Ahhh! And it’s in the stadium section! For some reason I thought it was at the start of the game. Most of what you described is actually supposed to happen — except for you going to talk to Matt and getting the same conversations on a loop xDDDD.
Okay, I think I found what was going on and I released a silent update (you can download the game again). I tested it and it’s working properly now, but you’ll need to replay Matt’s part.
That initial stadium section (version 0.5) is what I call the exploration part, meaning there are a lot of variables that change scenes in different ways depending on the choices you make. When you explore and then get sent automatically to Matt, you kind of end up skipping some keys (basically the game doesn’t remember you already went to Matt). That was a coding mistake on my end. It should be fixed now (I just hope I didn’t accidentally break anything else).
And thank you so, so much.
