Is there a reason why despite having multiple mental levels the first level is not fullly implemented yet?. I would think it would be fully implemented before beating Rose and going to another mental level which is understandably not finished.
Well, one good example is where you need to change a core memory to change her favorite colour, some of the outer thoughts/beliefs are tied to the inner thoughts/beliefs, and for things like her relationship with Richard, it wouldn't make any sense at all to be able to change her "evening outing relationship" to Richard from George without making some MAJOR changes to how she perceives the world and her place within it. Changing her appearance, her hobbies, where she derives happiness, these alone wouldn't be enough to get Aura to have Richard in her room alone with her of her own free will, and certainly not over George, so you need to go deeper to affect her surface level beliefs, because the reasons for them are rooted deeper within her. Now for stuff like tanning, wearing piercings, etc, i suspect that these are a mix of lack of CG's and the work involved in changing all later scenes including Aura's changes, and will trickle in as we move forward as patreon goals are filled, artist work is commissioned, worked on, and filled out, and the scenes are written, implemented, bugfixed, re-implemented, etc. I haven't personally seen the planned workflow charts, or however Aura-dev does plans the project, but if i had to guess i would guess it's likely this with a dash of what they'd prefer to work on and a pinch of what patreons polls/votes request them to work on next(which i believe if you wanted a say in then it'd be like 20$ a month?)
Also apparently we're like 600$ a month off of the Dev quitting their job(when contract ends in 3 months at earliest) as the patreons at CA$5,957.45 of CA$6,587.90 for that goal, and in addition they'll change the reinvestment rate from 1:5 going directly into the game to 3:5, so basically if anyone here has some money(per month) to throw around and wants to see this game development go faster, consider throwing the dev some cash so they can really commit to it
