Hi im wondering if anyone knows of a work around for the fact 32bit apk's like this one for android arent supported on 64bit samsung s24 ultra. 

(+3)

I am loving this game! I stumbled on it by chance and I can't stop playing it. It is fun, sexy and absolutely hilarious at times. Please, keep up the good work!

(+2)(-1)

Thank you very much for the compliments my friend, I'm glad you enjoyed it ^_^

(+1)

hey there, i have a quick question, have a paid version? i'm new in itchi.io and still learning how it work here hehe XD

(1 edit) (+1)

Yes, there is Braford's patreon which has the most updated version which is 1.75

(1 edit) (+1)

I discovered this game recently, I'm liking the result, I hope they continue since they've been in production for almost 5 years, but one curiosity kkkk will we have hotter scenes in the future? be it from other characters, or even the main one?


But just a genuine question, do you intend to add sounds to hot scenes? Or will they just be animated scenes?

(+3)

Thanks a lot man! I'm glad you liked our project ^_^
The main character have 2 hot scenes as well, the latest of them in the current patreon version 1.75.
And the total dev time so far is 6 years and counting ^_^

(+1)

That's really a lot of dedication, I hope your goals are met lol because mine were and I'm looking forward to the future of the game, this game has been keeping me hooked for almost 2 weeks and I still haven't finished it lol I love long games like this that have an engaging story, I wish the best for you and for future updates.

Very interesting Patreon hehe

(+1)

Thank you very much !!!

(+2)

Right now I don't have plans to add sound to the scenes aside from the music or other fx because that'd add a big load of extra work to an already loaded schedule, sorry about that.

(1 edit) (+1)

No problem, it was just a question of mine. I'm sure that even without it, you did a great job kkk

(+1)

Thanks a lot again ^_^

(+1)

I love this game, and all the characters in it. It always makes me happy when i see an update.

(+2)

Thank you very much man! I'm glad you enjoyed it ^_^

(+1)

just hoping and asking, does this game focus on Julian who loves 1 person and his job at the GYM? Or... we can choose someone to like? such as whose route will be followed.

(+3)

Howlies Miaw10,
We plan to have Julian experience multiple routes in the future.  Thank you for playing our game; more content is coming  =3

(+2)

That's a really interesting thing to hear, I hope everything is going well :) and that you guys in production are doing well.

(+1)

Very good 

(+2)

i cant wait for moore, i'm in love with this game. Thx for your amazing job here!

(+2)

Thank you very much, my friend. I'm glad you liked it ^_^

What is the current version of the game and where can I find it?And if you have what you have again 

(1 edit) (+1)

Hello, it is showing as an unsupported application If anyone can help me I would appreciate it I would really like to j Play my cell phone and a xiaomi poco 

(+1)

Howlies Mikewolfsansfreddy,  chances are you may need to go into your phone's settings in order to allow it to run renpy apps.  I'm sorry for the inconvenience, unfortunately I have no other solutions to help.  Please let us know if this helps resolve any issues you're having.

(+1)

Hi Wolf star I just tried to install both wolfstar and house of beef today on my Samsung Galaxy tablet and it says incompatible with phone as well which is weird for me because the past few updates I have been able to read wolfstar no problem on my previous Samsung Galaxy and this one a little bit

(+1)

It's possible that this may be a download issue. 
Something to try:  restore the previous version, verify that it works, then attempt to save over the file with the new update.

Please let us know if this resolves the issue you're having.  I am not well versed in APK files, and even less knowledgeable in regards to troubleshooting problems with Tablets.

(+1)

The only way I can do that is go all the way back to you old old artwork file for wolfstar and I don't know about House of beef and I don't even know if that will work and I'm really sad that it's just having to do this because I hope fix a glitch a while back and wanted to know what all happened after it's been a while sorry for improper English my Google speech to text Goes Goofy a lot

(+1)

I wonder if Julian will ever get buff 🤔 

(+1)

We can hope.  He has been seen working out in the gym in the game   x3

(+1)

Apk states it isn't compatible with fold 6, there's probably an issue in the manifest.

(+1)

Howlies Kofuku,
Thank you for your interest in our game, and especially for sending in a bug message.  We're sorry for any inconvenience you've been experiencing;  any chance you could send us a screenshot of this issue?  If there are any messages, we maybe able to isolate and find a solution.

(+1)

this is all it gives me.  I had it installed previously on the fold 4.

(+1)

I get the same error message on Galaxy A24.

(+1)

copy/paste message, hope this works for you, good luck.

1)  Possible  issue with Google's Android operating system. To fix the “your device is not compatible with this version” error message, try clearing the Google Play Store cache, and then data. Next, restart the Google Play Store and try installing the app again.   (source:  People also ask "How do I fix the app isn't compatible with my phone?" on Google search )


2)  Check for updates in Settings > System > Software Update to ensure your device has the latest software. (source:  People also ask on Google search )

(+1)

Hi there. Tried and failed. Still get the same error message. I have the latest android update installed.

