so i get it that it’s not really for android right? i’d love to see it for android but as of now it doesn’t seem like it actually is
There are some older versions (they’re from a few months ago only though, so “old” might be the wrong word) with an Android version and I am working on being able to release to Android again.
The releases stopped, because it is not yet integrated into the new release workflow of GoL. But that’s just a question of time.
My game becomes unplayable after inviting Jane over for pizza(can’t save/go back). Can I still get the Jane events without inviting her over?
This is unexpected behavior, I will look into it.
You can still get all Jane events without inviting her ovef for Pizza.
I’m really loving the game, but something that always bothered me, is how unclear everything is, I get that’s what you’re going for, its a life sim! But I never know how to get the most out of the game, because on several updates nothing happend for in game weeks at a time and me trying every single option available to me and nothing, that makes me think I’m done, but then I see people here talking about events and segments that I’ve never encountered. And now sometimes an update is like “New jane event” and no matter what I do, I just don’t seem to trigger it, how do you trigger Jane events? And before I know it I’m done with school and don’t really get to see her like… at all, I go on hikes with her constantly but it doesn’t seem to do anything at all, so I needed to share that, to me its just really unclear how to trigger certain events and it prevents me from enjoying the entire game,
@JustChris The new character engine that I am working on will come with web services, and I will integrate a Wiki into these so that those who did not follow along update for update, still have a chance to catch up. The game really needs a wiki.
For now, all I can suggest is to read the release notes of each release to get an overview of what has been added in each update. If there are specific questions about mechanics or certain events I am happy to help. It’s best to contact me viá DM (e.g. Patreon or here on Weightgaming) or here within this thread.
While I am not that active on Discord, there are people on the Discord that will help happily too.
New version will be out by tomorrow night.
I will release the June version a bit later in June as well and instead work on the character engine at the start of the month.

Went to boot up the new version and received the following error:
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

I implemented a custom fix in Ren’Py to fix the Mac exports, and I forgot to uncomment the pc distribution fix from when I was testing the solution…
Links were just updated on Patreon and Subscribestar. Sorry for the inconvenience.
EDIT: I just downloaded it myself to verify it now works (it does).
Small reminder to everyone: It’s June the 1st, which means subscribing today will come with the biggest benefit. That’s because Patreon always renews subscribtions on the 1st of each month, regardless of when someone subscribed in the previous month.
Just a small update for everyone: The new character window engine is coming along quite nicely, making steady progress.
while i haven’t played the current build might i suggest SirMister eventually adding events for our protag the decline of her mobility and things our character can’t forcing her to do other activities instead to keep herself socially active?
New version will finally release this week
Sorry for the waiting times. I was eagerly working on the new image engine. While not yet done, it has progressed greatly. I just finished implementing a queue system. The finish line slowly becomes visible at the end of the horizon.
FOOD club cafeteria doesn’t work for me. Sorry for phone screenshots. It’s when I get into the poppy conversation, and try to eat donuts
Thank you for noting, I resolved that issue
Something unexpected happened; new version will be ready on Friday (latest). Probably earlier.
New Version [v0.46]
Huff, this one took a lot longer than expected. I think this is mostly because I had been busy with the image engine.
With this update, I hope to achieve an elevated gameplay experience. To achieve this, I have implemented a new UI component that can (and will) be re-used for all the little stores that we have inside the game (cafeterias, bakery, etc.). During development, I tried to take care of every little detail. Overall, I had to implement A LOT of animations to ensure that all the buttons gave just the correct feedback. It is hard to put in words, but if you try it out yourself, you will understand what I mean.
Honestly, I am proud of the quality of the new UI. Any modders out there will enjoy building custom stores inside the game (it’s literally a line of code for each item). It’s a masterpiece in code, so to speak. Okay, this might be slightly exaggerated, but it’s pretty cool. Trust me.
This new store UI is only active for the fast food restaurant (if you go to town and then visit the fast food restaurant as a customer). Why? Well, there is not a lot of content behind the fast food restaurant. If the UI breaks, the game is still fun to play. With the next update, you will see this new store design everywhere inside the game.
Furthermore, I reimagined gym memberships, adjusted the prices to better fit the real-world economy, and added a new UI for purchasing memberships. This component is a custom solution for the gym and does not integrate into the new universal store design.

Is there a full changelog for v0.46? Was this update just for the UI? It does look a lot nicer
How do i progress through Jane’s storyline? I have stopped getting any new messages for the projects.
Yes, this update only includes updates to the UI, and a few tweaks in the background (mostly bug fixes). The UI updates involved quite a lot of work.
It really depends on what event you’ve seen last. Most of the events, however, trigger automatically. Most of them are bound to time and simply occur, if you meet the conditions.
