Never seen a room before with not only sidequests (and 28 of them!), but also a fully fledged damn DLC? best room ever 28/10

Amazing room! I am very grateful that you could turn off the jumpscares. Hate those things. Nice humor and fun puzzles with great variety! You can tell that a ton of work has gone into making this as amazing as it is! It was a lot of fun to play so thank you!

Now that you mention it, I do need to update my graphics card haha. Thank you for that heads up! And I would NEVER expect a rework. Plus, all the things in it make it more interesting! I'll toggle some things, and see if there's anything creeping in the background of my processes. :)

@handsinthegarden

The only recommendation I can give is to set all the settings to the lowest in the options and make sure you have nothing else running in your computer. If that doesn't help then the only thing that can fix it is having a stronger computer with a better graphics card.

Unfortunately the way I built my room by continually adding elements to it has resulted in a rather large room. I've deactivated entire sections when not in use to help reduce lag but that's the most I can do apart from an entire rework which I sadly don't have the time for.

@Sleeping Lion Tavern,

Don't get me wrong I absolutely loved everything about it, it was just really tough on my computer :( Do you by chance have any suggestions that might make it a little more manageable on my end?

@Sunflows

Thank you for such kind words, I'm glad you had a great experience with my room. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be making a new room again, I spent about 300 hours making this room and I think I've accomplished what I set out to do but in doing so have burnt myself out.

However hearing that people like yourself enjoy the room definitely makes my day, please continue to check other community rooms as there a lot of polished rooms and similar tongue in cheek humour amongst them. Or you could even make your own! Have a great day!

Thanks for checking out my room! I do apologise for the immense lag, I did go quite heavy on the amount of things in the room and this does increase the chance of dysncing in multiplayer which appears to have happened with your partner. Sometimes the only fix is to restart.

@Swagda McYolo
Thank you for playing my room, I'm sorry you ran into some issues whilst playing, I hope however that the rest of the experience was enjoyable for you. Unfortunately I'm no longer updating the room, thank you though for stopping by!
Sunflows 15 May, 2023 @ 5:15pm 
Hello, just wanted to let you know that your game has left such an impression on me that I sincerely hope you continue making more puzzles if you were able to, just know that you've absolutely made a huge fan here! :)
handsinthegarden 14 May, 2023 @ 11:43am 
Was so laggy, and when i disregarded a fate and loaded back to the tavern it was pitch black for only me, not my partner.
Swagda McYolo 29 Apr, 2023 @ 1:12pm 
Also I got stuck with the crate. I removed the objects but I can't place it anywhere else...
Swagda McYolo 29 Apr, 2023 @ 1:05pm 
In the cellar, one of the stickers on the blackbord is still pickable (that over citric acid, I think).

@MillRoseC

Thanks for letting me know, that is quite strange as usually it should teleport back to your inventory the moment it goes near the ground. Did it get stuck on some shelving before hand? And do you remember exactly where it disappeared?
MillRoseC 19 Feb, 2023 @ 7:26am 
I had an issue when playing that I dropped the fireball and it vanished even with using the retrieval orb and we couldn't continue as there was nothing in lost and found.
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 16 Jan, 2023 @ 1:23am 
@NeroTheAncient
Thanks for letting me know, can I ask did it get stuck in the wooden box with the glass? Or was it somewhere else?
NeroTheAncient 8 Jan, 2023 @ 8:44pm 
So I ran in to a problem postgame for getting the axe, where it got stuck and the Retrieval Orb didnt seem to hang dislodge it. Great game otherwise

@meg
I’m glad you had a good time, really sorry that happened to you. Unfortunately disappearing items through the floor is the bane of so many rooms, eventually I might rework a lot of my room to help prevent this.
meg 13 Dec, 2022 @ 1:29am 
Thank you so much, heaps of fun. Almost got through but lost my light sabre after battling the wizard and despite using the blue orb, it was no where to be found. After that I sadly just had to quit.
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 12 Dec, 2022 @ 1:28am 
@jwb004
Thank you for the details, I'll look more into it but I've set it up so that it resets everytime someone gets it wrong so you can try as many times as you'd like.

@BlueMeLucas
Awesome work, I'll get you onto the leaderboard and statue when I can. Thanks for playing my room!
JLR004 10 Dec, 2022 @ 7:54pm 
If I recall correctly for the find the marble/cup game I guessed correctly the first two times then incorrectly. Then I let my husband try, he was able to initiate the first round but when he tried to make the selection the object (I can't remember what we were using to mark it) wouldn't snap into place and then the dialogue card wouldn't come back. This may be intended (fail and no redo) in which case never mind.
BlueMeLucas 6 Dec, 2022 @ 12:57pm 
finished everything all runes and all fates in v2

Thank you for waiting, your party has now made it into the room!

Here's your reward for finding all the runes:

You guys also made it onto the Fate Leaderboard:

And amazing work discovering all the Fates and everything in my room! (The other dagger is Jolty Johns):

Thank you for letting me know, I will have a look into it.

lost my teleport orb by dropping it out the window in the thief room
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 30 Nov, 2022 @ 1:19am 
@Sunflows
Thank you so much for the kind words, I’m glad you guys had a blast and enjoyed the map. I hoped to give some people a few laughs.

And amazing work on finding just about everything in my map. The waiting for the ore was just a cheeky little event to see how far people will go.

I will get you guys on the leaderboard and on the statue as soon as I can.

I’m so glad there weren’t too many bugs, a downside of making such a long map was encountering some map resetting bugs which would have ruined the experience. Have a great day and thank you again!
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 30 Nov, 2022 @ 1:13am 
@jwb004
Thank you for playing my room, good luck with your next play through.

