Guys, can someone tell me how to get your stats over 600?
I played on easy from the beginning, worked in cafe/went to the pub each time it was available, only switching to waterboy/farm jobs plus farming when it was necessary for the Active stat (I went after Isabella). And in the end I had 420 in Spontaneous, 200+ in Active. That's the highest I could do and my grades were crap cause I had to sleep sometime. What am I doing wrong?

I so agree with you... Goodness, this game is hard! (And I'm not even joking, it's really hard to get the "A" endings) But is so addictive!
How dare you all to make such a good game!^__^

Josipa24, the Stats over 600 is actually the combined stats, not individual Stats. So, your Spontaneous and Active combined would be 620+...and bet the Stats over 600.

Couple minor typos.
Week 3, Thursday, playing as Max. Isabella says, "Here's you latte, Sally! A traditional breakfast for you, hot stuff."
I think that 'you' should be a 'your

I think that first 'and' should be 'an'

There was an event where Anne goes with Max to see his band practice and in the scene where they are in the city I noticed a coffee shop where its name is misspelled as Cofee House
Max's name changed from [color=#40BF40]GREEN[/color] to [color=#000000]BLACK[/color] and then back again after. Happens on the line "I reluctantly agree..."

fixed
Also noticed that some text in the scheduler spelt wrong when doing the yoga it says 'losser' when it should say 'looser'

This was in the 0.8.6 version so I am not sure if this was already resolved in the 0.8.7 version...
Hilarious... but I don't know how to fix that. Clearly it's some kind of hipster coffee joint. Where good spelling no longer applies.

Oh, I see. But i still got the breakup ending though. That shouldn't happen, right?
I think I'll try wiping the various versions of the beta I have and try again from scratch.

Version 0.8.7
This playthrough was Anne x Max.
The help text for the scheduler is a nice addition (and thanks for your explanation)! Some new notes about the scheduler: [list=1]
[*] I don't know whether it is the intended behaviour, but when an event occurs and the remaining activities are skipped for the day, you will also not receive the 15 energy points at the end of the day.
[*] When reaching 100 points in two parameters/stats in the same week, only one activity unlock message will be displayed at the start of the next week (however both will still be unlocked).
[*] The upgraded/unlocked activity replaces the original activity in the activity "selection window", however the original activity will remain in the scheduler (where you previously "placed" it) until you manually replace it. Is this behaviour ok?

[/list]
Other stuff (some of it isn't a big deal, but I thought to mention it regardless):
[list=1]
[*] If you save the game at the beginning of a week at the scheduler screen (before pressing "Start"), the save game description will be the description for the previous day. I first noticed this (if I recall correctly) at the end of Winter Break, where the week "ended" on the Friday.
[*] If you played the event on Week 01 - Saturday that lead to game/scenes1_edit.rpy 595 you would know that the guy shown in the event on Week 02 - Saturday (starting from game/scenes1_edit.rpy 2619) is Chad, but his name is displayed as ??? (but if you didn't play that first event then he would indeed be unknown). And if you didn't play the event on Week 01 - Saturday, then the reference to Chad in game/scenes1_edit.rpy 3560 (the event on Week 03 - Thursday) can be confusing at first as this is then the first reference to Chad and it only becomes clear he is Isabella's boyfriend later in the event.
[*] game/scenes1_edit.rpy 2297: Max speaks, but his sprite hasn't been shown for a while.
[*] game/scenes1_edit.rpy 4388: Anne's name is displayed, but judging from the context this is a monologue.
[*] game/scenes1_edit.rpy 4991: It reads "It's my first time hearing them in their full glory, as opposed to just on Max's guitar." - the sentence feels a bit funny to me.
[*] I started skimming through some of the posts, and read something about Rakesh's bindi and that it shouldn't appear. When Rakesh's image appears in the scheduler as part of an activity, the image still shows it.
[*] game/scenes1_edit.rpy 5609, 5611 and 5615: From the context, I am just wondering whether the background should be changed to the one outside the house.
[*] game/scenes1_edit.rpy 8057: The name displayed is "Professor", but shouldn't it be "Prof. Tasque"?
[*] game/scenes1_edit.rpy 8784: It reads "I cautiously go over and open the door. I barely hear Isabella 'eep' and duck down." - it might just be me, but I keep reading it as if it is Anne that ducks down and not Isabella.
[*] game/scenes1_edit.rpy 7853: It reads "I'm sure the others will figure out someone to stay behind." - the sentence feels a bit funny to me.
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 2119: Anne says "Looks like you both lose boys. Clearly, the winner is me. And all of our time, which we can now spend on useful things." - feels like something is missing from the sentence.
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 3267: I am guessing the sprite's are moved closer to indicate intimicy, but with the way they are positioned Anne is barely visible behind Max.
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 3900: Isabella's elbow is covering Carmen's face.
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 4184 (event on Week 13 - Tuesday): If you decide to skip the event (avoid the confrontation with Dominic about the puppy), there is no indication that Sally actually knew you were there and decided to bail on her. However at game/scenes2_edit.rpy 4204 it reads "I'm glad it all worked out, even if Sally isn't talking to me right now..." like she knew you were there.
[*] The first time I started on the event on Week 13 - Thursday (starting on game/scenes2_edit.rpy 4962), I got the impression that Anne was about to look after the puppy and not that she had already looked after it for Sally, which only became apparent as the event progressed (this might just be me).
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 4722 (event Week 13 - Thursday): From the start of the event there was no indication that Max was joining, so this scene is the first mention of him (so at first it surprised me that he was there).
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 6199: It reads "A few hours later, the area in front of the science building has been cleared out. Whatever it was, it looks like they cleared out, probably in a hurry too." - "cleared out" is mentioned twice.
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 6823: The sprite's are bunched up together and it ends up with Isabella's elbow covering Anne's face.
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 6836: Dominic is speaking, but his sprite hasn't appeared once in the scene.
[*] game/scenes2_edit.rpy 6863: Marvin's name isn't displayed (??? is shown), but immediately before this (game/scenes2_edit.rpy 6859) he is addressed by his name.
[*] Spring Break (event on Week 16 - Saturday): If you skip the event, after game/scenes3_edit.rpy 1044, the scheduler screen will show and it will go through Week 16 - Sunday activities (if you selected to play the event, at the end of the event it will go to the scheduler for Week 17).
[*] Event on Week 20 - Wednesday: The event "banner" is shown over the campus background, but during the banner animation the background fades and changes to the background for the house's common area. Is this intentional?
[*] After game/oneliners.rpy 1114 a traceback is shown:[code]I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:

