You're welcome ! I did not know the old game so I never played it until well... the download and when my curiosity just couldn't stop playing the episodes ah, ah, ah ! Come on who sees a door open and don't go see the room ? I definitely shouldn't be in an horror movie.

But sure if you're interested I can tell you what I noticed or thought about the episodes retyped and the older. There was actually a cut between the first 2 and the others. It's not the same rythm. The cliffhanger was good, at least that was my feeling. Overall after reading all the episodes I thought the MC fell really fast. I had suspicions on him and he actually succeeded in making me lower my guard but then cold shower after all he is in the mobs. Welcome to reality sweetie ! The reactions of MC was a little long but well everyons reacts differently and I think maybe his golden retriever style made the cold shower even more shocking for some people so there is an explanation. But let's hope the reactions won't be the same in every route, 'specially for the one clearly being mob from the begining.

I definitely wanna see Donovan (and I have big suspicions Neil is a big mess too ! Imagine the reactions of players if Gerald is the one less messy !!). Great to know he is the one leading the poll. It could me nice to have a post about who is leading the poll and future polls to make readers more invested ! Maybe a post just for "older players" even though we don't know when they'll post. Or you could ask in a new poll the percentage of new and old players (if you have 100% new players it would be hard to find someone to discuss the before/after).

For the expression "in a lather" I searched and got nothing at the time, and after translating lather it was weird, then I tried today just by adding expression in my search and tada ! With a meaning having much more sens than the one I gote the first time translating just the word ah, ah !

I'll try again with the next mac version and tell you if the misaligned faces still happen (it would be great for an horror game actually). It could already be fixed, just like it could be only on one version of the OS. The joy of computers.

Anyway I'm really curious to know more about Donovan, it sounds like his story will be really fun ! We'll see in the next upload ~.

There was a version of this game that was released as a standalone before being mildly re-written for the main Lovestruck app, so there were some changes to the routes to fit the lighter tone of their other stories. I've been trying to find some recordings of the original stories to see if I can fit them together a bit better, but I've only been able to find the first two episodes of Vince's route. It results in the occasional weird disconnect between some scenes, like they put a bandaid on some of the darker stuff to make it more suitable for a general audience.

I was intending on keeping the one poll going consistently, but I think it would be a good idea to 'reset' the results every so often in case people change their minds and the interest shifts! I'd also like to add an option to note new/old players, I think that would be interesting to see if there's a correlation to the characters picked as well.

The sayings and expressions in this game get me turned around sometimes, but they're pretty fun to play with when you figure them out. It's had me watching a lot of old movies to get in the mood, and it's been fun diving into the setting ^^
