0.5.5 Update

This one was a DOOZY. Lots of things that can and will go wrong... Though I think I've managed to squash all of the bugs, but bear in mind, this is the first overhaul release, so there could very well be quite a few that I missed. Hopefully none that are Gamebreaking.
Story:
Riley, Sasha, and John all have a fair bit of new content. I'd wager between 15 and 30 scenes each, though that will vary on your decisions. There's about 50 new scenes outlined in the overhaul, but quite a few of those rely on the unfinished study widget (that's going to be the subject of a poll) and the Physical Education course is just a placeholder as well (once the poll is done I'll add a character that fits what you guys chose). I've added 5 new characters, and a few more will be added as I go along, with some characters you've met in game returning for "class". Depending on variables of course, and how well the randomizer works out for me. Might need to re-write that from scratch...
Code: I've changed a few back-end things, nothing too fancy, just little tweaks here and there.
Visuals: I've updated the U.I. Significantly. The color palette is now mostly black and white (constant complaints about the pinkness of the buttons and background finally made me just drop it all-together). There is now a reveal in the right sidebar again (works using divs so, it should be instant, no sketchy reloads). I've added a hint system that will receive little bits of information as problems arise and people have trouble finding things out. The grade button is now fully functional, and looks "pretty" at least to me.
Suggestions: I've started work implementing a few suggestions I received from patrons/people on discord. First off, I'm going to start greying out all non-accessible items once unlocked (might be tricky, but probably worth it). Secondly, I'll do my best to make things appear "relevant", meaning I'll work on cutting down how much junk is on the screen at any one time, shorter passages, stuff like that. Sounds, some people want music, some hate it, I think I'll look into that stuff when I have the spare time, and maybe get someone to make me some custom music eventually, along with some less "scratchy" sound effects.

You have to extract the zip file first, then run the game from the html file.
