There we go. Day Selector on the main menu, Game Day added to saves (only applies on new saves, but you can open, re-save at the exact same spot and the name will update), and Current day displayed.

Also updated "Start" to "New Game" (not shown here) and Moved "AutoMenu" into a sub page of preferences (as I doubt people are changing the options enough to warrant it's own main menu button).

Day Selector has been full migrated out of Do Over, as having a button on the main menu means there is no need for a redundant button on the Do Over page.

Still thinking about the mindblower page.

I started this and it seemed like it skipped a narrative that was making sense to start doing the ENTIRE Planetina episode almost word for word. It's asinine.

I've already talked about the Planetina content pretty extensively in the Unity game thread (here), so I wont dig deep into it again. She does come a bit out of nowhere, but also, it half works as a rebound from Tricia rejecting Morty just before that. As I've also said, while I found it an interesting experiment by Ferdafs (to do a sort of "what if" or "behind the scenes" riff on an existing episode), I personally don't really care for Planetina as a character and her content was just so-so. It's also a path I hope we don't keep going down (once was nice, but I don't want it to be the norm).

Still, it is the content I have, so it gets included here too. And I really enjoyed the Beth stuff at the end, so that makes up for it. As to making sense, sometimes I question if any of this game really makes any sense...

Remind me again because it's been ages since I watched the older seasons but how often has Tricia appeared throughout the show? I think I remember the first time in season 2 I think that's where you learn she's into the piss stuff, but I can't remember specifically after that, I think the most recurring women in the show was always Summer and Beth (naturally) and I think after them should be Jessica?

The Planetina stuff started for me after a single sleep at the very beginning of the game so I'm not even sure I got that far. I'll keep going though or maybe just start over as I only played for maybe 20 minutes anyway.

Uhhhh, okay, well that sounds like a huge bug I've never encountered before. The Planetina content is WAY out on like day 34, so you certainly shouldn't have jumped right into it. What does that first "Day" page say for you? And any chance you could give me the steps that got you there?

In the mean time, you "should" (at least I hope so), be able to use the built-in day selector system to ensure you go to the right spot. Just before you sleep (or from anywhere really) open the menu, click "Do Over" in the bottom corner click "Day Selector" and click day 1. Hopefully that should set things to the right spot.

I'll look through the code today as well and try and figure out how the heck a huge skip like that even possibly happened... bugs, yay...

Edit:
I just reviewed the code and have no idea how something like that is even possible. Just to be clear, you went from the line: "You dash towards it, but the portal closes before you can get there." (technically, the last line is Morty screaming "AAA", but that is less descriptive), hit a day change screen, and then the next line is: "When you get home you find your mother standing at the door looking angry."?

Tricia is very much a background character that we know very little about show wise. I'd have to re-watch to find her first appearance (or just use google it I guess... which says first appearance is in S3 "The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy", wow, I thought she showed up WAY earlier). Ferdafs has greatly expanded her character from just a few lines here and there (something I really think Jessica needed as well, but w/e).

But yes, Beth and Summer appear most often in the show (which is why so much of the game content is around them, they are both the characters we know the most about and are the most attached to as a audience), then Jessica, who appears in the pilot episode, but doesn't have very much development at all. Beyond that, most female characters usually show up for an episode or two then vanish (Annie, Arthricia, Unity, Planetina, Stacy, Kiara, Nancy, the unnamed girl from vat of acid, everyone on Gazorp). I'm sure someone has worked out character screen time somewhere (because internet), but yeah, very few reoccurring female characters in the show.

I like the idea, and the art is pretty good, but kenta16807 is correct, Morty's size is too small, making it look like Reka and Tricia's butts are HUGE. I'm not sure I can write the interaction into the scene in a believable way (I'll give it some thought tomorrow and try a rough draft), but I'm willing to give it a try if you want to give the art another pass.

Next time, just a few sample images and a downloadable zip file would be much preferred, right clicking and saving images 1 at a time is sort of a mess.

Thanks for both the hard work and concept on it! I'm looking forward to seeing the next pass!
