Sorry for the delay with getting this up, but I kept running into issue after issue with the sprites and the new phone systems that I needed to fix.

re:Dreamer (0.7.1) is a refinement of the new Zoey sprites and new content highlighting the revamped phone system.

STORY

• Redid swathes of the Keisuke Day 2 mall texting scenes to highlight the new messaging system changes.
• New Keisuke Day 2 mall post-bra trying scenes, such as Zach attempting to confide his real identity with the store attendant, or Zach sending a bra selfie to Keisuke.
• Expanded Zach's reaction with discomfort towards being talked about as a sex object in the Keisuke Chemistry Lab scene.

MECHANICS, INTERNALS, AND BUGS

• The texting system got a big boost and now stores messages based on who the sender was.
• I was referencing my family group chat when I made the current texting system, so I didn't realize this, but one-on-one text chats on modern phones only list the sender at the top of the screen, no in each message. The in-game chatting system has been changed to take out the names, but the eavesdropping Ai gets her own pink text bubble so you can tell when she chimes in on text conversations. She already talks in that same pink color in her own unique font (Playtime With Hot Toddies), so this is a consistent choice with the rest of the game presentation.
• The in-game image texting system broke sometime during the 0.6.0 GUI update and has now been repaired so that Zach can send Keisuke a bra selfie.
• The sprites had some issues that I missed when I did the 0.7.0 checks. They should be largely perfect now with no pixel seams in rescaled windows, no hands clipping over Zach's hips when they should be behind them, and no shadows cast over Zach's pants in the clutched arm poses when he isn't wearing a shirt.
• The T-shirt now has variations with the bra straps visible. These were a pain to do, and unfortunately the straps are almost entirely obscured by the long hair options, but trust me, they look great.
• Fixed issues where Zoey's hair wouldn't adjust properly from the jump menu.
• The git readme was somehow included in the compiled release. That's now been removed from the builds.
• Standardized "crossdressing" to "cross-dressing".
• A few miscellaneous grammar and spelling fixes.

Lastly, I'd like to end with a massive thanks to Izumi, who drew this stellar fan art of Zoey in a bikini.

She's drawn fan art for the game in the past, but this isn't just the first one designed based on Zoey's new sprites, but it's colored too!

That image, as well as the other fan art we have, can be found in the "Fan Art" folder in the game files.
