Didn't mean plot, I was more referring to the fact that a lot of the current characters are just introduced and then don't actually have any content.
If these are just side characters then that makes more sense, just sounds like something else when you say "added new character". Probably don't need to mention adding in people that don't stick around.

Don't save the data in the characters then, you can store relationship info the same way you currently store stats and gold.
Any particular reason you have things set up that way? I haven't messed with Renpy to much but from what I know usually you just have a flags list/file that stores everything rather than splitting data between multiple things. I've been messing with doing a VN-like game in Godot and thats how I've been handling it there.
Does a decent job curating the images, only a few spots where its a little jarring in the differences.
The minigames are annoying but you can cheat your way around them atleast, the Elsa one though is just silly, have to guesstimate where to stop it and unlike the strength minigame your stat doesn't seem to actually help.
The code side of things is a mess though, tons of bugs that have to be rolled back and the save system basically doesn't work. All progress except stats and gold is lost, all relationship points and unlocked areas just gone.
That being said the bugs should be relatively easy to fix and the save system just needs the things its missing to be added to the save file. I'd say give it 6 months to clean things up and if its still around give it a shot.
