Hey everyone. So after the bombshell hit with the last update, I received an expected amount of bug notices for many of you. I'd like to get most of those cleared while working on it today and possibly Saturday if I need the time. Development will be significantly slower now with school officially starting for me, but I'll definitely put some focus on the game. I forgot to put some details of added things in the notes of the game so I'll just tell them now. There is the system of different days of the week I added along with certain events that only trigger on certain days. Some characters will be in different locations doing different tasks for example. There will be some side characters that only show up on certain days. Items will have different effects based on the day, stores can have discounts on certain days, etc. There is only 2 examples of this in the game so far, and I don't know how many of you have found them. First, Lora should be away from her house and swimming on Friday and Sunday. And second, Richie should be walking around town on Thursday and Saturday. Nothing significant at the moment.

As you all know, I'm planning on simplifying the familiarity system from it's current stage, but I also have another change I'll be working on along with that. While trying out the newest game back on Aotk, I poked around the files (as I usually do with the new games) to see what other content I could find. While doing that, I noticed the way Lasglipas handled the detection of clothing the player wore was quite different to how I did it. They actually set a line of text as a variable, and could place that in text boxes depending on certain specifications. This method would save a lot of time with handling all of the different types of clothing (mainly underwear) if I switched to it. So I probably will. For you all, this won't be a big change except it will add more time until the next update.

For now, if you find any new bugs or still have some comments on the last update specifically, please leave them on the last post so I can keep it all organized.

Until next time, Bagool
