Thanks for the update, loved the Reina scene, been waiting on that one for years.

Real "love/hate" with this VN. Love the graphics, the story, the animations, the music & sound (though I wish there were an actual "coo" 
), but the requirements to get certain scenes, the impacts of choosing certain scenes, and the "use the arrows" mini-games are annoying as hell!
Not quite to the end of Chapter 6 at this point, but wanted to note that getting the Reina scene apparently takes a lot more points than you'd expect it too since it's possible to miss even if you go that route, and, according to the Mod, you actually get relationship points only by REJECTING Katy at the museum! That's just silly!
As for the mini-games, yeah, you can skip them, but you miss some fun content if you do. The hacking game in Chapter 5 was okay (replayed saves from the end of Chapter 4 to get saves that worked since the "upgrade" for Steam borked my Chapter 5 beyond repair), but unless you have a gaming keyboard (not a run of the mill laptop, like me and probably many others playing VNs) the time given to complete fight or dance moves is insufficient by about two or three seconds for each round - and maybe that's intentional. But if there' something hidden behind successful completion, something with a little lower difficulty level for those of us that aren't full-time gamers would be better - otherwise it's just frustrating and, unlike MMORPGs, AVNs are just supposed to be fun, not a competition between the Dev and the "player". My cramped little arrow pad on my laptop prevented me from finishing any string longer than 5 keystrokes - for one, they're so close together and my fingers are big enough that it's almost inevitable that I'll hit two at once when trying to go fast enough to get that sixth or seventh stroke. So if there's a "prize" or "bonus" of some sort associated with "winning", guess I'm losing out. I truly pity anyone that's dyslexic!
Rant done! Still having fun with it, but missing out on some of the pleasure because the Dev wanted to fuck with us.
Bad Digi-B! No Freezie for you!

This place doesn't like us making memes, even out of slides from the actual VN, or I would have made and posted one from another scene with a thought bubble and a string of android sheep jumping a fence over her head.Very nice Blade Runner reference

Great - a "can't like Zelda" basically full replay to get the full Paige scene in Chapter 6? And no Paige at all in Chapter 6 to get the DK SD? That's even more annoying than the Reina and Katy crap. And because of where the "Memory" is located on the board, you don't know you missed something until you've hit the end.

i realized most of the bugs that force me to ignore or rollback are during the scenes with SD cards in them (according to walkthrough)
Is this issue only for mega download link or me specific, like is there anyone who downloaded it from mega and not having the issues?

I get the errors a lot from pretty early on in the game...
And the number of times having to hit ignore in a row grows - from a couple early on to like 8+ now (early on in the camping part.)

my first error happens during flashback where kindra talks to mc mom. and then it just kept happening more and more until newest patch (it seems newest patch is done properly but there is some bug in previous chapters) and now that i was done with blind playthroughs and wanted to try and follow walkthrough for max points with kindra i noticed every time i get the errors the walkthrough has a note for hidden SD card in the scene and conveniently the specific part of scene where SD card is gets skipped when you ignore the error. like, even the first time error happens for me during the flashback it does not skip whole scene, only the bit where sd card is, i can read the rest of the scene. and i get error for every reina's sd card too

I always get confused with all this errors reports at least on the latest build v0.6.1b. Well I installed it fresh full game from the links in the OP after some updates just patching with update only patches, I checked it doing a speedrun just skipping content and no errors. I think many of those errors are related with something that isn't right in the persistent data file but I can't be sure since I'm only a very very noob in renpy and python code, mostly I understand some of what it does.
I always download from GoFile if has it available and in the case of last and current build was GoFile, no limits at least in my country. Mega requires me to turn on my VPN (yes I prefer to have it turned off, guess I'm weird) to bypass the daily limits.

Yeah, I don't get it either. I just used the patch to update to latest, used existing saves. No errors at all. Not sure what's going on, but it's a mystery to me. A clean fresh folder would seem less likely to cause errors, but what do I know? I'm just an IT industry vet with 30 years of experience.

Yeah well I'm a children of the "PC era" like you I guess hahaha I remember as a young teen in the late 80s early 90s to go often to a family friend that had an informatic shop (not sure what is the word for it in English) to play tetris and a weird golf game in PCs that had a TURBO button hahaha. I'm not an IT like you but have also more than 30 years of experience on PCs, and some of my family members are ITs like you so I'm used to be curious and at the same time careful on what I do in a PC/device.

That is just weird to me, hard to replicate the errors you get. No idea what to tell you, I even use mods and URM on top of it and everything works fine. The prior version v0.6 had errors when trying to get the SD cards in early chapters and the dialog history feature was bugged too but they were both fixed with v0.6.1b. You can even check it on the changelogs in the OP.

Steam releases typically come when the book is done. You can transfer your saves, as long as you don't copy the Persistent file.
The errors do usually have something in that says "SDcard" but I don't remember getting any SD cards(I have minigames off - I hate minigames.)

SD cards are just clickables to get gallery bonus renders, there is even a guide link in the OP for their locations in each chapter. You can check them in the gallery called Archives in the main menu and then Dataleaks on the right side of the Archives screen, on the left is the Memories aka scene replays.
But dang that should have been fixed with the build v0.6.1b. Are you sure you are running v0.6.1b or still v0.6. You can check the version in the top right corner of the main menu.
Edit: Never get tired of looking at Artemis facial expressions on the new main menu animation, it is awesome, guess it only unlocks with chapter 6 finish I think.

just tested out the gofile version, it may still be too soon to talk but its worth pointing out that the first scene that i got error in mega link download works fine (the flashback with mc mom and kindra in garage) AND i got the SDcard without any problems
i dont know if this help at all but left folder is gofile link that works fine, right folder that says "0.6-full version" is mega link that is full of errors.
