Re;Roundbound: Gaining for a Goddess

This redux update to Roundbound is spectacular. Having played the previous version to completion, I was surprised just how much was still different or new coming back to do it again. The general story may not have advanced much from the last time I played (just beginning to get to the next zone from the end of Famitu), but everything that’s already there has a wonderful fresh coat of paint, from the models and artwork to the feel of the game itself.

I might be conflating this game with another game, but I feel like the volcano island had at least an early version in a previous iteration? In which case I’m curious what the new version will look like, but I could be completely incorrect and be remembering a different volcanic island from an entirely different expansion RPG maker game.

Nonetheless I’m very pleased with the game’s redesign and I look forward to seeing the final two chapters (I assume based on the incomplete Bad End Crystal pens) as they’re put together.

Very, VERY LATE in the story, when you reach content that is close to end of the game, you are going to be able to visit weight gain dojo, instead of focusing on “main quest”
If you want to know exactly when that happens -
once you finish casino questline in desert city and leave the city follow main story, you will encounter building that’s weight gain dojo. If you talk with owner and do some quests, you will unlock blob weight stage level.
Although i don’t know if you need to eat in dojo to reach blob stage, or if you can do that in other places too.

Bug report: Athena disappeared after the Clare quest.

How do I fix this in the new rework?

Is that the quest with the cave and password and the doorway to the alternate dimension which is just modern/present day Earth? Cause I wondered what would happen if Athena is brought to there as well if she had any lines/reactions.

No. it’s Clare’s encounter with the question obsessed witch. It was an issue with the old game that apparently has persisted into the new one. I’m just not sure how to fix it.

Strange I never had that issue in the old game but maybe it’s because I did that quest before obtaining Athena. If you are not given an answer I’d recommend reloading to an earlier save.

Just old bug that haven’t fix yet, either is it forget. Anyway, that stuff you were supposed to go first before get Athena.

It definitely SHOWS! Great stuff like always!


so my screen just turned completely white after I fattened 2 of the nymph enemies at the place where you get the fruits that let you become blob. I can still hear the music and robin bumping against a wall when i press the arrow keys and I can still open and see the menu. but no matter what I do this white screen won’t go away I tried restarting the game as well as redownloading it and transferring my save folder but nothing works and I really don’t want to start a new game

That happened to me as well. I got around it by defeating the nymphs and entering another battle against the nymphs. After that, just fatten them up and it should clear out.

Indeed it is old, it’s from the prior demo of the game after all. I was hoping it would be fixed in the new build, but I suppose that’s going to need to wait.

To ask a brief question, how many bloatberries are there?

Just found out the option menu of the chef in Weight gain Dojo got multiply

Preface: This current update is my first experience of the game.

Pros:
-The sheer amount of ladies that you can fatten up is exquisite. That this is essentially the direct purpose of the game is just deliciously, how to say, pure of intent. The ones you do so to directly are great, and the ones whom fatten up themselves in the background as you progress make the impression you really are dramatically changing the world.
-The Characters so far are all at least entertaining, with interesting dynamics and backstory to them.
-The Level of fatness you can inflict upon the ladies of the world, of the leading ladies themselves is magnificent. And I cannot praise the sprite artists enough for the Blob sprites.

Cons:
-Dudes. That is all. I have a visceral gut-level revulsion to fat guys and seeing them included in the gaining is a fly on an otherwise beautiful sundae. Minor complaint on the whole because there are not many of them and one can be ignored.
-Bugs: I made an honest attempt to play the game without ‘cheating’ but because the Green weight level is bugged I lost the first boss fight when I was otherwise doing really well. I since experienced every bug that has been brought up in the comments above, white-out screen in the desert, Athena vanishing from the party… the latter ones were annoyances, the first one turned me off from even attempting to play the game normally. Grenade go Brr.

Quibbles:
-I do understand in certain points of the game being forced to slim down characters, but the Beach of all places? No pass for being too fat for clothes at lv 5 weight?
-Do we really need to lose weight on Resting? I can see that Very early in the game before Pii exists, but after that point it’s just an impediment to traversing the world at the desired weight stage.
-Related to the above, I probably backtracked to the Ghost House 10 or so times to get the girls back to max fatness. Maybe I’m just cheap, but compared to paying for food elsewhere?

All in all was a great experience. And I appreciated the nod to the other ‘big games’ on Weightgaming in the ‘Pizza Hut.’

Also I need help with this quest because I don’t know where the heck is Seafoam Gulf

As far as I know, that’s not in the game yet.

Currently stuck here and have no idea what I need to do

Go right. You should then see the metal bars and golden ore boxes. After interacting with both, you’ll need to find a key, and a snack. You’ll also need to answer a riddle.
