New Life Project [0.9.75] [Nota Bao]

v0.9.75 (2026-10-01)
New content

All subjects in university now feature homework.
Added more content to the first university sidequestline.
Optimized attendance tracker for the university, which will now correctly and always track attendance no matter where you are.
Skipping class now has consequences: texts from your roommate, gossip, meetings with the Dean, and punishment in front of the class.
Teachers call you out for skipping their class.
Your roommate will confront you if you keep ignoring their texts.
The Dean offers another way to settle things, and you can ask him about Mira.
Missing too many classes in a row gets you a final warning, then expelled. You keep your dorm room and can re-enroll.
The gradebook now shows your attendance for each subject.
Older saves get a letter from the university and a week of grace before attendance counts.
Fixed an error popup when enrolling on weekends.
The Dean’s punishments now escalate.
The Dean may finish a punishment by making you kneel for him.
Asking the Dean for another way to settle things more than once gets rougher each time.
The Dean may check whether you’re wearing a certain item. If you are, he confiscates it and gives you his own. If you aren’t, he does it himself. He expects you to keep his item in. Take it out and he’ll know. Ask the Dean for your own item back. He’ll only trade if you’re wearing his.
Your dorm room now has a bedside table.
The Dean’s item shows up in your inventory and in the mirror.
The Dean now has his own dialogue color.
Each activity with your roommate (chatting, PlayStation, finding them in the yard) raises your relationship once per day, and you’ll see “+ Sophia” or “+ Michael” when it does. Clicking chat ten times in a row no longer maxes them out.
Below a certain relationship level, recess chats with your roommate are now friendly banter, with 8 new lines each.
Michael’s intro (the trip and faceplant) now only happens the first time. After that he greets you one of three ways.
The roommate now keeps a real schedule, so skipping class actually gets you the room to yourself.
Mira now has her own dialogue color (plum).
As you get closer, Sophia and Michael each share four pieces of their backstory: family, secrets, and the things they don’t tell anyone else.
Your roommate now remarks when you skip class, don’t come home at night, wear makeup, or look a little flustered.
If you ignore your roommate for more than a week, the relationship starts to slip.
You can now study together (boosts a class skill), order takeout, have a movie night, get a makeover from Sophia, or work out with Michael.
There’s now a chance of late-night talks when you go to sleep, random texts, and your roommate shows up at the Friday dorm party.
The roommate will do things in your shared dorm room, i.e hangovers, a sock on the door, chore fights, money trouble, a cold, and bad days where they need you. You’ll be presented a choice, and how you react to them dictates your relationship with them.
You’re now able to date your roommate.
Added jealousy if a specific choice has been made with the roommate later on.

Removed a stray endif argument in the public soup kitchen.
Fixed 2 arg nan errors in the casino.
Fixed a broken link in the studio apartment.
Opening a passage from the sidebar, like the phone, backpack or cheat console, on a passage that advances time, will no longer advance time twice. (Once when seeing the passage first, and second when returning to the passage from the phone/backpack/cheatconsole)
You can no longer wear two items at once.
A typo in the PlayStation scene is fixed.
The clique recruit scene was showing “$dormMateName” instead of your roommate’s name.
Roommate dialogue now uses the right name colors.
Attendance now no longer gets marked when walking into a class, instead it marks when deciding what to do in said class.
Fixed spelling error “recieved”.
The school-day banner no longer shows on weekends.
Clique names print properly, with no “[object Object]”.
Your own clique’s link goes to your own clique.
“Get ready for class” runs through <>.

v0.7.4 (2024-11-29)

Added more text to the underground dungeon.
Getting caught trying to escape more than once will now break your mind. This will become a hard end after enough punishments. DO NOT MESS IT UP.
Changed the order on text and image on some pages in the underground dungeon.
Added a playable hard end to the underground dungeon.
Added more content to the underground dungeon.
Added a light bit of color css to some of the text in the underground dungeon.
New additions should work on old saves where the saved game is in the underground dungeon. Go back to your room if things look wrong, and they should fix themselves.
Reformed some image links that were causing missing images.
Unset a lot of variables when they are no longer going to be used, or if they are going to be reset anyways on a later time to minimize save file size.
The reception in the school will no longer show after you’ve obtained the dorm room key as there is no longer use for it.
You can’t do your homework on any other place outside of the school.
Gave the option to go back in the dungeon once you find the exit. This is only if you’re trying to unlock the playable ending in the dungeon. Do not do this if you wish to escape.
Rewrote one(1) scene so far.
Added necessary linebreaks.
You are no longer able to escape the underground dungeon by setting up a date with Lily over the phone.
Disabled the phone when you are in the underground dungeon.
Added more events with unlocked characters to the library, so instead of only Lily being interactive in the library at random, there is now also Otto and Noah at random. If you’re dating either one of them, a different scene will show. You will also have the option to spend the day with them.
Changed Noah’s lookalike name from Keane Rifts to Keany Greaves to closer phonetically resemble Keanu Reeves.
Added another event with unlocked characters to the cafe, so instead of only Otto and Noah being interactive as random events, Lily will now also be interactive. If you’re dating Lily, another scene will show, and you will have some options to either spend the day with her or walk her home, depending on the time of the day.
Fixed the broken corruption increase function on sleep if your corruption is low.
Added flashing events to the streets and the city, at random and will pay depending on what you’re able to flash and choose to flash.
Added ability to shower in the safehouse, so you’re no longer smelly when going on a mission with James and Johnson to rescue Constantin. This ability will persist once the mission is over, unless you’ve had the safehouse burnt down by the facility.
Added option to put on makeup at Otto’s shower.
Fixed various spelling mistakes and typos.
Blackjack will no longer continue in the background after you leave the Casino, which would take up memory for no reason. (play blackjack once to fix this on old saves.)
Changed some variables and structural metrics to better fit new scenarios.
School Reception is now accessible.
Fixed 5 red errors at school.
Replaced 1 of the errors with some new flavor text.
Conditionally removed some linebreaks when there’s no text to display.
