Just the 2 LI for now, I'm aiming for 'deep' connections rather than many


That's when the speaker is interrupted by the next speaker

It's more common to use an ellipsis in this situation (...). For example, "As I was saying, I..."

Using the ellipsis makes it more readable as it's easier to see.

Well there seems be many game errors for me to list with this title (using past saves). I even tried an older Ep3 save...and it still gave a ton of Ren'py white screen errors. Is the cause of these errors from changing MC's name from Jack to the players choice?

[code]
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/episode3.rpy", line 37, in script
    j "I don't think [jk] sleeps much at night, or very well. If at all"
KeyError: 'jk_name'

As mentioned on the front page, due to the ability to change jack's name now, you need to start a new game even if you don't change the name. Old saves before the change won't work.

Thank-you.

 

[kibaris]

well, i clearly didn't expected that from Jessie. Until now we could only see her like a little angel victim of Dylan and her mother but now, even if the mom part doesn't change and Dylan isn't a saint either, with this drug story the roles are practically reversed since it was not Dylan but Jewell who sent the letters and Jessie who used Dylan sending him in jail while she stays free. but i understand better her association with fox now ^^.

In the end though, how could Jewell have been found by her daughter if Dylan leave with her?

Good catch thanks. I need to make a hotfix

Foxy in more ways

whit pleasure . Even if I suspect that there is surely more in that story than what Dylan says but, without spoiling of course , will we have her version of the story later ?

She will come clean at some point but your choice here will have an impact on that.

Nice plot twist little foxy was the ring leader She needs a good spanking. Christa is best girl anyways
The scene with Jewel can use another path imo. Dylan shows you porn videos of Jewel. Just copy the videos and blackmail her to keep her quiet, or better yet fuck her.
Why beat them if you can fuck them should be our MC's motto.

 

[Havik79]

Funny update, nice and sweet, Jessie in that black dress and then the pink one, fucking dev is trying to give us a stroke.

Wait, what is Jessie supposed to have done?

Go back and hug Christa, just once I know you don't want to

Go back and fuck Christa, I won't tell Jessie

I see, oh well I will just deal with it, she's not my cup of tea.

 

[drifter139]

EchoFoxtrot Noticed that in the scene at the cafe, where Christa is thinking about messing up with MC, she uses Jack instead of player's chosen name in "She was never interested, but Jack doesn't know that." line. Also while Christa and Jessie are the only LIs, is there possibility of having some action with other ladies, i wouldn't mind that milf Helai?

that's because dev added the ability to change name but you have to start a new game to do it

 

[NeoEros]

Wow, talk about plot twist... Never would I imagine the sweet innocent Jessie to be the mastermind of the whole Dylan business. The dialogue between Jack and Christa's uncle was so well done I cant't help but roll back three times and read again. I wonder how many episode the dev has planned, since there're so many unknown questions, factions, and side-stories needed to elaborate.

 

[mmmonsterkill]

i like this game, it keeps forgetting what i named the protag tho.

I know, I'll fix it and try to double check next time

I'm really pleased to hear that. I rewrote it twice, MissFortune Also rewrote it twice until we got to the final version

 

[CamaroFan432]

Good game and story so far. I like both Christa and Jessie, I do have a thing for red heads, so it's right into my alley. The plot twist left me with many thoughts, and I doubt that Jessie is really the mastermind and former leader of a drug ring at a school. I think, her mother was it. That the mother manipulated and twisted Jessie's mind so long, that she did everything, that the mother told her, including selling drugs, "spending time" with Dylan and so on.

I saw the warning in the OP and started a new game, encountered no errors. But the choosen name was quite a few times replaced with "Jack". I could imagine, that you probably hard coded the name instead of the variable, should be easy to fix with search and replace. You will need to proofread your script though, there are some typos, I didn't make screenshots or notes about them, but they're there. Luckily nothing major, after reading the whole sentences twice, you can get, what it should be.

 

[Havik79]

Wait, hold the phone, you guys let the blackmailer bitch and the asshole live, sickos.

I want a redemption arc for the MC. I don't think going around killing people just for petty things can end well. So I always try to deescalate the situations the game throws my way but I don't know if the dev/writer is planning multiple endings or just one.

Multiple endings.

I track all choices in 2 separate ways
