Hey all,
It's been about a month since the release of Episode 4. I really hope you all enjoyed it! In the meantime I've been checking the feedback, making small bug/typo fixes, updating the translations, and dealing with other stuff that generally follow a release.

Of course I've also started development on Episode 5. For now it's mostly setting up the episode's base outline, and starting with the first few scenes. I have a bunch of fun ideas in store for you guys this time around as well, so please look forward to it.

One thing I want to talk about now is the weekend scenes. As you know, every time you do a weekend activity you gain a star in said activity, and it follows that the next update to the weekend events would have the 5th (and final) star for most of the activities. It probably doesn't come as a surprise, but I've always wanted the 5th level to contain a lewd scene. While these may not be the largest lewd scenes, it still means a lot of work what with setting up (and animating!) 8 different lewd scenes. This is why the plan is as follows:

• The next update (episode 5) will not contain any new weekend events, but instead focuses entirely on the main story.
• After that I'll do an update specifically focused at finishing off the weekend scenes. So, something like an episode 5+ update, containing no new main story stuff.

Doing it like this allows me to focus on the main story right now, while also doing justice to the weekend scenes finales. I already have an idea for how to implement this properly, so it won't detract from the experience or anything.

Anyways, as for Episode 5, I won't be revealing a lot before the release (to nobody's surprise ^^), but you can look forward to seeing a lot more of a certain someone that was absent in episode 4.
Have a great weekend everyone!

MC not confiding in mom is understandable. Did you tell your parents your (dirty) secrets? It can be embarrassing even if they find out by accident. Let alone, as you noted, if mc doesn't talk about personal stuff with practically anyone apart from Marianne in some cases.

of course I understand that point, it's just that the whole situation put a lot of pressure on her mentally and she had no one to talk to and she didn't seek help (emotionally), in this situation the best option was her mother, as I mentioned anna is shown as an open minded person who fully supports the mc, obviously it is not going to be easy but after the accident I think she had time to realize that the chances of her situation being reversed were very slim, her case is unheard of, I understand that she wants to think positively about the situation giving herself hope but she also had to start confronting her situation and accept it.

She also overheard her mom and Vivian talking bad about lesbians and calling them dykes when she was younger and didn't stick around to find out her mom didn't really understand what that meant so she had a reason to think her mom was not OK with it.

yeah that is true, it is the "justification" that the dev put so that she would not tell her that she was a lesbian, but that was several years ago and she herself says that deep down she knew that her mother was not prejudiced, she has been living with her all her life I think she can tell if her mother had problems with being a lesbian, besides anna has certain actions that make you think that she may have previous experiences with a woman or at least had a sexual attraction to a woman.

I had an idea in another thread, but here it fits better.
The mc has copious amount of cum and of premium quality no less. She could take an advantage of her situation and make bank. Sperm bank, to be precise. Or open a fertility clinic. "Problem with getting pregnant? Come to our clinic. We offer a personal touch."

hahahahahaha I had the same idea in the face of the crisis she can earn money and help to repopulate the world, also if the client wants direct deposits are made from the source

Of course I've also started development on Episode 5. For now it's mostly setting up the episode's base outline, and starting with the first few scenes. I have a bunch of fun ideas in store for you guys this time around as well, so please look forward to it.

I wonder what will happen on the route where the mc doesn't go with Farah to find Lisa, will he let her die? xd

When he says " episode 5+ update, containing no new main story stuff. " Does this mean there is going to be 2 chapter 5 updates. First 1 be main story no weekend events then part 2 would be just basically adding in the weekend event and whatever else.

Yes that's what it says the first update is all main story stuff then the next one will be the finales for the weekend events. Im guessing in episode 5 the the player will be doing something on the weekend so we won't get the weekend event then it will probably end going into the weekend so the weekend update just picks up right where the first part left off.

okay thanks what I wanted to assume just was a bit confused since most devs usually say Chapter 5 part 1 / part 2. when they do a split like that. So when I saw Chapter 5 + and reading the other info was a tad confused

Yeah part 1 is the main story and part 2 is the weekend

Good morning!
Could someone please help me with this error below?

My current version of the game is 0.4.1 and the error occurs in the scene where Jane picks up her cell phone to send a message to LUCAS: Episode 4.

The first error was resolved by IGNORING IT TWICE, but when Lucas replies to the message on his cell phone, the error returns and there is no point in ignoring it.

Any solution?

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "renpy/common/000statements.rpy", line 461, in execute_pause
    renpy.pause()
  File "game/phone.rpy", line 701, in execute

EDIT:

I found the solution to the problem.
If anyone encounters a similar error when using the cell phone to talk to Lucas, just update the mod: HavingAHardTime_0.4.1_scrappyMod

I feel like episode 5 will have a greater focus on Himiko as she was absent in the current episode but then there is the ethics teacher who was also not present in the episode, so I wonder if we could have some interaction with her in episode 5?

I hope it is Himiko, But it also could be the teacher discovering are MC's secret.
(Remember that depending on which route you took, there could Four others that know of her secret)

I don't think ethics teacher is a main girl, and more of a side girl, so I think the QQ was talking about Himiko having a big role, but I think there might be a chance for her to have a little something.. I expect a lot of Lisa, Hannah, and maybe a little bit of marianne(maybe not, this one is more hopeful), mom, and eve and her family, in the next chapter.

Lisa story is so tragic mane...

Lisa story is so tragic mane...

I think they went too far with the tragic aspect. I'm surprised she hasn't become a serial killer or is in a mental institution because of so much trauma. I hope they also explain how she managed to continue living and get into university.

The police or child care institution might have found relatives of the father or mother that could take care of her and gave them the custodie. After that it's simply a question of being a good student and getting grants or loans and going to live in the dorms.

That would be the straightest and most boring answer, easy to assume for now, but yes it's a part of her life that will need some exploring. Perhaps since the game doesn't look like it will be a full blown harem her expanded backstory will be a "reward" for focusing on Lisa.
