Changelog:
- Fixed various spelling errors
- Minor coding changes to some of the endings
- Additions to the storyline:
-Mentioned that Ashley is bisexual on the Ashley+Nicole path
-Added dialogue to further explain why your Childhood Friend is angry with the MC about seeing other girls during the All Girls Bad Ending, even though she initially was okay with you being in a casual relationship with you.
- Added the points required for each girls’ game ending to the In-Game Walkthrough
- When playing the Shortcake ending, there were missing jumps points that were needed for the logic to jump back to. This has been fixed now.
An issue with the BFF ending:
We had a number of members mention that “The BFF” ending icon was not unlocking in the endings replay gallery.
It has been fixed now so if you’ve played through until the end of that ending, the unlocked icon will now be visible and unlocked in the ending replay gallery.
There was an additional ending icon that was showing right before the bonus image for the endings that was not possible to unlock.
It has been fixed now and will no longer be visible.
Broken Saves from the previous update:
As stated in the Game Day post on Wednesday, some of your saves might not load due to ongoing issues with Renpy.
We have made some attempts to fix this issue, but we could not replicate it in house to confirm if it solved the issues.
We did try to have some of our members who reported the issues try the new versions before this release, but we have yet to hear back from them.
So for those of you who are still struggling to find some of the endings because of save issues or lack of points (and have the Game Walkthrough), and don’t want to play from the very start of the game again, there is a simple solution to this.
When you open the Chapter 3 app, select "New Game" and look for "Manual Entry".
Then answer each question and when you get to where it asks you to enter the points for each girl, put 350 for each.
It will give you the max totals for each girl automatically.
Then simply speed run through to the new update and you should be able to find all the endings you’re missing.
Final thoughts:
We appreciate all the feedback that we’ve received over the past few days from you all.
We understand that not everything was to your liking, it can’t always be.
The reality is, we could’ve created over fifty different endings given the size of the cast of characters that have featured throughout three chapters of Sunshine Love.
We felt we had to prioritise some endings over others which is why some of the more prominent characters in the game had more detailed endings.
Sometimes we like to leave a little mystery in our games and what could happen in the future on specific paths.
Therefore, it could be down to your own interpretation of what happens after a path concludes.
Whereas some paths have a more definitive conclusion.
And then there are characters that don’t have their own ending, but the better idea was for them to feature on another character’s ending instead.
You might think that it’s been difficult to get all the endings, but this is a game just as much as it’s a visual novel, and games aren’t always meant to be simple. ;)
Anyway, we sincerely hope we’ve given you enough reason to play SL over and over again, and maybe even find scenes or paths or game endings that you may not have the first time around.
As you can probably tell, even though we do numerous checks and beta tests before each update is released, not everything goes according to plan and sometimes things get overlooked.
Or we simply have no idea about issues in our releases until after the update has been put out.
Thanks to everyone who has let us know of any problems that they’ve found since playing the final release, and also to anyone who did some testing to help make sure we fixed some of them.
We sincerely wish you all a safe and Happy Christmas, and we look forward to sharing some previews and details about our brand-new game, which will be our fourth VN.
Stay tuned for some news about that very soon!
All the best for the rest of 2023 and the New Year!
Mrdots and the Team.

Hi relatively new here, is the version on the OM store (not sure if I'm allowed to type the full name) the Patreon or the 'Alternate' and if it's the Patreon, does the Alternate have deleted scenes/cut content then?

The simplest fix would be to go into the childhood friend's character profile (in your tablet) and manually change her name to Lisa.

hello I'm a new subscriber and I am going from Chapter 2 to 3 and the name of my childhood from was Lisa and for Chapter 3 it's not using that name, its instead using Alex. It's switched over on every chapter except for the 3rd one. Is there anyway to fix that?
HearszAM
Yes, if you are on our Subscribestar page. If you're on our discord, private message me and I forward you some links for the other version (as I can't post them on here).

There's an alternate version of the game?
HearszAM
There's a hidden ending where Svetlana features - if you have the Walkthrough, it will tell you how to find it. As for Trisha, she features on one of the other girls' endings but only in the alternate version of the game (if you know what I mean). ;)
Kyle Surber
There's no endings for Svetlana or Trisha? 😥
