Why is there a 0.4 difference between the CN version and the EN version?

(1 edit) (+2)

Too lazy and busy to update the chinese version.....so I wait until definite version before doing it all at once.

If there are no any bugs report after a while I will start implement chinese words

Hello! I was wondering if you could help me, as I'm not sure if it's my computer doing it or a bug. When extracting the game file, I'm given an "error 0x8096002A: No error description available" message. This was also occurred before the new update, so I'm not sure if it's my computer blocking it or something else. Any help would be appreciated! :)

Try to unzip it with 7zip?

Please let me know if it still not working. sorry for the inconvenience caused.

That did the trick, I appreciate the assistance! I'm looking forward to trying out your game in progress. If I have a chance later on, will try my best to give any feedback to help improve your game. :D

Quick question is it possible to run this on a android and if not will I be able to in the future?

I tried to export it into android many times but each time failed horribly. I don't think I will try again, sorry.

But it can be play in Joiplay android, it works.

I finished playing the demo and this is easily one of the best-looking RPG Maker games I ever seem! I didn't even suspect it was made on RM when I first saw it.  

It's very easy to get immersed in the world you created, I found myself admiring all the locations and the implications of the visuals very fast. It helps a bunch the cutscenes have a lot of effort put on them and the existing characters grows on you pretty quickly.  

The animations are amazing too! I love how on top of the backgrounds having a lot of personality, all the characters have multiple idle animations that helps you getting attached to them even with the low amount of talk we can actually do in the demo. The random bandit having a special battle animation made me giggle, good stuff.  

I have to say I love most of the charming alien ladies and I'm also a sucker for post-apocalyptic scenarios, so this game pretty much has me covered from every angle lol  

Being a solo dev is though and your project certainly seems like a huge commit, but I hope you can succeed on making Frozen Soil possible! I will follow the game for sure!

Good luck and  thank you for the great demo!

(+3)

Thanks for playing! I was so overwhelmed by your compliment and kind words, Thank you!

Ver.0.1.8 was original plan to release this March but delayed because I just become a father last December so dev times are hugely impacted. I really underestimate the impact of caring for a newborn.

Currently I can only devs on office lunch hour_(:з」∠)_.0.1.8 is at 90% finish, I hope it will be release soon.

Here are some sneak peak.






I don't know if I'm able of finish the game, but I'll giving it my all.

Both those prints and  the ones from the last devlog are amazing! 

I hope you can manage both the time with your kid and the game, but don't forget to take care of yourself too!

(+1)

I played through your demo and was blown away. It was really fun and i couldn't stop smiling when playing it. Keep it up, i love it.

I wonder what the other Star-Vehicles look like you got First, Second, Third & Star-Seven and they are amazing. AAAAAA i get so excited when i think about it!!!!

Thanks for playing and the compliment! A comment like this really keeps me going. Than you!

Thank you!

It makes me happy that i made you happy!

So what's the difference between the 2 downloads?

(+1)

CN is chinese, EN is english.

I just finished the demo and it was amazing. Quick question tho. Will there be a difficulty setting incase we ever wanna play on higher difficulty or just an easy playthrough?

Thanks for playing! Yeah I don't want the game to be too hard, I will make some adjustment to next update like less easy to get ammo and money, make status effect less powerful but overall still an easy game.

Will add some harder hidden bosses in the future too.

I recently played the demo and I have to say it was short an sweet and fun! what i like most is about it was the humor and the characters the combat section was also really fun but playing with mouse and keyboard it's a little janky like I would click on the enemy above another it would still attack the other but with how fast combat was I never really encountered it too often and would controller support coming later? Last three things who is your favorite character? i have two Hix and Yarunna also is Hix a play on the Pokémon trainer Hex? I know I've said a lot but i wanna support your game and give feedback and ask some questions so i hope this helped!

Oh one last thing the demo was short and sweat but I feel like I missed stuff is there any secrets in the demo because i would love to replay it again and find them but give subtle hint's if so.

There are a hidden character the bike girl and her village. You need to get a key from here

(+1)

Thanks for playing and the feedback!

The game should support controller and I was play test with Logitech controller it works pretty well.

Yea, Hix was a homage of hex maniac of pokemon game. I may change her appearance a bit in the future, don't want Gamefreak send a ninja to me.

As the creator I loves them all equally. At the moment I'm working on their personal event(Yarunna,Hix+David,Yaz+Virone and Autumn) hope to fresh out their character more. After this I will move on to chapter 2.

Just played the demo and I want to say that character designs are fantastic and overall story and humor are pretty good(I really like stories taking place in post apocalypse earth). I want to ask some questions about the romance side of the game. Will there be harem option or will we have to choose one partner? And will there be kiss scenes or do you count them as NSFW?

