Hi guys, here's the new build. Again, there's three cheat codes you can use (just type in on the main screen): sister to have Erika be your sister, cousin to have Hana be your cousin, and bitcoin to... well, to make the world a slightly better place. 

This is the last release we do where the cheats and premium content are available to all pledgers, and starting next month, we will password protect patch files and send out the passwords for those only to those whose payments have gone through. If you want to play the full version with premium content and cheats as soon as the game is released , make sure your pledge level is at least $5 (for premium content) or at least $10 (for premium content + cheats) before your payment is processed (which happens like starting the day after tomorrow so get to it). If you up the pledge in January, you will have to wait until the beginning of February (until your payment has been processed) before you get the goods. 


Changes since last release:

* Various bugs fixed

* Cousin/sister story expanded

* One new CG (that air hockey image)


Again, still bugs galore, so wait for the final release if you'd prefer not to have to deal with that. The hanami loop might still be in there, but you might still be able to reach two new Erika endings - no promises, though! This is entirely hot off the presses, compiled like 15 minutes ago... 


Bug reports welcome, as always! Even if they have been reported before (except the eyes... the few cases where the bug is still left, we're well aware of it).


Thanks again for everybody's support and patience!

Talking to Erika the day after drinking with her results in a freeze after the line " I can't help but smile at her attempt...".

deamonmaster

If you have cousin mode active and order the burger on the first date with Hikari, when the food arrives it says you ordered pasta.

I get a freeze with Erika the day after you eat lunch with her, when you go into her room and speak with her

marblesyrup

After the line "I can't help but smile at her attempt to brush over what she just said." - or elsewhere?

Anonymous

Yeah, I get a freeze any time I speak with Erika in her room, regardless of drinking or not. (which brings me on to another point of how even if you haven't drunk with Erika, the option is still there to ask if she's alright and then the convsersation continues as if you had been drinking the previous night)

marblesyrup

I've re-uploaded a newly compiled version, Tsubaki-kun couldn't recreate the bug now so he says it should be fine. Last upload for the night..! The conversation choices will be fixed for the next release, thanks for the report!

Got a new bug for you. After offering the cider to Erika at the hanami, Hana comes to talk to the MC and Erika. After Hana teases Erika about the MC supposedly calling her cute, I get stuck in a loop that repeats the dialogue and stops progression of the story. Also having trouble with just talking to Hana after trying to move the conversation forward with Erika. Among other bugs that I could probably recreate. Even one with the missing eye textures. And this is going to seem like a stupid question, but where does one enter the cheats?

Edward Culham

by the way on Friday when talking with Erika after spending Thursday night with Hana it mentions the drinking that happens if you spend it with Erika. That just makes no sense at all. thought you should know

Erika's butt is missing when you undress her after drinking. By missing I mean part of it is cut off.

Song Nai

Not sure if anyone has said this yet but during the Saturday event with the flowers when I trigger the option for Erika to drink and then Hana comes over, the conversation cuts out and the game freezes when Hana scolds me for making Erika drink a bit more than she can.

Anonymous

At the point where you can ask Erika to the Hanami it freezes prior to being able to ask her

Anonymous

Seems like fun, but i can't seem to get a continuation at the hanami. Every time Hana comes over it loops the dialogue

Anonymous

the 2nd time where Erika's eyes dissapear seems to be gone, the 1st one still exists, and yeah i got stuck again

sparrosmurf

I don't know if it's a bug or if it isn't finished yet but just in case: After you have sex with Erika, you go to the beach with her and Hana who says something like "I love the beach !" then the game freezes on a white background with the two girls.

Randall Flagg

Get stuck in this loop at the cherry blossom gathering, where Hana comes and sits nest to Erika and I, and after Hana says something about Erika being cute, then goes back to Hana walking over to us. This actually seems to happen whenever I bring Erika to the gathering.

