Today marks the release of Talk To Me on Google Play, on sale for $3.99 between 10/31/20 - 11/06/20. While we initially wanted to put out a version on Google Play that included ads so more players could try out the game, there were some difficulties with integrating AdMob with Ren'Py 7.3.5 due to Gradle incompatibilities. If in the future a solution is found to bypass those issues, we may look into releasing a "Lite" version on the Play Store.

Players who have purchased Talk To Me on itch.io do not need to purchase the game on Google Play, and can instead download the .apk that is available here along with the PC and Mac downloads. To sideload this .apk, do the following:

1. Depending on the version of Android your device is running, you may need to go to Settings -> Security and toggle on Unknown sources. Your device will issue a warning about security issues, which you can ignore for now.
2. Place the .apk file onto your device in a folder you can navigate to.
3. Locate the .apk file in a file explorer and tap the item to begin installation.
4. After installation is complete, Talk To Me will become available on your App and Home Screen.
5. You may now also go back to Settings -> Security and toggle off Unknown sources.
