Some updates say part 1 and part 2 because the content within both are quite similar. However part 2 will always be the version to download, as it will contain part 1 as well
The game is updated twice a month. Because each update focuses on a different area of the game, Selebus labels them as part 1 and part 2, E.G. 0.12.0 part 2 updates to 0.13.0 part 1 which updates to 0.13.0 part 2 and next update (unless theres a bugfix) should be 0.14.0 part 1.
It's just a versioning number. You get the complete game.
I agree with you but I do think it kind of stands out in a game where otherwise, pretty much nothing is missable or optional. The game is extremely linear except for this one thing that you can easily fail to predict, and even if it is thematically in keeping with the game's storytelling, it isn't a good play experience exactly because you're otherwise completely on rails without any optional consequences to incur.
For the game to more or less have one meaningful choice with consequences and then ensure that in that one single choice it's quite possible you don't even realize there could be consequences is a feel-bad, even if it is story-appropriate. It's incongruous.

I think some people are misunderstanding the game, or perhaps underestimating the writer in some ways. I don’t think that whether a choice was the good or bad one, or whether there even IS a wholly good choice or not has very much yet to be seen, and can’t be measured with the immediate consequences.
For example, I’m like 90% certain that being a good homie to Rin will cause some other shit to hit the fan later on in the future. In fact for those who played 13pt2 might haven seen one possible way that could happen:
We still have a lot of story to go so I wouldn’t be so sure of anything right now. This stuff with Rin is likely only the beginning.

Keep in mind there are years of development left, it's pretty much guaranteed to happen again.
It also isn't the only incidence of the game fucking with the player by a long shot which, again, guaranteed to continue happening.
Edit:
I really think this game is best enjoyed if you lean into the writing rather than treating it purely as a game. While there is a gameplay loop, you aren't always going to be rewarded for engaging with it and sometimes that may not play out until a dozen updates later.
One thing I'm really looking forward to is watching people play this for the first time when it's finished just to see how that experience differs from ours. What Selebus has done better than any other developer I've seen on here is make the storytelling a part of the development process. One of the reasons I think a lot of people went after Chika first is they saw the pink event on her timeline and none on Rin's, it'll be interesting to see if more players catch the badhomie trap when the game is finished.

Exactly this. Betraying Rin does lock you out of some events even though she "forgives" sensei, but it also opens up one of the best written scenes in the game and gives Sensei his first actual consequence for his extremely unethical and illegal activities. Calling it a bad outcome may be true from a gameplay perspective but as a reader I'm enjoying both paths (although I haven't seen Rin's new events and probably won't until March).

If I have an extremely old save from when this game had like 2 updates, and have a lot of grinded out points, am I locked out of new content from the last several updates?
As long as you didn't do Chika's Schadenfruede event before the beach event, you should be good.

You should be fine. I can’t think of any problem that would cause.

Man, I can't break the wee Irish lass's heart, but...
At first, I wanted a Sensei, Rin, Futaba triangle, now I want a parallelogram involving Molly. Ah, fuck it, make it a dodecahedron/n-polyhedron with everyone, even Ms(Mrs?). Watabe.
You're welcome to do what you want man, but hoo boy you have no idea how much worse you just made it. Northern Ireland is a different country. One where border tensions have been extremely bad for a very, very long time.
At the end of the day, do what you want, I just felt I had to say what I had to say.
For comparison though, imagine the character is supposedly from Texas, speaks with a Boston accent, and you've just said they're from "Up near Ottawa".

I'm really happy to say I can finally afford to support this game on Patreon! Selebus, you've made such a great story so far and I'm excited to see where it goes.
Thank you for your help. I entered PRAISE GOD FOR YOU MUST HOPE TO BE HAPPY and it still said terminal not found.
That was a hint for something else.
There's a secret scene (I think trinity 3 but don't recall exactly) where you are explicitly told the IP address you need. The terminal users you have to enter in are also given to you in different scenes but I don't recall exactly where.
Wish I could be more helpful, it's been a while since I played that part. Wish I could give you the user too. I do remember it took me a couple tries to get it and the hidden scene, maybe 2 or 3 usernames.
Good luck.
Edit: Hope you figure it out
Edit edit: Going by the wiki the IP address is in Trinity part 3. I had to copy it into notepad

Thank you. I got the answer, it's very complicated so I edited my original request for help and added the solutions to the bottom.
Way to go! I remember how frustrating that section was and that was with 2 weeks of discussion as a guide, can't imagine how annoyed I'd be if I just got to it without any help.
Edit: You should spoiler tag that solution though

Grats on getting the answer, but you might wanna edit it again to give how/where you got the answer rather than just the answer itself. Selebus (the game dev) specifically has asked us not to share the exact answer, and sharing it has brought his wrath before, as you can see in the quote below.
That's why no one just listed off the answers for you.
Gonna level with you guys, I just looked through the code, found the event in question and used the conditions in the if statements when I couldn't work out what I needed to do (though I did have the IP written down)

For the record, Selebus specifically asked (in the scene you must have just read to get that answer), that people not post the answer. Too many people were skipping over the Happy Scenes because they were creepy.