I haven’t been told about this bug yet. Would I be able to ask for as much information as possible to help me pinpoint it?

Was it the 1st, 2nd or 3rd time? Did you fail once when the text disappeared? And do you remember the last text your saw?

Sorry for the all the questions, thank you for helping me improve the room!

we got ALL the fates and runes!
Players:
Sunflows
Jolty Johns: Boy Genius

This has GOT to be one of our favorite maps. We sunk in at least 4-5 hours into it and fell in love with it so much that we had to see it all the way through. Thank you for making this, we literally couldn't stop laughing at so many parts and scenes.

I was SO tempted to do the wait for the ore, I think we got to the one hour one before we realized we had to redo the map to get every fate right since we missed some. But honestly it was just so much fun.

We didn't run into many issues as well! This map had so much love put into it and it absolutely showed, so thank you again for making this. A beautiful masterpiece :steamthumbsup: :happy_creep:
JLR004 27 Nov, 2022 @ 10:47am 
Great game! We are actually going to play through again to find all the fates and runes.
Not sure if this is a bug (or if it has already been reported) but in the find the marble cup game the dialogue sticky disappeared and we were unable to complete the task.
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 18 Nov, 2022 @ 10:15pm 
@Corak
That's quite possible, I'll still look into it and see if I can do anything on my end. Although I believe the game should update to the latest version when you load in.
Corak 18 Nov, 2022 @ 10:13pm 
I think some of my issues might be caused by my game client somehow, or the game not updating properly due to me having the older version. I tried reinstalling again and the 2nd bookcase that was falling and blocking the key wasn't there.
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 18 Nov, 2022 @ 10:02pm 
In the meantime if you have issues with the blue key disappearing you can head to Lost and Found near the front door to unlock the 4th room.
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 18 Nov, 2022 @ 10:00pm 
@Corak
I will 100% agree it being very ambitious, there are many random bugs popping up and I apologise for them.

I believe I fixed spawning outside randomly.

With the basement it’s not the lead you need but the box itself, I’ve updated the guide to include the basement.

I will investigate this issue as that’s the first I’ve heard of it. Thank you for trying my room and letting me know of the details.
Corak 18 Nov, 2022 @ 9:39pm 
The room is incredibly ambitious now, maybe even too much for this game. I had played it before, and started outside, and with the texture glitch for a day when I tried it the first time. Seemed to be alright after I reinstalled the next day. Been trying to work on the last D1 fate, but I was stuck in the basement before. Not sure if I just missed something or if there was a bug, since if you were supposed to do something with that lead, it just pops off the box and only lets you drag it around.

Currently I also had a problem with the bookcase collapsing onto the bucket with the key, which prevents you from getting the key even with the retrieval orb. But since I had problems before, maybe it's something to do with my client and not a common problem.

@Lillian
Thank you for the feedback, I don't think I'll be able to pinpoint exactly what happened but I'll put some countermeasures in place to allow you to toggle the room graphics manually in case.

With so many people playing I'd like to ask if anyone felt they missed out on events or puzzles? The room was never particularly designed for multiple people especially 4.
Lillian 18 Nov, 2022 @ 6:35pm 
With so many of us playing, it's possible one of us triggered an event at the same time as activating the cellar door, and glitched it on accident. I wish I could help more :gloomfaerie:
Lillian 18 Nov, 2022 @ 6:33pm 
No problem! It was going downstairs into the basement that it happened, and it persisted to the cavern itself. It was fine in all other areas, including outside the shop .

All of the bookshelves and everything was no longer present in the basement, but all static items on the ground were there ( lead ore in basement, remains of the wizard in the cavern ).

All of the floating signs were still there, and dropping anything on the ground was fine. All navigation and walls were there and could be bumped into, just not being drawn.
Sleeping Lion Tavern (FATES)  [author] 18 Nov, 2022 @ 4:23pm 
@Lillian
No problem at all, thank you for playing.

Oh that it is quite strange, it seems the room activator has been triggered. Can I ask more details if that’s possible?

Did any of the following happen that led up to this graphical issue?

Simply waited 2 hours and came back to that screen
Came down the ladder from the outside of the tavern
Came down the rope from the basement

And if there’s any more information about what you did or activate before the glitch happened I would greatly appreciate it.

When I came back to my computer earlier, the textures had glitched, it's still a funny screenshot if you wanted to see it.

I'm still waiting on the timer for the cavern, but I'll post that when it finishes. Thank you so much for your work with this room, we absolutely had a ton of fun with it!

Thank goodness, I didn't want to keep you waiting, I was banking on a few people being curious and to see how far I could push them. I was tempted to add another 4hr timer after that one but thought even a 2hr timer was a bit much. :)

I agree but I would have counted it anyway all separately, I appreciate the thoroughness. You’ve made it to legendary status! All shall know your awesomeness.

I’m glad you noticed that I intentionally made the sound a new one so you wouldn’t confuse it for something else. It’s still a long wait though, props to you!

You absolutely can, how’s this colour? Feel free throw me colour values if you want it precise haha.

Awesome work, you made it onto the leaderboard with B6 Fate, and looking at what you’ve unlocked you’re getting close to unlocking the B5 Fate which starts several more Fates.

You’ll need the money from the gambler at the center table, but you won’t be able to get it so long as he can see you. If you’ve played skyrim you’d probably guess what you need to do.

Thank you for stopping by and great work finding those 2 Fates, a lot of people have trouble with those ones. Unfortunately you just missed out on making the leaderboard, I hope you had a great experience nonetheless. You’re always welcome to try your hand at finding all the Runes :)
