A collection of heartfelt stories, all that build feelings of goodwill. The positivity is welcome, and the vibrant visuals support the narrative immensely. In this case, it's not just the character portraits or the backgrounds, and the cg scenes that are impressive. What really stood out to me was the animations given to the text. Emotion and emphasis are delivered with much more impact as the colors shift, words slam in bold, or shake with fear. That kind of per-word nuance is normally hard to get without voice acting. The blackjack variant is a fun diversion and integrated with the story well. The karaoke doesn't hit the same. The music assists in the late night bar ambience. On the sound side, the only thing I can nitpick is that Kasen's "voice" is too squeaky high!
Hello. So anything after the first screen is all a white screen to me. Dialog does seem to play as I blindly press LMB. I tried both Win64 and Win32 versions. (Also I'm curious about what causes this, I suspect I'm an isolated case)
Hello. Can you go to "C:\Users\[YourUserName]\AppData\LocalLow\Heart of the Tiger Team\Heart of the Tiger" and send the log file?
I located it, how should I send it?
Send a Google Drive/MEGA link
Were there any other logs in the folder?
Thanks for jumping in so soon! (What caused this white screen anyway?)
But now I have another issue - the 2nd minigame just breaks ಠ_ಠ
Oh yeah; you can use the chapter select to skip back to the start of chapter 2 if you want.
Thanks again and sorry for the bother. This one didn't quite work well neither, this minigame still softlocks everything...
