itch.io

I'm using Linux (Pop_OS), so I'm not sure the info below is that helpful, if at all, under Windows. The tools are the following:

poppler-utils (specifically pdftocairo to convert the PDF to .jpg files), and then imagemagick (to convert the image files to a full PDF again).

Here are examples:

pdftocairo -jpeg ThousandYearOldVampire_SinglePages.pdf "[path to new folder containing output images]"

convert [above path]/*.jpg [destination/ouput].pdf

I'm not sure it's the simplest way to go, but at least it works.

I could just send you the files I've made this way? I haven't double-checked them but they look OK.

It is indeed! Thanks!

(sidenote: I've tried to speed PDF loading up and found that converting into a pure image-based PDF is a good balance between aesthetics and usability)

When hitting download, I'm sent to a page with two versions: ThousandYearOldVampire_2ndPrinting_Spreads.pdf (Aug 21 2020) and ThousandYearOldVampire_2ndPrinting_SinglePagesVer1p21.pdf (Sept 14 2020).

No sign of a third version! Am I missing something? I double checked my purchase email and it just sends me back there.

Hi Tim!
Similarly to Snorklebob's request below, could you add a plain text version for Itchio's customers?
As much as I love the graphical presentation (amazing work, really), I find the PDF cumbersome to use at times, mostly due to slow loading (my PC is, well, not a thousand years old, but it's getting long in the tooth!)

Excellent! And very daring design-wise given it's your first game, and it pays off emotionally. This is typically why I like smaller games like yours. Experiences. Keep up the good work!

(I noticed one text error though: when you look at the plants in the room with the fireplace, the character says 'pants')

A very interesting topic, and efficient gameplay and videos to convey it, which I'll certainly mention to other people. This type of experience is really welcome. Good luck for th next part!
