My Big Sister
Save Files Fixed!
I apologize about the save files going crazy after the last update. But, I have now fixed it! What I've done is made a way to return to any chapter in the game and it will save over your old corrupted save file.
I added a possword system for debugging purpose and cheats, so to skip to any chapter between 1-10 at the main menu press 'P' then type with no spaces or caps "chapter10". replace10 with any number between it and 1 to select a different chapter.
If anyone encounters any more bugs, please let me know in the bugs/grammar thread!
[CHAPTER UPDATE] Chapter 10 The Final Chapter!
I would like to announce that the Final Chapter to My Big Sister is here! I have also added some new achievements and a few secrets. So, what happens after this? Well, now comes the detailing, bug and grammar checking (please report if you find any in the bug/grammar thread), any extra music, translations, new save system and anything else I can think of. Also, I may add another ending to the game before full release depending on the feedback I recieve.
Please as always, leave you feedback and comments here for Chapter 10!
Thanks again for all your help!
EDIT: Fixed chapter 9 to chapter 10 bug!
Update on Final Chapter!
Unfortunately the game/story is coming to an end :'(. But! Don't worry! I'll be starting on a new story game, once My Big Sister is done and dusted!
Things will start to speed up this year, as I am giving full time game developing one last go.

I already have a few votes, and I will leave this survey open until My Big Sisters release. I have also added a new option to the survey list of a previous game I used in competition.

Quick Update
Fixed end of chapter error.
Chapter 8 Progress!
I just want to announce that chapter 8 is near completion! All that is left to do is bug checking, grammar/spelling fixing and adding the music!
I also want to ask the community what would be a good length time for a game like this?(How long should the gameplay be). I only want to ask this because the story is creeping closer to it's end.
Here's a sneak teaser of what's in store for chapter 8!
Development Update (Sorry for the delay)
I am going through the feedback from everyone including the reviews to try and improve the gameplay experience.
Unfortunately this week I hat a major wall with my laptop finally dying on me and I have to purchase a new one. But don't fret! I will try and get a replacement in the next few days!
Also as a quick side note, I will be implementing a full save system upon official release which you will be able to save at anytime during the game (except cutscenes). The reason for the auto save function is purely to not corrupt player's save files if the game is updated.
I would also like anyone's opinion of the game so far if you wish to share it here :)
Sneak a peek at the next chapter?
I just want to inform everyone that I am still working on the game and would like to apologize for being so quiet. Me and my family have been recently moving into our new home and I haven't had much time to work on My Big Sister. Now that we're 80% moved in I'm back at it again! Here is a sneak preview of what I am currently working on, enjoy!
