You can go back to the desert valley, you just need to go on-foot. Teleport to the 'northern bridge camp' I think it's called, walk up and across the bridge, then go to the valley entrance in the north-east.
i did thay but it prevents me. it says 'ypu decide against returning to the valley for now, not wanting to risk the ire of the strange, floating creatures...'
I see... if you've done that, you SHOULD have automatically collected some Hardened Black Sludge.
If you don't have any, you lost it or sold it or something... then I'm afraid you can't get any more at the moment. Just to check though, you mean the 'black sludge' and not the hardened slug secretions, yeah? 'cause if you need that, you can get it from fighting slugs in the jungle.
Wherever you've downloaded the game to and are trying to run it from, it's in a read-only location.
You need to move the game folder to another location. Make sure you've properly unarchived the game, and then move the game files again, using Finder, to the Applications folder.
...it's not a 100% guarantee though since some of the latest OS updates for Mac have caused some problems we can't entirely account for.
I'm really enjoying this one so far, admittedly a lot of the kinks aren't ones I'm into, but I like the characters, the gameplay, the world and the plot enough to go through them anyway.
Hello, I have a question. When Grove does not give in to desire once and achieves a full collection through the merchant dragon synthetic restraint suit, will there be a special reward for this kind of gameplay? It is very challenging and avoids the contact between Grove and corruption. This is a machine flip. This is not the language I use.
Hello, I found a bug. When Grove eats a strange fruit and stands on the interaction point on the stairs of the tower like a dragon soldier before the animation is released, clicking the button will repeat the animation. Grove's body cannot withstand many tortures. This is a machine flip. It's not my language.
Hello, I found an interesting question. Grove can go out with the flames of the red slime dragon cave. Is this a clue to hide the plot or a bug? This is a machine flip. I don't use this language.
Incredible work on the storytelling, worldbuilding, and to be fair everything else! This game is truly the greatest in all the themes it goes through, the humor, the sexual content certainly, but mostly the world. It leaves for so much to discover and all of the characters feel oh so alive, the slice of life away from the NSFW bits is just as good as the rest, and it's something I wish I saw more.
Thank you so much for building such a world, even if its inhabitants can get a bit freaky. Keep on the good work, and much wishes on the future endeavors!
As the guy who writes what you see in-game, I really appreciate the compliment. Of course my writing's nothing without Regalbuster's art and coding skills, so we're glad the full package could be so praise-worthy, thank you!
Ahh, wish there would be an android version- it has been a while I played this T-T
Regardless of the impurity of sexual content which I like af, the story itself was always fascinating me. At some point it gave me a sense of slice of life, heavy action, pure fantasy and it's story rich too. It always hypnotised me- the characters too are extremely unique too. It always felt like that everybody in this game are a different person. This will always be my top 1 favourite itch.io game.
Thank you for the kind words! Though I'm not a professional, it's always really wonderful to hear people resonating with the story and character writing!
Mr. SirIzike I hope it has portal rings amputation quadruple. While at same time being in latex hypnosis suit while being penis milking through process. with voice and little interactive animation. I hope is optional like in prowler. without dying without resetting game.
If you're referring to a gallery for viewing the 'game over screens', there is one! You need to finish the main story to be able to view it however.
As for the desert, you need to make sure you're looking for shade, and you need to walk around in the shade to lower your temperature.
Look for shady canyons, caves, or even houses. And don't forget, you can always turn around and retreat to the last shelter you found if you can't see anything ahead.
And one more thing, what else is the gummy slime strip used for, other than being a magician? And will the game still be free after the engine and design change?
The slime strip can be given to the Wizard, to trigger a scene later with the blacksmith. Keep an eye out for a green blob appearing at the blacksmith's forge.
How can I unlock all the scenes in the gallery when I complete the game but I'm missing some scenes and I don't know how to get them because and I need a guide for what part of the story they appear in to have the complete gallery please
Each locked scene comes with a hint. Know that as long as you keep a save in the gallery, you can start a new game or return to older saves to unlock things you missed.
If you're really unsure how to find a particular scene, share what the hint message says and maybe somebody can help.
Hey there. When joining our Discord we have a CAPTCHA in place to keep bots out. You should get a DM from said captcha bot, which you'll need to reply to.
If you haven't got that DM, you'll need to go into your Discord settings and 'allow direct messages from server members', then type /verify in our 'verification-chat' channel and it'll send you another one!
Is there anywhere else to see substar content? They randomly nuked my card, but my card is with a disability check account in my mother's name due to getting disability rights as a teen.
So, I'd have to send substar her info to get them to re-okay the card, which I can't do.
For your part 2 of Grove, you know that in one scene in the bandit's hideout, when you get captured, your character is being penis-milked by a machine with blindfolds, and, at the same time, being fucked as well as milked endlessly in a latex secret chamber room chair that also does the same thing but with latex on. Could you possibly add more of that but this time optional like Proweler without your character dying? What I’m trying to say is that having more options means our character doesn’t always have to die when having kinky stuff when facing a monster or villain all the time. When defeating a boss, you can still have relationships or more interaction with characters at the same time, with more sex stuff in them too. That’s all me and everyone who likes that stuff wishes to be in your game if possible. Please
Then, install the Windows version of Grove. You will also need to install an app like RAR to unzip the Grove file.
When JoiPlay is installed, open the app (obviously) and grant it access to your smartphone files.
Next, use RAR to unzip the Grove file. To play the game, select the executable file and open it WITH JoiPlay. You just need to enter the name of the game and its version.
To save your progress, simply use the game's save feature. You can play the game using touch controls or, if you prefer, a gamepad.
I prefer to use a gamepad mainly for the escape button, which works like a return button. Without it, you can't go back in certain situations during battles.
Enjoy!
(Sorry if there are any mistakes in my English—it's my second language)
Yes! We're returning to work on Grove, and will have some news to share about it soon! We recommend you +Follow GROVE DEVELOPMENT here, or on one of our social links listed above, so you're notified!
Due to some of the features and plugins this game uses, mobile emulation has a few issues. We don't officially support it because we don't want to tell people to play a version of the game we know is half-baked.
Some people have still tried, got mixed results by running the game through mobile emulators of RPG Maker. You're free to try yourself if you really want to, but we won't be able to help with any bugs or issues you come across I'm afraid.
could somebody tell me how to get the gallery i know its unlocked after beating the bandit hideout but thats all i know and i havent seen a prompt to access it at all

