For those that feel that the game is still too difficult on the easier setting, the easier difficulty now adapts to how well you're doing. If you are totally not Star Captain material, the aliens will pull their punches. This adaptive difficulty feature is intentionally left out of the harder original difficulty.
For those that have been wanting less focus on combat, we've added the "Lovestruck" mode which essentially reduces the amount of combat per playthrough. Your survivors can get sick now, just from being in combat, and gradually lose health, stamina, and morale. This may seem like the game is only much harder due to your crew falling to illness, but they are also falling hard for you as well. You need less BASICS points and affection points to finish dates. It may seem like it, but the game isn't harder with this mode on, it's just faster. You can combine the Lovestruck mode with either difficulty mode.
- The following stories are now free to play:
- Veronica
- Carmen
- Added a new feature to easier difficulty:
- Added in the difficulty adapter system.
- This system is designed so that difficulty is reduced depending on ammunition supplies AND health status of all crew members.
- Added Lovestruck Mode:
- -10 to all affection requirements, BASICS tests and BASICS requirements.
- Night Guards have a chance to get sick, losing HP, MP and SP each day. Resting survivors lose less HP, MP and SP.
- To cure sick survivors, have them resting. Has a chance to recover while resting, and each failed attempt will increase the chance to cure the sickness.
- Lovestruck Mode now helps unlock Zoe's Normal Ending.
- Minor bug fixes:
- Fixed a bug where Stella's Affection Requirements weren't properly showing.
- Fixed some grammar for Max Carey 3.

ReplyDeleteLove struck mode on easy worked awesome for me till day 8. Dates are still working fine, but the next battle won't load no matter what. using google chrome.
ReplyDeleteSame is happening to me as well.
DeleteI can probably guess the answer, but if we already have Veronica's and/or Carmen's stories unlocked, do we get a refund on the tokens used for them?
ReplyDeleteHehe, nope. Sorry.
DeleteAh well, c'est la vie.
DeleteTo add though, I'm having the same lack of loading as the other people. I've tried it on Chrome and Explorer (ack). After the date on Day 8, the battle just refuses to load. It's just one giant white screen.
Could you tell me what date you chosen on day 8 before the battle begins? I'll look into it.
DeleteOn Chrome it was Veronica's first date at the Clinic.
DeleteOn Explorer it was Carmen's... 3rd or 4th one, the 'consciousness test' one.
Also, what night guards did u pick?
DeleteCan't recall exactly, but for Veronica, it was most likely Carmen, Isabel, Beatrice, and Larissa.
DeleteFor Carmen it was probably Beatrice, Larissa, Terra, and Zoe (Isabel was sick, I remember that).
I couldn't locate the exact problem. But I fixed up the game a bit. Maybe try again and hope that the problem doesn't occur again.
ReplyDeleteI'm still getting a white screen whenever I try to advance to the nigh combat. I've used various different guards, and done it with and without dates, nothing seems to work. Just white, every time.
DeleteId play but for some reason i just get white screen after carmen story 2 going into night guard. Everything worked fine before the pactch though even finished stellas story :/
DeleteNow the problem seems to be completely random. I've had it happen anywhere from day 11 to day 4. The girls, dates, and guards don't seem to be a factor. Much as I hate to say it, the game isn't playable right now. Maybe pull it back for a few days and give the code a thorough examination?
DeleteHad an incredibly peculiar bug occur while playing. I have no idea how it happened or when, so I'll try to replicate it, but basically I was able to give people gifts without ACTUALLY using any of them.
ReplyDeleteDunno if that may be something to look into.
Are fuck voices coming before or after battle voices?
ReplyDeleteFor me the game keeps freezing after battle 1, when you tell the luitenant to carry on. After that it freezes
ReplyDeleteOther dialogue options result in a freezing screen as well. I tried Internet Explorer and Firefox, no difference.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else had this problem yet?
For me the game freezes(white sceen) at the day 9 whatever i do. It doesnt matter what date i choose/none or in what location i am. If i choose a date the game will freeze after it,if i don't choose any the game will freeze right after i sign the assignments.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like the previous problem (which is the blank screen on liftoff) has taken a different form.
ReplyDeleteAnyone affected by this before the patch will have to clear their browser cache to attempt to fix the problem. Save files are wiped in the process, but you can prevent that from happening before clearing your cache by going here:

If that doesn't help, I'm not sure how to fix it. Honestly, I haven't encountered that bug on my end.
Completely wiped my cahes/cookies/history etc from my browsers and started a new game (Easy + Love Sickness mode). I didn't date a single girl and played until day 8. White screen of death every time from then on.
DeleteSame here, WSOD at around day 9
Deletecan I recup older save or i need to restart?
ReplyDeleteFor me every time the White Screen of Death happens on lovestruck, it's because Hudson got sick.
ReplyDeleteTwo quick questions:
ReplyDelete1) Is there a way to get BASIC points other than the once a day gain?
2) I'm just curious to what the difficulty levels for the dates are in proper order. I mean I'm guessing Aching Dreamer is the highest with Star Captain being close, but things get muddy for the other difficulties.
