I should be able to figure it, if I can't, I'll make a post. Main problem is me being rusty and not having touched SugarCube/JS at all for a long time (all the "coding" I do in my day job is some simple Python/R/STATA/SAS).
Thanks for the encouragement. I do personally feel bad about not delivering, but it's not conductive to worry about it - my emotions are a bit out of whack and I kind of regret my comment where I lashed out by now.
I don't think so? Last time I checked, there were basically none, which is also a big part of the reason I ended up writing this. Glad to hear you liked the story!

I'm sorry for any inconvinience I may cause, my words was never directed at you personally.
It's just really annoying when some hypocrites declares that it's wrong for people who gave someone their money to await something back from that someone. If I take money from someone I consider myself in debt till I do the thing I was paid for. And those who pay me money have every right to whine or be angry at me if I don't do it in time. For me it's what paying in advance means.
I'll stay on topic further, sorry again.
Precognition? A super power? It seems like you really did know it would be updated, that's quite amazing...
I think I've seen you comment on it before, glad to see you're still interested in it ^^ If you've forgotten the story, you can just start over - that's a slight benefit of my snail-pace release speed.
There are a couple of types of relationships where money is exchanged. "Pay for service" is only one of them. "Let me buy you a coffee" is another.
I'd gladly buy the author a coffee. He doesn't owe me anything in return.
If you feel always "in debt" when someone gives you money, you'll always be a slave to money.
The girl on the cover is cute! It's why I opened the game. Normally I'm not rly too much a fan of text game, but I decided I will try your game because I like the tags and the description.
Honestly in most text games, even in visual novels I skip through, but yours was basically the first where I read everything! You're a pretty talented writer I have to say and I really like the story. Hope you can continue working on it...personal life has priority though of course. 
Excellent writing and good usage of specific detail to set a scene. You show great care in where you give detail and when you leave something ambiguous for the reader and the end result helps bring the reader into immersion with your setting. It also begs some curiosity of your background considering the included details of this story (write what you know and what not) and I find myself compelled to continue reading when you update next. I come from a very different lifestyle (blue collar, poverty, deadly health condition) and yet when I play through this I feel like a young man of a rich background forced into growing up to make sure his sister has the best future possible. Thank you for letting me experience this world and I eagerly await to read the conclusion of this tale.
No, because my slow release pace I'm only working on the main route now. I still have a collection of notes for that path but it's not written out. That path doesn't really suit my personal tastes so it's not a priority for me (though I do want to write it at some point, because it could be challenging/fun to go out of my comfort zone).Just out of curiosity, is the "stern" path viable now? I remember asking years ago, Idk if something changed in the meantime
I know, sorry. Thanks for checking back in on the game, though.Too bad, I liked the choice and the possibility of an alernative playthrough

She's cute indeed. Let me know if you liked it; thanks for giving it a chance.
I grew up poor too, luckily if I ever have children they won't have to worry about that—it's not fun, and it was my primary drive during childhood to work hard and crawl out of it (of course, it doesn't just involve working hard—everyone's circumstances are different and some luck is required).
The childhood described here is purely a figment of my imagination, in fact, I had considered an alternate setting where you were downtrodden, broke and abandoned by your parents, but it was too dismal and just too negative of an atmosphere.
Not to mention I wouldn't be able to incorporate any of the swimming which I enjoy writing about (both because it's my hobby, and because I believe it's a good setup for exciting scenes) because it is a very expensive hobby ^^.
I'm really happy you liked the game this much, consider leaving a review if you want—I rely on the reviews to convince people to give the game a shot. A lot of people don't like text-only games, and having a high average score makes them try it despite their dislike. Of course, not everyone is going to like it in the end but some of them will.
I'm alive, yes. I remember you commenting on the game in the past, thanks for continuing to follow the development!

I liked it a lot! I didn't expect to like it very much, but I finished the game already. I don't think I ever read that many words in a row I love the sister, she's so cute. I hope you keep writing about her more, I don't like the other girl as much.
I'll leave a review too since you asked.

The game is awesome! I am a reader myself and have played plenty text-based games myself, the only complaint I have would be that the game now is way too short. Story wise, I like the idea of having the other girl around to interact with even if I were to choose the sister instead. Having the final decision on day 6 (or is it just a placeholder?) seems like a bad idea tho unless you are planning on something else. It would make the story more interesting to have a bit more struggle in between imo. keep up the good work!
