I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I'm not too sure what you mean by the story progress variables not being local though.
Are you saying that unlocked scenes (such as gallery images that appear for a while before the story continuing) still show up during a replay/load game ?
If so then that's intentional. They are there as a "short break" or scene transition (for example if the location is about to change).
As for the first 2 wonders and 1 pleasure memory I went back and had a look and noticed that there was a typo with the Seraphine pleasure memory.
Thank you so much for pointing that out!
All the wonders seem to be fine but I'll double check again and update the game with the fixes as soon as I can (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ
