@hero_taro In the first post of this thread you can find a link to the Walkthrough/FAQ page.
Your problem is described in the FAQ there, together with a way to remedy the issue.

where can I download version 0.8

1 Like

0.7 is the most up to date version of the game available to the public. 0.8 is a closed version of the game not available to the public there’s no place to download it.

If you’re still having issues let me know I should be able to get you a working save provided you’re on windows os. But yes as @Bladerune9 indicted there are some fixes for the “call Alice bug” listed in my walkthrough/FAQ.

As usual, @Krodmandoon is correct. 0.8.0 is a private test version of the game - purely to troubleshoot the restructured code and the new additions to the game.

There’d be no point in publicly releasing it anyway. It’s a lot shorter than 0.7.

so,there is no 0.8 version for the public?

That’s correct. Although 0.8.0 will probably form the basis of a new demo at some stage as it goes up to the same point as the original demo version - The breakup scene with Alice where she asks if you’re a feeder, but also adds all the new content up to that point.

9 times out of 10 a blatant scam site would have to be delisted by the hosting service or at the DNS. Asking a scammer to take something down is like pissing in the wind.

Sometimes… but I’ve had success in the past simply by emailing and asking them to remove my copyrighted work (and casually mentioning that if they refuse, I’ll get my lawyer on the case - which is a total bluff, but they don’t know that :stuck_out_tongue: ).

edit I also sent the emails from my Tiggertoo email address, which lends credence to my claim to be the copyright holder.

Loving the amount of three-day weekends we’re having in the UK right now!

I’ve got a lot done in the last day and a bit :slight_smile: Doesn’t quite feel like the 14 hour days I used to put in most weekends, but it’s close!

Also had a really cool idea for a one off scene. May take a break from coding to do a few test renders for it (and to finish some renders for Patreon) to see if it’s doable…

Welcome to weight gaming @h12222. Unfortunately it’s against the guidelines of the forum to ask for an update from a developer. Check the FAQ for details.

Third times the charm eh :smiley:

I am a Python developer, and I think the way this game is made is super cool and unique,

Are there any secrets/skills/specifics that make developing this masterpiece possible? I’d love to get involved with a project like this :slight_smile:

Are there any other games similar to this? :slight_smile:

In some ways The Weighting Game is unique being a bit of a first, and having a developer who also has skills in rendering the artwork in Daz and also writes good characters. It has inspired quite a few others.

The underpinning engine is Ren’Py which is a mix of its own scripting language and Python, and implemented in Python. There are quite a few games here that use it and very many unconnected with out particular fetish. It is free and open source if you want to try it out. If may also be worth looking at #project-help.

As @dingotush says, a few people have been kind enough to say that my game inspired them to create their own. Although I suspect a few of these games came about simply because they got fed up of waiting for me to ever finish the Weighting Game (ETA, sometime in January 2097).

@h12222 there aren’y really any secrets or skills to creating my game. Just a hell of a lot of trial and error, and even more luck that I managed to create something that most people seem to enjoy :slight_smile:

As for other games, there are plenty. Many of them almost certainly (I’ve not played any fetish games since I started work on mine) better than this one.

Ren’py is a pretty easy language to pick up. If I can use it, pretty much anyone can!

So I got to the point where Alice breaks up with you. Is that the end of the game as of right now, Is there more that I’m missing?
