So, it's been brought to my attention that the version number could potentially confuse people. When I dropped the demo, I erroneously labeled it as version "0.0.1a", and this new updated version was set to "0.0.1" to give proper versioning a starting point. That said, it will make one last jump on the next major release, to version 0.2. If you care to know why, please continue reading :)

So, I've had the story in my head for quite some time, but translating that over into the VN space took some re-organizing in my head. Initially, I had planned to do a version update at the end of each game-time day of the characters' story, so it was going to be as follows:

• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 1 (complete) - Version 0.0.2
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 2 (halfway point) - Version 0.0.3
• Kim Cara/Sandra - Day 2 (complete) - Version 0.0.4
• etc. etc., 

This was going to go to the end of Day 5 of Kim's story, which would've been version 0.1. Then I intended to move on to the next set of characters, and their story. There are 5 stories (with 5 different sets of characters) that are getting told. Each story branch will *introduce* the new characters, but the characters from the previous branch will continue along with them through the story (meaning that Kim, Cara and Sandra will be present throughout, but the rest will not appear until their designated point in the story ... and each of theses "sub-plots" would've ended up in the same format as listed above, until we got to version 0.5. At that point, all the characters have reached a common convergence point, and the story moves forward with all of them. Ending in version 1.0.

This has changed. Currently, the plan is to release the 5 stories introducing the characters, as 5 separate titles. The same outline mentioned above still applies, where Kim, Cara and Sandra will be present throughout the story, picking up the other characters as they go. Now, however, instead of a single massive title, it will be divided into 6 separate titles, counting them as "sequels", if you will.

And so the new versioning plan (that will go live on the next release) looks something like this:

• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 1 (complete) - Version 0.2
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 2 (halfway point) - Version 0.3
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 2 (complete) - Version 0.4
  
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 3 (halfway point) - Version 0.5
  
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 3 (complete) - Version 0.6
  
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 4 (halfway point) - Version 0.7
  
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 4 (complete) - Version 0.8
  
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 5 (halfway point) - Version 0.9
  
• Kim/Cara/Sandra - Day 5 (complete) - Version 1.0
  

And from there we will continue with the next entry as a separate game. If there are any questions or concerns about this, please feel free to leave a comment. Or stop by the Discord Channel to share your thoughts!

Thanks to everyone who brought this to my attention :)
