Released 0.917 version (Patreon)
Content
0.917 update - the update, which made us work to the maximum. We focused on many game moments, including both the plot and the technical part of the game. Large-scale work was carried out to catch the existing errors of the game, fix them, as well as general refactoring of the code. Some points had to be redone from scratch to finally fix the existing errors. This includes the same saves: now there are no problems with overwriting or creating a new save. The system started working as clearly as possible. In addition, the very state of the game from the technical part has become much better - proof of this is a fairly large list of fixed bugs. Of course, the game can still have both errors and shortcomings, but all this will be corrected as updates and hot bug fixes are released. And, if now we compare the state of the game with the 0.916 update, it's like heaven and earth. Apart from working on the technical part of the game, we also did not deprive the players of the content part. Undoubtedly, the plot has not progressed too quickly all this time, but now we are preparing a fairly global mechanic, a hint of which can be found in the 0.917 version.
Now, in order to avoid any spoilers, let's move on to the release date of this version for different roles:
Added Content:
The story related to the journalism club was continued. In addition, the Hitomi number now appears in the phone numbers, which can be used for its intended purpose.
The Korean translation has been updated. Most of the Russian text was replaced by English, while the other part was replaced by Korean.
An optional possibility to cohabit with Ayano Eshida was added. At the same time, new events and mechanics related to this very possibility were added.
Now the phone number of Ayano Eshida appears after passing the corresponding event.
Two new locations were added: "Fountain in the Park", and "Temple". Both have their own interactions.
The ability to pump luck in new locations has been added.
4 new possible items have been added to the character's inventory. You can buy them at the Temple.
Added events have for the moments when you get fired from your job at the grocery store. In addition, another rather long event was added to the existing list of working events.
Skipping the mini-game at work has been redesigned. Now, skipping it, you can get the available events from the pool.
207 male names, 250 female names, 426 surnames were added to the American dictionary of names; 181 male names, 502 male surnames, 165 female names, 478 female surnames to the Slavic dictionary of names; 494 male names, 337 female names, 553 surnames to the Japanese dictionary of names for randomized NPCs.
A new feature has been added to the randomized NPC generator. Now, by issuing the first/last name of the NPC, the generator checks its uniqueness. In other words, there will no longer be randomized NPCs with the same first/last names.
A new effect has been added to the combat system related to your character's luck score.
One new perk was added to the perk selection menu at the very beginning of the game.
The "Cunning" attribute has been redesigned. Now its value depends on the indicator of intelligence and eloquence.
The "Authority" attribute has been redesigned. Now for each aggressive interaction and fights, depending on their outcome, you get authority. The level of fear of a randomized NPCs towards you depends on it. The more authority you have, the more susceptible the NPCs will be to your aggressive interactions.
Now, the more attribute luck you have, the more money you make at the grocery store, through theft and racketeering.
Bug Fixes
Fixed a bug where there was the possibility of endless agitation.
Fixed a bug where the progress of the quest associated with the agitation could be displayed as 0 out of 5 in the diary, although in fact the quest could be safely passed by that time.
Fixed a bug where it was possible to talk about Ayano with Yuki Oota after the latter's performance.
Now, if Ayano Eshida is waiting for you in the back room, club events will not appear until she is back in the club room.
Fixed a bug where the <name 'pol_npc1' is not defined> exception could pop up at the very beginning of the game when interacting with NPCs.
The Guide's reaction to your exit from the game is now updated depending on the button you press. Also in this menu, the graphical error of the "No more asking?" function has been fixed, and now it shows the current state.
Fixed a bug where music would not play in the main menu if a new interface style was selected.
The saves system has been completely changed and modernized. Now there shouldn't be any errors with lists, overwriting, and creating a new save.
Fixed an issue with endlessly repeating negative club events, as well as a club event where a budget is given.
Fixed a bug where you were kicked out of school at 21:00, while it worked until 20:00.
Fixed a bug where the NPC's ID could be forgotten during communication, which led to problems such as changing the gender, changing the character itself per second on the screen, as well as many other similar errors.
Fixed a bug where tense music after fights was not replaced by normal music.
Minimum thresholds for attributes are set. Now there should be many times fewer exceptions associated with them.
A condition has been made that events with Hitomi cannot be called until an event involving truancy and Yuki Oota is completed.
Fixed Yuki Oota's daily routine when she lives with you. Now at 5 am, she will not be busy with paperwork, but will be safely asleep. In addition, some other minor issues related to this have been fixed.
Fixed a bug where you could invite people who were already members to your club using group interactions.
Fixed a bug where an incorrect item description could initially be displayed when opening the inventory.
Corrected the formula that calculates the font size for the names of randomized NPCs. Now the text that goes off the screen and goes to the next line, thus closing the next character, should be several times less.
Now, if someone cohabits with you, the event where Azumi walks around naked in your apartment will not fall out.
Fixed a bug where the Korean translation was missing the location "Beach" on the map.
Fixed a bug where an event related to Azumi could not fall out.
Fixed a bug where exceptions were thrown when starting a second new game during a single game session.
Fixed an issue where the your boss at the grocery store were smaller than other NPCs in sprite size.

Hot Bug Fixes 1 for 0.916 Version:
Fixed a bug where Yuki Oota would endlessly call you to her office for a dialogue about the upcoming festival.
Fixed a bug where the female NPC would not close after the end of the dialog, and it could be seen in the events.
Fixed a bug where the time was lost after loading the save.
Fixed a bug where learning in the school library did waste energy, satiety, but time did not pass.
Fixed some bugs where the current progress for completing tasks in the diary exceeded the maximum required value.
The NPC activity value after starting a new game is now 63 percent. It can still be raised to 100, and this is done so that new players who are not aware of this possibility will be less worried about microfreeze or freeze down during the Waste Time process.
Now the names located in the lower-right corner of the screen in the interaction mode have their own formula for calculating the length of the text and fitting it to this font length. This means that there will no longer be any text that goes beyond its scope.
Fixed a bug where an exception could be thrown if you try to join a group interaction.
Fixed some typos in the English translation in the moments with group interactions, and also fixed the Russian text in the English translation in the moment when you preview the skills and character of a randomized character.
Fixed a bug where Meiko Tsukasa could show more than two times in the list of club activities.
Fixed a bug where the keyboard on Android devices did not close when typing characters in the grocery store, as well as choosing the color of eyes and hair in the editor of the standard school uniform.
