Hello, sorry you're experiencing this. I always playtest the online version of the game before I release it and images load normally for me. This error seems to be on itch.io's side unfortunately so there's not much I can do. You can keep trying to refresh or you can download the game and play locally, which loads images and passages much faster, and is what I recommend for most people. You can download your save as a file and or use the main menu's skip links if you don't want to replay from the start.
Thanks for responding. The game is amazingly written so far, other than a few grammar hiccups in the earlier versions. Honestly, the only thing that could make this game better is some more time spent with the family, cause other than two pieces of dialogue, they're pretty much non-existent in the story, might be fixed in new updates, but we'll see.
(playing online on itch) The portrait they mentioned didn't load during the first interaction with Carmilla, then right after that intro, with running into the classmates, the ass shot of Beth and the shot of Madison changing both didn't load (but the flexing pic at the beginning of that page did? which is odd, I was guessing like new images past X point all wouldn't). Held off on going further because of it, but wanted to let you know. Haven't had any images not load in prior versions, for whatever that's worth
