Operation NOVEL: Season 1

after playing this version I say I deserved the wait It gave me more than what I asked for so thanks 

and if I say something that I wish in future updates is the call between NUMBuh 202 and NUMBuh 78 after the sector X got defeated I think It will be better for it to be similar to the first call you know with the models of the characters being shown with the Expressions of the characters I hope that my point is cleard 

When I try to download the latest version I always get the "No compatible downloads were found" error. How can I fix this?

Now the first season is done I will say this I really enjoying this game. 

As big fan of K. N. D. I really appreciate the forethought that comes to this fan visual novel. It feels like something straight from the show but with NSFW twist from the tech and additional characters and comedy.

Having the main setting as one of the R&D department is really  ingenious on a creative standpoint, the fun of K. N. D. Was 2x4 tech and again you nail it.

And I do apologize for being a bummer about the last update I didn't mean to pile on like that.

With all that said congrats for your team for making a great visual novel and look forward to seeing other projects from you guys in the future like that MLP game. 

A additional thing I do like how every character musical Themeh as a name. 

That just neat and always cool.

Oh magic conch! Will anondive ever post the final update to season 1?

.... update?

a

Eagerly awaiting the next update. Stumbled upon this during its early development and was very much looking forward to it's finished product and I couldn't be happier to rediscover it. I really appreciate the slow burn moments between the cast and numbuh 62. Keep up the good work.

Just downloaded newest update, but the game keeps crashing on the recording. Is anyone else have this problem or is it just me?

Hi Dev, I'm here to express my love for this incredible game, I've never been good with words, but I still want to come here to say that your game is simply perfect, thank you for creating something so incredible.

Hi Dive and friends. I created an account to leave this comment. I'm absolutely amazed by the content you've made, and after reading the most recent updates, am sad that haters are gonna hate. I check here monthly to see if there any updates, and absolutely love this project.  Outside of Twitter, is there another way to see how updates are going. Patreon? Discord? How can a common fan best support your project? 

Can't wait to see what comes next! Have a good day.

Since the game's more episodic, how many seasons do you guys plan on making before the game's truly finished? 

Bueno me encanto el juego está muy bueno la verdad desbloquee todo y debo decir que está genial me encanta la serie.

Bueno espero el nuevo capitulo jajaja 

Okay.  I know this is a repolished season one with extra content.  And it was nice to go through it again.  Didn't mind the extra scenes either.

One thing that bothers me though?  Why merge the first three episodes?  It was FINE as it was.  Even if the first three episodes are shorter.  Your episode 2 title "X vs. G 2" no longer makes sense because you no longer have an "X vs. G."   Furthermore, you still say that "Episode V has ended" after going through "Scout Squabble."  I know you wanted the episodes to be the same length, but that's gonna throw off longtime viewers (like me) who are used to seeing five episodes of your Visual Novel, not three.

If there's anything you should change about this it's definitely this!  That and you have missing backgrounds when you try to go through the archives...and...I can't find those comics that everyone was talking about.

Been trying the update. So far so good. Some of the lines of dialogue need to have a smaller font to fit the screen though. Otherwise they go past it and become unreadable.

Also, if it is not too hard to do, I'd like to ask for a way to rename saves. There are just a lot of good scenes in the game that I want to see over and over again. A named save file will make that easier.

Look i understand waiting a year for a update and then for no content at all to appear is gonna pretty much suck, trust me I know how that feels.

But we are talking about four people (correct me if i am wrong) singlehandedly, writing a story,coding a game and making art plus music.

Give them a break, they been taking time from their lives to give you FREE CONTENT.

So please, be a little open minded that life doesn't give a crap about your plans, and they specially give a crap about it if you are working on something and not in a good way.

It's not gonna be an easy ride.

Coding sucks, i know this because I coded some mods and other stuff.

So i understand that this was probably not what they wanted to give us in the end, but they pulled a effort to at least deliver us something and they made something to help our experience with a game they made free for us.

So what i am saying is give the guys or gals developing the game a break, saying shit about them is not gonna solve anything, and if you didn't like it?, well the rating button is here so use it.

Thanks Operation Novel team, looking forward to what you create, not even if it take 84 years.

There seems to be multiple problems with unlocking extras. I used every possible dialog option, but the following didn't get unlocked:

* The comics

* I have only 8/9 of the "Full CG's" in the Scout Squabble episode. I have the "Kourtney as cheerleader", "404 in scout uniform", "Kourtney changing clothes", the 3 pics with 62 in the janitor's closet and the 2 final pics with Betsy. Not sure if there's really any missing.

* Another user below mentioned: "Kuddlefury links in the "Order of the furry paw" causes my game to crash." - I have no idea what that's supposed to be.

On the plus side, I have the 4th episode, which I guess was meant with [Readacted]. I also have 8 recordings, which is probably also the complete batch.

Maybe you could make a version with everything unlocked available for download.

thanks and im sorry for being blunt

Great stuff! And though it'll be sad that we won't be getting any future updates with our lovable idiots for a long while, Canterlot Exchange has piqued my interest quite a bit so I'll for sure check it out when it's done.

I know many others are disappointed and it's understandable seeing how long it's been without seeing these characters again and the latest update mostly just enhances the overall game. I would be lying if I said that I didn't wish we saw more of the characters in the update, but I still think we should be thankful that we're getting a good sendoff and hopefully something more in the future. They've shown that they communicate with their community frequently rather than stay radio silent and let us never forget, we're paying them squat! We get all this quality writing for free so be a little more understanding you fuckers!

Considering that the update was already prefaced to be a clean up of all the previous content, I can't say I'm disappointed like some people seem to be. I knew what I was getting from this and it seems to have been a nice polishing of the previous version.

Overall I enjoyed the new additions, small as they may be, since they were able to lightly enhance what was already there and good. 

Mostly I'm just glad to see that there is another release, especially one that can mark something off the todo list. Hopefully next release is before 2030.

That's it?

Had to create an account just to say this update has as much content as a bug fix update 

this was NOT worth the wait

Not as much content as I was expecting, but definitely a good polish on what was previously made. Since Season 2 is set to come out "soon...ish", I'm assuming a 2027 release date and will go into hibernation until then. 

Okay, I finally played through season 1

There are a few things that bugs me off:

1. In the new expansion of chapter 1, the one where we meet Sonia, there is a problem with the textbox overlay.

While it's cool that it looks like old CRT monitor, it is misaligned with the text, so it cuts off the bottom-most line of the dialogue. I had to use "dialog" button to see what was cut off.

I noticed the same problem with the "recordings" as well. I had to use "history" tab to see what was cut off in Sandra's recording.

I suggest putting text higher when that overlay is displayed.

2. Clicking on the Kuddlefury links in the "Order of the furry paw" causes my game to crash. 

3. I was genuinely sad that the main theme was changed.

Don't get me wrong, the new there is good in isolation.

BUT the old one is so iconic to me... I really miss it when I open the game.

Maybe add an option to choose what kind of main theme plays when game is in main menu? Like, put that option in "config" or something?

Nothing new got added, waited a year or so and this was it ? It said end of episode 5 and there was like 1 picture new, nothing in gallary or mini cg added, i feel so scammed.... even download says now act 1 demo

It's finally here :D
