Build 2.1 release: Consistency fixes, new Vincent sprite, qol changes.


Hi all! this update is quite sudden and fairly small but it was a very necessary update.

This update is mainly here to fix some typos and some of the small consistency errors I noticed I had made during the writing of ch2.

Firstly, I realised I've made a bit of a small goof when it comes to the writing of Raphael's route. His comments regarding his employment did not match Vincent's. This was a pretty glaring oversight on my end, and I felt like it needed to be addressed sooner rather than later.

Another change is during ch2, several characters bring up how important GBL united is in-universe, but I didn't feel like I properly made that clear during ch1, so both Theodore's and Vincent's scenes now make that more clear.

There's a few other smaller writing changes that were made for consistency that I won't be outlining here. But I'd suggest reading them as they are all listed in the changelog below.

Other than that, this update also adds a redrawn sprite for Vincent, nothing extravagant - just keeps him more in line with the rest of the main characters with improved proportions and better colouring. The jacket version will return later.

Lastly, some qol: Many typos should have been fixed, the textbox was made much more visibly transparent so you can actually see the lower half of the sprites...and previously I mentioned wanting to reduce the file size. I ended up finding that the large file size was a result of all of the unused music in the files, so I've taken it all out. This should reduce the total file size by ~200MB.

That is all, as per normal: if you find any errors, have any questions or just want to chat, message me on discord @final_bear. Otherwise: read the devlog for the full list of changes! See you soon for the build 3 preview. 

2.1 Changelog:

New stuff:

+ 1 new redrawn sprite for Vincent.

Writing updates:

- Fixed the inconsistency with Raphael’s employment during ch2, now Vincent and his comments on the matter align.

- Additionally, Eric has a bit more to say about it during that scene.

- Vincent also has a bit more to say about it during his scene in ch1.

- Made some changes during Theodore's scene and Vincent's scene during ch1 to put a bit more emphasis on how important GBL is in universe, as I kind of realise how I didn't really make that clear until ch2.

- During Vincent's scene during chapter 1, Vincent has a bit more to say regarding Zania's decisions about who she employs, this was done to lead better into the reveal that She and Morrison focus their time on researching powers and representatives.

- During the meeting with Morrison, Eric now has an internal monologue about how he is 2nd in command and not Vincent, this was a detail I forgot to add and was done in preparation for b3.

- During the scene with Morten and Raphael in ch2, I made it so my intent with the ‘1 day resignation notice’ comment was more clear.

Fixes:

- Thanks to Elion33, more typos were fixed, including the embarrassing one on the first fucking line of the vn.

- Fixed the wrong pronouns being used in one instance.

Misc:

- Made the textbox a bit more transparent.

- Removed all unused music  from the files, reducing the file size by ~200MB.
