Hello, timdonehy200. Well, I maybe post my overall thoughts about this game a bit later, I'm too lazy to get them together right now ;). Must say it's really amazing and...well, fresh.

What i'd like to do now is post a fixed challenger script, cause I've found a bug with Francine not updating her 'failed" status. Also, I've found an alarming future possibility for a deadlock. That's it, when Jose gets another lust points while all or nearly all girls had been claimed, the game could hang just because of this:
Code:
label Challenger:
    $ d24roll=renpy.random.randint(0, 23)
    if (lust_pointsB[d24roll]) >= 10:
        jump Challenger
So you'll either manually have to safeguard against it, or add a safeguard counter, which is the better way, me thinks.
EDIT: on second thought, it's not when all girls've been claimed, it's when their lust for him is at max, but, still.

Oh, and you've said NTR is something you're not into. Well, what is it then :evilsmile: ?

I've found some other bugs in day2 script, but it's rather, hmm, HUGE, you know, so I want to look into it a bit thoroughly before posting some fixes. All I have to say right now, is your economics are all screwed. Even if you work for Francine, you won't get a discount on any items you buy.

Yes, I just noticed the half-price deal not being half-price at all after doing a run... There are indeed still a few bugs here and there but I know about them and I'll fix them for future versions for sure. Right now, I'm taking a break from this game, so you're free to post a mod or a fix if you wish, if you can understand any of my jibberish code, that is.

It's pretty understandable, you don't have to blame yourself (and this comes from the person who have no experience with RenPy altogether :) ) It's just i'm not sure now i'll be able to fix scenes in which some content is missing, but at least i'll try to point them up.

As far as content goes, there are no images missing at this stage I believe.

I'm mostly referring to some of the
Code:
show lunchnikki04
where it should be
Code:
scene lunchnikki04 with dissolve
.
That kind of stuff.
This particular image bug was fixed in the latest release (or the small patch I made on top of page 18 or 19, can't remember?), at least it is on my computer version. And in most other cases, I used "show" for pngs, because they are a small fraction of the image, usually when the head moves or something. These renders saved me some time, but if they are to be overlaid on an image, then it's "show" and not "scene".

On the eavesdropping on Brittney and Jose. After you tell Britney you were a prom king, there is a missing screen for her locker. I also tried telling her off, and had her expression against a gray field.

Isn't that fixed with the small patch I made on top of page 17? I know I fixed this issue, cos it's fixed on my computer but maybe I didn't bother uploading it, I'm getting confused, fixing all these bugs drained me...
In any case, the images are not missing, it's just that they are not correctly called. The actual image files are all there.

I loaded the new script from your blog and the missing scenes are still there. It is understandable, there is a lot to track.

I didn't do the script update you put on 17 as I thought that was just to slow down Jose and would be out of date compared to the one from the blog that was posted later.

You do deserve a break after this, hope the holidays are joyful, and stress free for you.

18 actually, it doesn't slow Jose as the gains for him are not altered. Still, he gains less of what you could gain. If I computed correctly, the max for him on day 2 is 51 points whether the min is 40 points if you avoid certain places for some time.

That was the script update from the blog, there was a previous script update on 17 that was to slow him down.

How far along is this game so far? From what I've read so far their are 2 girls you can Win but are there any lose to rival yet? I keep getting nowhere after day 2 and the game ending.

It's v0.2 mate. So yes, it ends after day 2. I made the effort of writing a dev note which is in the OP, I wish people would make the effort of reading it...
And you can lose to the rival any girl or no girl, he gets random lust points assigned to him.
