Update 1.199 with Gallery
🕑 Added 2025-10-03 15:16:20 +0000 UTCThanks for your patience, folks! There's gonna be a lot of stuff to take a look at with this update, so have at it! (Lots to read in this post, but please check it before asking questions in case they are answered here!)
*EDIT - Apparently, something is wrong with Harodl's Day 28 code for the token stuff, so... I have to figure out what the deal is with that! Sorry, folks. As it stands, I suppose you can only unlock 3 of the images there.
Dwayne Day 29 - Time to hit the courts! You haven't seen your team since the Weekend trip to the club, so... Hopefully things aren't super awkward!
Updated the Character bio pages! This has been on my to-do list for AGES, and I couldn't decide on a design. I finally landed on something I thought was really fitting, and Ger brought it to life! I gotta say, I love how it's looking so far. As it stands, all of the images aren't available yet, but Spencer and Harold's are there. It's lacking a lot of information too, but hey, one step at a time! Most of you will probably have some of the special images unlocked in the bio pages for those two, but for those of you that don't... More stuff unlocks as routes progress! (So Harold and Spencer have some fun extra things attached to their pages).
Added the Pinata! This one has been in the works for a bit, so I took some of the time from my break to implement it. There are cases where I want more images/outfits for the guys, but they don't exactly fit in the routes, so how do I handle that? Well, part of it is through the pinata!
So, how does it work?
As you read through the routes, you will earn tokens for each day you read. Some of you will find that you have some tokens already, as I've implemented a handful of them with Richard's and Dwayne's most recent days. (All of the other routes now have them added in as well at this point!)
Now, I'll tell you all now, you don't get them for just skipping through dialog. They are on a timer system that Medwyn helped me set up. Generally between 2-5 minutes depending on how long the day is. It's set up in a way that it expects people to be reading things and not just skipping through (sorry for all of you that have been through the routes multiple times before, but... it can't be helped!).
For every 5 tokens you get, you can redeem them at the Pinata page in the EXTRAS menu. You'll get a whack at the pinata, and you'll get a reward along with it!
At the moment, there are a total of 21 unlocks available. A huge chunk of those are only available as long as you've played through Coach's route again (At least through the end of Day 28, and there are variations depending on your outfit choice that day!).
I have plenty more I want to add to it (I kinda forgot to add a few things I already have too), but I think this is an entertaining way to add in stuff I wouldn't be able to fit into routes properly otherwise, and it encourages folks to at least give the other guys a chance~
Day Skip Information - Now, along with the token system, the Day Skip has been updated too. The intent of the day skip was for if the game breaks or saves break, getting to the newest day was easier, but for the final build, I don't want folks just jumping to days at random if they've not read anything! The Day Skip will only allow you to jump to days you've read now, so if you've not read days, you can't skip to them.
Unfortunately, that also means even if you have read them already, if doesn't mean they are unlocked now, since I had to go through and add a bunch of variables to trigger that stuff. At most, it'll just be Richard and Dwayne's recent days that have day skips unlocked.
Russian Translation - Thanks to the efforts of DiaLartMond, the majority of ExcA has a Russian Translation option. It was completely fan-made, and you can select that language through the OPTIONS menu. I've verified a handful of the things as best as I can, but as I don't speak Russian, there's only so much I can do! So, for my Russian readers out there, let me know how it is!
Some other misc. things I did was remove a bunch of old sound/music files, fixed Dwayne's Hot Tub scene in the image gallery and adjusted the gallery unlock for the LnL stuff if you took the non-practical outfits route first.
Now, October is upon us!
For those of you who aren't aware, I usually spend October crafting an entirely new project that isn't related to ExcA, but for the first time ever, October's work will be for ExcA! CaptainGerBear and I have talked about something to do, so the next update will be for this special update. Like usual, however, I will not update in the middle of October and will still be updating on the 31st! Please look forward to a special October update for ExcA later this month. We have some fun ideas in mind, and I hope you guys all get a kick out of it too. Things in CrestHaven are going to get a little weird...
Sorry for the long read, but I -think- that covers everything I wanted to mention with this update!
