A HUGE Thank You to everyone working

Please report any bugs or errors you find in the thread below.
If you encounter any game crashes, please report them with as much detail as possible (what route or town you were in, what you were doing in game, etc.). It's best if I can try to re-create the crash to discover the issue and resolve it.
If you see your scripts or resources used and you're not credited, please let me know! I downloaded a lot of stuff prepping to make this, not all of it got used, and I was sloppy in making notes of creators, so there's potential for mistakes. But I want to make sure that everyone whose resources I use is properly credited!
And of course, if you have any feedback on the game, please feel free to provide it!
Also, as this game is still in development, and the main story content has not been fully released, any update between now and v.1.0.0 may be incompatible with previous save files. It is also likely that, upon release, v.1.0.0 will require a restart of your save file, as encounters, events and map layouts are subject to change as development continues. I hope you will still download and check out the current build, and come back for later builds, as maps and locations you may play through now could have new content to experience and explore in a later update.