(+1)

It's unfortunate, but this maybe a situation that cannot be resolved.  The version of Renpy that I use to code is likely not caught up with the life cycle of apps and computer systems.  There are some things you can still try:

1)  Possible  issue with Google's Android operating system.
To fix the “your device is not compatible with this version” error message, try clearing the Google Play Store cache, and then data. Next, restart the Google Play Store and try installing the app again.

2)  Check for updates in Settings > System > Software Update to ensure your device has the latest software.

(source:  People also ask on Google search )


Please let us know if either of these methods work.  APK files are not my specialty at all; and I've no skills in troubleshooting anything that deals with phones.

(+1)

I noticed a message saying this app was designed for an older version of the operating system.

(+1)

I have also tried installing version 1,4 and 1,5 and now they as well show above message and then it couldnt install as my phone is not compatible. Maybe the issue is with the latest Android update?

(+1)

hi i really need someone to talk with about this game, i just finished it and i have a lot to ask 

(+3)(-1)

Howdy there! Just reminding you that the tag "sex" does NOT add a sensitive content warning to your project, so it is visible even to those who don't have "show sensitive content" turned on!

(+3)

hadn't noticed but dang almost 4 years in the making huh 

(+6)

I cannot believe how time flies; it's been an amazing time, and I'm excited to continue working more  =3

(1 edit) (+2)

It is recommended to use the "JoiPlay" app for Android, which can run Ren'Py games on Android well  : )

(+2)

JoiPlay eh, I'll have to look more into this.  Thank you BOBO for the info.

(+2)

Do not work on Android. So sad ! Please update your game. I have pixel 7 pro. I can't play 😭

(+1)(-2)

There's a way to install the game on Android 14 phones. Make sure you have ADB installed. Here's the least bullshit guide to install ADB on Windows: https://theflutterist.medium.com/setting-up-adb-path-on-windows-android-tips-5b5...

Thank you kindly for the link, kuni   =3

I'm hungry... So hungry for more... Damn!!!!

Hi, apologies if this isn't the right place to ask this. But I tried downloading the newest update, but it wouldn't download. Whenever I tried it would give me this error message.

I really enjoy your games, but if this issue of not being able to download the game persists, I'll most likely have to stop playing and delete the game entirely. Which is something I strongly don't want to do.

Is there anything you can suggest that can help?

(+1)

Howlies Ryujin,
we're sorry for any inconvenience you've experienced; apk troubleshooting is not a skill that I have.  There are options to try out according to this link  https://www.fonecope.com/there-was-a-problem-parsing-the-package.html

Please let us know if this resolves your issue or not.

(+1)

The APK must've been corrupted during download. Can happen sometimes even when you finished downloading the file. Suggest you to try redownload the game. This happens a lot when downloading big files.

(+1)

We'll do our best to keep the game size small.  Thank you for the information    =3

(+1)

Hey Wolf star I have a question I know you technically updated s i n s and Paradise but I just wanted to double check something to you put the fix in for hypers picture showing up for is this the man you love in the Wonderland m azè and I do have a question for this one as well is there really only one or two love interest for this one because I love the main character but I don't get it falls in love a random bear just my opinion I know don't get me wrong I still love this one too

(+2)

Love that this is is the only VN that has a apk that is there just for show. Every update I try to see if it will finally work and to this day that apk for this VN is just for show. To whomever gets it to work you are the lucky ones

(+2)(-1)

Apk aint workin for Android 14 phones. Error says the game is not compatible with the phone.

Chuck taking over and getting rid of the the choices was pretty funny, i've never seen that in a visual novel before, unless you count Doki Doki Literature Club, good job guys, could say I had a good Chuck-le... <.<

(1 edit) (+1)

 WHAT THE F.... i just played the previous update (on the same phone of course) and now when i download it this happened

(+1)

Howlies DaisukeUD,
This situation seems quite odd to us as well.  By all accounts, the app should still function as normal.  It may have something to do with our recent update of renpy's keys.  As a possible solution, have you already attempted to remove the older version and re-download the current package once more?

(+1)

I downloaded the update again (remove and redownload the game) and nothing happened

(+1)

Ah, that's no good.  Afraid I don't have any more suggestions to resolve the issue other than checking renpy on reddit for solutions.  My apologies for the inconvenience.

(1 edit) (+1)

no no it's okay *crying on my pillow* , i'll just wait for next upsate and see if it will works

Can this game switch to other languages?

(+1)

Not at this time.

(+2)

Why'd it have to end there. XD I wanted to see more!


Great job with the update!

