BIP - FoA version 1.0.0

Hey Blossoms and Buds.

It's time. The full second draft is here. Remember you'll have access to it for seven days before it comes back down so I can submit it to Hosted Games. Please enjoy, and if you happen to spot any continuity errors (that is, places where things happen that shouldn't according to what's already happened, like Alekto apologizing when she's already done so or the game acting like you know someone you've never met on your playthrough or things like that), please, please let me know!

Those don't get caught by automatic testing, and I'm not sure if whatever editing I get from HG will cover that sort of thing, and I'd really hate for any such errors to end up in the final product.

Anyway, as much as I'd appreciate it, this is mostly here for you to have fun with, and I hope you do. Thank you so much for your support; the game wouldn't be what it is without you.

Ah, nope, that was an indentation error. Excellent catch; thank you!

Jess

Oh! Haha, yes, I did miss that XD due to the response being the same for both options, I thought something might have been missing--but I understand now hehe. As well, if I'm remembering correctly (apologies if I'm not) , with Pyri's route, after going to Tartarus, you can ask them about how the spirits are as well, but Pyri never gives any dialogue back unlike the others, is this because Alekto explained it having been there too, so Pyri doesn't have more to add? I read their route first haha being my favourite, so I may be misremembering!

Ah, this is not actually a bug, heh. I just wasn't clear enough. Hades is semi-misunderstanding, here. He takes the comment to be directed at both of them (the plural 'you,') and so makes a lighthearted comment to Kerberos about him having an admirer. I'll add a bit of text to hopefully make this more apparent. Also, thanks so much. I'm really glad the new stuff is enjoyable. :)

Loving everything so far! The additional scenes for everyone I have really enjoyed =) the characters are amazing as ever, and I love being able to explore the different options and routes! Also this may be a bug (I'm reading the Dashingdon version)--when pursuing romantic interest in Hades, in the scene where he arrives to ask the PC to join him and Kerberos on a walk, you can choose the 'Well...I admit that does sound nice. I was...sort of hoping to spend more time with you.' On the next page it does not have Hades react to this, rather I got the response: 'Hades lifts a pristine eyebrow and turns slightly towards Kerberos. "Did you hear that? You've an admirer.' Which I assume is linked to the 'You had me at 'Kerberos.'' choice, and this is supposed to have a different one?

just finished: real tears in my eyes, soul ascended, etc etc- foa really just feels like a warm hug to the spirit and i'm so happy to have accompanied it on its journey thus far. i'm so fond of these characters and i'm pretty sure there's a dedicated section of my brain that houses this version of hades now. you've done great- thank you so much !!! to what comes next <33333

Aha, thank you! That should now be fixed on dashingdon; I just forgot the same variable was referenced later so when I changed its name everything else got funky. :)

Jess

This build did fix the issue with leaving the wedding party early (yay), but even if that happens, the game indicates that we stayed on Olympus without an option to explore and meet Makaria.