Junglecurr1 please tell me you're still trying to resolve the wsod :(
ReplyDeletesame problem here, white screen after a week or so
ReplyDeleteWhite screen appearing. On Lovestruck Mode and normal play (all on easy). Day appears random (sometimes 9, 12 or 14) and on various locations.
ReplyDeleteBtw, anyone have some tips on the dating. Got stuck on some of the stories... A walkthrough would be helpful.
Finally get a difficulty mode I can handle and some time to play this game, and behold the white screen of death. Smh this has been such a pain in the ass so far.
ReplyDeleteI finally found out why/when the game crashes for me. For some reason I could still open the log and hide the dialogue, but nothing else worked (no music, no text, not able to click on any thing else).
ReplyDeleteBut I realized from the log that the game crashes when you talk to Isabella about wearing a bikini (somewhere after the first battle).
White screen for me too :(
ReplyDeletehey, only recently bought the complete story for this game, was working really well (bloody awesome game btw!) but now no matter what I do after a few dates with olga (up to date 5) whenever I try to go onto the 6th date it will load will get through half of the date until I need to make a decision within that story and then it just WSOD every single time, I have tried doing other dates after this instead or not dating all together and it does the same, have cleared cache a few times exactly the same thing occurs and now apparently on any date at some point all on different days :( any insight would be fantastic
ReplyDeleteOh good. The silent treatment again.
ReplyDeleterip wsod, maybe they didnt want us to play the easy mode lol
ReplyDeleterip wsod, maybe they didnt want us to play the easy mode lol
ReplyDeleteit happens on normal mode too even without lovestruck :D and always happens when you get to date 5 with any girl ^^
ReplyDeleteHey Um I'm playing this on newgrounds,I've bypassed the white screen bug through some trial and error and completed veronica's story(yay :D) but none of her H scenes are loading could you please do something about them? ^_^
ReplyDeletehow did you manage to bypass it?
ReplyDeleteI don't exactly remember but clearing cache,experimenting different options(changing guard duties,dates,using items) before finishing the day.
ReplyDeleteGood luck.
so turns out carmens h scene is buggy and doesnt finish loading :/
ReplyDeletewill try more variation then, and tried the cache thing it never works for me lol, im obviously just not allowd to play it :-p
ReplyDeleteWe apologize for the inconvenience. The issue that people seem to be having might be browser related, meaning that we cannot do much about it. Even the H scenes loading from the servers seem to be experience problems by some.
ReplyDeleteI'm now trying to upload the game with flash player version 16.0 (Used to be 11.7) and see if it helps.
It would help if we knew what browser you run as well as which version..
DeleteIn what sense do you mean browser related? Because I've had the same issue on Internet Explorer (or Edge as it is called now) and Firefox.
ReplyDeleteI have also tried it on different browsers does not seem to help though I keep trying I love the game too much to stop lol just wanna complete a story for once though :p
ReplyDeleteI played through to day 14 twice, with no bugs encountered on Chrome.
ReplyDeleteits not the day that matters, gotten to day 20 but before but when you hit date 5 or more it just wsod ^^ also tried it through Kimochi does the same
ReplyDelete...mmhmm, I will try that, ty paul.
DeleteWell I just beat Olga's...
DeleteAye Ive just been playin all morning it is now working on chrome finally lol :)
DeleteGlad that its finally working for you,
DeleteAre the H-scenes loading tho? :P
yea they are loading fine too :D
ReplyDelete...lol so I guess updating the game's flash version just miraculously fixed our loading problem? I'll wait a few comments.
DeleteHow do I unlock the scene with carmen and Olga is it after completing carmen story I can can get the scene when I'm dating Olga
Deletewsod at day 19 for me.
ReplyDeleteAlso wanted to ask- how many endings is for each heroine?
ReplyDeleteThere are two secret cutscenes atm, more are planned.
ReplyDeleteIf you're getting wsods still, clearing out your internet cache should help. Unfortunately I can't test if this is true, because I've never gotten the bug, and on top of that, your save file would be erased.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I got a wsod doing stellas first date, I got till the 7th date with terra. Not sure what else I can do.
ReplyDeleteEven without doing any dates and just going straight into a battle I still get wsod. Day 8. Task delegation doesnt really seem to matter either.
ReplyDeleteyea i bought the game works fine up until day eight when i try and go on my first date dialogue works up until the end the i get the WSOD i have tried doing everything above to fix it but still nothing pretty bummed because i have been looking forward to playing the game
ReplyDeleteSo far, my observations from the comments post game version upgrade is that Chrome seems to be working fine (Unless ppl are getting the WSOD on that browser too).
ReplyDeleteTry running it on Chrome if u can.
Played on Chrome; experienced WOOD multiple times.
ReplyDeleteive tried chrome and it still doesnt work :/ why not just pull the game for a couple of days and completly check the game because i really wanna play with the easier difficulty but this wsod is just killing me :((
ReplyDeleteFinally fixed the problem. The web version and kimochi version has been updated. NG version will be updated soon.
ReplyDeleteyay thankyou its working fine on kimochi and chrome again just finished Elaines story :-)
ReplyDeleteThere will be cheat codes like previous games?
ReplyDeleteAre there only two scenes for all the girls?
ReplyDelete
