Hey everyone.

I need to apologize and explain what's happening.

I've had to remove chapters 16 and 17 from public access temporarily because of serious technical issues that came up during development.

The problem is with save compatibility. Due to complications while working on these chapters, existing save files will most likely break. I've tried to fix this, but honestly—it's not looking good. The most realistic solution is that I'll need to provide new, clean save files for players so you can continue from the right point without losing the story progress.

I know this is really frustrating. Losing saves is never fun, and I'm genuinely sorry this happened. I should've caught these issues earlier, but they slipped through, and now I'm dealing with the consequences.

The release is now delayed until March 29th in the evening. If I manage to finish everything earlier, I'll release it sooner—but I want to be realistic about the timeline rather than rush and deliver something that still doesn't work properly.

I'll make sure the new save files are ready and easy to use when the chapters go back up. You won't lose story content—just the technical progress, which I'll help you restore.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. I really appreciate everyone sticking with this project despite setbacks like this. I'll keep you updated as soon as I have more news.

Again, I'm sorry for the mess. I'm working to fix it as quickly as I can.
