Hey, everyone, I know it's been a while, but I did manage to get a release out in September! Unfortunately, there is no new story content in this update. However this update does contain backend changes and quality of life features to help the future of the game. This is an early access update, so expect bugs or crashes, and please report them in the appropriate Discord channels. This update will break your save files, but the primary quality of life feature of this update is there to help alleviate this.

Please report any crashes or bugs in the game's Discord : https://discord.gg/JCYmk2jVSB

Changelog: 

The Skip Function : You can now skip ahead to any day in the story. You will be presented with a number of questions during the skip process, and will be dropped into the story at the beginning of the day you skip to. How far you can skip and what choices you make are determined by your normal playthrough progress, which is now tracked persistently between sessions.

Persistent Progress Tracking : Your progress through the game is now tracked persistently between sessions. This allows the skip function to work, and prevents you from skipping ahead to content you have not seen yet. This change is not retroactive. You will still need to play through the game for your progress to begin being tracked, but progress made in this version should carry over to future updates.

Additional Flags and Scene Requirements : There are a number of small changes to flags and variables to help make your choices throughout a playthrough matter a little more. Certain scenes require additional flags to be set to be accessed.

Improved Relationship Change Notifications : Changes to your relationships with the girls now has notifications letting you know if they 'liked' or 'disliked' something, rather than a simple '+1/-1'.

Detailed Changes to Flags/Scenes:

You can now choose to ignore Sophia in the library the first time you see her (if you're a meanie).

Playing along with Jessica sneaking up on you allows you to do the same to her; otherwise you do not have the option.

Mia now remembers if you tell her she looks good with muscles at size 1.

Cheering up Sophia during Mia's first measuring scene is required for future viewing of Sophia's "killer curves".

Elena now remembers if you've tried to lie to her multiple times.

Mia now remembers if you were hands on while measuring her at size 2.
