New version has game-killing bug; a dating sim with sci-fi, July 12, 2017

This game has a large, expansive world where you wander around and meet various women while a large story plays in the background about people with psycho-kinetic powers being chased by a shady organization.

There are 8 girls that you meet, and you can build up romance with any of them. If you build a romance high enough, you get a special ending.

I was unable to complete the game, as you have to select options a, b, c, or d to travel to different places, and this version of the game in Gargoyle understands 'c' as 'close', rendering me unable to select this option.

As for the sexism, here's the description of the first female lead. I'll let you decide what to think:
"The girl is clothed in a silky blue dress. Long vibrant hair cascades over her shoulders and
down her back. Her countenance seems to reflect all feminine virtue, inclusive of kindness,
empathy, and consciousness of time and place. Her deportment is modest, and there is
propriety in the way she patiently sits waiting for someone, a gallant knight to ride up and
sweep her off her feet perhaps. Certainly that cannot be the case, nor do you look anything like
a knight, but since when was there ever harm in entertaining a fanciful thought?"

Edit: After downloading Adrift 4.0, and replaying, the game was much better, with graphics and sound and no game-closing bugs.

The bug where you can't choose C can be worked around: Instead of typing just "c" you must type "c." (c followed by a period). This bug is present in all multi-interpreters that uses the Scare terp.

... that writing is utterly cringeworthy.

I played this in college and was a lot more into silly anime to be offended or notice it, but that was around 2004ish and yea. Reading it now is just... wow.

I downloaded the most recent version about 4 or 5 months ago.
