EDIT 11/24: The files have been updated with a few bug fixes.

Hi guys, here's the new beta (for $5+ pledgers). I kind of overstated/overpromised a little concerning how far along it is, but I prefer showing what we have to extending the deadline. You'll not be able to reach all CG's and endings, but hey, at least it's a little something to keep you preoccupied until the final release on December 12.


Also... if you don't mind having the story spoiled - we're PMing a link to the full script on Google Docs to all cleared $10 backers. You can just have a look but also suggest changes, fix typos, fix obvious bugs if you come across one, leave a comment where exactly the game crashed for you, and even add new lines and stuff (!) if you dare! The whole thing is formatted in our proprietary VN script and it will probably be rather confusing, at least if you're not familiar with scripting/programming languages.


We've added back some of the music from the original Housemate game, but we're considering maybe replacing one or two of them, or at least adding more variety to the soundtrack. If anybody has any suggestions for fitting music that's either public domain, royalty free or CC-BY, PM us or leave a comment! You'll end up in the credits as "Sound Adviser" or something if you give us something we can use.


Thanks for your support thus far!

Best,

BigB

SPOILER(not much tough): does the game stop after you ask Erika to the hanami and hiking?

every time i go with hana into town, and get to the point where they are supposed to go drinking, kenji's dialogue starts up.

There's some moments where Erika's eyes are completely missing. When you knock on her door after getting home on Friday, and if you go into town with Hana before then. (Also, "town" seems to be missing.) Also also, Hana at Denny's is all the way on the left side of the screen.

Hi, sorry about that. If you tell us exactly where it froze, we can fix it and upload a new version.

Yuri ending 2 was the only ending i was able to get. The game freezes shortly after Kenji's dialogue (Saturday morning if you accept, immediately after if you refuse) in EVERY route/combination except if you are really nice to Hana. Also Erika shows up for both the hanami and the hiking despite not being invited so the yuri ending is always triggered. I also encountered the bugs mentioned the comments such as Erika's disappearing eyes, Kenji's sudden dialogue during supposed drinking with Hana and Hana's dialogue and choice appearing twice during the hanami.

Also a few blackscreens here and there. But you are pretty correct. So the only thing difference between this Beta and the Alpha? Is that you can complete the single ending.

For me, Kenji pops up immediately after I'm supposed to go drinking with Hana. In addition, when I disagree with him the game freezes, which it also does on the flower viewing when I move to sit with Hana.

Im not sure if this could be called beta 2. for me it is simply just beta 1. i havent gotten to any point thats new yet. still freezes at the hanami event. every single time.

Most of the new stuff is really behind the freezes >< We're uploading a new version with a couple of bug fixes. Please note that the freezes aren't crashes as such, so it's not like you can get around them by trying it again - they are because of script errors meaning the game isn't being instructed to continue anywhere. Do you know specifically when the game freezes at the hanami? Do you remember the last line?

Orange Juice

There are still a metric ton of freezes in the new version, across multiple routes...

marblesyrup

We fixed the ones that had been reported - feel free to be more specific (if the intention was to be helpful rather than just voicing a complaint)

During the whole conversion where I'm invited to go camping, I'm freezing no matter what... I went the Erika route (didn't go out with hanna or do anything with her). I tried pretty much every dialog option.

the background is still the same when you get home from your walk with Nishi

Eric

btw, I see it wasn't mentioned much, but I really like the commentary ya'll put in the game, I think it's unique and interesting and I wouldn't be against having it in future games, if it's easyish to implement. Do you guys use a speech-to-text software to just transcribe an actually conversation during the game or? Thanks for the work so far ya'll.

I Freeze during the scene where you Masturbate do Maid Erika. Through the day dream after you cum.
