Not currently, at the moment it's a linear story with some choices that will affect what scenes you see, but in future it will be somewhat free roam.Hi, so this VN pop up on my feed but I have the exclude tag sandbox, but collectibles? Does that mean some sort of free roam?
I found one when you are at the end with Cassie, She says False are you awake? instead of the characters name. Other than that keep up the good work!Well technically this release was a patreon only release that seems to have been leaked. I was aware this was gonna happen eventually regardless of what I do, so I figure I might as well just treat everyone as players. Since this was an early access update, it won't have as much content as a public release which will be several of these rolled into one at a point where the story has been progressed to a new part, so to speak. (Currently as of this update, we're in "Part 1: New beginnings" which I realised I forgot to actually write anywhere in the game, so I'll be fixing that in the next update.)
That said, at the moment the reason for the releases being shorter is that I have a full time job on top of this and so can only spend a couple of hours a day on it at best. If I was wanting to release each update as a full length few hours of content, it would probably be several months between releases, and I don't want people thinking I've stopped working on it. It's a fine line I think. Of course I do update people on patreon, but I figure actions speak louder than words.
If this ends up being successful enough that I can afford to work full time on it , then lengthier updates can be expected. (Fingers crossed ;D It's so much more fun than my actual job, but I think I'm quite a way away from that at the moment.)
This makes sense, I hadn't really thought about it. I will do this.
Thanks man, I'm glad you liked it. It's cool to see it in someone's signature
On a side note, has anyone had any bugs in this version that weren't present in the first version? I haven't heard of any, but I like to try to iron those out as soon as I can.
Oh shit, I know why that is. I'll fix that. Thanks for letting me know.I found one when you are at the end with Cassie, She says False are you awake? instead of the characters name. Other than that keep up the good work!
Huh, thanks for letting me know. I wasn't the one who posted the links for this leaked version, but since it's leaked anyway I might as well update the link.Mega Link v0.11 for Linux is incorrect. It is the mac version.
At that point the game locks out input until you text Riley to check if she has somewhere to stay. You just need to go back to your messages and select her to progress it. I'll be putting in an arrow prompt or something in the next update as I was fairly sure someone would get stuck on this part. Let me know if that fixes it.The messaging system seems to be some complicated stuff... I don't know what else am I to do in this. Its stuck, this is just after the first talk with Taliya on the phone and just after talking with Dad that he'd be working overtime again. I keep clicking on anything, its not progressing.
Sorry I really don't get it, I keep getting back and reloading again I'm not seeing any texts with Riley. How exactly should I do this? The order on what I'm seeing here isAt that point the game locks out input until you text Riley to check if she has somewhere to stay.

Sorry I really don't get it, I keep getting back and reloading again I'm not seeing any texts with Riley. How exactly should I do this? The order on what I'm seeing here is Riley texts the MC, then Taliya, and MC text's Dad. In what order is it supposed to happen? Its even strange too, because there no dialogue that says I should text Dad. I just kept on clicking until I encountered that MC needs to talk to Dad.
I'll check out your save, but since the clock is still at 22:00 on that screenshot, I think you've still got to speak to your dad and Taliya, before you can text Riley. Are they still highlighted blue?View attachment 1839146
Here, I keep on clicking here in Riley's but there nothing happening. The MC didn't mention anything in the dialogue about messaging Riley too.
My save is attached here.
Alright, I did as you have described. I don't know the reason but after the talk with Taliya and Dad, the clock is still 22:00. And yes, my screenshot from earlier is just after I talked to both Taliya and Dad, they're not highlighted anymore.

Ok, try this save.Alright, I did as you have described. I don't know the reason but after the talk with Taliya and Dad, the clock is still 22:00.

Edit: I mean Cassie, I'm confusing the characters.
Finally working! Thanks for the fix! I'll continue playing for now.Ok, try this save.
I think I found the issue, basically the game thought you still had one more text to read, and so it wasn't progressing. Not sure why but I'll try to solve that. Let me know if this save works. View attachment 1839161
Of course you'll need to remove the 1839161_ off the front of the filename for it to work.
It's probably related to rollback. I thought I'd ironed out the issues with texting and rollback, but I may need to make it a bit more bulletproof.
Just as a point, in this update you can't get all the scenes without using saves. Make a save when you have the choice whether or not to bring up the texts. Based on the choices you've already made, you won't have to go back any further than that to see all the scenes.Finally working! Thanks for the fix! I'll continue playing for now.
Glad you liked it Seems like you're a fan of the more romantic wholesome side of things, so I'm happy to report that I'm not gonna be neglecting that side of things. I like that stuff too, but I also like the darker stuff depending on my mood, so I'm gonna do both as best I can and let people choose how they wanna treat each girl. Thanks for playing.This update have good stuff in it! The last moment between Cassie and John though... amazingly sweet. Praise be to wholesome shit! I'm excited to see him protecting his girls, and of course, more romance for both Cassie and Riley. Which will include Taliya, until we know more. Anyway thanks for the save fix and for the update!
Moreover, I really liked that awareness right at the end when I finally discovered the wet dream. On how you emphasized on how some of the choices works for future content.
Yep, just cuz you like to be wholesome doesnt mean you cant switch things up a little sometimes. As long as everybody is having a good time.Glad you liked it Seems like you're a fan of the more romantic wholesome side of things, so I'm happy to report that I'm not gonna be neglecting that side of things.
