May 15

• And 24 hours later... Random Test is still running. Yep, that's an infinite loop bug there all right.

• Finished prepping files for next update. Random Test x 50,000 FINALLY passed. Somehow I managed to create two separate infinite loop bugs in this update + fixed two bugs of causes unknown (it shouldn't even be possible to reach that part of the game from the Free Time Hub) + there was a super rare gamebreaking bug during trial run 30,000+ too.

• Alpha Update upcoming tomorrow.

May 16

• Final tests on the game run on the website itself. All my Chapter 2 saves end up corrupting, but the Interlude Adrian + Chapter 1 ones seems to be fine. 🥲

• Alpha updated.

May 17

• Set up the Re-evaluations hub. Finished general attitudes to the fae, changeling, the current quest, and God.
