AlwaysFan - Version 1.0

New content:
- Week 7 is now available!
- The epilogue is now available!
- 4998+ new images (Does not include older updated renders, variant images and some AI-generated images)
- 204 new animations (Does not include older updated animations)
- 38545+ lines of code
- New musics
- New sound effects

Old content:
- Most of the renders until day 14 have been updated to reflect the visuals from the latest episodes.
- All laggy/glitchy animations that were not previously updated have been re-encoded and updated.
- Improvements to some texts during the first two weeks of the game.
- D11: Added a new dialogue choice and a new scene allowing you to start a relationship with Jenna without rejecting Lea if Emilie isn't your girlfriend (To do this, build up your relationship with Jenna, agree to help Lea convince Jenna to do a photoshoot with her and don't kiss Jenna).
- D31: The choice to allow Iris to go to the tower is now locked if you have a relationship with her and you don't follow the sharing route.
- D35: Resynchronisation of the karaoke, which had a major sound/text mismatch since the last patch.
- D37: Fixed a bug that caused Cassandra to be still present in your apartment when you returned from Abby's when she had left before you.
- D38: Added a button on Marcus's desktop screen to skip the clue search if you found them all during one of your other games. (Note that this will give you all the evidence, but that you may want to explore other fates by completing this with less evidence).
- D41: Emilie is now sensible and will no longer order a cocktail at the nightclub if she's pregnant.
- D42: Rework of Lea's blowjob animation. MC no longer merges with the bathtub and the camera angles have been adjusted.

New achievements screen:
- This can be accessed from the main menu and the game menu.
- It's retroactive, so all you have to do is load a savegame where you've already completed some of them for them to unlock.
- Note that the first load may take a little longer than usual when synchronising your achievements.

Other user interface updates:
- Added French translation of the first two weeks of the game
- Reorganisation of the main girls and side characters in the relationships screen.
- Updated the gallery with the new h-scenes of the episode (Note that some non-animated scenes are not present).
- The gallery unlocker is now more clearly accessible via the top-left button (renamed "gallery option" instead of "naming option"). Note that it requires you to complete the game at least once to use it.
- Visual rework of the AlwaysFan site (accessible from the game menu) with the possibility to subscribe to trending girls whose list evolves over time. This has no impact on the story, it is only to give more "realism" to the site (and add some lewd images...).
- Added a file explorer so you can review photos you've taken or received that aren't published on AlwaysFan (This can be accessed via the button at the bottom of the AlwaysFan site, which will flash slightly if you have unlocked a new image).
- Added some dialogue between Emilie and the MC when choosing the girl's name when you use the names of other main girls in the story.
- Emilie will no longer accept the names ‘Robert’ and ‘Marcus’ for a son (this change is not effective on saves from previous versions).
- Removed all the white flashing screens during photo shoots and h-scenes.
- A warning message about photosensitivity and the minimum age for playing is displayed when the game is launched for the first time. Emilie will no longer mention this when you start a new game. A warning recommending the use of headphones and a language selection screen have also been added.
- Emilie will now warn you during the intro that another important character is named Marcus/Robert/Jason/Nicolas if you choose one of these names.

Android version:
Unfortunately I won't be able to compile a .apk file of this version, as the limit imposed by Google is 2GB maximum for these files, whereas the compressed version is 2.4GB. However, you will be able to play the game on an Android device thanks to the JoiPlay emulator (downloadable from their website), using either the PC version or the compressed version. I would like to apologise to Android users for this inconvenience, which is beyond my control.

Miscellaneous:
- The summer menu background has been replaced by an animated version.
- Other minor text corrections.

Developer's note:

This “1.0” version concludes the AlwaysFan story, so there will be no more new content after that. However, there could still be one or more minor updates containing bug fixes if any, as well as the game's French translation (Don't expect it for several months), but these small updates will not add content to the story. If you have any bugs to report, please do so via my discord. Similarly, if you're working on a translation that you'd like to make official, you can also contact me on this same discord (you'll appear in the game credits, of course).

I would like to take this opportunity to thank once again all those who have supported this project. AlwaysFan was basically a trial run for me to learn how to use all the tools needed to create a Renpy game, and the game was much more successful than I imagined. I've even lengthened the game's lifespan a little, because in my original plans, the game was supposed to stop after the kidnapping case had been solved. I've learned a lot in the process, including a few mistakes I won't be making again in future projects. It's hard for me to say goodbye to Emilie and the other characters whose stories I've been writing for almost 3 years (writing having started at the end of November 2021), but I'm keen to start a new game on a sound footing, with better rendering, simplified code, and lots of new characters to introduce you to. This project will be very different from AlwaysFan, but I'll tell you about it shortly after the public release of this version 1.0.
