Is there any way to force it to stay in windowed mode? Alt+Enter enters windowed mode but if I change any settings, it goes back to fullscreen mode. Which is unviable on my multimonitor setup since my primary monitor is 4k and the game's resolution options seem to stop at 1440p. The end result is it shifts things around when it enters fullscreen which is kind of crap.

Edit: Immediately after submitting this, I found the "Automatic screen res" option, which seems to do what I wanted. But its name doesn't at all make it clear what it actually does.

I could be misreading things but it sounds like they're planning on recreating it from the ground up with a more modern setup that can double as a skillset for a career as well.

You really need to find a better way to handle the save warning. No matter what settings I use in my browser (Vivaldi), I cannot load the game. It seems to do so in its own tab except the warning still pops up over everything else and I can't do anything other than... Clicking the window to open the game in yet another tab where the same thing happens. You should provide a bypass for that and a save to file/load from file option instead.

If that's the case though, then why did it suddenly start happening? I'd played the game for a good two or three months before the issue cropped up and hadn't changed anything on my end regarding privacy settings.

Why does my save get cleared literally every single time I load the game? It just randomly started happening at some point so I stopped bothering to play. Recently picked the game back up hoping that the issue was fixed but to no avail. Even setting up cloud saves doesn't fix it. I have to log in manually every single time.

Looks like I had cookies from hwcdn.net blocked. That's rather strange since I don't recall having any similar issues in the past on games hosted on Itch. Good to know that hwcdn is used for hosting though.

I seem to lose my progress constantly. Two days in a row now, I've shut down my computer and when I booted it back up the next day, I was back at square one.

I use a multimonitor setup so unfortunately changing resolution isn't really an option since it'll mess up the layouts of my other monitors.

As for what monitor I'm using, it's this one which seems to be fairly affordable for decent quality: https://www.amazon.com/Sceptre-Monitor-DisplayPort-Speakers-U275W-UPT/dp/B098HQ8...

Also I don't know whether this will help you figure anything out but I think that the lag might be caused by using up an entire cpu core, though I'm not certain whether this was the cause due to some strangeness and me not being very familiar with Python. When I run the game at 4k it uses up a fairly consistent 25% of my total available cpu power (it's a quad core, specifically an Intel Core i5 4670k running at the default clock speed, if that info would be helpful), though when I go to look at specific core usage, it seems to be split across all four cores.

Is scaling in options only supposed to swap between "Small" and "Auto"? I'm playing the game on a 4k monitor and it's so small as to be unplayable on small scale (even with the 200% scaling I have set through Windows) but at auto scaling, it's extremely laggy. I was hoping that there'd be integer options between 1x scaling and whatever auto scaling calculates out to.

The problem is that by not giving a choice between a male or female love interest, the devs are explicitly excluding anyone who would otherwise be interested in the visual novel. That was the make or break for me, for example, when it showed up in an email Itch sent me for a game I follow updating. I was quite interested in it until I found out that the only love interest is a single male character.

You do realize that the game page on this site has a standalone download for the game, right? It comes with an executable file.

There seems to be an issue with updating on the Itch app. For some reason it seems to consider the new update an invalid download so it won't allow you to update the game.

How about one based on distance traveled while completely unclothed?

Seems like there should be a check to ensure villages with an actual population, lol.

Really glad you wrote that. The part of the story I'd missed was fantastic. Though there are a few errors in the writing I noticed for this part that feel big enough to point out:

On the line ""Don't lie to me, my number one not-fan. I can tell!" said the poet", the poet should be the dancer. Also for "Wh-why did you make me wait...?" it feels like the name is switched around.

Ah, I think I see where I went wrong. Lycoris makes a comment on one of the bad endings that a good ending can only happen from telling the truth so after that I hadn't told Daffodil that the food was good. I think that's probably why I was having trouble getting it. Thanks!

Oh, is that so? That's a really neat touch.

And yes, I'd really appreciate it if you would do that. Unless completing both routes unlocks new choices to make or something (which I haven't noticed after replaying the entire story two more times after completing both their routes) I'm really not certain what to do to advance at this point.

Also a second question: I know I'm missing stuff since Lycoris has made that pretty clear but how do I get from the story before that to whatever I'm missing? I've gotten the good and bad endings for both Daffodil and Madeleine as well as the bad ending from leaving early. I'm really not sure what choices I could make that I haven't made yet. Lycoris made a comment about not lying but I've tried that and it just ended with me back on Madeleine's path again.

Bit of a random question but when you give Lycoris your name can she give different responses according to the name or was it just a hilarious coincidence that she made a comment about Wonderland after typing in the name Alice?