(+2)

Thanks for playing!

No plan for harem right now. The romance is pretty simple, you just need to finish their event/quest chain and choose the girl you like after the final battle. You can have multiple romance at once.

Kiss yes. No showing nipples or outright fucking.

(1 edit)

will there be nsfw with big booba lady ;-; 

big pretty ladies aside this game is beautiful like a classic rpg cant wait for more updates 

No nfsw, sorry.

(+2)

:D

(+1)

Game not yet finish _(:з」∠)_

(+2)

it's soo amazing, a need a full version ;3, congrats for good game (srry my bad ing ;-;)

后面还会更新什么呢?

-正想办法解决载具卸下装备后hp不会自动回复的问题。

-加快玩家的行走速度。

-重绘世界地图,怪物战斗从暗雷改成明雷。

-隐藏村里增加一个温泉。

-新手村最里面的第三街道重制,在那里会加入猩猩女和狐女的个人事件。

-有玩家投诉新手村很长从里面出去外面要走很久,所以打算添加更方便的村内快速旅行。

以上大概是这个测试版/第一章最后会更新的内容了,除了修bug。目前还在绘制着女角们的个人事件,希望能在明年3月左右完成。_(:з」∠)_

以及我想知道钥匙在那里?

THE PERFECT GAME IS MADE ON RPG Maker Game (sorry bad english)

Thank you! Don't worry me no english speaker too, game has many grammar mistake_(:з」∠)_

I feel like "The Arts User" is the hardest  to get. I cant figure out for the life of me where the key is.

This video will show you how to get the key

https://streamable.com/9le5va

In the second map of Pine Grave fall to the bottom then hug the left wall, there is a hidden passage to a camping area, the key is in the locker.

I was on the thread on /v/ and saw a .webm of this game where the party was at a hot spring. Played the demo and couldn't find it. Where is it? 

Sorry not in the game yet. Will be in the next update, hopefully I can get it done soon. Thanks for playing bro.

I just seen your game screen, it make me wonder how is the story in this game. But I just downloaded in few minutes, the file is no found. Is this something wrong in the game files ?

I've log out and download the game from 2 different computer and no problem downloading, the files are there and playable. Do you use winrar to unzip the file? Also the game are not support for mac.

If you still facing any problem than I'm sorry, I have no idea what causing this. Maybe try to contact itch.io support.


(1 edit)

Got it. And I do use winrar to unzip the file.

Cheers, hope you enjoy the game.

I would love to play frozen soil on android, is there a possibility for the future?

(+1)

I must say, I'm quite excited for the continued devlopment of this game. Characters with varying sizes, interesting personalities, etc. I see a lot of potential and can't wait for more

(+1)

Update coming ?

(+2)

Lots of real life happening at the moment, but I still making the game just slow pace right now.

Last update for the demo should be out before end of the year.

Just checking. No need to rush, this year or next year. Don't push yourself too much. Even 12419 billion trillion dollars companies can't go in time and you make much superior game than most of them for less and by yourself.

(WARNING LONG COMMENT)

Alright. I'll be honest, while it said that the average playtime was around 1 hour, I've played Frozen Soil for 5 to 6 hours and I think I can provide a decent feedback.

About the Story

From what I understood we play as a human who's part of a team of space mercenaries who came to earth which is now in a permanent ice age and filled with eldritch abomination. We got 2 mission: help someone's named Gorro and meet up with a compagny of Soil Hunters who wants to dig up some soil of Earth since it's great to farm...

Wow. Honestly I really like the plot and while we know Earth's been invade by aliens centuries ago, all of this raises so much questions and it's fantastic. Personally, I'd love to see how Earth's climate changed and what remains of human civilisation, That's an amazing plot and I can't wait to learn more about it.

Gorro's quest serves to introduce some other characters. I'm not going to spoil it if someone is reading this.

Landscape, arts, music and design

Personally, I love snow so I'm biased here. Even tho snow is fantastic, the fact that all maps are made on RPGM is honorable. The parallax mapping on some maps is well done and so is the static background in the garage or the ship (I'm curious, how did you manage to add a static background?)

As for the character design... Well, it's just furries and fan service for the most part, but it's relatively soft compared to what's already existing and most importantly, it's not everywhere and enjoyable. As for the non-furries it's well done. For ennemies, I their design is horrifying for the most part and that's cool, nothing more to say about that.

Musics, same things... I LOVE SNOW LANDSCAPE WITH PIANO. I don't know if theses musics are already in RPGM or if you/someone made it, idk but it's good.

Lastly, animations... It's impeccable, specially the special combat skills (repairs, healing, 9mm shots and that damn eating animation wich feels like you made it a 24fps animation just for it).

