V .075, appoligies and moving forward


So, we're here at version .075 at last.

To start things off, I am so sorry it took this long to get to this point, I've been pretty busy with my IRL job among other issues and haven't had time to buckle down and patch. So this update is a two for one, adding the rest of Eri's death scenes and a major patch fixing the tangled mess that was Chyoi's segment.

Second I've started live streaming my dev work when i have time, you can watch me create the scripts, create the scenes with the character models (cant do actual character creation as it's against TOS). This will be most Monday's and Sundays from about 4-6pm on twitch. There are still a few errors in Eri's segment and changes i want to make though it's functional enough to get through to Sora as of right now. You can watch at the following link; https://www.twitch.tv/flybynightstudios and i intend to use it as a level of transparency so you can see what i'm working on and it's not just these vague blogposts that serve as your only form of update on progress

Finally the plan moving forward, i've not updated the roadmap to reflect this as it's still tangentially in the air, but the plan thus far is to finish polishing Eri this Sunday/Monday and release v.079 and begin work on Sora in that time. I plan to make sora different than the others, giving a much more limited time frame to complete her content (only one or two days) but she'll also be the simplest due to the fact you'll be locked in to your murder/blackmail/pacifist routes by then. This should allow V.85 and V.8 to be released as one big happy v.85.

Hinata being added is starting to become up in the air, the more i work on this the more I'm unsure if I could make Chyoi work with a female love interest due to how her story already plays out... I'll consider it part of the project timeline until Sora is done, at which point i'll either axe her half or begin work on it

Thank-you for your continued patience as i work on getting this out

patchnotes

  • added new scenes for Eri's morning confront contingent on certain variables 
  • changed multiple options across Chyoi's timeline to make better sense
  • fixed numerous errors and failed flags that would occur during Chyoi's days if variables were not obtained in a certain order
    • a small sample of these include;
      • going to the pool too early in the loop not flagging information 2 from Tsuku so you couldn't blackmail Chyoi
      • multiple crashes due to errors on the pure pacifist routes (improper operations) 
      • multiple missing CG's that were lost during my last motherboard/harddrive failure
      • multiple improperly zoomed CG's due to missing variables
      • a weird error my beta tester H found where if you finished Chyoi with all pacifist variables it'd skip to evening of Eri's first day, we're not sure what caused it but an extra time reset variable fixed it.
  • moved Eri and Chyoi to their own separate script days improving performance and CPU load, as well as general load times
  • multiple spelling errors quashed
  • fixed an odd bug where saving at midnight would cause CTD
  • fixed an odd bug where loading at midnight would CTD
  • fixed Hina's dialogue on multiple routes from Kaede to Eri where you could keep asking her for stuff she already told you
  • Sora's prologue is now available though not much has been added due to a pesky little error i'm still figuring out how to fix
