Version 0.20 pt 1 Release! (Download Here!) (Patreon)

You might have to do a double take since it's been so long! :P Once again we're extremely sorry about the awkwardness in our development for a long while now. This release alone won't begin to fix those issues, but we do hope that it'll begin to prove that we're trying to get content moving steadily again as we move along.

Thank you everyone for the continuous support and just remember there's more coming this month for content!

We also included both .rar and .zip file options to download the game. Many have expressed this suggestion and so we hope it helps in downloading the game easier for you. <3

[Keep in mind that this is v0.20 part 1, with part 2 expected for Nov 18th and part 3 expected for Nov 30th. Part 1 doesn't feature a ton of new content within episode 5, where part 2 & 3 each feature 4-5 new scenes added and will be the bulk of those releases content.]

~V0.20 pt 1 content~
<Supporter Build>

~Adjustments/Notes~

-Transferring saved data from Version 0.15+ should work. Reminder that I believe you need to have said saved date close to the end of a episode for it to work correctly. (There might be some weird visuals in the load data screen, because of the 1280x720 aspect, where now the game is in 1920x1080 as of v0.19+) [Update: v0.20 pt 1 doesn't seem to work with past save data. We're going to include a save slot that skips players directly to the end of Ep 4 with v0.20 pt 2's release.]

<!>~New content~<!>

-All sprite assets have been fully replaced and updated with their finalized art.
-New episode 5 splash screen art added.
-New music has been added to the title screen and other areas.
-Finalized gui text box has been added. (With on-screen button to hide/show text box)
-New sprite animation effects have been added to Episode 5.
-New transition effects have been added to Episode 5.
-Episode 5: Is there a Mystery Club? Has been added.
-Episode 5, Scene 1: Joey’s Harem Quest. Has been added.

~Known or possible issues being looked into~ (Feedback very helpful! <3)

-With the new gui text box, we have finalized font text, size and color scheme. We'd love to hear everyone's feedback in how the readability feels in general with how it appears. Ideally this is the default look for the game, but depending on feedback, we'd like to include general options to change the text simply to white or black within the config settings, if it makes a big difference.

-The new textbox ui button to hide the window has a known issue: After clicking the X and proceeding to click anywhere on screen besides the check mark/button to make the textbox reappear. It will cause a exception error/crash. (Looking into it for v0.20 pt 2 or pt 3.)

-Android builds need a bit more testing and our hope is to have this up and running with v0.20 pt 2 expected for Nov 18th. Thank you for your patience.

-Finalized cg art has not been added to the game yet. We're waiting to add these in all at once in future releases. Episode 5 will have new cg scenes added, but they might be outdated art style mixed with some being finalized.

-Miki's Dream might still have a bug or two at a given spot within the content. This shouldn't prevent you from completing the content, as it's linked to failure outcomes. We are looking into this and fixing it as part of v0.20's series of releases this month.

-Episodes 1-4 has new sprite visuals that may not line up with current text shown in-game. Example: Nurse and Karissa are sporting sweet pamps now, but we haven't added new text to reflect this. (Coming with v0.21)

-An issue with dialogue text appearing with "XX_" before certain words when it shouldn't appear like this. Example for Episode 1 at the nurse's office: "She was sitting at her desk in the middle of writing" is how it should appear, but it's appearing as "She was sitting at her desk in the te_middle of writing". (Looking into this, possibly a v0.21 fix)
