Getting a bit concerned here... Last night I played the new release a bit. Want to play some more right now. Game isn't opening up no matter how many times I try to. Thought it may have been a Ren'py issue, but other Ren'Py games are opening fine. Restarted and that didn't help. Deleted the game and reloaded... Still nothing. Very weird.

think i had that problem before, game got issue when persistent grew too big, i had to delete once before and soon will have to again, cause cant load game without restarting it , it crash, so just delete persistent , all the data is in saves so you dont lost anything beyond skip (ctrl) function


DELETE the Persistent file in these two folders (Save & AppData).
Try to start the game again.

Save folder... (Holiday Island/game/saves)
AppData folder (C: user/***/AppData/roaming/RenPy/Island-1499865023)*** your user id
you can backup it before just in case its not that , but you have to remove it from both locations.

Was anyone able to progress with the "Find out more about Sara's experiments" quest? I'm at the point where I should talk with Joy to make sure that Sara's doesn't accidentally hurt herself but I can't get an appointment or anything similar :(

It's an issue where the persistent file in your game folder is not the same as the one that is stored in the AppData section.
So not being the same causing the game not to load.

Something with the persistent file and the newer renpy version.
Yes, other games do not have this problem, but not many games have upgraded to the newer version of renpy and also probably being VN's don't really use the persistent file for much.

You don't, Sara chooses when she wants to take the pills, so is sort of a random event success.
You will know when she has taken them as she will also decide to have a change in outfit ;)
I did notice!
Now how to unlock the last scene?
She never seems to be alone at the bar ... I've tried for 3 months in game time now
Help again !

The trick is... when down to one or two more girls with Sara send them off to get changed into some other clothes.
that will leave just you, Sara, and Yumiko (who is bartending and so will not count to the alone requirement) to get the last scene.

Found another problem.
At the nightbar with 3 girls.
I have an appointment now to play poker with Joy.
I go there but the 3 girls pictures are in the foreground in front of the poker screens so I bail out.

I had the same problem - for now roll back to night bar. Instead of going to Joy's office choose another site (ie - player's room) and then choose Poker w/Joy. This will get rid of the foreground of the girls. I'm sure DH will correct in the next update.
