LMAOOOOOO T_T I'm actually unable to recreate this bug. Do you remember what choices you made, the exact moment when Ren changed his sprite, and what outfit his sprite changed into? Also, just to confirm, you weren't using any Easter Egg names? Sorry for all the questions!!
no worries! I was using the name angel if that counts, besides that I think my choices were: sent back another sticker, hair is the same. something cutesy, it's nice to see you again, politely excuse yourself, and invite him over. then the exact moment he normally shows up after that is when the bug happened. (so like, he didn't change outfits mid conversation or anything he just showed up like that and stayed that way) + it was that outfit with the black top and he had long hair. hope that helps! I did replay the exact save immediately after it happened without doing anything different and it didn't reoccur so it's probably nothing to stress over
I genuinely don't know why this bug is happening??? sjghsdgs ;v; My only guess is that it might be pulling data from another save file?? Because Ren doesn't have any flags or toggles during that scene that would warrant him to change his hair/outfit.
Regardless, I'm glad you were able to fix it — and thanks for bringing this issue to my attention!! I'll be sure to keep my eye on this bug ^^For now though, I'll just pretend that Ren wanted to spend his free time at the hair salon lmao /j
