Version 0.281 Fix Update is now available!
Well... I guess we celebrated Version 0.28 a little too early.
We've just released Version 0.281, a maintenance update focused on fixing several issues that slipped through during testing. Fortunately, none of them were major enough to break the overall gameplay, although one particular issue turned out to be more important than we initially realized.
As many of you know, High School Days offers multiple story routes, and sometimes that means players make choices we never expected.
For example... if Ashley and Kana leave town during the Family comes first or Stream your life events?
- How do the Halloween events work when both sisters are supposed to appear in costume, and each of them has their own special scene (in different events though)?
- Or what about Chloe's event, Jealousy Runs in the Family, which begins after Chloe catches Ashley and the MC leaving his room?
And here's another one...
- What if Elizabeth has left town during the Still loving you event, but she's supposed to appear in the Halloween in a costume?
Originally, we had implemented a workaround to prevent these scenarios from breaking the story. However, thanks to reports from a few players (Seriously, who would tell Lizzy it's best if she leaves?), we discovered that the solution wasn't as reliable as we'd hoped.
As a result, we've gone back and redesigned a large portion of those event conditions to ensure they behave much more naturally, regardless of the choices you've made throughout the game.
