THE NIGHTRIPPER
Added 2017-09-30 20:43:38 +0000 UTC0.4.2 - No need to update if this bug does not effect you
Possible fixes for the black screen bug.
- When exiting the Diner at the beginning of the game, the screen fades to black and stays that way making it unplayable. I haven't encountered or been able to reproduce this bug myself, which means it's been hard figuring out a solution. So I've done two things:
- Modified some of the behind the scenes code (in hopes it fixes the issue)
- Included a fail safe key. If you encounter this bug, pressing 'P' should shut off the black screen allowing you to continue playing.
Please message me if you encounter the bug (even if the P key fixes it). I'm trying to narrow down the causes.
0.4.1
- Fixed the Quality settings (I think for good this time!). You should be able to toggle them with no problems
- Finished up the rest of the interiors
- Adjusted the chase music slightly
0.4
- Glitch warning - See the attached screenshot
- New crackden layout - the floors are all differernt from each other now
- fixed several behind the scenes null reference bugs that were glitching the game
- The ripper should now spawn after the crackden. Please let me know if he doesn't
- fixed a bug where the ripper attacks when close to you, even if you haven't been spotted
- New controller options and improved controller support in the UI
0.3.1
- Noticed a game breaking bug when changing the resolution in the menu. Disabled that option for now while I work on a fix
- Added controller support to the retry menu. Missed it when testing 0.3 because I didn't die XD
0.3
- Controller support - It's slightly unpolished, but the whole game is playable with a controller now
- No more sliding down the steps
0.2.6
- adjusted the speed of the ripper's car
0.2.5
- Added toggle buttons for video format and CRT display
- Fixed the Ripper's speed on the Backstreets
- Fixed the ripper despawning in the Crackden
- Removed the cube from the ripper's car
0.2
- Mac version
- Fixed the daytime sky bug
- items are now easier to see in the dark
- neon signs buzz
- The ripper drives more aggressively
- flashlight is now found in the diner
- Gaps leading out of the play area have been fixed
- Shaders in 1996 mode load correctly
- Icon added
0.1
- Alpha release
Finally! Sorry about the delay, this ended up being way more complicated than I anticipated.
Controller support didn't make this version but I'll be adding that in an update next week, along with some slightly nicer texturing in places.
Nightripper must be played in one sitting, similar to Power Drill Massacre. It's best enjoyed if you set aside a few hours free of distractions and immerse yourself into dealing with the situations presented. Tap the left mouse button to avoid panicking. Be careful but act swiftly when in danger. The farther you go, the more is at stake.
Thanks to everybody for making this game possible!

2023-09-03 08:19:48 +0000 UTCIt's meant to be played in one sitting. I should've read the description before starting the game. Goddamnit.

2021-09-14 15:08:45 +0000 UTCthe game is good, but is impossible to pass the rooftops with the glitchy physics

2021-09-14 15:07:03 +0000 UTCI am having the same problem :(

2021-08-20 03:52:04 +0000 UTChow do I get this to work on Mac cause every time I open it says it needs to be updated by the developer

2021-07-16 01:24:38 +0000 UTCI haven't tested if this is the case when starting with any other camera angle first. It definitely happens 100% of the time in first person however.

2020-10-27 19:27:59 +0000 UTCHey Puppet Combo, there seems to be a bug when playing first person camera. If not moving at all the character slides slowly to the right of the camera and doesn't center back with the camera. Switching camera styles doesn't fix this either.

2020-10-27 19:24:26 +0000 UTCYou may have to wait several minutes for it to load into memory

2020-08-29 00:05:47 +0000 UTCCan't get past the first loading screen...

2020-08-29 00:03:00 +0000 UTCIt is the 64-bit version.
PUPPET COMBO
2020-04-27 16:59:47 +0000 UTCDo you have a 64 bit version of the game? My updated Mac software doesn't allow for 32 bit games.

2020-04-27 16:59:04 +0000 UTCDuring the segment, where you are stuck inside a building with the duckman, I can't find the key, to open the door to the crack-house building (from the inside). I checked out other youtubers to see where it is, then I checked out the area for myself, but the key is not where its suppose to be.

2018-12-26 11:56:57 +0000 UTCalso puppet combo can you put a download for every version released just so you can see how it progressed.

2018-09-14 06:42:23 +0000 UTCHey Puppet Combo the camera is off setting slowly from the player. Fix it please
ToxicAnimation
2018-09-14 06:32:57 +0000 UTCfor the first ten minutes i figure that the middle mouse button doesn't work to change camera in game and the fixed camera doesn't change by the way it's a great game and i love it :D
GEORGE PRIONAS
2018-05-04 04:57:23 +0000 UTCThank you! I'm about to upload a new version that fixes that among other things. Full version with controller support is expected later this week. And your name is now spelled correctly!
PUPPET COMBO
2017-10-03 09:58:36 +0000 UTCFinally got the time to play it. Superb New York Ripper hommage, I dig it. In the second section of the game, on a short street between the motel and the abandonned gas truck, there's a tight alley where the character can enter and end up outside of the map. Perhaps it's deliberate (for debugging purposes?) but I figured I'd let you know.

2017-10-03 09:56:44 +0000 UTCThanks. A gamma setting would really help. But I won't argue with the torch being added straight away either!
Zac Peachey
2017-10-01 06:30:54 +0000 UTCYes, the white sky is a bug, I didn't notice until after doing the build. I find selecting "Fastest" quality seems to be the best work around in the mean time. Fixing that is top priority. The game being dark is strange. I can actually play most of it without using the flashlight at all. Probably different monitor settings. I can place the flashlight in the Diner for now so you find it right away. I should also include a gamma setting to calibrate the game to your own display
PUPPET COMBO
2017-10-01 05:58:03 +0000 UTCSecond. Is the sky meant to be really bright? Looks like day time. Not sure if it's a glitch or not but it cuts out a lot of the intro text
Zac Peachey
2017-10-01 05:04:08 +0000 UTCJust two thing after playing it. Is it just me or is the game really dark? I'm mean really dark? I can't really see where I'm going. Is possible too find a torch straight away or do you find it later?
