3 is it possible Gabby might survive in a future update like Mandy's scenario, or does she just get eaten by the brunette like Anita with Sam? Not that I really expect either Gabby or Mandy to survive the Monday Massacre anyway.
4 I'm surprised Gabby isn't easier prey if she had to be saved the first time it took me about 12 attempts to keep her down the first time due to bad rng
I considered adding the option to back out before actually doing the deed, but decided that the pred scene was telegraphed clearly enough that it would be odd for anyone to follow her without wanting that outcome. You make a good point though that, especially since it's possible to have a prior connection to her, it does feel a bit restrictive compared to other scenes, so I may revisit that at some point. Gabby survives and has a small role to play on Monday if you don't eat her. As for her difficulty, your ability to keep her down is affected by the choice you make during the scene
Although I only have myself to blame for people thinking that since I used it earlier in the thread to point out that Mandy was unlikely to return, I feel like I should mention that a character not having their relationship tracked doesn't
necessarily mean they're just there to be fodder. It just means they won't have much in the way of in-depth interactions. For example, Betty is planned to be a recurring character.

Not particularly no, though I do love Lampton's teacher preds. Some of them are inspired by other artists though

Noted. She certainly thinks about it if you fail your initial attempt!

Glad you're enjoying it!

Right now in order to see the extra dialogue and nab myself three meals see it I'd have to, totally hypothetically
, adding a passage that creates a loop to advance digestion 1 extra stage.
While it wasn't intentional, as evidenced by the fact that there's a small amount of alt dialogue for it if you cheat to eat both, I'm actually happy with the fact that getting both Anita and Mandy in one run is impossible. Only like 2 hours have passed after eating Anita when you encounter Mandy, digestion may be accelerated for gameplay purposes but being able to be 100% done with Anita already in that time would be ridiculous.
Good to see the save system is being well received! It also seems like there is at least a little interest in a patreon, and ScarKnight makes a good point, so I'll start looking more seriously into getting one set up. What sort of things would you guys want to see in terms of supporter benefits?
As an added bonus since I did the rest of the freshmen, here's the designs for the two stragglers, aka "Only Technically in Day 1 Gang":
(So that people aren't going crazy thinking they missed something: Claire is named once and makes a very brief cameo in the new scene, Cassidy is never seen or named but she talks during one of the cookout scenes)
