UPGRADED RELEASE - v0.19.7a!
Added 2023-07-25 05:56:15 +0000 UTCHi, everyone!
Okay, so this update is a little different, in that it's actually an upgrade. Specifically, an upgrade to the Ren'py SDK that I use to make Corrupted Kingdoms. There's a number of advantages to upgrading, but most of them are highly technical, so I'll just cover the main ones:
First, and most importantly, this should fix any Android issues people have been having! The upgraded SDK comes with all sorts of fixes for Android, so if you haven't been able to run CK on your device recently, this should solve your issue!
Secondly, the upgrade bumps Ren'py up to Python 3 (the programming language) which comes with a lot of new goodies, including the ability to create pseudo-3D environments, synchronize your saves to my server for easy transfer between devices, and many more. These features aren't enabled right now (as I need to experiment with them first) but will be slowly introduced in the coming months.
Now, all that being said, there's a reason why this is a separate download. Everything has been thoroughly tested, top to bottom, but as with any upgrade there could be little gremlins just waiting to strike. So please backup your saves before playing this upgraded version! It's a 99.9% chance that you'll be absolutely fine, but 0.1% is still a chance.
And if you do download the upgraded version below, please let me know if you have any problems - and if you don't! If this goes well, the upgraded version will be integrated into the public release, but I won't know if you don't tell me.
Thank you, and I hope you enjoy!

Comments
Yes, it's the version that has the "malicious file warning" thing. So far I've had one report of it not working (from someone who edited their save file, admittedly), so it's definitely something I'll look into. It may be possible to just remove that check from the SDK itself (I've already had to edit the SDK to allow for autosaves to be manually triggered).
2023-07-26 04:33:29 +0000 UTCIs this the Ren'Py version that adds the Save Token "feature"? (If you have an edited save, then you get a popup warning that it might not be safe and if you're sure you want to load.) If so, I've noticed--in the couple of games that have it--that it doesn't quite fully work. Clicking [Yes] should still load the save, but clicking that or [No] just closes the popup without loading anything.

2023-07-25 21:31:28 +0000 UTCProtag learns skills by watching the other fighters perform those skills in battle. So with Protag in Support, try using one of the skills one of the girls has while the girl is in the Frontline, and you'll see a message pop up saying something like "Protag is attempting to learn a skill..." and if successful it'll follow up with something like "...and has learned the skill 'I Can't Remember A Skill for This Example'!" or you'll see a failed message. Might take a few times for them to learn the skill so be prepared to do it a few times.
