v0.11

Overhauled Save System: You can now delete saves and lock them to prevent accidental deletion. Additionally, some other improvements have been made to the save system.

NOTE: Old saves may disrupt the appearance of the menu, so they have been reset. I’m really sorry for this, it won’t happen again in the future. If you want your old saves back, here’s what you need to do:

1. Press windows + R and type **%appdata%**

2. Navigate to the renpy folder and copy the files from the RedSonata-saves folder to the RedSonata.saves folder.

However, I just recommend to start over.

Quick Menu Option: On PC, you can now toggle the quick menu on or off. It’s still turned off by default.

Bug Fixes:

Fixed an issue where the game would return you to the main menu if you decided not to save the photo.
Fixed an error that sometimes occurred when loading a save file in which the phone interface was open.

v0.1
Initial Release

Developer Notes:

Please keep in mind that the game is a fan-based parody. I have nothing to do with the original series owned by Syougo Kinugasa.
Please, support the official release of the upcoming light novels, manga and anime seasons.

Brand new story with our all beloved characters (more are coming soon).
No sprites are used in this project. I wanted every scene to be a unique one in it’s own way, without constantly repeating the same character image.
Licensed Music and Sound design.
Quite a few animations made in Adobe After Effects.
NSFW scenes (not many yet, story needs a bigger development).

Questions you may have:

Is Xgirl going to be added?

Probably yes, just in its own time.

How long before the next update?

Hard to say. But the initial plan is to update once in one-two months.

Is the art AI generated?

Not 100%. I find AI generated stuff too unpredictable to generate consistent images, and I also don’t have a powerful enough PC to fully use it. So I’m using AI to enhance my sketches instead. Not using sprites makes this project about 10 times more difficult, but since I’m using AI in some capacity, I’ve decided to take this approach.
