Where The Heart Is [S1 Rev1]

Season 1 – Rev 1
Folks,
I’ve been getting this question a lot, so rather than write a load of different individual responses, I just thought I’d post it.
The question is: How many chapters / episodes are there in Season 1.
The answer is:
There are 6 chapters in Season 1. This includes the upgraded version of the first 10 episodes of the original game, plus a lot of extended scenes and brand new scenes. Overall, it has twice the content (Script / options / dialog) compared to the original 10 episodes and more than 3x times the artwork. So please don’t assume 6 chapters = only 6 episodes of the original. This is not the case.
I went with chapters versus episodes to distinguish between the re-do (chapters) and the original (episodes) and I tried to keep the new chapters tied into bundles that cover whole days (or in some cases 2 or 3 whole days) whereas the original episodes were a bit messier with (sometimes) a single day being spread across more than one episode.

This demo will add days 4 and 5 (second half of day 5 has some issues at the moment, hence the last minute scramble.
The re-do has more pathing (to allow you to choose no interest/ no romance with more women early on if they don’t float your boat). This is great for those that felt some romances were “forced on you” in the original, but bad for me, as it significantly increases the number of paths I have to write and keep track of!  
In addition to the upgrade of the original scenes, Day 4 has a lot of new scenes that weren’t part of the original, including a full date with Debbie, full date with Lily, a short scene with Jenna, and another short scene with Katie/Jenna.

Ep17
You can now name your saves to make it easier to keep track of your different playthru’s.
If you don’;t want the save name prompt, you can turn this off in the “Preferences” section.

Gallery:
We’ve added a gallery section wher you can click on a particular lady and join the action in whatever scene you want (with max stats for the lady). This will allow you to sample any scenes that you might have missed out on due to choices or attribute check fails.

Change MC Name:
You can change the MC’s name at any point in the game.

Dialog / Text box preferences:
This has been here awhile but we never formally announced it. In “preferences”, you can change the following:

Dialog – Changes (or removes) the color of the shading box behind the dialog text.
Choice – Changes (or removes) the color of the shading box behind the menu choice options.
Chars – Toggle if you want to see the mini photo / image of the speaking character.

If you turn off text background completely (works best for me too), there might be some parts of the game where it’s easier to read if you turn on a background temporarily.

This great story continues.

Ep. 11
Made some changes to my initial plans for this episode. Increased the focus on the three primary characters (as I felt after 11 episodes,things were starting to lose pace a bit).
Focus on the three primaries obviously impacts the air time for the supporting cast, but expect that to balance in the next episode. (Although Angel & Zarah do make appearances)
Bella / Jolina / Lily / Debbie do not appear, but they WILL be in episode 12 (where Elaine also makes her entrance)