Just about everything concerning erika after the drinking incident comes up in a loop or a pause. Thought I finally made a breakthrough after skipping the hanami and hiking for erika, but that ends up in a pause at the beach as well. Concerning Hani, if I dont immediately talk to her at the hanami, when she comes to find me, she starts a loop. It also loops with hani if I dont bring erika at the hiking trip and treat her like trash. Also, is it even possible to avoid the alone 4ever route with hani? (that last part was more for me than for bugs, but it might be related to a bug? lol)

Anonymous

Hey I only just pleged so I might be giving redundant feedback :P. But I think most Hana endings are unreachable and when you go hiking with both Hana and Erika you get the Hana quiz in the shrine and no matter what you do afterwards you get Kenji in a maid costume? I don't know if that's intended or a bug. Also whenever you take Erika to the hanabi whenever you start with sitting with her the game loops. Starting with hana goes fine.

Anonymous

Also in the erica ending with skipping the hike the game freezes when you go to the beach. It also freezes when hana finds out erika is drunk at the hanabi. I could send you fraps recordings of those games if it helps with bugfixing btw? Anyway keep up the good work ^^. Enjoyed crusoe immensely and your games are a lot more fun then sakura spirit for example :P less needless fluff.Happy newyear!

Happy new years everyone, and i still want to marry Erika

I keep getting stuck with erika the second time i go into her room, it seems to freeze up only when i dont accept to go to the cherry blossom thing

Script bugs: During Hana's introduction the line "I...I guess..." is unnamed (thoughts), but considering what Hana says next it should be labeled as Nishi talking. At the two instances in the game song lyrics are displayed they're highlighted by "?" signs. Not sure if this is by design. During the dinner with Hana there's no option to say Nishi thinks nothing of the class if the cousin cheat is activated. And later Hana's sprite disappears at "Maybe even someone for you..." and reappears at "Dear cousin is a...". If Nishi and Hana go into town together and Nishi ditches his last class (taking the route on which Erika and Hana can meet first), after Nishi breaks up the fight and Hana's sprite reappears inside the arcade, it's still being moved to the left side of the screen. Stop pulling the poor girl, Nishi ; -) In the scene that appears if the sister cheat is activated and the player chooses the goodnight kiss and then the "dark" path, Erika's lower body seems to be cleanly cut off, you see only the upper half. There's a freeze on day five if the player chooses to study with Erika, after the line "Maybe...maybe I should bring along Erika?" At the beginning of the hiking trip, the text says Nishi is surprised to see Hana there if he invited her, and simply lumps her together with the masses if he didn't. Label contents swapped, perhaps...? During lunch afterwards, if the player DIDN'T tell Kenji Hana was Nishi's girlfriend, Hana's sprite jumps to the left side of the screen upon Kenji's inquiry about the length of their relationship, at the line "Oh, no. Well, I guess...". And after reaching the temple only Kenji's sprite fades at "The Nishiganji temple is..." while Hana's stays put right until the new one appears when she rejoins Nishi ("Hey, look what I got!"). The "Oh" Nishi utters at the end of the talisman dialogue with Hana is unnamed. During day seven, regardless of the players' choice Nishi will end up in the maid cafe (if Hana and Nishi got along well enough during the game, of course). The choice to let her go to work alone first leads to a short goodbye, then to another choice the options of which lead me to guess it's intended for the case the player didn't uncover the exact nature of Erika's part-time job yet, then to the maid cafe. The two labels where Nishi inquires Erika about the supposed provision for bringing a new customer close to the end of the day are unnamed...and also, I feel Erika should have an amused sprite in the following "Pffft...". Sex scene with Erika has the same CG, regardless wether the player choose to remove her top or not. Typos/story contradictions: There's a point missing after "dodgy house", on the first night of the game in the line right after the "burglar sound" (That's...that's definitely...). In the cousin cheat introduction, if the player chooses "Tell her she's grown", Hikari mentions it has been five years since Nishi and her last saw each other ("I know right? It must've been..."), but later after the dinner on the way home Nishi recalls she really changed from a year ago, indicating they saw each other. Also, if it's going to be five years in the end it'd be nice to know if there was a specific reason for that (highschool or something). There are two story contradictions in the sister cheat game version that come about as a consequence of the changes. First, while Nishi thinks about how he got money for a laptop prior to him coming to Tokyo, he mentions he got it from his parents - while at least in this version, they're clearly divorced. This might also be a problem in the cousin cheat, seeing as he specifically states at the beginning that his aunt "stayed married", unlike his mother - indicating they got divorced there as well. Second, while the colour of Eiko's maid outfit was changed to blue, the text still describes it as being pink right before their meeting in town. A correction to my earlier feedback: The Erika spirit fade during the dream occurs in both the cousin and the sister cheat version. I really like what you're making of this game! The plot/text is becoming more fun to read with each version. I really liked the little surprise in the sister version of Erika's introduction (thought that was a graphic bug first, actually) and the new ending you can (somewhat) reach now - though I feel a little bad for Kenji... Also...Erika's laughing face is just too god damn adorable... I don't really have any suggestions this time...except that maybe you could change the option to tell Erika that "you got tired of sitting alone everyday" on day 5 during lunch (if the player chooses to go sit with Erika) to something along the lines of "sure has been a while since we last ate together" in the sister cheat version, and build in a recall of the few real brother/sister moments they had in the past there. A happy new year for you, and I hope you can complete the final version of the game with moderate easiness! P.S.: Recently, I got an e-mail-message that you responded to my last comment (the one to the post before)...but I can't find that reply anywhere in my E-mail-account or the activity feed. Was that an error in the alert system?

