@Killer Gin ...
A tiny detail, but annoying enough. The Game doesn't 'remember' the Options that I'd chosen (all Sounds down to 20%, Remember Commands...). Every time I launch the Game, I have to re-adjust, or suffer the onslaught on my ears of an over-loud (to me...) BGM. All the other Games and Demos I see retain these Options between sessions; any reason why KJ should be different..?
On another tack, I had a go in the Infinity thingy, and suffered quite a lot. I'll have to try again later, but much, much stronger, as they're relentlessly murderous in there. I sincerely hope that any rewards to be gained are worth the thrashing..! I found more Chickens, too. I now realise why I couldn't find 'em all in the Village..! Yes, I'm
that dumb..!
Later; much later...
Progress..! I really think that I may (modestly...) be getting the hang of this..! Not up for Crafting and such as yet (although a few recipes can now be prepared...), but I've finally figured out this here 'jp' stuff, and can even have the Party learn Skills..! OK, only small fry for now, but it's a start.
Having taken the brave step to leave the Village, I (no, not me, myself, you fool; the Party that I'm 'controlling'..!) came across the Werewolf; this has provoked a return to the Infinity stuff. A bit more successful (although still delicate...), and a nasty surprise just when I'd found Level 2. My own fault, I think; I was stuffing one of the team with Grapes, and I think that the hammering of the Menu tipped me over the Memory threshold, not giving the System time to purge the video. Crash..! Luckily I have a Save just at that point, so I'll continue further this evening (I hope...), but I'll be careful not to go crazy on the Menu this time.
I've not understood the bit about Omelette and the Bell; maybe it'll become clear later..? 'Perception', too, is a mystery for now; I have no idea how or when it can be used. So much more to discover..!
(bites nails in anxious anticipation of the trials and tribulations to be
enjoyed endured...)
If you want to know what the last version of the game is you can just check the official game website. Geez, MV is having memory issue still? Ug, I hope they fix this. The next version of the game will not include the preloader script, its great for the browser version but I am unsure how well it works for the PC and Mac version.
Yes you have to use JP points to learn new and more powerful version of the skills for each and every character. Best and fastest ways to improve characters outside of giving them new and updated gear.... just use JP to learn armor and weapon crafting and but the ore at the shop!
Are you using Shinata correctly? She has to store energy and then use skills like heal blast and heal wave to heal party members. The more energy stored the better the outcome. Also you should try to obtain better gear through crafting and place gems into the sockets in your armor.
Do you have Nurock or Gordo in your party?
The newest version of the game sells high-end armor in the stores now. You should be able to but Obsidian armor etc, or you do not have he latest version....
WAIT! Are there torches in your game? The newest version of the game has torches and light and darkness. This is especially evident in the Infinity dungeon.
Actually by checking the browser version you can easily and quickly see what version that game is because that is always up to date.
http://www.indiexpo.net/en/games/killer-gin (PC and Mac version should be more stable though)
I dunno why the BGM problem, maybe thats the prelouders fault.... we shall see when I release the next version.
Perception is a passive ability that automatically kicks in when its needed. You just have to have someone unlock it in the skill menu... if you want to learn more about omelet and the bell you must have someone learn the "speak to animals skill" ;0)
Thanks for all the feedback ;0)

[doublepost=1481754897][/doublepost]Just wanted to give you a quick Homestead Guide:
HOMESTEAD MODES
- There are two homestead modes: Analyze and Action.
- You may toggle between either mode using the icon at the top of the screen.
- Analyze mode gives the player detailed breakdowns of every action they make.
- Action mode removes detailed breakdowns to speed up gameplay, also allows character to chop down trees.
CROPS
- Crop stages: Seeds, planted-immature, planted-ripe, death.
- You must water and fertilize your crops. If their water or fertilizer levels drop below 0 they will die.
- Crops can be frozen (due to snow). You must thaw them, with an item, to perform an action with them. If they are frozen for too long they will die. If they are infected, then frozen, the freeze will kill any infection.
- Crops can be infected with bugs (during nice weather). You must spray them, with an item, to perform an action with them. If they are infected for too long they will die. If the crops are frozen before you spray them, the infection will be cleared but now you must thaw the crop.
- Harvest crops when they are ripe to receive the crop and seeds.
Crops can grow old and die, harvest them in time.
LIVESTOCK
- Livestock stages: Immature, Mature, Death.
- You can order livestock via the livestock ordering system or you may mate two mature (opposite gender) animals to produce young.
- All livestock require water and food to survive. Ensure that there is plenty of water in the water bucket and food in the trough.
- Livestock is either male or female. This is important when mating and what you receive from the female animal as only females produce goods (eggs and milk). However you need males to reproduce. Mature animals must be well fed (food and water) and must be happy enough to reproduce. After the animals reproduce, there is a cooldown before they can reproduce again. The cooldown is different for males and females.
- Immature livestock can not mate or produce any goods. They will mature in due time. The player can play with the animals to keep them happy. You can pet the animal or play with the animal. You can choose one in order to raise the animals happiness once per day. The difference between the two selections is the amount of time required to complete the action.
- At anytime you can choose to slaughter the animal for meat (key items - attack mode toggle). Immature and mature animals yield different amounts of meat.
- Animals will die from old age.
RELATIONSHIPS
- There are 21+ dating prospects, they can be found in the pub.
- Races include: Human, Elf, Dwarf, and Orc.
- Sexualities include: Straight, Bi, Gay, Lesbian.
- Classes include: Fighter, Barbarian, Thief, Black Mage and White Mage.
- Each prospect has their own personality and their own preferences.
- Once per day you can talk to a person to raise your relationship by 1.
- Once per day you may also give a gift to a person. Reactions may be good or bad based on the gift, the gift recipient, and the relationship level. Give carefully!
- You must raise your relationship high enough (you must fit the prospects preference) so that you can first get engaged (relationship level 100+) then married (relationship level 200+).
- Once you are married your spouse will move into your house.
Your spouse will travel with you on your adventures in homestead mode.
HOMESTEAD UPGRADES
- You may upgrade your homestead, garden, and barn with the appropriate materials.
- Homestead upgrade: Bigger homestead, comes complete with a crafting table and alchemy crafting station.
- Crop upgrade: Crop number increase from 4 to 6.
- Barn Upgrade: Livestock number increase from 4 to 6.
HOMESTEAD TIPS
- You must sleep in Homestead mode!
- You will begin to get tired at 10:00pm, go back home to sleep.
- You will faint where you stand after 12:00am. The longer you wait, the greater the chance you will faint.
- When you faint you will receive the “Homestead sleepy” state.
- When affected by the Homestead sleepy state, all actions will take longer to complete, therefore, you will be less productive. You may use an item or take a nap to remove this state.
