Release of 7.5 + News about R8 (Patreon)

I have uploaded a new version named 7.5, replacing all the previous links of R7. This version is focused on optimizing the game furthermore and fixing problems in the script that were discovered while working on R8 with rpickman.

The changelog is as follows:

- Added a launcher at the start of the game that replaces the previous performance selection (introduced in 7.2) and the previous choose your language menu under a more polished/synthetic form.

- Removed the loading screen that happened when changing the size of the screen, as a better solution was found to keep the cache in memory without needing to start a new preloading after a change of resolution.

- Lot of small optimization bits where it was possible.

- Enhanced audio processing (no more stuttering at the end of certain sounds).

- Some events that were attributed to the previous day (day 3) could end up playing during day 4 under certain conditions. This is fixed.

- Molly said some lines that didn't make sense in some playthroughs, these were rewritten/tweaked to fit better the playthrough context you were in.

- Fixed some minor typos that were present in R7.

Regarding R8, we have made some decent progress in the script and we pretty much know everything that should happen within it at this point, and we have the first couple of events written. I think it's gonna be one of the longest updates in terms of story development, we are about 30% there in terms of progress. 

There is still a lot of work ahead, this is probably gonna be the meatiest update we ever planned and contains the most interesting bits so far hopefully. I think if I were to make an official demo of the game, I would stop it at the end of R8.

On the art side, we have a new portion of the island to design and create, which is gonna be very intriguing to visit. We have made a wip layout of the map for it that can be seen in the spoilers post following that one. And one of the new H-scene is being worked on that is showcased in the following post too if you are not afraid of spoilers.

Tomorrow I'm moving to a new apartment, and from there I should be able to resume work the next day, everything is in order and I'm happy to leave the turmoil of finding a new place behind me.

That's everything I can say, for now, I will be working to deliver R8 as soon as possible, I have a good feeling about it, and hopefully, it's gonna turn exciting to play(!).
