I REALLY wish these changelogs from the developer were a bit more detailed... chasing the new content every time is frustrating when you have no clue about it.
Look at the first post of this thread, you will find a post by me with the variables and commands.

I see everyone but the Aunt. Unless PETeacher is the Aunt, but that wouldn't be right.

You're kind of right, but I wanted to not say the details so you could look for it yourself and make the game a little more appealing.
I understand, but I think there can be some middle ground. Let me give some constructive criticism, I really like this game and would be glad to see it improved for the better.
Just to make an example, in this update you have new content with Mary if you try again to flirt with her (which is something you probably stopped doing after unlocking kissing and petting). The progressive nature of scenes - doing something enough times unlocks new content but after a while stops raising allure -makes going back to flirt kinda counterintuitive since Mary's path already progressed beyond it with not one but two different options, so people have to try everything out of desperation until they stumble into the new content.
Something like "new scenes with Mary during training" would leave the exact nature of the content for the player to discover but give an indication sufficiently precise to reduce the frustration from "I can't progress further with event X but still can't unlock anything new".
Another example: until now going to the law firm during weekends was a waste of 2 hours and nothing else. Without any indication people would continue avoiding doing that simply because they have no reason to think that it can unlock something, and miss content they could have easily found by themselves with just a tiny bit of clue.
Lastly, on the phone I often have a "you raised allure to maximum but there can still be content" message.
This is also frustrating because it seems to punish players for raising allure as much as they can, since in the next update they will miss part of the already rare hints to unlock events. I think this mechanics should be reworked to avoid that.
I played three times a day. I didn't go to work for a few days. I was dismissed. The second time I didn't go to school for a few days, I was dismissed. I worked and went to school in the restaurant three times a day. I occasionally changed rooms several times. My mother's strategy was almost the same, and it was a bad ending. Do I have to change rooms with them every day?
You must speak with police and lawyer to discover that your father has another family, and keep asking them until you get their address.
You can meet one of your stepsisters at the mall when mom sends you to the pharmacy, but you discover she’s your stepsis only later.