Hello, for those who doesn't have a PC and like to play this game like I do, download joiplay, it totally works for me
When should we expect the release of the new update?
what was the moonlight abuctors real name again? [the moth from the mill] and can i see them again as an npc?
Their name is Lum. You can go back and visit them by returning to the windmill at night.
Hardened Black Sludge can be found in the desert valley
right, bur scince i finished the game its not letting me go back into the desert valley, even by telaport, will it be open again?
You can go back to the desert valley, you just need to go on-foot. Teleport to the 'northern bridge camp' I think it's called, walk up and across the bridge, then go to the valley entrance in the north-east.
i did thay but it prevents me. it says 'ypu decide against returning to the valley for now, not wanting to risk the ire of the strange, floating creatures...'
I see... if you've done that, you SHOULD have automatically collected some Hardened Black Sludge.
If you don't have any, you lost it or sold it or something... then I'm afraid you can't get any more at the moment. Just to check though, you mean the 'black sludge' and not the hardened slug secretions, yeah? 'cause if you need that, you can get it from fighting slugs in the jungle.
so how do i get hardened black sludge? becuase ive looked around the map after i was done with the game.
I seem to be experiencing some errors when enabling some features, an error message popped up on the screen. I'm playing this on a MacBook Pro
Let us know what the error message says. Take a screenshot or type it out, please. That way we can maybe help you.
Did you put it into cloud? that is usually the problem
How do I fix that?

