Major changes
A lot of internal reworks have been done to solve the crashing problems. As such, 0.9.1 and earlier saves will not be loaded by the new version. The persistent file where gallery unlocks are stored is still working as intended.

To make up for the loss of save files, a new Chapter Start feature has been added, which allows the player to start at the beginning of each major chapter of the game. You can choose what choices have been done before, and the new path is directly available. So unlike the previous Veteran Start, you can start straight from the newly-added chapter.

Added

• Sayuri’s route
  • 2 branches depending on Asami’s relationship
  • 23 animation variants (including 3 transitions)
  • 6 CGs
  • 20 CG variants
  • 6 new locations
  • 8 character sprites in various backgrounds
• A new BGM piece
• Some raining in exterior locations (for the moment it only happens during the storyline)
  • Can be turned down or off if it makes the device slower, by reducing particles in the preferences
• Fonts for Cyrillic, Greek and CJK writing systems, so translations can work when .po files are placed in the right folder
  • Windows: %appdata%\Godot\app_userdata\Goodbye Eternity\translations\
  • Linux: ~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/Goodbye Eternity/translations/
  • MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/Goodbye Eternity/translations/
  • Android is a mess to access apps data
  • Other fonts will be added if there is enough progress done on the translations.
• Chapter Start:
  • Allows the player to choose where to start their new game, and make the major choices they would have experienced if they had played all the way through
  • Unlike the old Ren’Py Veteran Start, it does not require to have played through the game at least once
• Typing speed preference, to slow down, speed up, or make instant text appearance
• Anti-softlock feature when time advancing is locked
  • Will try to detect and correct cases where the player has advanced beyond the time of day where the storyline happens

Modified

• Some video animations have been changed to Spine animations
• Noriko’s early path choosing has been simplified
• Kimochi’s first encounter event has been changed
• Asami’s early paths have been updated accordingly
• Patrons list has been updated. Thank you all for your support <3

Fixed

• Major crash issues throughout the game (damn, that took a long time and a lot of efforts)
• Softlocks where some choices that looped forced the player into making the same choices
• Some gallery entries could not be unlocked by playing through the game
• Some background display errors
• Some dialogue typos

Known issues

• When using a 1080p display, windowed mode will seem like a full screen, because the window will be at its base 1080p resolution
• When viewing the dialogue history, the time of day will not be reset
• BGMs usage throughout the game is very sparse
• One gallery entry is missing
• Pubes are missing from a few sprites and earlier CGs

v0.9.1
N/A

v0.9
## Major changes

The Engine has changed from Ren’Py to Godot.

The new engine **requires Vulkan support**. For PCs, it means having a GPU that is newer than GTX 700 series, and for smartphones it means having Android 10 or above. More information about recommended specs below in **Modified**.

As such, saves made during 0.8.1 and earlier versions will **not** work.

This engine is not a final version, and has some missing features that will come back at a later point in time. However, saves **will stay compatible between versions**, unless major corruptions occur.

Some crashes are known to occur, especially when changing scenes. This will be solved at a later point in time, so this release could still be released. As such, **make sure you save frequently**. The skip text feature increases the crashing probabilities.

## Added

* Noriko’s femdom route
* 4 animations
* 29 animation variants
* 2 CGs
* 6 CG variants
* 5 new locations
* 10 characters sprites in various backgrounds
* Asami friendship route
* This route does not include any sexual content, but may be required for some later characters…
* Options to reject Sakuya’s advances during her route
* New preferences have been added to the core engine
* New saves UI
* Date, time and playtime are shown
* Ability to rename saves by clicking the renaming button

## Modified

* New game recommended specs:
* Windows/Linux: 64-bit 4-core CPU, 6GB RAM, GTX 960 or above
* MacOS Sierra 10.12 or above
* Android: Android 10, 4GB RAM (3GB has been seen to work, but may crash)

* Some animations have changed to Spine animations. They are smoother, consume less resource to run, and save disk space
* Due to technical limitations for lower-end hardware and phones, animations not using Spine animations have been downgraded to 1080p 30fps.
* We are planning to remake **all** animations to Spine animations, which will improve aspects stated above. We’re sorry for this downgrade, which may last a few versions before every animation has been remade.
* Pubic hair options has been moved from skins (why the hell did Selenyhr think it was a good idea?!) to a preference category “Visuals > Character pubes”
* Noriko’s and Asami’s dialogue sprites don’t currently have their pubes
* Some older CGs for these two characters don’t have pubes either
* Events hints have been changed from the one-per-character mode, to a single main events line
* Time indicator has been added to help with some events that require a specific time frame. This will show red if the current game time does not allow to progress the events line, and bubbles will show the expected times

New game data locations:

* Windows: `%appdata%\Godot\app_userdata\Goodbye Eternity\`
* Linux: `~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/Goodbye Eternity/`
* MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/Goodbye Eternity/`
* Android is a mess to access apps data

## Missing/planned features

* Skins, to modify the characters clothings during events
* They will no longer be required to be externally installed. We’re planning on making them a core part of the game
* Downloading translations from our Weblate server straight into the game
* For now, externally downloaded translations can be applied to the game by dropping Weblate files into the correct folder. Installation instructions will be provided along with files once translations achieve 100% progress.
* Better UI for mobile
* Some parts can be tough to read/touch on smaller devices
* Better accessibility preferences
* GUI scaling
* Text-to-speech implementation
* Colorblindness options
* Visual sound description
* Anti-epilepsy mode
* Dyslexia-friendly fonts

## Known issues, planned to resolve

* Crashing issues, especially with skipping.
* Linux random crashing soon after start when using Wayland.
* 30fps visuals for older animations.
* On low pixel-count screens, windows can exceed the maximum available size. If this happens, press `Windows + Up` to force the window to go to your maximum screen size.

v0.8.1

v0.8.1

– New facial expression names were not translated within the sprite gallery
– Some CGs were not unlocked after finishing Noriko’s maledom storyline
– Hidden stashes were not collectible in the new areas
– Fixed Noriko’s background sprite being displayed during a certain sequence of the new storyline

v0.8.0
This update was intended to be released on Godot, but due to time constraints it was not ready. So it still uses Ren’Py as an engine, and will most likely be the last one using it.
As such, translations are not ready, because we anticipated the engine change.

## Modifications
– Veteran start is now available only after finishing the 0.7 storyline (Sakuya)

## Bugfix

v0.7.9
-Version 0.7.9 fixes all remaining bugs that were reported over the past few weeks and will introduce repeatable scenes with Sakuya and Asami.

# Patch note 0.7.1

**Important information**: due to a bug with the Windows version of the game, the old 0.7 will not trigger the alert message of there being an update for the game.
Please always update the game by extracting it into a new folder. If your OS asks you to overwrite files, you’re doing it wrong.

Huge thanks to the madman Geotrone, who almost single-handedly translated the game into Vietnamese.

## Added
