December 12th Bug-Fixing Build

Got a big update for you today! Lots of changes in this build. Everything from bug fixes to quality-of-life improvements to new hair models for the characters – including Senpai himself!

To read a list of everything that was changed in the latest build, scroll down past this beautiful illustration of Ryoba by mmoKa_!

Fixes, Changes, Additions

  • If the player lowered School Atmosphere, every member of the Newspaper Club would become Sleuths, meaning that the Newspaper Club President would never be inside of his clubroom, meaning that the player would never be able to join the Newspaper Club. This oversight has been addressed; the Newsppaer Club President now stays inside of his clubroom when atmosphere is low.
  • Previously, in order to invest study points into a school subject, the player had to tap a button repeatedly. This became very tedious if the player had saved up 50+ study points and wanted to invest them all at once. As of now, the player can simply hold down the left/right button to add/subtract study points, instead of tapping a button repeatedly.
  • Fixed bug that was preventing the game from realizing that Ryoba’s rival had been eliminated if the player obtained enough Affection Points, but went home without actually watching the matchmaking cutscene between the rival and the suitor.
  • If the player used the Emergency Shower located in the Science Clubroom to change out of a bloody uniform, the dropped bloody uniform would appear inside of the Science Lab instead of the Science Clubroom. This bug has been fixed.
  • Fixed bug that caused the Counselor to remember the previous occasions that the player had been sent to her office, even if the player reset the day. (I guess the Counselor was immune to time travel, and could see across timelines!)
  • Students no longer react to petty things (like Yandere-chan crouching) if they are currently hiding in their classrooms, cowering in fear because they saw something that caused them to worry about the possibility of a killer at school.
  • Fixed bug that prevented the game from acknowledging that the player had used up a purchased item and that the item should no longer be available from the “Bring To School” menu until the player bought a new one.
  • Fixed bug that would cause the game to incorrectly save data on what panties the player had recently purchased, allowing the player to buy panties, reset the week, and keep the panties they had purchased.
  • Fixed bug that caused Ayano to use the wrong school uniform during her Befriend/Betray cutscene with Osana, if the player had picked any uniform other than the default one.
  • Fixed bug that would cause a student’s pathfinding to break if they spotted a corpse while running to their classroom because they saw something scary elsewhere in school.
  • Fixed bug that would instantly grant the player access to free rat poison / alcohol / cigarettes / condoms if they had chosen to enter the tutorial instead of skip it.
  • It is no longer possible to strike up a conversation with a student while they are cowering in fear in their classroom, scared because of something they saw in school.
  • Updated Senpai’s default hair model for the first time in 7 years. With this, I believe that the game is no longer using any “Game Asset Studio” hair models anywhere.
  • Fixed bug that would cause the player to have a negative amount of Study Points in class if they used the “Skip straight to a specific week” debug feature.
  • Fixed bug that caused a corpse inside of a garbage bag to “wear” a labcoat, if the dead student had been wearing a labcoat when they were wrapped up.
  • Fixed bug that allowed the player to repeatedly pay money for an item in the convenience store, even if the player had already purchased that item.
  • Fixed bug that prevented the “Fake ID” icon from appearing in stores if the player obtained a Fake ID from the Yakuza instead of from Info-chan.
  • Fixed bug that caused the game to incorrectly track the number of times that the player had been spotted carrying a suspicious weapon.
  • Fixed bug that made Ritsuko’s canon elimination method impossible, but only if the player was trying to trigger it on a Thursday.
  • Fixed bug that prevented Horuda from reacting properly to a locker note about bullying when she was a victim of bullying.
  • Fixed bug that could cause a teacher to get stuck while trying to pathfind to a student’s corpse on top of the gym stage.
  • From now on, being shoved by a student council member while crouching or crawling will cause the player to stand up.
  • Fixed bug that caused a mind-broken slave to act like a normal student if the player aimed a camera at their face.
  • Fixed bug that would cause the radio near the incinerator to sound as though it was playing two songs simultaneously.
  • Fixed the order of two students in the 202X Alphabet Killer Challenge who were not in correct alphabetical order.
  • Fixed bug that caused an option to appear when talking to Riku Sora that would make the game freeze.
  • Fixed bug that caused a black shape to appear in the hair model of the Newspaper Club’s president.
  • Updated the 1980s Mode delinquent boys with higher-quality hair models and textures.
  • Changed the hair model for one of the Light Music Club girls in 1980s Mode.
  • Fixed typo in the Ideas entry for the Electrocution elimination method.
