Done with Shuten Order!
I know this is the third time I been saying this, but it needs to be said louder for the people in the back...
HOW THE HELL AREN'T MORE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THIS GAME?
I went through such an emotional finale, I shed a couple tears! Game some issues, but it's so good! 🧵

Started a recently released vn called shuten order which is apparently a kodaka vn and....
based on the 3 routes I played, but ESPECIALLY this one I just got done...
I don't understand why not more people talk about it, this vn is absolute cinema

Game is better than 3, loved the combat mechanics and the characters, story is more interesting (but fucking confusing and bullshit in flow)...
but it's nowhere close the quality I had from 0, k1 and k2
was least annoying to 100%!

Kind of gives me the vibe they were in a hurry, but yeah. Also, since Bug Fables is unity 2018.4, only 2 of the 4 arguments mentioned matters: -overrideMonoSearchPath and -monoProfiler
here's the ghidra diff, left is vanilla, right is patched
Does it change anything with modding?
no...

That's as high as it can go with just unit tests for the bootstrap. FINALLY I WON'T NEED TO BOOT THE GAME EVERYTIME TO TEST BASIC STUFF!
Next is cleaning up those tests (cause they're ugly to read) and then do an integration test so I have everything covered :)

It's very MelonLoader based, but it's more extensible and has the essentials :D

I somehow got VenusRootLoader to load UnityExplorer with it seemingly working except the autocompleter, I didn't expect it would go this far!

After almost 200 hours, I have 100%ed 100 lines, all 100 endings and stuff
This game's fucking good. It was INSANELY ambitious and it freaking delivered. It has SO MUCH shit in it, it didn't felt like you bought a game, it felt like you bought a game, its sequel and 10+ spinoffs in one
it's crazy!

I 100%ed the new somnium files game last night
It is a very 6/10 okay game which is very disappointing. While Data's usual shit gives very funny dialogues and the escape rooms puzzles are nice (when the game doesn't forces hints on you)
The plot just sucks and it feels they padded 90% of the game

I noticed something interesting and @lyghtt.bsky.social you probably want to check this too because you'll like this and want to pay attention
This is steam charts for bf over the last few weeks. For reference, the steam sales started on June 26, but bf+ released on July 3

I just found that the hexagons transitions in bug fables are broken. You can't see this in game, but their termination condition are incorrect and it results in the coroutine dangling leaving the 10 hexagons sprites objects present when they should have been destroyed

I certainly didn't expect within 24 hours of attempts to get a full CI running on UnityExplorer with an improved build system. It's the second attempt and last one took me days to get somewhere, but I think I improved it A LOT more this time!
Gonna be a good fork :)

Did you know those dials were there in front of the fridge?
I didn't until now!
Also, it's yet another clever asset reuse because those dials are from the oven map :)

welp, we will no longer know about private branch pushes to bug fables
Valve has been spreading a change to games where private branches no longer shows up in their public api so steamdb can't track them anymore
It means we will no longer know if an update will happen :(

There's one thing that I learned from the holo rendering investigations: rendering multiple transparent objects in front of each other and especially if they overlap is a FUCKING PAIN IN THE ASS!
Left is vanilla, this is what I was trying to fix
right is with a shader fix
TRANSPARENCY IS HELL!

Someone reported this specific issue in bug fables
You would think it's part of the update right?
NO THIS ONE WAS LIKELY THERE SINCE DAY 1!
He actually is frozen, but he never was formally inflicted. Due to an error, when he summons the clones, he makes their conditions refers to the same list!
