I finished the Game Boy version and after fighting the final boss, the game asked me if I wanted to save and it made it sound like there was a New Game+ option. I saved my completed save in Slot 3, but when I click on new game I get a "DATA WARNING" error stating starting a new game will erase all my save data. If I try to continue Save 3, it goes right back to the title screen.
Am I doing something wrong, or is there no NG+ mode?
Thanks so much for playing! And for the comment! ✨
Firstly, there is no NG+ in LesbiAnts (though there is a cheat code you can put in that lets you play the game with every ability and upgrade). You also unlock the Gauntlet for beating the game, however, which is a boss rush that gives you a special set of art scenes for completing it, as well as unlocking the Gallery of all the game's art.
Second, the warning for data overwriting is there because I didn't use multiple save files in LesbiAnts as a way to make sure your "ANT-chievements" were carried over from new game to new game. It's basically just keeping the unlock data in the 3rd save file and warning that overwriting with a new end-game save could compromise that data. If I were to revisit the game (again), swapping out for a multi-file save would probably go on the list of changes now that I have a better handle on how it works. Sorry for the confusion!
Thanks for asking! There will be a full release notes post when the update comes out, but some of the things included are music and improved sounds throughout, an unlockable game mode, combat effect and balance changes, and a whole mess of new or improved art scenes~
Really wanted to try this out on Windows 10, but the .exe is complaining about Old build of Nativefier. How do I fix this to get past the Press any button to start screen?
After checking it out on my end, it seems the way the Windows version was originally built needs an update and a rebuild. I was still able to play the game normally after telling the warning message "OK", though, and using the Z key to navigate the menus. If it still causes issues, I'd definitely recommend using a Game Boy emulator like Gambatte or Sameboy to play the rom!
I'll keep looking into it as I work on an update to the game soon. Thanks for letting me know!
Is this available on Android? I got a benevolent copy but can't play it, if it's not available it's fine I'll play it on PC but don't have wifi at at the moment (using phone data)
I'm sorry, but it's only available in the Game Boy rom format and the Analog Pocket format, (edit: as well as the new Windows version!). However, if you're on mobile, there are sites that can emulate the Game Boy system through browser, but performance can drop noticeably. I'd recommend waiting, but if you're determined, it's possible to use the file in other ways!

What will be in the new updates compared to what demo I have already played?

Ohno!

I really like this game so far. The ants are cute and the gameplay is very interesting, and I already love bugs anyway.
Thank you so much for the nice comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the game and the bugs~
You're welcome
