Thanks a lot for the kind words!
They are a few things going on for 0.2, teasy-touchy-touchy but nothing meaty. So I've thought of working on a glimpse from the future kind of scene along for 0.2, with one of the girls you guys prefer (still need to do a poll at some point).
Wait, those animations are not missable... They're are triggered at this moment.

As for the next update, I already have 100+ renders for Day 1, which may be roughly the same size as Day 0.

Getting like Crimson High vibes from this game and if it's anything like that game, this surely going to be a banger too. Godspeed dev
They are really attractive character designs, the dark-skinned girl reminded me of Nagatoro. I'm going to wait for an update or two to play it, but it looks pretty promising. Good luck.
Dang this is really good. There are just some minor script issues (the word "know" is always spelled "now", some sentences are a bit strangely worded, etc.) but nothing serious. Great game so far. Looking forward to the rest

Thanks, I gotta play that one then!
Nagatoro is definitely the inspiration for her, not gonna lie.
Thanks mate!
I see you've discovered my kryptonite. I hate homonyms, and homonyms hate me.
(Though it's a wee vile to say that I always spell "know" as now", I've rechecked the code and I only made 4 mistakes out of 70+ iterations. And now, they're revised for the next update, thank you <3)
(But if I ever need another vilain, now that I'm gonna name him Dr. Gonzo.)

You do know that headpats are a gateway drug to HAND-HOLDING, right?

are you aware you're shipping almost 6 hours of audio with your game?
that's over 400MB of ~20 minute mp3 files.
the version 0.1 release is only a massive 1.7GB because the dev has 5 hours and 45 minutes of audio files as well as minimal compression for the image files for the game.
every frame is a new full png. no reusable character cutouts, nor use of transparency to overlay smaller changes from one frame to the next.
megabloat.
it could probably be about half the size without any reduction of quality.
example of bloat in spoiler:
yes, im sorry to say that each of those images are directly uploaded exactly as they exist in the game files. 2.4MB a piece
encoded as a sequence of frames, which isnt even the optimal choice here, you can get an idea of just how inefficient the above is:
4.3 MB for lossless animated png, and only 2.3 MB for lossless animated webp. thats even smaller than only one of original files.

if you get other compressed games then it will be absolutely fine for you.

I reckon being shite at it, as I'm totally new to this stuff.
Concerning the audio, I took great care in setting the ambiance but couldn't loop the pieces of a same track smoothly in Renpy, so I extended them in one long-enough-piece each through Audacity, while still maintaining a fairly mid-ish quality to save space. Shit idea, shit excecution, but it just works.
As for the characters cutouts, I've encountered several problems with characters rendered without a proper background; depending on the lights sources, their outline was all wrong and messed up. It made me stick to rendering the whole scene each time.
Thank you for bringing this up, you've pointed great ways to be more efficient I wasn't aware of. I really need to get my hands dirty.

If headpats are a gateway drug then I'm already an addict.
