I was waiting ages for a new update and I see why, converting from a fine engine to babies first shit engine aka unity.
The conversion is not very surprising tbf.
Inn management was the plan from the beginning and I can see that being a disaster in an engine made for visual novels.
This is the kind of stuff only experience can prevent, in this case realizing that what you want to make isn't going to happen in Renpy.
Unity ain't bad, its owners and their reputation however is.

Unity as a game engine can be many things, but it wont magically make a game good. Need to check how this one ended up, and how its going to grow from now.

Runs a bit hot right now so definitely needs a few more optimizations but so far it seems to run smoothly. Lets see what we can make out of this.
Yeah going to hold off on playing this one for a while, honestly not too into the change to unity or the look of the inn building stuff.
Thanks for generating Linux builds dev! I'm very excited to look at the inn-building stuff.
The Linux build has the executable for 0.06c, and the data for 0.06d. Is that on purpose?
Sadly, the Linux build does not work. It opens and prints some info lines about missing a boot.config file. It closes after a while without showing any graphics or even spawning a window.
The exact log is below. The log is the same when run with or without sudo (basically admin perms for Windows users)
This is weird since there is a boot.config file in the data folder.
It seems to me like either the 0.06c executable is looking for the 0.06c data folder and not finding it, or there is something more wrong. Is there some way to enable more debug options so that I can help debug this for you?
EDIT: I tried to run the windows build via proton and it promptly locked up my PC lmao, will try again later. It did reach the main menu though, and the music kept playing.

I will say in a very positive note. All the content was ported over. So it's not a TiTS situation from Flash to Java piecemeal. Everything from .55 is here that I can tell.
However. there is a noticeable bit of...stutter that happens when moving to certain areas (Garden is the big one for me). Honestly I applaud the decision and SPEED with which a full engine move was done...but part of me wonders if scope creep may be hitting a bit."
Also one thing to keep in mind. Unity does not Autosave like Renpy does. So if you fuck up a choice here and there well...

FINALLY! Let's see what we got... First of all, it has been completely remade? I trust we still have all the content we had in Ren'py, right?
Far as I can tell every scene has been reworked to fit here but still is here based on the love book...I'll update after I unlock them all.

Game isn't working. No, seriously. Unity starting screen, black screen, break: program not responding.
I've been waiting for this update this long, and this is what I get? Please tell me I am not the only one.

Mine isn't working, for starters. And I've got way heavier unity games in here that work perfectly. I'd rather have stayed in ren'py, we would have had a lot more content by now. Was the change of engine really neccessary? Like, at all?
I don't think Renpy could have pulled this off. You build rooms and halls in a 3D space, fill them with furniture that has stats, ect.
It's VERY "Sims" like. My concern however is still scope creep. If it is pulled off well? Hot damn. But it has the potential to get too tedious or overshadow other things.
EDIT: The Inn building part has now bugged and taken my camera hostage. It pans to the edge of the grassy lot and I cannot get it free. Nevermind. Hitting Escape did it. Good call on a "forced reset camera." but may want to advise players how to do it.

At least yours work. This is still far from functional.
Edit: after turning my pc off and on and trying 3 more times, it worked. 8 total attempts to get this thing working.
