Play in Browser


Troubleshooting

When downloading the standalone version, make sure to extract the game to its own folder instead of running directly from the ZIP file. If you don't do so, any saves made will be lost the next time you run the game. (Saves are in the "www" > "save" folder; if downloading a new version, transfer this folder to keep your saves.)

By default, the browser version will load resources as they are used, resulting in images appearing late (depending on download speed). If you wish to fix this at the cost of longer loads between scenes, enable Preload Images in Options.
