Reactions to 0.14:
Thanks a lot for the post, always very fun to read.
I made the changes you mentioned, good call. In fact, in general you are very spot on story wise. Some great memory there.
As for the university event playing twice, it's because some people were able to unlock it earlier than intended in 0.13 thus I recoded it with a bunch of extra blocks so people didn't have to restart the game thus being it played once more in 0.14.
The Dark Path Gary race event already got a rewrite which will go live in the next version. We'll pay attention to some other things you mentioned as well and tweak it accordingly. Small stuff like Eric being at the uni instead of a higher up guard or Alex is simply because they have a more important jobs than sticking around holding guard.
Things like the Mayor on television being at the uni is because it's a day 110 event.
The journal stating unlock chapter 3 for everyone is a decision I made for players not to ignore certain character and also prep work as I'm sure everyone will get a new event in the upcoming version. Same reason the Mayor has a few events listed in Grace's journal page, her being a neutral character unlisted in the journal means many players won't see those events. Same for the TV events and a bunch of others. Making completely new pages for a few events is not really worth the hassle IMO.
Fun fact: Stella was originally meant to be the journal. In version 0.1 and 0.2 she would give hints on where to go and what to do. That's why when I don't know where to put certain events I just add them to Stella's journal page.
The phone works fine as long as you click on the phone screen itself. I did want the names to show color but couldn't really get it to work as I wanted. Maybe I'll go back and mess around with it again since a couple of upcoming events will make use of the same system.
Lastly, The Boss not wearing a mask in that particular scene is an oversight which I will remake for 0.15. He's meant to be as anonymous as possible with only very few exceptions.
