Taking place on the unluckiest day of the year, the protagonist and his/her friends get an invite to "The Beach". Mistaking this for a private beach party, they are sorely disappointed when instead of everyone being able to have fun, they have to instead search for three parts of a missing sword.

A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

This should be the last update for the OVN series of my visual novels, unless anything serious is found. Whilst I have said it before, there are no other upgrades needed now - they now all look like the later episodes.
Updated to bring this into alignment with all other episodes
Unfortunately, the last update disabled the skipping function after the first playthrough. This has now been reinstated.
There is going to be an update to bring this OVN's logo and credit sequence into align with OVN 3. In addition, a couple of sound effects are going to be replaced. Finally, there is going to be one new achievement.
This will certainly be the final update, and includes : Slightly updated story One new background and some additional graphics Developer notes
This update now has : One tune has been changed to something more appropriate Extra dialogue and an epilogue has been added The mountaineering section now has user-selectable difficulty (when you've completed the game at least once) A few new sound effects added Two gender-specific problems fixed Hopefully, though, this will fix the achievements being unlocked problem
In order to try and solve (finally) the achievement problem of multiple achievements being unlocked for no reason, I've modified the achievement names both in my game and on Steam. THIS MEANS THAT ALL PREVIOUS ACHIEVEMENTS (BOTH INTERNAL AND STEAM RELATED) ARE NOW LOST. In order to claim these achievements again, just play the game... The update does add various things, all of which will be detailed when it's released
Grab the Welcome To... Chichester series of visual novels before the Steam Sale ends !
... or if you don't want to, there are also others in the series !
A very small update where the side image for Grendel wasn't appearing after the forest section
A small update to fix a problem with the "Totally Done" achievement (removed need to keep persistent variables for these, and just check to see if each of the three achievements have been done).
Barring any bugs, this will be the last update for this visual novel. It has been updated with the following : Protagonist graphics have now been added Updated gender selection screen Fixed a few slight continuity errors Added a small sound effect and a few small missing animations Re-rendered end credits sequence
Would anyone be interested in having extra reading support added ?
Got rid of a fair number of superfluous words (thanks to Foxxy for the idea)
