Hey, sorry you're having this issue.


If anyone is stuck in language selection, you can bypass this by opening script.rpy and deleting --> jump languange_chooser
under label splashscreen

Nishka could you make a wtmod/update for zinacke's mod for this as well? Since zinacke is incognito for a long time now.

What was the issue with the old mod? I've just run the game through with it, it worked except that small error in scene 77 and of course the missing few changes in chapter 7? I've made a new one, in the process of testing it rn, but if there was something else giving problems I've not run into them atm, so please inform me if there was something else.

Seeking Closure Walkthrough and Cheat mod v0.8.0

The bugfix (25. April), from the dev. has been included since it's incompatible with the mod.

Updated to version 0.8.0: 26 April, 2025

Updated the mod to a different version, see below for change log 20 June 2025:

However very important info: I've changed the mod to be installable without having to delete chapters as before, but due to this you have to start the game over, you can't use old saves with the new mod working. Old saves will run in non-modded version.

Furthermore due to the same change as above, the gallery will now be based on the mod's new files, so you'll have to unlock them again by watching them in game, or rename the included file org_replay_setup to replay_setup and overwrite. Then you'll get the previous unlocked scenes, but no newly unlocked scenes will be added to the gallery this way.

Sorry for this inconvenience, but I suggest if you plan to use the mod make a new save...

Hope you enjoy the mod and as always if there's any issues or something you think is missing, just throw me a DM or reply to this post.

Cheers

No big issues as of now. Just that the mod isn't updated for v7.1 and I'd rather not use an old mod (v7.0) in a new game version, often causes problems for me.

why is the cheating tag missing? every single sex scene in the present timeline depends on the mc cheating on his gf

It's probably because no one cares, they only care when it is the protagonist getting cheated on.

You can report the game yourself to have the tag added.

You have your timelines all screwed up. So far, I've only encountered one path in the present timeline you can cheat, that being with Katy. Yet EVERY encounter is optional. Talking isn't cheating. Hell, you can't even argue that it's emotional cheating in the present timeline.

Three years have passed and you and Julia are together in the present timeline. You go back on a vacation to decide whether you can move on and marry Julia or if you can't let go of the past.

To the dev - I'd argue there are two big problems with this format. First, we currently have 100x more time in the past timeline, meaning we really don't have as strong of a connection with Julia as we do the other LI's. Meaning Julia is inevitably going to less important to the player. Second, as sisco pointed out, we're being given the opportunity to cheat on Julia long before we know what actually transpired in the past. It doesn't really fit the story you're telling. How badly did things really end 3 years ago that the relationship(s) were irredeemable? With Katy, the relationship could end due to you cheating shortly after you cheat on Julia with Katy. Why would she take you back when she knows you're cheating again?

Good points, and while I certainly wouldn't expect you to read through 38 pages of posts, I can promise you the "we don't really have enough time with Julia" point has been brought up a lot. I don't think I was the first one to do it but I definitely brought it up before. I agree 100% that this is a terrible format to bring a forced relationship into but it's going to be hard to make adjustments without some kind of story remaster and that's not ideal. I like the story and I'm sticking with it to see how it goes but hopefully it's a learning experience for the dev.

I forget if the dev said what he is gonna do but I think he said he plans to change the Julia part at some point cause he realized his mistake just not sure when he was planning on doing it. I know he talked about 3 options Id have to search the thread to find the post feeling to lazy for that

The scene where you can cheat on Julia with Katy has both the MC and Katy simply giving into their emotions and not thinking clearly about what they're doing. That isn't a point-of-no-return moment for people who want to be on Katy's path, just a source of potential drama for those who can't keep it in their pants for long enough to break up with Julia first.

As already mentioned, the imbalance between the past and present timelines has been brought up a lot and I previously explained why fixing it isn't exactly feasible (in short, you can't spend a lot of time in the present since you first need to make choices in the past that affect the present-day situation).

I've definitely been making a lot of mistakes with how I've structured "Seeking Closure" and most of them would simply take too much work to be fixed properly. I hope the story I'll tell will be satisfying enough, but my main goal is to learn as many lessons as I can from this project so that my second VN (if I'm lucky enough to make one) is a significant step up across the board.

I was way more critical about it the first time I popped in here back in 0.4 or so. You've won me over with the story and I'm more than willing to give you benefit of the doubt when it comes to "fixing" whatever you need.

 

[Anteron]

In any case, hopefully it's a learning experience for your next game. It's a great game for a first try - some mistakes as expected, but you're keeping it going rather than abandoning like so many.

I am getting error as my PC try to run the game. Is it because of mod or game?
