Fixes and Teeny-Tiny Update
An update has been made to correct a few bugs, a bunch of typos and spelling errors, and pronoun errors. Additionally, there is a tiny bit of new content with Oswin if you’d like to zip through it at the end of chapter 3. The remaining segments for this chapter are still in progress and this one is, so far, unedited and untested. I didn’t want to take it out since it just an extra little hoorah for your MC to enjoy.
Thank you so much to my Google Form Champions. At least two of you are my superstars that went above and beyond the call of duty. Your patience and diligence are greatly appreciated. I got several responses helping me find all those pesky typos. Kudos to the person who probably caught on that the first chapter was originally written in first person! I spent DAYS trying to correct the tense and thought I caught everything – clearly not! Weirdly, going through those forms was kinda fun for me – I was the weird kid in your high school who really liked doing worksheets...
Another shout-out to those that managed to find the bug in chapter 3 that put a full stop to progress! Honestly, getting your choices to work out that perfectly was impressive. You had to get a very specific “score” from your choices to do that (your lucky number is 19, just so you are aware). I believe, unless I am horribly mistaken, the issue was a matter of a mere “ = ” missing from the code! I have added that and actually changed some of the numerical values around for balance. My apologies for the frustration that caused.
There was one bug I could not quite work out. One concerning the use of links in the menu and not being able to return to the game. I wasn’t able to re-create this, though I feel it’s probably there because I have also experienced this in other IFs. If this happens, the back arrows in the top of the menu might let you go back to the page you were on if you click back far enough; that has worked for me before. I am putting a note about it inside the menu pages just in case until I can figure this one out.
I think I got most of the pronoun errors found. Naturally, most are those were hidden in chunks of text I had reused lines from for a few passages, so that just perpetuated the issue.
Anyway, that is all for now. The last segments of chapter 3 should be done fairly soon, perhaps next week if I have time over the weekend!
Take care and enjoy, my friends. ^_^

So I just tried to do this and this bug happened when I open the "Credits" page on the side, when I clicked on the links in the "Codex" and when I clicked on the links in "Character info".
I remember a dev talking about a similar bug in their game - if you opened multiple of the menus on the side one after the other you wouldn't be able to return to the game. They said something along the lines of "The 'return to game' button only brings you back a single page so you need to open a menu, close it and then open another". [sadly I do not remember where the hell I read this ;--;]
But for your game the 'return to game' button doesn't bring me back at all it just...refreshes(?) the page I'm on?? And only in those specific situations ;-;
Also my saves don't work anymore? They worked fine before this update. I have no problem replaying, just thought I'd mention this.
I'm so sorry! That is so aggravating. I made a lot of updates to text and some of the ch. 3 variables, so maybe that has broken saves for some reason. I'll do some digging on the menu issue. I have a friend I may be able to tap into to help who's a programmer, but she's pretty busy as is, so it may be a while. It would have to be in the template I used, so fixing that is going to be very hard for me unless I can find some specific instructions on it. I'll dig around for others who have used the same one and see what I can find. Thank you for posting about it, my friend; sorry I broke your game though! Before chapter 4 releases, I am going to try very hard to make an option to put in your choices and character data so you don't have to keep doing this over and over! ^_^
How is it that I managed to make an update post about fixes typos when the SECOND word of the post has a typo? LOL
Oh well, I fixed it too. Send help, I'm sleepy.