(+1)

I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL!!!  OMG!!!!   x3
Thank you so much for playing this month's update Bobby; hope to see ya for the next one  =3

(+1)

Oh, you will. I really enjoy this story.

(+1)

that was so mean! just kidding , but ending the update with the 4th wall tease? nicely done !

loved the update, it awakened the butterflies . 

(+1)

Many thanks man! I'm glad you liked it. And well, I like cliffhangers so there's a lot of that between updates as well ^_^ 

(+1)

thx for the updates as always UWU

(+2)

Howlies!
You're welcome Miaw10!  Thank you for playing HoB   x3

(+1)

does this game have a guide pr routes anything?

(+2)

Hey wolf star long time no talk I just had a weird feeling about another visual novel you work on I know I put this there but hard to go searching for it s i n s and Paradise I was starting to question if you're ever going to go back to it it's fine if you don't and just really like Wolf star and hyper which by the way I'm still surprised when you going to the maze portion of the story to get into Wonderland their prison that doesn't show the picture of hyper on his phone when asking is this the man you love

(+3)

Howlies silverwilde,
Trust me, you've nothing to worry about with Sins and Paradise, I'm still creating monthly updates on Patreon.  Public builds are returning soon to itchio too.  I'm so glad to hear that you've enjoyed playing that visual novel.  I'll have to revisit that Wonderland maze for the Hyper phone picture.  Thank you for the message!   =3

(+1)

Okay I just found it really interesting that the question just showed Wolf star looking at his phone

(+2)

Why can't itch.io download it?Can I only download it on the website?

When installing, this message "Risky app blocked House of Beef This app is designed for an older version of Android and does not include the latest privacy protections Installing this app may put your device at risk. Learn more about Play Protect. Install anyway", and then "As the app is not compatible with your smartphone, it was not installed.". My cell phone is a Galaxy A14 5G (SM-A146M/DS). What is the solution to this problem?

This may boil down to the game size being over 2GB.  We have since reduced the size in later apk builds.  Hopefully this will resolve any further install issues; we apologize for any inconvenience.

Thanks for the answer. I hope that in the next update I will be able to install it, as my cell phone says that it only works on older versions of Android.

There is a way to bypass install it, check latest comment I posted here.

Thanks Kuni! I'll try.😊

Hi, apologies if this has already been asked, but the android apk file for the game won't download. It keep rejecting it stating that it is "not compatible woth your device". I've tried everything I can think of but it still won't download the new update for the game. Despite it having never been an issue before. Was curious if there's a solution or way to download the new update without issues of such.

You maybe suffering from the same issue with the game's overall file size being too big for the phone.  Later versions are smaller now, so this should resolve the problem.  

Hi, thanks for the reply back and I really appreciate it. Unfortunately that's not the issue it seems, it doesn't acept it despite working with every update until this one. This version and the latest in your other game WSAP both have the same issue of it rejecting the .apk file stating "App not installed as it is not compatible with your device". Despite it being the device I've always used without issues, an S21 Ultra+.

Check latest comment, I found a solution.

(+1)

For Android users

I tried downloading it 2 times, and the last moment when you download it to your phone, just stay there (chrome download) and don't disconnect from the internet and wait. 

P/s I just downloaded the game  and hope you can also download it.  If you follow along and still can't download it, I'm very sorry

(2 edits) (+1)

i am unable to download on the itch.io app on PC

(+1)

Howlies NovaKittyOwO,

We apologize for any inconvenience, however there seems to be a solution.
From a user who goes by the name of 3hoursonly:
"You can still download it via the ITCH website. (Take the url from the bar in the itch client and access the itch page of this game in your browser."

Please let us know if this resolves the problem.

(+1)

Can do, and im definitely willing to go that route.

the only issue with that however is that id have to start a new game from scratch. Downloading from the website vs the app, has the issue of saves not carrying over. the app creates a file specific for those saves, but ive never figured out how to take the new update from the website and force the itch.io app to use the new update.

for now, ill download anyhow off the website, but please do let me know if you discover a way to resolve the issue with the App and this most recent update.

(+1)

The game can't be updated automatically because the platforms are not set for each file. That's something the developers have to do for each new version.

the platforms for the *-pc.zip file are windows and linux, android for the apk file and apple for the -mac.zip file.


Meanwhile,  to transfer your saves from the old to the new version, you can copy the game\saves folder into the new version folder.

(+2)

All of them so hot :>

(+3)

As some others stated, the download wont finish on Android. It gets flagged as forbbiden at the last minute.

(+1)

When will this game release a new update? I'm waiting so long for new update!

(+3)

Howlies Voibei,
We update the public build once a month; at this time our next release date will approx be on March 13th.  Thank you for the support and for trying out our game   =3

(+1)

Thank for reply! I'll waiting 💙✨
