I leave them uncompressed because I think people with >1080p monitors should be able to play PoP at full screen and not be staring at compression artifacts.

But there is lossless WebP compression that doesn't introduce compression artifacts...

There is free software that can instantly compress all images in a couple of minutes. I've been using that kind of software in the near past. Maybe that's an idea? Just saying.

And I just bulk converted the a1c1 images (322 images) from uncompressed to compressed and saved a whopping 2.54MB (497.88MB to 495.34MB). Or in other words 0.51%. If the same compression rates holds true for the rest of the images, and with the (CH17) size at 6.23GB, that's only a savings of 32.6MB.

...

Blah.

Dev, I think in Chapter 1, MC says "Oh, sorry for talking us about as an... Us." I think it should be "Oh, sorry for talking about us as an... Us" instead.

Chapter 2: "I told you I could take care myself" should be "I told you I could take care of myself"

Chapter 6: Emilia "I can't just...Sit here and recount everything horrible thing" should be "I can't just...Sit here and recount every horrible thing"
Maria "While you go do that, Emilia and I can can go bathe?" should be "While you go do that, Emilia and I can go bathe?
MC "You're not sure what's going," should be "You're not sure what's going, on"



General comments:
I think "bemused" is generally misused. It means "confused" but I think dev is using it as a synonym for "amused"

Don't mean to nitpick, but I think this VN has very high quality writing so just doing my part to make it even better? Most other AVNs I don't even bother because such mistakes are littered all over.

I appreciate it! If you're able to join my Discord, I have a spell check channel where this stuff can be posted and I can track it all. If not, I'll just work off of here and make the necessary corrections. :) Thank you!

Development Update #37
Yesterday
Hi everyone! Development is progressing as expected on Chapter 19. :) It should be out in late October, no exact date yet. Writing all the characters interacting with one another is always fun since they have such different personalities. Every scene is an opportunity to flesh them out a bit further and to have them play off one another. That sometimes leads them to slightly derail the story, but that's the fun of writing! Rendering them in a heavy forest like the Southlands, though.... That is a real pain with Daz. It takes literally 4-5 minutes just to preview a small lighting tweak, which is nothing short of aggravating. It's definitely something for me to keep figuring out and improving, because posing renders is probably 75%+ of the time I spend on game dev. Maybe I should do stick figures in a white void for the next game... TBD. :p

Hey, does Steam version have any kind of walkthrough?
I played it a while ago and remember that some choices wasn't very obvious, like to let Maria share with Emilia about sexual life with MC or not. Yeah yeah now it seems obvious that it is about harem or solo path, but it wasn't back then. I wanted to go solo with Maria but chose wrong probably)

I'm not being sarcastic when I say those are pretty much one of my favorite scenes, I mean just imagine how one would explain all that shit about elements to medieval people... I read a novel once where a guy goes back to the time of the crusades and teaches stuff similar to this, it was pretty great

Reminiscent of "Lest Darkness Falls" by L. Sprague De Camp.