As you know I just recently became a pledger and I have recently played the online version and then played the downloaded version and I must say that I love the story so far. However I was actually more satisfied with the online version more than that downloaded version. I feel like the story was a lot smoother and not as rushed. I like the in depth story line as well I felt the graphics were a lot smoother, for example, I like the online version of Erika compared to the downloaded version because I one felt like she looked better and the artist did a very good job of making the picture and clearer. The downloaded one just seems well maybe I just dont like changed :P. I just feel like the graphics were better in the online version. Just out of curiosity why the change in graphics?

Sir Pants

Been loving the series so far, please keep up the amazing job!

marblesyrup

The change in graphics..? The online version is heavily compressed, i.e. all the art has much more jpg artefacts. That's the only difference.

Darkmagic

I wanted to just let you know, if you didn't already, when I'm at the viewing festival thing, and i invited erika. If i choose the premium option and hana comes over and criticizes me about forcing her to drink too much, the texts and game stops. Hana says, "Nishi I'm disappointed in you.", and then the text stops and the games freezes. edit: I should probably mention i had all three cheat codes active.

Zac Woodroff

After knocking on Erika's door and asking if she's all right and then asking her to explain what she means, it freezes on the line "we go back to studying, for a while, when I remember about the hanami tomorrow. Maybe... maybe I could bring Erika along?"

Anonymous

is there by chance a walkthrough? in the 2 questions i get asked at the end i only get 1 ending..

Anonymous

there are still tons of bugs, so gotta wait until the final release, not sure when tho

MH

SO HOW MUCH LONGER TILL THE BUGS ARE FIXED ALL THE DELAYS ARE KINDA CRAZY

marblesyrup

ARE THEY, REALLY?!? It's the New Year's weekend... which comes after X-mas. You know, the one time of the year pretty much everyone takes time off? Calm down. The size of this game is now larger than many Steam VN's, made on much laxer schedules. That wasn't really the intention with this title, but the reason behind the delays is the game growing larger, not us not working on it.

Anonymous

the full game isn't done yet, still need some time before it's done and all. Once it's done we'll get some notification saying so. But until then you'll have to wait.

I'm counting the days until i can finally overcome that evil scumbag that is Kenji.

death scene, death scene, death scene. Like this comment enough so we can have one cuz he was talking to Erika

Anonymous

How do pledgers get access to cheats and stuff? do we wait until we get an email or PM?

marblesyrup

Thanks, Arcana! You're a treasure. I think I replied to your last comment that we would update the public script soon, but I might have deleted the comment accidentally or something.

Gurn

As one of the poor souls who pledged after the 1st, I'm content to wait to conquer Hana a second time. Damn that Kenji. Because... that other Hana sex scene is just not accessible yet, is it? :) I know, I know-- no spoilers. :) Oh, and Marble Syrup, your character designs and style are out of this world.

marblesyrup

Hi Gurn, don't worry, you'll still get the game on time, it's just the cheats and premium content that will be locked off until your pledge has gone through.

Theres some major art glitches when youre doing the drunk Erika (I should say Eiko in this case). Your hand looks like a blob that just melted on to her. I have a screenshot, just dont know where to send it.

marblesyrup

That sounds awesome. If you could e-mail the screenshot to marblesyrup@gmail.com , we'd appreciate it!
