A little check-in
The Northern Passage » Devlog
Hello everyone!
This is just a miscellaneous update, with a few bug fixes as well as tweaking the image sources in game. I also wanted to touch base since I haven't posted here since last January 😱 and clarify that this game is still being worked on, and I plan to get a content update out this year. I know it's been a while, and I appreciate all of your patience and support in the meantime!
Hope you all are having a lovely start to the new year!

Im so excited 😍😍😍, hope u doin well author
The story has me in such a grip and that says something. I love the setting and the characters, as well as our MC. Really looking forward to the next update ^-^
Love your story a lot 🥰
Thank you for the check-in. First of all, I wanted to say that I've followed this IF since it was on Dashingdon and in Choicescript and it's one of the IFs here on Itch that I follow with the greatest interest. However, while making my(so far) last playthrough last year I discovered what seemed to be an bug. I did try to contact you at the recommended email adress but only received an error message. So I wonder if there are any other ways you can be contacted about possible bugs? It may be that this bug is among the ones fixed now, but it would be good to be able to contact you to find out of this is the case, and in the case of other bugs showing up in new updates, it would be good for me and others to have a surefire way to contact you about that.
You can always post the bug here in the comments, most people do that for games on itch.io. You can even take screenshots of the issue & upload them with your comment if you need to, too.
hi! i'm not sure why, but it seems like that email was deactivated by yahoo (i assume from lack of use), but i've since reactivated it! you should be able to send in bug reports there again. otherwise you absolutely can comment any bugs you find here or on any other previous devlogs if you'd like, since i don't have comments turned on on the actual game page.
Sorry for the late reply. Unforeseen events in the last couple of weeks took up a lot of my attention, so that it was hard to find the time to bring you my bug report. However I tried to email it to you a couple of days ago, but got the same error message that I got the first time around. So I'll just give you my bug report here. If this is something you have fixed since I discovered, feel free to ignore it, but if not, I hope it can help you to pinpoint and fix the problem
The bug, at least I assume it is a bug is this: When I last made a playthrough, somewhere in the second half of last year, my MC was given a choice who to talk with/visit late evening/at night near the end of the published parts. Since I'd already explored the options of visiting the pirate captain, I wanted my MC to visit Lea this time around. But when choosing that option I was quickly redirected to choosing between whether to visit the pirate captain or not, without ever getting the chance to visiting Lea. Since I wanted my MC to visit Lea this time around and had already explored the option of visiting the pirate captain, this was quite frustrating. I don't think it had anything to do with not having a good enough relationship with Lea either, since my MC seemed to have a quite good relationship with Lea at that point and also had chosen plenty of options that were supposed to help starting a romance, and also had a kind of romantic and intimate moment with Leas while exploring the city. So if this could be fixed, I would really appreciate it and if it's already fixed, it would be really nice to know.
Anyway, I wish you all the best on your further work with this IF, I enjoy the story so far, except for the likely bug, and look forward to seeing how the story develops.
no worries! and i'm sorry the email still isn't working for you :(
as for the bug, this isn't a bug! there's no option to go visit Lea in the tavern, only the earlier conversation with them. once they leave the hunter's room for the night you don't see them again until morning, in the next chapter. Merry is the only option to visit regardless of relationship or anything like that.