You'll see the "aspects" when the time is right for them and we, the "dedicated" fans, don't necessarily consider everything one massive spoiler, some of us, myself included, are of the same mind as Selebus himself and would rather you find your own answers since the game gives them to you if you pay attention. The real hard no for me is leaked versions, no help for current patron versions until they become public is one of my core rules on this game. Selebus is sticking to what he wants, if he wants to stick with lust event only nudity, he can and should. If he doesn't mind a little nudity on the less sexual side, Rin's Delirium event, then I could see that IF he wants to. I don't mind either way with the quality of the overall game, he could strip the whole thing of nudity and sex and I would still play having experienced the quality of the writing. The division you see is mostly between the ones who want an H game or still see this site as a site specifically for H games and the ones who like the game as it is. I would normally be in the former group, but on this one I am in the latter group.
That isn't a grind issue, that's an issue with not going to the place or having the minimum number of days to trigger events that are needed for other events. The tracker doesn't need fixed, your method of playing needs fixed. Your grinding issue boils down to spending too much time on one girl raising her stats when there are other requirements needed on other girls. This is why it is suggested you grind them all equally.
And it will only get worse as the game develops over the next few years.
Lust events are entirely optional, actually. In fact, there are several events that can be turned red, AKA missed, in every category except main events, which are the only ones that are 100% mandatory, and future events do change depending on whether certain events were completed before, since it is entirely possible to trigger events out of order, and whether any were missed. Example, Rin's first event after the beach changes depending on whether you were a good or a bad homie to her.
That said, it is mostly linear right now as we are on a specific path that is the first of several to come and, in this case, I do believe the user you responded to has fallen into the 'needs another girl' scenario.
In fact, assuming he isn't already passed the beach event, he's going to have a rough time BECAUSE he did all that grinding. I know because I made that mistake in my first run before the beach event was in the game.
He means with the actual character, not a 'happy' scene representation like amiokay girl, who takes the form of Maya, but is not Maya as far as any of us know. With the slow build, I'm actually grateful Selebus took his time now thanks to Rin's last event in the current build. I'm not sure that moment could have felt nearly as satisfying if Selebus had rushed into it. In fact, I'm sure it would have been disappointing, but he completely avoided disappointment and we got an extremely satisfying end to leave off on for those of us who played that event last.
The second floor? You have to go up using the bottom option in the very first menu, DO NOT select talk to or knock on door type options or you will have to roll back to the initial dorm options.
Yes, so I suggest holding back with Chika.
Actually, it makes perfect sense. Why wouldn't Rin resent you for taking her chance away? It was you that betrayed her and took that chance from her on the bad homie path, but it was not you on the good homie path. The design is intentional, hence why it marks future events as red/missed if you betray Rin. You are supposed to be leveling each girl as equally as possible due to the requirements of some events so you don't get stuck anyway.
They are all included in every version, the part 1/part 2 thing is because each month is split into two releases now instead of just one.
Exactly, you hit the nail on the head.
There's actually quite a bit you can miss, but this is the only missable event so far that can be missed by making a wrong decision. There will likely be more in the future and, in fact, there is a theory on one already where Sana might keep her distance if you've already done stuff with Sara. There are also quite a few changes outisde of missable content based on the order events are played in or if you missed an event entirely. I suggest purposely going through the bad homie scenario at least once to see how Rin handles the aftermath in that case. Remind me to never make her angry, let's just put it that way. The ones that don't explode into emotional rage are much scarier to deal with than the ones who do.
This game is all about consequences, which will become much more apparent as it unfolds and eventually branches off into other routes. What we're on now is the 'dark' route with several more to be made in the future, several of those being ones where you don't necessarily want the good homie path because it might take you off of another girl's route when you're not going for Rin. You may HAVE to betray Rin to stay off her path, who knows.
Given the path we're on now, shit hitting the fan is inevitable. The only influence we really have is how it hits. I'm very certain there will be pain in her future and we will be the cause given that last Rin event, but I'm not sure it will be on the level of the Rin beach thing.
Indeed, that is the H game mentality, they were going for the pink events, pink often being associated with sexual events like the lust events in this game, and they did not pay attention to the possibility of consequences. Unfortunately, with H games, there very rarely are actual consequences. You might get the 'you were bad, don't do it again' treatment, but nothing lasting and truly impactful. With Lessons in Love, you get things like the bad homie scenario, where you don't get just told off, you lose things.
There are definitely going to be more bad homies throughout development and even as this game lies on this thread and in Selebus's Patreon and SubscribeStar and to them I say welcome to the brotherhood, most of us fell into that trap, some even before it existed.
Also, you say in March, are you aware Selebus is taking a break from the game? This past update was the last before that break, but he will be back.
I know, I can't decide between being overjoyed at the end of Rin's events so far or dreading what that will bring with Molly. I really don't want to break the poor girl's heart.
My favorites are christmasyay.mp3 and molly.mp3. The first is so energetic and happy and the second is so calm and peaceful. I honestly almost fell asleep mid game listening to it during Molly's events and only the game itself and my resolve to finish it kept me awake, it has that kind of calming effect. A bit of a fun fact, I managed to time one of her events that use molly.mp3 perfectly so that slight fade at the end was happening just as I was coming out of the event.
Unfortunately, it seems there is no information or it is in a different language, VLC normally displays in the title bar the actual name and composer info, but it didn't in this case.
