Progress Update [13 September 2024]
🕑 Added 2024-09-13 07:00:08 +0000 UTC
Hello! First of all, a personal note from me.
I want to thank you for your support and sincerely apologize for any errors you most likely encountered while reading the update.
Most of these have already been fixed, but I'm sorry if they affected your reading experience. Despite that, I still hope you enjoyed the update.
Even though not everything went smoothly, I'm very happy to have released Chapter 3 Pt. 1 and am grateful for all your help, support, and the time you've spent on my story.
I will continue to work hard and hope you'll look forward to the next update!
A Quick Overview of the Week's Activities.
Implemented a new feature: the MC's smoking habit [Next Update].
Fixed numerous grammatical errors, coding bugs, and narrative inconsistencies.
Began the translation of L's Side Story.
[For more details on each, please see the sections below.]
A New Feature: the MC's Smoking Habit.
[Important note: This feature is not included in the current update to avoid breaking save files.]
Over the past week, I implemented the option to choose whether the MC smokes.
The introduction of this option begins in Chapter 1:
Choice 1: The MC smokes. This choice will be reflected frequently in the narrative [see the screenshots below for examples].
Choice 2: The MC has quit smoking but feels tempted to start again.
Choice 3: The MC is considering starting to smoke.
Choices 2 and 3 will be reflected in moments of stress or when around others who are smoking [options to resume / begin smoking will be provided later in the story].
Choices 4-6: These choices affect the stats for compassion and leniency.
If you choose to have your MC smoke, it will be reflected in the narrative quite often. Examples:
Grammatical & Coding Errors.
Major bugs:
Chapter 2: In the scenes with R (interview with the janitor) and K (K's office), variables were used incorrectly, preventing you from proceeding further or resulting in empty passages. This has been fixed.
Chapter 3 [RO's Morning Scenes]: Removed repetitive wording, improved narrative consistency regarding the MC's actions, and fixed incorrectly triggered coding statements.
Chapter 3 [Day Scene]: The narrative did not accurately reflect the "Established Rivalries" dynamic. This has been fixed.
Conclusion: Although it's quite embarrassing to admit, it became clear to me that no matter how hard I try, my efforts aren't enough to maintain the right level of grammatical accuracy.That's why, most likely starting with the next update [or Chapter 4], I'll try to conduct beta tests. I hope this will help me identify and fix bugs and errors before the update is released to you.
L's Site Story.
The translation of L's side story has begun! There are a few unwritten sections in the draft that I'll need to fill in, but I believe I'll be able to share the first sneak peeks by the end of the month as planned.
I have many more plans, but since I've already covered a lot in this update, I'll save the details for the next progress report.
And lastly, R's NSFW Alphabet will be released tomorrow 😏
Thanks for your support and whoever read to the end! ♥

Thank you for taking the time to send me your kind words and well wishes! I'm really happy that you enjoyed the story, and knowing it can evoke an emotional response is very rewarding for me. I do read the messages, but it can sometimes be hard to keep up with everything, especially on Tumblr, so I apologize if you sent a message there and didn't receive a reply. I'll do my best to reply to some of them over the weekend. Wishing you a wonderful week, too! ♥

I don't know if you read these messages, dear author, but it's okay. I hope you are resting and drinking lots of water, because you need it after all your effort. I just wanted to thank you for this story and the characters, I can't get them out of my head. I really enjoyed reading how the story evolves every time you update and the different paths depending on the decision you make. You don't know how surprised I was to read the way MC handles something as stressful as going back to the orphanage and then punching the mirror until the hand of MC bleeds. I didn't expect that. Anyway, I don't want to babble, hope you have a good week! 😌
