Thanks for letting me know. Could you elaborate some more? When you click on "Contacts" it should just bring up a dialog box with the option to then "Call" or "Text" her within that dialog box. You shouldn't have to go back from there. When you close the dialog box you should just be on the same passage you were on before.

Or did you get to the actual phone screen (the one with the image of a phone, where the actual conversation happens) and there wasn't a "Hang Up" link at the bottom?

Let me know and I'll try to get it sorted out

very good start I like it to be straightforward simple and to show that clearly the decisions matter I hope you have success with the game I think it is a good story and with the various routes and different options quite replayable I hope that soon we will see some more freedom in the player with the theme of the phone, the classes and I suppose that some more mechanics


PS: it never hurts to suggest for this type of games some "cameo" of famous with deepfake to make it more interesting

Thanks for playing! I'm hoping to have the phone/texts eventually lead to some unique side scenes that are just for fun, but I have to think the amount of variables I'm creating. As for the celebrity deep-fake cameos...maybe. But I would need a narrative reason that makes sense for why like Emma Watson or someone else ended up on this tiny, remote island. Not saying no, but it might be pretty hard to do, you know?

I have to say that this is the best first release of a game I have ever played on this site! The writing is great and the choices feel like they matter and impact the story, or as much as one can expect from one chapter at least. I think it might become my new favorite game on this site and imo it has potential to get bigger than College Daze, although that game will always have a special place in my heart ;)

Also really like the reference to

Keep up the good work! I believe this will become a great game but with the high quality shown it will take a lot of work and time. But Rome wasn't build in a day and as such you can't rush perfection. Cheers!

I'm humbled that you think this game could end up in the same league as College Daze, since I love that game and it was a big inspiration. I've already resigned myself to the fact that this could end up being a ton of work (especially writing), but the writing part is the part I enjoy the most so I'm happy to do it. Thank you for playing! I'm really glad you enjoyed it so far.

About cameos think that this is a work of fiction in the same way that the chosen pornstars have different "roles" and characters the cameos could be something similar For example, when we go to meet the school principal, Mrs. Jane Williams is Natalie Portman.

It does not have to appear "interpreting themselves" I do not know if I explain myself

but is only a suggestion

I understand what you're saying. I'll definitely keep it in mind!

Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed it. Scope creep is definitely something I've thought about and I have some strategies to deal with it. Keep an eye out for the next update soon

What will be the duration between updates? Good work for the first release. Will wait for future releases.