Max's name changed from [color=#40BF40]GREEN[/color] to [color=#000000]BLACK[/color] and then back again after. Happens on the line "I reluctantly agree..."
This was fixed in 0.8.7
The help text for the scheduler is a nice addition (and thanks for your explanation)! Some new notes about the scheduler:
1. Are you sure? I checked in the code and I always add the +15 Energy after I advance the day by +1. That line is impossible to skip!
2. Ah OK. Yes I cannot queue two messages, so I am not sure if I can fix this, but at least both jobs unlocks properly
3. I'll try to see if I can replace the base with the advanced jobs in the scheduler when you unlock it
Thanks for the other stuff, fixed Rakesh image in the scheduler, and the crash in the activity (was another % character problem like the other) and will also check if you skip the Spring Break!

During the volleyball game, there is a sprite issue when you choose to have Anne bump the ball. You see Anne's sprite (which I don't think is suppose to be there) under Isabella's backside sprite.

1. Are you sure? I checked in the code and I always add the +15 Energy after I advance the day by +1. That line is impossible to skip!
I went back and had a closer look: as far as I can tell when you decide to skip the event, you get +15 Energy at the end of the day, but if you play the event you don't get any energy. I did a quick test run with save games I had for Week 06 and Week 17 (and I kept the activities the same between the runs):
[list]
[*]Week 06: skipped the events on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Energy is at 065% on Thursday after class.
[*]Week 06: skipped the event on Tuesday and played the events on Monday and Wednesday and Energy is at 035% on Thursday after class.
[*]Week 17: skipped the event on Wednesday and Energy is at 086% on Thursday after class.
[*]Week 17: played the event on Wednesday and Energy is at 071% on Thursday after class.
[/list]
Hope this helps - let me know if you need the save games.
jack1974Feb 17, 2014
OK will check better, is really strange, shouldn't happen
Will also check the volleyball game sprite.
jack1974Feb 17, 2014
Ahh wait, I understood now! Is because every event lowers your Energy by -15. So that is not a bug but is intended I'm not sure if to keep it though, since when you have the event you also miss the stat increase so probably even the energy penalty is too much...
annyo84Feb 17, 2014
That's the ending either way, though one is a bit happier than the other. I had the same reaction, I even sent my savegame in to make sure it wasn't a bug
In mine they broke up way later in the years...is that the better ending?
Are your Dominic cg scenes available in your gallery? They are not for me.
Yes there's a better ending. I am not sure why the CG don't show up in your gallery, I just tried here and they're fine! do other romance show up or only Dominic's one are bugged for you?
Playing as Max: Sometimes (always??) the RPG playing does cost me 30 bucks (instead of 15)
In 0.8.6 that is fixed (just tried here now).
Yeah, the cgs i got with Mac works fine, it's only the Dominic ones that don't work. I also have a question. How can i skip the text? I can't figure out how to do it.
jack1974Feb 17, 2014
You can press CTRL key to fast skip the texts (works also in the scheduler). About the Dominic CG not sure, here works fine and I didn't had other reports of that issue (which would be strange since the code is the same for all the CG), maybe if you replay them they'll unlock?
jack1974Feb 17, 2014
Also, managed to do the "automatic upgrade" job, so when you unlock an advanced job, the old one in the scheduler will be automatically replaced by the new one coming in version 0.8.9 obviously.

Yeah, now that i know how to skip i'll replay his route. Thanks
I just want to make sure i understood something.
The reason i had a break up ending with Dominic was because i didn't have full grades or even the happy ending is a break up ending with Dominic? If i remember correctly i had around 905 on grades. Also grades affect each character ending too?
jack1974Feb 17, 2014
No not the grades, the STATS influence the variant of ending you get. If you have at least 600 in the two character's related stats, you get the happier ending
annyo84Feb 17, 2014

I had more than 600 in stats but i got the break up ending with him anyway, so i guess that's the best i could get. Thanks