I played the game and I had fun. So many lovely game over screens.
Maybe you could add a thing for it? Also I love the latex.
However, I hate the desert section. Doesn't seem to function right.
If you're referring to a gallery for viewing the 'game over screens', there is one! You need to finish the main story to be able to view it however.

I would also like to say, how much I HATE SLUGS. Especially that quest where I have to fight that massive dragon slug. Caused me great rage.
I hope there's an mobile version of this man, other games is just like this, no mobile supported
Will I live to see an update to this game？
As long as you don't plan on dying this year, yes!
Will you ever make this game paid access? And if so, Will you put it on Steam?
Perhaps, when GROVE has completed development, we will make a full paid access version for Steam. However this is not a guarantee.
How to increase the main character's corruption without leading to game over?
Will the game have an Android version in the future?
And one more thing, what else is the gummy slime strip used for, other than being a magician? And will the game still be free after the engine and design change?
The slime strip can be given to the Wizard, to trigger a scene later with the blacksmith. Keep an eye out for a green blob appearing at the blacksmith's forge.

there are bugs if you go to an dark area your frame will drop crazy and barely playable
I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH ><
Thank you!
How to save game
Press your 'esc.' key. You can save from the menu.
Will there be a mobile version?
Is there anywhere else to see substar content? They randomly nuked my card, but my card is with a disability check account in my mother's name due to getting disability rights as a teen.
So, I'd have to send substar her info to get them to re-okay the card, which I can't do.
Sorry, we're only using Substar at the moment. But everything shown off on the Substar will be implemented in our game projects when they're released.
Can someone help me? the lizard guy told me to look for titanium for the lever but where do I find it?
There's a well to the south of the inn. You need to find your way inside.
if youre taking suggestions, you should add in a way to watch back the sex scenes from the "bad ends" (if you haven't already)
There's a gallery when you complete the game.
i found it pretty soon after i left this reply haha, thanks anyways tho!

Hey, guys! I discovered a way to play Grove and games made in RPG Maker on mobile.
You will need to install an emulator called JoiPlay: https://joiplay.net/.
Then, install the Windows version of Grove. You will also need to install an app like RAR to unzip the Grove file.
When JoiPlay is installed, open the app (obviously) and grant it access to your smartphone files.
Next, use RAR to unzip the Grove file. To play the game, select the executable file and open it WITH JoiPlay. You just need to enter the name of the game and its version.

Nice, thanks now I can play this game. ^•^
I would like to personally thank you, because I can finally play prowler at 60 fps compared to 7 on my laptop😭🙏
You're welcome
Thank you so much!!!
If I were to have the alienware laptop, can I get this on it? If yes, which one do I install?
Most likely the Windows version!
Kk, thx, I'll give it a try when I get the laptop! (Hopefully soon)
playful
real cool game i have play it for like 10h and dont even realize
oi queria muito jogar esse jogono celular por favor
Se liga aí no meu último comentário, só traduz ele e vc vai entender.
Is there still content being made for this game? I LOVED prowler..but Grove has a special place in my heart :P....it has corrupted me haha
Yes! We're returning to work on Grove, and will have some news to share about it soon! We recommend you +Follow GROVE DEVELOPMENT here, or on one of our social links listed above, so you're notified!
Done...annnd Done! :D thanks!!
Will this game be available for android users? I've wanted to play this game for a really long time, but I don't have an apple phone, or a laptop 😭😭😭

Oh, ok. Thank for letting me know!
how do i beat the mask minigame in the windmill i just cannot beat it
Pay attention to the visuals on-screen. Don't they look like arrow keys...?
is there plans to come back to this project? this is my favorite nsfw rpg it hits all my kinks , you are azaming ty
Yep, we're returning to developing Grove now that we're finished with Prowler. No estimated time yet, but it's our focus once more.
could somebody tell me how to get the gallery i know its unlocked after beating the bandit hideout but thats all i know and i havent seen a prompt to access it at all
You've been misinformed I'm afraid. The gallery isn't available until you've completed the entire story.
