This post will be periodically updated as bugs are reported and fixed, and new builds are uploaded.

Thank you for your diligence in helping us make the game more stable, and easier to access!

May 8, 2023:

• Removed a few stray instances where Social Battery would drain depending on choices. This was a remnant of the original idea we had, but had to be cut due to time constraints.
• Fixed a bug where the group conversation in Chapter 1 would deplete your Social Battery by 4 instead of 1! 😬
• Fixed a bug where you could not advance to Chapter 10 after the Chapter 9 reflection.
• Made the reflection cutscene faster. The animation now speeds up if you complete dialogue before it finishes.
• Added an "EXPERIMENTAL" label to Scene Select as it is still not fully tested, and may yet yield unexpected results.
• The "HarmonioUs" button to start the game now periodically changes to "Start Chapter" for clarity's sake.
• Clearing your save will not properly reset Social Battery.

October 21, 2022:

• Added small variations in dialogue flow for Chapter 2 (dependent on whether you speak to Chico or Abi before the other).
• Fixed a bug where Chico's dialogue was falling out in Chapter 3 when choosing to hang out with them.
• The option to toggle Cheat Codes on and off has been added to the Scene Select.
  • When Cheat Codes are ON, anything selected in the checkboxes will load--including if you have boxes that are not checked! By default, some of the boxes are UNCHECKED, and so loading the game without changing this will not register that you've spoken to some characters!

For transparency, and a look into things behind the scenes, let me explain what was going on with this elusive bug!

1. The Scene Selection loading buttons were not labelled accurately! Loading with choices would load the choices set in the checkboxes below, while loading without them would mean the game would select a set of pre-determined choices not chosen by the player at all.
2. When loading with choices without making any changes to the checkboxes, that would mean that some variables necessary for the progression of dialogue would not be loaded in at all. In this case, rather than checking if you had spoken to Xander in Chapter 1 and setting it to true or false, there was no associated value and so the check simply did not exist! After Chico mentions that Xander has seemed busy, the game didn't know what to do! 😖
3. Now, the option to toggle on the choices at all has been added. If there are boxes that are unchecked, it will consider those variables to be false rather than simply non-existent.

October 19, 2022:

• Fixed a bug where variables were not loading correctly in Chapter 4 when talking to Xander, and causing a fatal error.
• Removed horizontal scrolling from all scrollboxes to prevent further click-and-dragging jank!

October 16, 2022:

• Fixed a bug where Chico's first set of dialogue options in Chapter 6 weren't parsing due to script errors.
• Fixed a bug where the dialogue would not start when attempting to leave messages for everyone in Chapter 9.
• Added CHEAT CODES 👀 to the Scene Select!
  • When you select a scene from the scene select menu, you can now input the choices you will want to have been made up to the point that you are attempting to load the game! When you Load With Choices, you are loading the game with the choices you select from the menu. When you Load Without Choices, you will be loading the game with a set of pre-determined choices-- in case you just want to skip right into the action.