Game mechanics

Exploration in the snowy landscape is standart. Nothing new really. As for the frozen forest, the events where you jump to an elevated ground and use it to dodge ennemies is really well made, hope you'll find some more exploration mechanics like that (maybe switch from deployed character to perform special movement skills ? That could be cool).

The combat mechanics are the weakest aspect in the game in my opinion unfortunately. Not saying it's bad, but weird. In combat you got the special habilities which cost consummables to perform. That's in fact a clever idea, but we get so much ammo for everything that you got no ammo managment to make and just spam the same attacks over and over again (only exception being Yarunna since she got a special attack that cost TP and not consummables). There are ways to balance it and make special abilities more special than just being regular attacks. Here are some ideas :

1 – You could add an ability usage limit for a fight and remove the ammo consummables (it can make inventory managment easier with less items).

2 – You can add a cooldown for each ability while keeping the consummables system, so you can't spam it at all time.

3 – Add the ability usage limit, not removing the ammo consummables but adding a rearm ability to make the fight be more intesting and adapting your tactics for each fights (maybe even bound the rearm capacity to a new support character?)

The second issue I have with combat is the scaling and how weak the player character (PC) feels like. At the beginning of the game you got the PC and Yoyo. Both are at the same level but Yoyo is just better at every stats. This does not make any sense since the player is in a tank which is geared to withstand the hardest the ennemies smashing at it. It should have more HP than anyone else (and for god sakes, it got an energy shield! Give it at least a support ability to increase global defense of the party). At the opposite, you got Yarunna. She got decent abilities that consist not to lobotomize yourself and keep attacking and that's the only reason I like her... definitively... I swear.

The issue is her scaling. I understand that everything in her physic means STRENGTH, but she currently act as a damage dealer and a tank even tho her defense is below average and can't be increased. I see that he vision was to make her some kind of a glass canon. This is unfortunately unbalanced due to her HP scaling and her regeneration per turn capacity that overshadows her ability to eat during fight. What I would do is :

  • decrease her HP scaling
  • remove the effect of her extra equipment that heals her each turn and turn its effect into an HP bonus
  • modify the eat ability by adding the regeneration bonus for X turns

Overall, this game is fantastic and I hope to see more of it :)

I hopped my feedback helped you in any ways. If it is, I might do multiple feedbacks for the next updates.

(1 edit) (+2)

Thanks for the valuable feed back and the kind words! Much appreciate!

I keep throwing ammo to the players because I don't want the game to be too hard, but noted will definitely make adjustment.

Eh Yarunna is tankish? Some player complaint she is too easy to die especially the last battle if Virone are not recruited. Will looking into it and thanks for the suggestion!

i feel like a good character that could add a more unique roll would be a sorta hyper tank character, maybe with a regen ability, but next to no offensive prowess, just a absolute unit at taking damage, but not dealing ANYTHING back, maybe even a 'taunt' ability that doubles the chance of enemies to lock onto him instead, so your party isn't totally safe, but he can keep a lot more heat off the rest of your units

(+3)

I'm just gonna say what everyone is thinking. NSFW DLC when?

(+2)

Sorry...

(+1)

Damn. btw for some reason I was looking at adult tags, and this popped up. I dunno if that was an unintentional error on itch.io cause it has been a bit wonky lately. However from what I heard this game is actually really well made and has nice dialogue to go with it. I may try it out one day. I'll give out what I think if I end up trying out the game. 

(+1)

Probably the furry tag

(+1)

you should try this game out, it's really good so far... can't wait til we get more content

(+1)

I really like this game and hope the Chinese version can also be updated to the latest version

Thanks for playing!

Next update will be english and chinese together at the same time.

(+4)

Nice game! Although i wanna ask, with all the size diff content, will there by any size change content in the future? I'm sure a lot of us would like to see these big gals get even bigger <3

(+1)

Thanks for playing!

Sorry no planing for size change and growth. But will add more big girls in the future.

(+1)

this game is awesome, and I seriously can't wait for the full thing!

(+1)

WOAH WAIT WHAT THIS WAS MADE IN RPGM??? HOLY SHIT I DIDNT KNOW THIS LOOKS SO GOOD

Yea

(+3)

the thumbnail got me here, what can i say am a sucker for boobs

Who doesn't?

Warning, a rather stupidly long comment about an hour long demo and most likely missing the game's point.

 Good game, not great but very high potential. Although not a fan of "guy with beautiful women go to adventure" troupe, I enjoy the story for most of the time. I like the fact that in cutscenes or in rest, the members do exist even without talking. I also like about it's simplicity yet intriguing story, knowing well when to just go right into it, when to long story chatting and when to let the player find the story by themselves. The story also have good "wall" between funny quirky time with the girls and serious life threatening situation. It's probably just me high on coffee when playing this game but jokes are funny, even though sometime it didn't try to be joking ( WHY AM I SO FUCKING SHORT)

 And for someone who enjoy rpgmaker combat I say this game combat fine.It remind of Lisa and it's fangames, where it's repetitive yet still feel engaging. I believe I learn most of characters traits from combat, which mean you try to put characteristics in their combat animations, which is good.

