I think the only one that clashes for me is the running man - it's not the pixellated style, though, it's the surrounding colour. Your UI is all shades of purple and warm greys, and most of the other icons have colours that don't clash (pinks, light blues, pastelly greens) but that one has such a di...

I'm not sure getting all the story content is practical or possible for any one player, considering all the branches. :) This makes me think of the Star Ocean 2 picture that was made up of loads of little squares. You got one square every time you got a new voice clip and you could get different te...

Weird case logic (posting here, but if you'd rather have it somewhere else let me know): In the Delicate Blossom variant where her friend is throwing her a party, why can't we persuade (instead of harass) the girl to not throw the party? That one took me forever to figure out. Since she wasn't expl...

Understood! The first time around I played I was so overwhelmed and the cases kept piling on me, it was a nightmare! So I was wondering if something changed and if it was going to go on that way. Additionally, I got a crash (uploaded) just after inviting Althea to the movies. She doesn't like me, I ...

If you finish all the cases, does the game not provide new ones? I had this happen a couple of times on my current play through - by the 22nd of September it happened twice, then I had a meeting with Talmage and the 23rd I still had no new case. Then it was the week-end. It's just a bit weird that i...

I don't mind pulling back drugs and gambling to a little later in the year (I was already considering blocking those in the first month), but I don't want to get too limiting with early case types. Compared to other people in this thread I have much less experience, so I don't know how useful my fe...

Related to the difficulty of the game: I think that having a training mode available at the beginning is going to help a lot, particularly if you were to suggest somewhere that one might want to try that before going into the game as there's a few things to keep in mind. I don't know how common my e...

One small UI bug: when Mallory's second sprite is in a cutscene that can be skipped (like at the beginning), her hand overlaps with the 'Skip' button. It still works, but it looks a bit untidy and might be confusing to some, since her hand covers it almost completely.

It worked for me as well, thanks!

:D

Glad you like them, I hope the CGs don't disappoint you!

Updating doesn't seem to work for me: I've tried from an alpha version I'd downloaded (because); I've downgraded to the previous beta version and, finally, uninstalled the game and reinstalled it to update from that, but I still got an exception. I've uploaded the tracebacks via the game. 'http_exce...

It might be an idea to see the sprites over the backgrounds as soon as possible (this is my inner tester talking, of course). I don't claim to not have painted some of them until 2 AM, so I wouldn't be surprised if there were some little kinks to work out! Particularly if they have to have a bit of ...

Do you have an ad anywhere? Just to see the requirements and stuff, at the very least I'd like to use them for practice. :D

Too many CGs? :P

Waiting for it! I'd try and apply for the position, but I'm not sure I'm meeting the bar.

Awesome noodles! I'm quite thrilled work has resumed on it. :D

And that is why professional game testers are quite valuable. :P You don't necessarily get OCD people to test your game, make repeat play-throughs, make testing plans, art checks etc. etc. The only "valuable" thing I can think of, for those who might care, is to put people as testers in the final cr...
