Damn, I just noticed that there are changes in your web version that were not in the standard edition of the novel.

(which is logical, because the web version was released later than the stationary one)

For example:

- The OpenDyslexic font has a closer spacing between letters.

This font brought me a lot of headaches, since the version of the font for the PC release did not have Cyrillic letters, which is why I had to search for the font author's GitHub and download the latest beta version for 2019 which has the Cyrillic alphabet, but it has the letter spacing much larger than yours, and as a result it was still a task to set up the same display of the game on all devices (PCs, Tablets, Phones). So, now I'm thinking that I'm stupid and I need to transfer Cyrillic alphabet from new to the old one font revision

— sorry for my long texts, but I can't explain all in a few words 😭

- In the main menu of the game, a heart shape assembled from fragments of a stained glass lamp has a glow effect, as in the GIF animation on the game card from your profile

- Letter-by-letter text animation (I noticed it and was able to turn it on).

I'm sorry to bother you, but could you share your web version so that I can transfer these changes to my fan update? I would not bother you if it were possible to pull out the necessary resources on my own, but this is not considered possible.

Even if you have already lost the original project, you can download the existing build of the web version from itch.io on the "Edit game" tab, then "Downloads" then press "More" and then you can download your web version.

I will be very grateful if you succeed. You can send the file in any way convenient for you, or by e-mail to me :

Hi, and thanks for checking in!

The page is looking good, but I think I somewhat misunderstood what you were planning for. I understood that you would be releasing the build in Russian and Ukrainian, but the page is in English.

I'm very happy to see people translating the game, as that is something I cannot do myself, and it makes the game accessible to people who might not be able to read the English version. However, I would like to retain full creative control over the English version of the game, bugs and all, and I would also prefer if the English readership wasn't split between multiple accounts.

As such, I'd like to ask you to update the page to cater to Russian and Ukrainian speakers (i.e. primarily using those languages both on the page and in the screenshots). You're welcome to add an English disclaimer directing English speakers to this page, if you like.

Sorry for not being clear on this earlier.

Oh, and I decided to add a PC/mac build of the web release on this page, as it contains typo fixes and some quality of life updates. I hope the data contained there answers all your questions regarding formatting and such in the web build.
