I would just use the itch link for the game. I think , this is the easiest way to download it.

Pls add unstuck option for ppl who don't want to restart bc they forgot save.
Like i am fucking around on the map and got here XD
tried to find a way to leave the place and i did find a building that i could climb on but i didn't know that piece of roof didn't have collision oh welp XD Eventually adding transportation around the map could be good idea. The game is nice but runs badly on weaker pc it eat 80% of my ram which was 10gb and half processor on lowest settings.

How did you get there? I tried to get inside, but couldn't find a way in.
I suppose there's no content inside? Just some building?

Alright, i will keep that in mind and create an "unstuck" option in the debug menu. (the device thingy in the inventory)
Yes, currently it is just some placeholders >_>
yea the jump height is really high thanks to that i could get there. if the wall was placed outwards you wouldn't be able to get there

Unfortunately not for the whole skin , the textures for the girl's skin are already taking a lot of memory away (there are all 4 to 8k)
But maybe i can later do something for the eye color. (But… No promises on that one since I have a ton of stuff to do)

Kerni,
First, let me say how awesome it is to see you so active on the threads for your games here.
Second, this is a small constructive criticism from me: I am enjoying the story of Bound a great deal, however I'm finding myself clicking through all the dialogue. Not because I'm trying to get to the scenes faster, but because I get bored with the monotone text boxes. All the characters speak the same way (like mannerisms and whatnot), and the text is always the same color on the same background. After a while, it just sort of bleeds together, and I'm just clicking to get to the next plot point. I *do* have a suggestion or two to help with this. First, is give each character a color for the text. It can be just their name in the dialogue box, or all the text, but this way it's more than just a name change showing that the new person is speaking. The second suggestion is about HOW the different characters speak. This was an issue I had with Milky Ways as well. While each character had their own personality traits in the script (Like Maya being anti-male to start but because she wanted stuff, Malia likes her plants, etc), they all sorta just...talked the same way. I know, with a written script without voice, it is harder to do accents properly, but just changing HOW they talk could help. For example, if you've played Mass Effect, the way I'd hear the girls speak: Maya would be akin to Mordin, quick to slip to technical jargon, short speeches unless it was about a passionate thing(like getting her to open up about the cosplay and she begins to believe you don't think less of her for enjoying it) then she'd never shut up; Maya would speak like Tali, casual, down to earth, curses slipping in frequently but as a sign of exasperation or excitement; Juna would talk like Miranda, very haughty, she comes from power and knows it, but once her trust is gained, is very forthcoming and passionate; and Yukari would speak like EDI, being and AI, very formal sentence structure, very concise, but not above using humor or compassion. Like I said, just written text makes that much harder to convey, but if it was possible for you going forward, it would help people (myself and possibly others like me) keep the girls separate.
Finally, an offer to help with the script: I am a native English speaker, and currently retired, so if you'd like help with proofreading, I can do that for you.

Hello there.. so.. different color for the names, no problem. This is very easy to do!
Different speech pattern on the characters.. arggss.. mhnaaa.....Ufff...... >_>
But... if you want to help.. well.... i have a github site here in which there is the story script for the game. And if you want to you can create a branch and change it, and with the new feature i added in the patreon beta, this script can actualyl be loaded into the game.
Here you go :

(I know... it is still called milky ways story file but it also has a BID story file in it xD)
Just create your own branch , or your own file and you can change whatever you want.
Hope this.. helps ?
Love the game.
Love the experience.
Love your interaction.
I wish you a happy time creating what makes us happy.
Thank you Kerni

I went through the entire game and did my best to fix all the spelling, grammar and punctuation (there could still be some errors). I did not try to rewrite the game. Yes, I could have added a lot of humor and changed the interaction of the characters entirely but in the end, this is Kerni's game. I do this for a lot of other dev's also. Most would not take kindly to me rewriting the story for them. Kerni is probably just too nice to say it. I can see you like to write (I fell asleep twice while reading your post but I am old so do not take it personally
) and you are probably good at it also. From my perspective the story would have to be redone from the beginning to do this right. Maybe it would be better to wait for the next game

It's literally in the building you start in, and is labeled with a sign.
