Very enjoyable update, and really glad it's all in one game now (sort of) and that it has chapter select! But... it seems like the parts aren't connected? Finishing the Pilot still dumped me onto the main menu (and I assume The Beetrayal part 1 does the same). This feels a little odd, if you want them to be separate episodes, that is up to you, but maybe bringing the player to a continue menu would feel less jarring? (my personal preference would be to go right into the next segment (less button clicks), maybe with a title screen or something). But, up to you.
Also, at some point you might consider making the UI more uniform across the whole game (i.e. quest button only in the phone in the Pilot, but next to the phone in the other two chapters). And, again at some point, a replay gallery would also be great. Yes, some people will use it to skip plot, but that is there lose and a benefit for everyone else. Replays in Renpy are very easy.
The Tricia/Jerry event was unexpected, but I liked it. Not something I have really found elsewhere, and I enjoy new takes the most (vs re-treads of the same thing). Although I would love to see what Summer and Tricia get up to.
I am a little disappointed in the no pregnancy subplot, but very much understand why. I've teased it hard, but have yet to deliver on it (for numerous reasons). This is a good way to say "this isn't a thing coming soon", rather than stringing people along with a hope that might not manifest.
Overall, still liking it, still want more! Keep up the great work!
