Added a few new teasers here including a SanchoMod dynamic ChoiceGuide example. I'll sort all the boolean variables via a Python macro later. Regards.

Edit: Updated the menu GUI teasers, added a "menu theme" selector within the SanchoMod main menu screen (for shits & giggles).

SanchoMod progress update status:

I revised some teasers in the post here, finished the gallery which is completely independent from the OEM including the replay name (name the replay character whatever the heck you wish, your in-game name will remain uneffected), added a menu theme selector (in the SanchoMod main menu screen, just for kicks), and progressing through the ChoiceGuide. I'm keeping everything aesthetically correlated as is the historical norm. I'll admit I had to rewrite more than my fair share of the base code (only within the mod's scripting, the base script files are unaffected 'cause that's how we roll) since it has much of the same archaic and unorthodox coding exactly reminiscent of drifty, pinkcake, dreamnow, etc.... especially concerning the menu choice code. You devs all have the exact same faulty code so someone, somewhere "borrowed" someone else's code and tweaked it to suit but it's still fucked-up and inefficient code from pre-2014 RenPy (RenpyTom resolved implementation of menu choice conditionals years ago, including proper disabling of choices dependent on those conditionals). No worries, I've sorted it as usual, it's now tight. I've also written code to be able to name Jaye if the player wishes but I'm still on the fence on whether to actually implement it in a public release.

Anyway, enough of me yammering. I have Crown & Cokes to drink and code to create. Until next time, regards.

Its an adult visual novel with a story to boot. You dont need to relate to enjoy it. I am pretty sure like 99% of us readers dont "relate" with the story and yet here we are...

The exxagerated plot is morphed outta the usual unraveling of the will of your forfathers.
The themes are so relatable: lose yourself in the work and be all years and all help to hotties.
They will make your stay more pleasurable and you will have a sense of accomplishment.
Nothing is keeping any a y”all from going to work at a lodge for the months it has customers.

Well, I can totally sympathize with your position, but this is a criticism that could be leveled at a shit ton of VNs. Even that Straightened Times VN where the family is living in the grungy hotel in the desert they are rich as fuck and it is just a temporary setback because the dad is in jail. Everybody else in VNs seems to live in a dope ass house with a pool and a sauna and gym. Chasing Sunsets does have that 1% vibe all the way through, but like soap operas, VNs seems to be a genre that doesn't thrive if the characters aren't well off and fucking in nice places.
