Why the call from your sister in the early stages if the game, makes you skip a day? i mean you planned the day and then you received the phone call and at the end, boom, you got to plan another day...

Still a great game btw, 'im doing a new start with the 0.5c....on going process.
Yeah, that's working as intended...
The idea behind it is that you plan your whole day but the call with your sister/cousin takes you the whole day to prepare the accommodation for them. I should explain that better with a game text, I can see that, but the main idea is that. :D

Now I kind of want a quick and dirty walkthrough
The changelog is so in detail that I don't want to read it all
Thanks for being so detail oriented but I want a cheat sheet so I won't miss any scene.
Any hero? Or Bruni?
I think @Sural Argonus was working on it some time ago... But I'm not sure.
Some developers "sell" their walkthroughs for patrons (usually the richest ones), but I don't want to make anything like that. And I'm not planning to do a WT, because it would take too much time I don't have and I prefer to focus on development.

I am planning a manual though, as videogame developers used to make in the 90s, you'll be pleasantly surprised by it I'm sure.

I think important events should be imitated regardless of what you planned ahead, otherwise it would be a waste, and kinda annoying to see you missed something big and have to do a re-do over.

Yes and no.
While some events will play regardless of choices (sister call and subsequent arrival for example) others will be left to the player's choice. If you don't like your sister's character and don't want to spend time with her you simply won't choose "Family Time" when available. This will of course have conseunces in Trip to Seattle too and on any following event involving her.

I understand the game's an alpha and content is scarce, but I need to see the whole picture, where skipping "Family Time" won't have gameplay consequences but only story ones. I can't program the game to force you play things and then remove that because it's too prone to mistakes and bugs while the game grows. I did something similar for two examinations, Katia and Mark, which will be available only if you hired some specific staff members but are right now playable nonetheless, but don't expect something similar to story arcs, it would become a real mess as updates go live.

I have it...but it's very ugly...and haven't had a chance to clean and update it. I started work on my game shortly after doing 4.c on this. Haven't had any time to get back to this.

I have another crash instance when examining the boy and his mum. Playing 0.0.5c

Try the attached file to fix that.

I never said that. Where have you read this?
Besides there are 9 examinations available and 3 story arcs. For a three months old game I'd say it's enough content, even compared to other more important productions. :)

I send error not to bother but just to report it.
Should i sent it to your pvt box instead? maybe in the future with your permission...only possible errors, no spam of course.
Or here just let me know.

You can also write to bugs [AT] brunimultimedia.com, thank you.

That error is known but I really don't know what to do with it. It's the very same achievement code I use on every other one. And it works perfectly on my pc... I think I'll just remove it.

Or google thinks you're very sick, or a hypochondriac ;)
Btw, @Bruni Multimedia a hypochondriac or an addict trying to get narcotics could be interesting patients
