Weekly Update - .309c - Mr. Maywood III - 12/28/22
🕑 Added 2022-12-23 12:26:05 +0000 UTCAlright, this update introduces the first part of Mr. Maywood's stuff, based on those who transformed him at the wedding and kept it going afterwards. There'll be more from the other routes (and this one) with the next update, but for now this allows you to make it permanent and optionally give him/her an engagement contract afterwards.
Note: There is an issue with the new clips right now that makes them have a sped up framerate, I discovered this late into the release so I'll fix that later. If you download the update now, you'll need to OVERWRITE those clips in the future to ensure that you have the correct copies, so just keep that in mind.
EDIT (.308a+): The images have now been correctly fixed. For anyone that downloaded .308a, you'll have to download .308a+ and then OVERWRITE the files when you move them into your original folder.
EDIT (.309a): The next release is out which effectively finishes off the Mr(s). Maywood stuff. The other non-transformation routes have also been started, but those branches will get finished in the next release.
EDIT (.309b): This update finishes most of the Mr. Maywood stuff and also addresses a bug that was preventing the correct flag from being set if you transformed him. I still have to go back and edit the transformation passages if you didn't previously transform him at the wedding, but otherwise it should be correct now. In addition, I've added a feature in the sidebar for people that are cheating to create a checkpoint and then jump back to it at will without losing progress elsewhere. As with mods though, I don't want any bug reports about issues that spring up from it, so use at your own risk.
EDIT (.309c): This is a smaller update to do some bugfixes and finish off the last remaining bit of Mr. Maywood's stuff. In addition, I also made a modification to the checkpoint loader so that it correctly stores the time when a checkpoint's made (so you don't accidentally mess up the calendar repeating events). I'm hoping to get some Heather/Nikki stuff out tomorrow, but there's a chance the event doesn't actually start coming out until Thursday night.
Also, the poll to determine the next game I work on after College Daze is finished, and the winner is Aphrodesia, the political dictatorship game. I recently learned that another game has the same name though (what are the odds o.o) so I'll have to come up for something else with it. Here's a link to a description of all of the various games that were available to be voted on, and here's the tally for everything (the winner only won by a handful of votes):
Neo Noir - Cyberpunk game 111
Dead Again - Zombie survival game 29
Lost and Found - Supernatural Island Mystery game 95
A New Year - Time loop game 109
Therapeutic - Therapy game 62
Lawmaker - Bunker Overseer game 58
Aphrodisia - Dictator political game 114
Monster Mash - Vampire mystery game 35
Olympus - Modern god mystery game 41
Game Master - Jigsaw 'game' game 33
Show Time - 'Reality' TV Show game 48
Moneybags - Financial control game 29
Reunion - Superhero game 44
The Deck - Jumanji 'game' game 69
Holiday Cheer - Special gifts game 15
The Photographer - Special camera game 47
Rise of Al'Azar - CD Prequel game 39
The Salesman - Door-to-Door game 16

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1) If you need a clean install, download the .300b ALL FILES pack from this post.
Step 2) Unzip the all files pack to create your College Daze folder. From now on, you'll extract future updates and place them in this same folder, overwriting the previous content to update it.
Step 3) If necessary, download an update only pack like the one in this post.
Step 4) Unzip the update only pack and copy the contents of it.
Step 5) Paste these contents in your original 'all files' folder. Your computer will ask if you want to overwrite the existing HTML file. Click yes.
Step 6) If you did everything right, you should have an HTML file that you click to run the game and a fan-made Images folder that has folders from 'aug02' to '205'. If you find an 'Images' folder inside your 'Images' folder, that means you pasted it incorrectly and need to re-copy and paste stuff.
Step 7) When you run the game, the images and text should display as normal. If they don't, send me a message and we can try to figure this out further.

Just to let everyone know, it's going to take one more day for the Heather/Nikki/Kylie stuff to start appearing, sorry.
G28
No, you don't. As 309c notes, you just need 309a first.
Tony
Where is the 309b update? Do you need it before using c?
G28
You can see the dev map that has all of the events listed. The game still has a full 'week' of content to get through and then epilogues.

How close are you to the "end" of the game?
Zyrus
Oh shit, if I had known about this poll, I would have gone for Rise of Al'Azar. That seems like a story I'd love to check out.
G28
Haha, well if you join the discord, we've already started talking about ideas for the Dictator game, so I think it's going to be pretty exciting. And Merry Christmas to you as well!
G28
Thank you, you too!
JoJo
hope you had a merry Christmas, wish you a happy new year too :D
batspeak
A New Year sounds like a great premise imo can't wait for the next game tho and have a Merry Christmas!
G28
All good, just glad it wasn't a mistake in the game lol.
HighGrove
It actually wound up being neither; I just fouled up the extraction process. My bad!
G28
Hm, I must have either missed a passage that did that or you saved in a passage that I specifically warned players not to. Or you're running the wrong version of the html.
HighGrove
Where is this content supposed to crop up? After the transition from Sunday to Monday the game still has me skip to the Lydia/Ward scene and then deadends there.

I think it's best to keep, that optional
