine now?

Are there specific places where the revive lady shows up? I beat Nightmare and now I can't find her anymore.

nosebecc

Damn, that's new... I'm really not sure what the cause could have been. There is a memory leak I still need to fix, but I've never heard of this happening before, so that might not even be related... There's also chance something happened with your computer somehow, unrelated to the game, but I just can't tell for sure. I'll keep this in mind and look into it when I can!

She can only spawn in spots where fights can spawn, it just takes a higher amount of steps for her to spawn. Also, sneaking causes her to take longer to spawn!

Ran into another bug(technically two?) The witches that I revived seem to be disappearing. Its not all of them( them mushroom witch and the slime girl nurse have stuck around but the fairy goblin gravitar and necromancer have all vanished from the character select screen. They seem to disappear after I revive a new witch and on that note if you revive a new witch and their level is above their rank if you level them again they will drop back down. Had the mud elemental go from level 25 to 15 this way. Also although I've now found Liv a lot I've run into another problem. I'm shard poor. I can get money/magis relatively fast by strangling them outta Nightmare, but unfortunately I can't fight shape as constantly as normal battles.

Mannnnn, I've missed this game.

I approached from the left first, got the chest, then circled around to the right, got the chest, and am now locked out of going right. Entering the cave and exiting did fix it as you stated.

There's a bug with the moribund fight state: Damaging spells that are normally nullified or absorbed by an enemy actually kill the enemy if they are in moribund state. EG: Get mud elemental into moribund, use Yellow avalanche on her to kill her (which would normally heal her ~80 hp)

nosebecc

Ooh good catch! Yeah that makes sense code wise, I didn't think of that. Thank you!

nosebecc

Aah I know why the level thing is happening, it was a safety measure but it's getting in the way now... I'll look into it, thank you! As for the revived witches disappearing, there are arrows letting you select other witches i the character select menu, have you tried clicking on them? I haven't had any other reports of this happening so far, so I need to ask before lookig into this.

Anonymous

Yeah I tried clicking the arrows when I first noticed; but no the revived witches I talked about are just gone, and the game still acts like I still revived them because the revive cost is still going up per witch despite 4 of them being gone. Actually now that I think on it more the 4 that vanished also took the cost of getting them up to rank 5 and the equipment and spells they had with them too. Oof.

nosebecc

Mmh... That's really weird, I'll see what I can do. This might not have anything to do with it, but are you playing on a transferred save?

Anonymous

Yeah, the save is originally from the version before the version that made all revived witches show up with a fraction of Vuu's level. The fairy and the goblin were level 1 when they showed up and I had to grind them up, but the gravitar and the necromancer were revived when the Fraction of Vuu's level rule was implemented.

Anonymous

Got the goblin back via Liv so somehow the game unrevived the ones I revived and now they're back in the revive pool but I still have to foot the inflated cost.

I don't know if it's only me, but purple totems in Sablee won't allow me to put in the items. I have the right items, but it doesn't click in. Trying to back through the game and gather the power orbs

Anonymous

Purple totems are hints for what you need to insert in the real totem (top right of the vendor npc). All doable before finishing the main story in Sablee.

I revived some girls who were not in the story (like dragon and tiger), but they all use the zombie chibi. Is this incomplete or did I make something wrong? And some other issue: * Unlike other girls, the little blue cloud won't appear around zombie girls when they randomly get tired. * If you remove the last chosen girl from your party then go into a boss fight, the game crashes.

nosebecc

Thank you, the zombie sprites are just placeholder! The blue clouds will be fixed in a future build ^^ Thank you very much for the crash report, I'll make sure to fix this too!

Hey I am sorry but where do you find Jelly Tentacles because that is the only thing I can't find to complete the Totem

Its a drop from the guys in the ocean. Drops can be kind of rare so just keep farming them for a bit.

Anonymous

Just remember that you can get guaranteed drops every fight at 50 combo and 100 combo. So to grind for drops you just ignore everything and focus on match 3. You can get to 100 combo in about 2 full clears of the board, just make sure to not drop the combo inbetween boards by casting spells.

Some other things: * Swap swipe can't do deathblow. Is there some damage spell supposed to be this? * I can't complete these girls' page in the book: Ghost, Slime Nurse, and Gravitar. * All shapes in the book are called "Shark", and some of them seems to be incompletable. I defeated over 200 small mushrooms and it is still "???". * When you win a fight and click the girl just defeated in the book, sometimes it will cause crash. But when you reload the game then click it again, it was recorded correctly. To be honest, I come here for BE first, but the story, soundtrack, artwork and puzzles are all amazing. I'm looking forward to future updates.

nosebecc

Thank you so much, I'm glad! ^^ The almanach is in need of a lot of fixing, I've left it alone so far but I'll get to it! And thank you again for bringing up the swap swipe bug, I didn't know about this one either! I'll look into it and fix it ^^
