0.5.28 Preview Remake Release [Can't Wait Tier Release]

Hey everyone,

NOTE: This one might be a bit divisive! While it dives deep into backstory and character development, it doesn't have that big "wow" scene that longer development cycles allow for (but don't worry - that classic scene is coming in the next update! 😉)

What's New:

Nearly 10,000 new words of content (majority being new content/dialogue!)

Dozens of new CGs

Upgraded to newer Renpy version

20-30% vram optimization improvement (diminishing returns)

Other Notes

While there's quite a lot of new content, story progression might feel slower as this update focuses heavily on Ari's initial arc. This release really shows how much work goes into even "smaller" updates!

There's unfortunately a chance that some of the saves will be broken due to the new way images are loaded. I'm really sorry and I will prioritize the skip-to-a-day mode to make the transition easier.

Please let me know if you encounter any other issues with the Renpy upgrade

Some newer scenes might need additional optimization. At some point I'm planning to add a toggle for parallax effects to help lower-end machines (bear with me)

Feedback welcome, and thanks for your continued support!

Cheers,

Tori
