0.2.5 REWORK AGAIN?! :D

Yeah, yeah rework again 0.2.5

Good day, ladies and gentlemen! Long time no see, right?

I’m back with some great news. At this point, I guess it's becoming a tradition to rework the prologue after every release. And yes, I’ve done it again — once more! But I don’t see your happy faces... Oh, you're asking why?

Well, it's simple: I messed up! Let’s just say I gathered all the feedback from everywhere and everyone — and realized I’ve been doing some things wrong. Turns out, many of you wanted more clarity — what’s going on, why, and how. And instead of giving you answers, I just threw even more questions at you. Genius, right?

In version 0.2.5, I fixed all of that (well, starting after 0.2 — I didn’t touch the earlier parts). As for the rewritten text—what was new up to 0.2—I decided to combine the best moments from both the old and the new versions, and polish them with fresh writing on top. I hope this time things come full circle, and I’ll be hearing fewer “What a disappointment” comments... but hey, I’m not holding my breath. XD

Now for the actual changes: I SHOWED character motivations — at least for a few. I made their main goals clearer. I also restructured the narrative, added a bunch of scenes here and there.

As a result, over the past 3 weeks, I rewrote around 25k words. I improved the quality of the renders in the prologue, making it feel more... coherent. (At least, in my opinion, right now.) But because of these changes, I had to remove the scene with Anya (sorry, please don’t hit me—I’ll bring her back in a future update!)

Now, for some dry stats:

• 25,000 – rewritten words
• 1,600 – new renders
• 9 – new scenes added between existing ones
• 30 – new sound effects

Other updates:

• The Codex remains untouched for now. It will be reworked in the next update — version 0.3. I didn’t feel it was good enough yet, so it’ll be redesigned.
• I’ve received requests for two functions: Story Mode (where all choices are disabled), and NSFW Toggle (disables all erotic scenes). I haven’t added them yet, simply because I physically didn’t have time. So for now, we’ll have to make do. Sorry about that.
• In the Settings menu, I’ve added small tweaks like displaying percentage progress, and an option to adjust text speed. You can disable it if you like.
• As for the Gallery, I plan to rework it too. I’ll probably select 6–8 main love interests, and maybe even hold a vote about it later.

That should be all for now — or wait, aren’t you wondering how it’s even possible to do all this in just 3 weeks? I have no idea myself. My body has told me to stop multiple times already.

So I’ll be taking a short break over the next couple of days, and after that, I’ll be back to working on version 0.3. (Small spoiler: since I removed the scene with Anya, I’ve decided to make up for it by adding three scenes in the next update.)

Bugs are fixed, and everything should be working properly. Hopefully, you won’t run into any major issues.

And the Chinese translation... will come later. Sorry, my Chinese friends!

Okay, that’s all for now.
