sadly it doesn't, cuz every new save will do the exact same thing. had that problem with another game, ever new version i can't load the saves making saving at all completely and utterly pointless as the only way to proceed is to start over and over and over and over ad nauseum.
ask other devs that do not have this trouble what did they do to make it work correctly.
I intent to ask other devs about this, that is a very smart thing to do.
Just to be clear here are you saying you have the same problem when you load a save from the same game version or when you load any save form any version to another?
My current understanding of the problem is that I somehow fucked up the names renpy gives to the statments I write and so he can't go back, in theory I would just need to try and not change the code in a way it does that and it should work. But again still trying to figure it out.
It needs more updates though, there still isn't much to explore
The game needs a lot of updates to be where I want it to be, I need to add random events, generic talks and stuff to do, story events, and much more. Currently my main focus is just getting some main locations done so I can actually start focusing on events.
If I was working on this full time I would probably be almost there to be honest but we get what we can right.
i think it needs more woman, more characters
the game is barely an alpha...it's like second or third release...it will take time...probably
Actually I think you will like the next version then because I will try to introduce the class/school to the player, so you will instantly get a bunch of new characters (They won't really be developed but you will get them)