Loot from battle is fine. Art is marvelous. Some enemies are interesting. Choice of location is legendary.

Can't wait for more.

 Critiques or opinions, but i believe these could be set aside by the fact its very early version and what kind of exactly this game is and the fact I am stupid, but since I wish this game have great success in the end, I dont care:

1) Skills limited by resources is good idea, as these people are not from the planet mean they have limited resources. However, the resources are abundance which remove the "limiting" aspect. I suggest to downgrade most of the scavenge reward from ammo to money or useless items that only can be sold. Equipment scavenge reward however is fine. HOWEVER, this maybe by the fact I bought alot of ammunition from the tree merchant.

2) Map enemies are sparse. I suggest increase the frequency of battle in there, but don't too much.

3) Most grouped enemies are too simple to fight especially when Virone is in the party. I suggest putting down high priority enemy in group and lower mass attack damage. Like holy damn I could one shot them with Virone attack.

4) I never sold an item, it's probably my frugal habit in RPGmaker games but most reward money (battle, scavenge, quest) can be the budget for basically everything. Kinda sad because it could be monster hunting type where monsters drop their special reward that could be sell, but that is my opinion.

I straying too far. I believe it would be still great game even nothing really change. I am probably going to regret writing this and please just ignore if it make you mad. Tq.

(+2)

Why would I feel mad? This is very valuable feed back! Thank you!

1-Yea some player already state this issue, I keep throwing ammo to the players because i fear they will be put off if lack of ammo or the difficulty are too high. Noted and will be adjust.


2,3,4 - Noted and will be adjust.

Thanks again for playing and your valuable input!

(+1)

I think the best option for 1 would be to have a sort of easy / hard mode. it doesn't need to be too complicated, just reducing how much ammo you find would be good so then players can have a choice, but ideally you could do something like how Terraria (if you know what that is) handles expert mode, in that bosses are harder but they drop powerful / gimmicky items. maybe I'm putting too much thought into this though lol

I give a lot of ammo to player because I don't want the demo to be too hard, will definitely adjust amount of ammo in the future version. 

Not sure will make difficulty mode but planning to put in a lot of hidden bosses.

Thanks for playing and the feedback!

(+1)

yeah, neato. If you're going to have secret bosses then I don't reckon a difficulty mode is necessary, especially if finding them feels as rewarding as finding the hidden bunker without a guide. Love the game so far, it's definitely one of my favourite size games already!

(+2)

1.7 review: 

Absolutely wonderful! 

Only thing I dislike is that it doesn't matter what armor or weapon you chose, the models will stay the same. At least make optional change of appearance please. 

Would be also cool to have some romantic time with these girls, but it is totally okay if it's not about that. 


Also I did not find the Key for that forrest bird thing. But it's okay. 

(1 edit) (+1)

Thanks for playing!

May consider adding option to change appearance of some characters. But no changing outlook for each equipment that's too much work for a 1 man dev >_<"

Romance option so far are Yarunna, Yoyo, Autumn,Yaz and maybe Virone. Working on the hot spring scenes at the moment after that will start working on dating. Romance only really start after the demo in the main story stage.

Thanks again for the feedback. Much appreciate!

https://streamable.com/f07b05

(+1)

Yeah I already found that key by that time.


Would be AWESOME to have size difference sequences between girls, either have MC romancing all of them at the same time or maybe just girls themeselves go down on each other. But size difference is a must, I am telling you! Missed opportunity if no size difference in romance.  


I understand. Damn, 1 man. You putting to shame most game companies.  Honestly am impressed. 

(+2)

As stated in my review, love how this game works, looks, and feels. Excellent job. Hope to see more asap. :D 

(+1)

Thank you so much, this is really encouraging. Thank you!

(+2)

welcome! hope to see more, as I'm very excited by this game.

(+2)

will there ever be nudity added?

(1 edit)

Sorry no nipples and out right fucking. Will add romance, teasing, slut wear. Sex scene will be like Mass effect 2.

Planning to add hot spring like the one in Muramasa rebirth

(+1)

That's amazing.

how do you get to the mana art users' hideout that is hinted to you?

also loved it cant wait for more

https://streamable.com/9le5va

In Pine Grave there is a place where it falls high, in the bottom there is a hidden wall.

Go in grab the key from the locker then go open the gate.

Glad you like the game, cheers!

Dam thx for the help
