Game Crashed AGAIN. Lost 5 hours of gameplay.

I did not get very far into this game when it crashed.

Game crashed with message "Script 'Game Interpreter" line 450, No Method Error Occured".
Undefined method 'x' for nil:Nil Class:

Do you have a screenshot please? I'll send it to the devs.

Here is the screenshot. It has the exact error message that I have already written above.!!!

Game is so happy crashing, and that is why I asked you if you have tested it!!!
Even as a publisher, you should not just published blindly any game without the simple courteosy of even launching it or doing minimal testing.

[Aldorlea Games]

Is that upon launch? Dev said to me they tried it and it worked.
I am even the one who provided them with the betatest keys.

[Jargonaut]

Not on launch, but somewhere within the first hour.

[Aldorlea Games]

Can you indicate the exact location please? Maybe a screenshot just before it happens?
It will be helpful for Crow's Perch to fix it.

Greetings,

I am the game's creator. I'm sorry for you troubles, can you point me the exact moment that message pops up so we can work on fixing that issue, please?

[Jargonaut]

I played the game late last night before I went to bed. The crash occured somewhere near the beginning of the game, but I cannot recall the exact moment the message pop up. I have taken and posted a screenshot and the error message says line 450.

I was upset because of the crash and the fact that the game was release when the achievements were not working. I was also disappointed that there was little testing done to ensure that the achievements were working before release. An easy test would be to play the game for 15 minutes to make sure that the achievements were OK.

Once again, my apology for not being able to pin point the exact moment the crash occurs. I have also overwritten the save file, so it is not easy for me to try to reproduce the crash at this time.

[Crow]

But after getting the crash for the first time you resumed work and did not experience it again?

[Jargonaut]

Yes, and loading the autosave file caused another crash so I restarted the game from scratch. Started New Game and played from the beginning again.

[Crow]

What other crash was that? The same error message?

[Jargonaut]

Yes, I had the same error message when I reload the auto save file, and played from there. It crashed. That is why I had to play a New Game instead.

[Jargonaut]

OK, this is really bad.

Today, after 5 hours of game play, Black River Crashed again.

Here are the details.
Location of Crash is inside the pit, near the fountain, and the screenshot just before the crash is

The crash has exactly the same error message, except this time the crash is on line
different from the last one. This time it crash at line 1411

What is terrible about the crash is that when I load my save files it repeatedly crash again.
So, I just wasted 5 whole hours of gameplay and have to start from beginning again.

This is totally unacceptable.

[Jargonaut]

I feel that this game should have been fully tested before release. I am a customer, who pay to have an enjoyable gaming experience. I am NOT a beta tester, and customers are not suppose to lose 5 hours of gameplay because the gamefile is corrupted and cannot be loaded without crashing.

The gaming experience is very disappointing and I count my $4.89 as a donation to a lost cause. I am really not going to waste my time replaying this game from scratch again!!!!

Hey Jargonaut, the game was fully tested and it was even released in another website before it got released here. This bug was never reported until now, so this is new to us. We are looking into this for the past of days. I am sorry for the inconvinience and also sorry that you feel that way. I hope when this is cleared you can give the game another shot, I guarantee you the game was made with a lot of passion and care, we didn't rush a product to the market.

Again, if you could tell us exactly what you did right before you got that error message, that would help us a great deal in tracking the source of the bug.

I just finished a battle, was low on health and going to drink at fountain.
