We believe this should be the last translation fix necessary. Players who were encountering errors pointing toward the French translation should no longer have those. We'll be keeping an eye out in case players happen upon any further errors, so please report them if you find them.

It's taken us some time to really understand how the translations work in Ren'Py, and one of our moderators (608xperience, who's been active on the forums here) has been instrumental in getting these errors fixed and imparting his knowledge on us. As first-time developers, we're grateful for both his assistance and your patience. We may not get it right out the gate, but we're not going to step away until we know everything is working as intended.

Thanks again, and as always if you discover anything wonky going on, please let us know in the bug reports forum.

As promised, this is the patch that should have fixed the issues with the French translation and a handful of other issues that had arisen.

This should be the last update to the game until our Spanish translator has completed their job. Until then, if you do notice any bugs or issues, feel free to post them in the Bug Reports forum or join our Discord server and report them there.

Hello, all!

Apologies for how long it took to implement this patch. As we were moving the build over to a more current version of Ren'Py, and adding the now-complete French translation, we kept finding more and more little things to add in to the build. Between that, and testing, it took us a couple of days to get this ready for you all.

As mentioned, we've updated Ren'Py from the previous 7.4.3 to 7.4.6. This should do away with the Ren'Py version error that a small number of players was encountering (though the error made the game unplayable, for which we apologize). With this update, that error should be a thing of the past.

Also, we've implemented a French translation. For those of you who were waiting patiently for that, we much appreciate it! We hope the translation meets your approval.

Otherwise, this patch includes about a dozen other, minor issues, many of which wouldn't be noticed by most players. But as I said before: we want this to be as excellent an experience as possible, so we'll continue working on any further bugs as they arrive while we continue work on our next game concurrently.

That's it! As usual, let us know if you have any errors or bugs come up. Post them in the Bug Reports forum so we can address them as quickly as possible. Thank you again, and happy gaming!

You might notice a small update was just posted. We're fixing a few lines where audio wasn't playing when it should, plus a couple of minor fixes for images not displaying and for the Portuguese translation.

If you find any other errors, please post them in the Bug Reports forum so we can follow up. There's 3+ years of code from a newbie coder in this and sometimes we did things a little awkwardly. We appreciate you all letting us know where things aren't working as intended. We want this to be the best experience possible, so we'll continue these small patches until there are absolutely zero errors coming up.

This was our second attempt at fixing a font error that was apparently spreading from the Chinese translation like a zombie plague. There shouldn't be further font errors after this, but if you happen to catch any errors after this update please let us know in the Bug Reports forum.
