May 2nd Bug-Fixing Build

Hello! I’ve prepared an update that fixes some annoying bugs that people were running into while trying to enjoy the new rival.

(If you reported a bug and it wasn’t fixed in this build, don’t worry – I’ll get around to it in the next bug-fixing build.)

To read a list of everything that was improved or fixed in the latest build, scroll down past this absolutely adorable illustration of Amai drawn by eeennnnenen!

Improvements

  • The “Week Select” feature is now accessible when starting a 202X Mode save file. This is so that you can quickly jump into Amai’s week without having to play Osana’s week first. (There may be bugs with this feature, since I never actually intended for it to exist outside of 1980s Mode.)
  • The remaining 202X rivals’ portraits have been updated.

Fixes

  • In Amai’s stealth mission, if the player mashed the “A” button to instruct the protagonist to climb, the climbing animation would restart each time the player pressed the “A” button. This bug has been fixed.
  • The security guards in the Amai stealth mission were incapable of spotting Ayano if she was just slightly higher or lower in height than they were. This bug has been fixed.
  • If the player alarmed the rival while she was waiting under the confession tree to confess, the rival would perform a “changing shoes” animation. This bug has been fixed.
  • If the player saved and loaded at any point during Amai’s week, any completed event from earlier in the day would restart and happen again. This bug should be fixed now.
  • If the player gave food to a student, the student would stand still for 7 seconds after they were done talking, which was awkward. This is no longer the case.
  • A debug command was accidentally left in the game; pressing the left ctrl key would skip any currently-ongoing event. This oversight has been corrected.
  • When the player got an achievement for eliminating Amai, the words “Amai Challenge” would appear onscreen. This oversight has been corrected.
  • Due to a bug, four characters in 202X Mode were permanently running everywhere when they weren’t supposed to. This bug has been fixed.
  • When attempting to pause the game during Amai’s stealth mission, the pause screen would not appear. This bug has been fixed.
  • Shoku’s student profile was displaying the incorrect name for the character he has a crush on. This bug has been fixed.
  • When walking up to the door to exit Ayano’s room, the “Exit” text was not appearing. This bug has been fixed.
  • In the “Senpai meets Kizana” cutscene, Senpai was wearing the wrong clothing. This bug has been fixed.
