It's finally here!!! Now introducing… *Once Again* Chapter 1!
Hey Loopers! This release has been absolute hell to get out, with so many mistakes, issues, and errors. I'm very happy we are finally able to deliver it to you, with no further delays.
Due to the delays (as well as with consent from Patreon members)we decided to release Chapter 1 as five dollars for all- and as a bonus, the prologue will be available for free as a demo.
Speaking of the prologue,
one piece of bad news from this update is that due to reworking the stat system a bit, the saves from the prologue are not compatible with the new release, meaning you will have to play the prologue again. 
Fortunately, as Zult in my server said, "That's just skipping over 5 minutes of content", so I don't think it will be much of an issue for you guys. So, rev up those control keys, gamers!
**Also, as well as saves, another thing has been removed for those who haven't seen it; "persistent_alternate" content is now gone. Even before the whole Itch/PayPal debacle, I've been thinking it was messing with the story I was trying to tell, so I wanted it removed.**
Another big thing I want to say is that this update is still going to feel more "Slice of Life" over thriller, or mystery, or anything of the like. The mystery is still going to be there, and will advance, but this update (and the next) will have a lot to do with meeting the characters, getting used to them, and just having fun; in the background, however, a lot of pieces will fall together. While I cannot 100% say I have EVERYTHING about this story planned out, I do have a lot of the major story beats planned out.** This also means a lot of the things in the story you may view as "weird" or "off" may be that way on purpose. This doesn't excuse instances where my writing isn't great; but I think you may be able to pick up on small, strange things, or even draw your own conclusions. I'd love to see your guys' theories on the story and characters!**
**And lastly, I know this release has taken a long time, and like I said there were many mistakes; however, these are mistakes I do not intend to repeat, and would like to learn from this release instead of mentally drowning in my mistakes. I apologize for the wait, big time, and you guys have been amazing in terms of support, and I'm lucky to have fans and friends like you guys.**

I've been stressing out about this update for the past 11 months, and I'm so so happy to finally be able to release it to you guys.
