If you are having trouble with the tutorial, you might wanna take a look at this one too: https://itch.io/t/3275551/tutorial-how-to-run-the-game-successfully
It's pretty much the same thing but it has pictures and stuff.
Make sure that when you are extracting, you set your encoding to Japanese. And every time you open the game, you need to open it with the locale.
I have mixed feelings about this latest update, but I'm hopeful it will pay off! I definitely wasn't expecting what we have so far, and I'm excited for what comes next.
I like this VN a lot so far, and I think one of my favorite things yet is the world-building. I think the story was good at getting me invested and informing me what I need to know without being overwhelming. In particular, it's easy to get familiar with the characters very quickly, and I appreciate that!
The only thing I didn't like in particular about this VN is the flip-flopping at the beginning. I think when you get used to the back-and-forth with the past and present, it's okay. But at the beginning, I was very confused what was going on and what the story was about. If I were to change it, I might try to make the flip-flopping in the early game slower and more obvious to give the reader time to get into the motion of things.
Keep it up, looking forward to what's in store!
I think it would be an interesting twist if Maruk was hiding stuff from the MC. I feel like since he is very blunt and straight forward about his concern we could assume that what he says is what he sees, but I think he would be just as ready to lie for the sake of security at the expense of the MC.
