Ahh, man, that sucks so much x3 Thank you for pointing it out though! And thank you as well for checking out the project <3

I’ll make a note of it so I can fix it the next time I update the game (probably for the next volume I guess!)

I know why that’s happened, haha. Basically, when I updated the project files to the latest version of Naninovel so I could work on volume 02, so much had changed that it broke every single voice line in volume 01 xD

My choice was to either change the code and put the sprite expression changes in different places within the lines of dialogue OR chop up all of the voice lines into little segments so that they played correctly again in time with the expression changes.

I chose to cut up the voice audio cos it seemed like the faster option + allowed for more control of where to change the sprite’s expressions, and I thought I had managed to successfully catch everything and get it working perfectly again, but I guess not T_T haha.

At least you only found 1 wrong line though I guess! I swear it’s just impossible to catch everything testing by myself >.<

But yeah, I really appreciate you letting me know cos I can’t fix stuff if I don’t know it’s broken :D

Anyways, so glad you’ve had fun with the game :3 If I had the time, I would love to make fandub VNs of soooo many Japanese drama CD series xD Heck, I’d even take requests as long as suggestions were of content I would personally also be interested in and available for me to purchase somehow!

But if I did that, I’d never have time for any of my original projects >.< There’s never enough time in the world to do all the things, haha.

Plus I’m reliant on my friend or other fans to translate because I only know extremely basic Japanese myself! I definitely couldn’t make an accurate translation on my own. I only need a rough translation to go off of in order to make an English localisation though :3

Thanks for playing and taking the time to flag this up!

Sorry for replying late! I wanted to finish the game with both male and female LIs just in case I found something else, and I’m glad to say I didn’t find any more misplaced lines! (At least while using she/her pronouns for the MC.) It’s amazing how well done this game is, everything is so well put together, the voice acting was amazing and was pretty helpful for me to learn a bit more of English this way, and the art style was so pretty! Especially in Volume 2. Volume 2 was my favorite for sure! Takaaki/Tomomi have my heart!

I did notice and appreciate when the characters changed expression at the end of sentences and in the middle of some, and it gives you a lot more of credit if you really had to fix and redo adding all those lines in Volume 1. I also think that between both options, deciding to re-add the voice lines was the smartest move, even if it was also pretty tedious and disheartening to do this over again.

Oh! So I was right when thinking the change in the UI was on purpose! I think it’s a really nice touch myself! I wasn’t sure if it was intentional because instead of a gray variation of the pink icons, the buttons changed completely to buttons with text, similar to the preexisting ones in game engines, if I’m correct. That’s why I wanted to comment it to you just in case. But I liked a lot how the MC was represented differently in the talk box.

I’m looking forward to seeing more project of yours! I played several of your other games a couple of years ago, when you added Volume 1 to the yandere game jam and then I decided to check your other original games, but I couldn’t play too much again anymore until recently. I saw you posted the game again with Volume 2 to the recent yandere game jam and decided to play again since the beginning.

You don’t need to apologise x3 I am pretty much always slow to respond to things these days >.< haha. No matter how hard I try to keep on top of messages, whether it’s comments here or conversations with friends, I fail miserable :( haha.

I’m glad there weren’t any other messed up lines though at least! That’s a relief to hear :3

*High five* or team Takaaki/Tomomi :D

Yeah, they’re not very well matched those text boxes x3 I should have just made a recolour of the pink ones or something, but for some reason, I used one for the inner thoughts of MC that was from a different set >.< haha. It’s still a custom one, but it’s not a very attractive custom one xD Still, anything is better than the default Naninovel UI! I don’t know much about other engines cos I’ve only used Tyranobuilder & Naninovel (Tyrano had some nice themes at least for UI), but Nani’s is horrifically basic/plain, haha.

Anyways, I really appreciate you checking out some of my stuff :3 Thanks so much for that & your kind words ^-^ Hope May is going great for you!
