I'm a former member of the old VN project. I'm still involved with the team, but I'm not a major contributor anymore, because I've been working on a project of my own:
Introducing Super Filovirus Sisters, an RPG starring Ebola-chan, Lloviu-tan, and Marburg-sama.
This game takes place in a similar world as the other project, but it's a separate continuity.
It takes place after Ebola-chan has wiped out humanity, and deals with the aftermath this has caused in the virus world.
Release date is some time next year. More details later.
Also happy blood moon!

I know it's not likely, but are you planning on updating the game? I noticed it says 'status: in development' on itch.io

Hey, sorry I haven't dropped in in a while.
So the multiplayer feature is probably going to stop working in a few days. I had it on a free Openshift 2 account, but I got an email telling me it's going to be deleted.
To fix it, I'd need to move the server somewhere else, and also update the client so it can find the new server.
Honestly, I don't think the game gets enough traffic for multiplayer to matter much. I've only seen other people online at the same time as me a few times. If there were more asynchronous multiplayer features, like leaving messages on the ground, I think that'd make more sense.
So what do you think? Should I fix multiplayer? Should I expand it?
Also, since I don't visit /ebola/ too often any more, if anyone needs to contact me, or is interested in future games I make, they should visit my Discord server. https://discord.gg/4SJ5dFN

It was supposed to be marked as released. Thanks for pointing that out to me.
I don't plan on updating the story of the game any more, but I might update the game in other ways. I've actually been thinking of making a prequel though.

Maybe I could slip an Ebola-chan easter egg into all of my games so it will be on-topic.

>So what do you think? Should I fix multiplayer? Should I expand it?
Maybe release the server, have multiplayer off by default, and let the user input a server IP if they want to play online.
To be honest though, I never tried it with the multiplayer turned on. What does it even do?

It just lets you see other players walking around as ghosts and chat with them. It doesn't affect gameplay at all.
I mainly added the feature because someone asked for it, and I wanted to see if I could do it.

I don't know about an expansion, but I do have an idea for another Ebola-chan game that I want to make.
In the mean time, I've decided to release a small update for Super Filovirus Sisters that I've been working on, which adds animated enemies to the game.

Just finished working on the Cutievirus Launcher. It will make it a lot easier for me to push out new updates. I'll probably make some updates for filosis while I'm working on my new games. In the mean time I've put out version 1.1.1 which is mostly bugfixes.
It can be downloaded here

When making choices, are the arrows supposed to be so randomly aligned vertically? They don't feel consistent from one choice to the next at all. You would expect the arrow to always be in the middle of the first line of the choice or the middle of the entire choice, but on some choices it is centered properly and on some it is near the bottom of the line even on single-line choices, as if where the arrow appears has been arbitrarily hardcoded in but the coordinates are wrong or something. Example oekaki, can't be assed to open the game right now. Running 1.1.1 on Linux. I feel like it didn't do this in the old versions, but maybe I just wasn't paying attention. Exact scaling is on and makes no difference, draws the arrow in the same spot.

It sounds like the arrow location is decided by priority choice or cancellation choice. Basically the choices in question it naturally falls on would be terminator choices to end a dialogue or loop choices (assuming that's what it's doing).

This might be caused by the new font. In the old font single-line text objects were always 10 pixels tall or something, but in the new font it depends on the content of the text. This might be causing problems. I don't know, I'll have to look into it.

Currently I use Tiled for making maps, but it was originally programmed for an old version of tiled so it can be weird sometimes with the new version.
Announcement
I'm currently working on two things. First is an expansion for Super Filovirus Sisters, called "Madness Hen".
Aside from that, I actually have 3 new Ebola-chan games lined up. This is only feasible because they all use the same engine I'm working on called "Filament Engine". Filament Engine will be focused on creating visual novels and RPGs. The 3 games planned are as follows:
ECSTE: Ebola-chan Saves the Earth.
A visual novel following you (the skull) when you were alive. It's effectively a prequel to filosis.
Cybola: Ebola-chan in Cyber Space.
An RPG where Ebola-chan becomes a computer virus and infects the internet. This will be a small game.
And finally, Super Filovirus World. Where ECSTE is a prequel to filosis, filoworld follows an alternate ending to ECSTE. It will have many playable characters.
Also for my discord server, the new official entry point is http://cutievirus.com/discord/
Now you don't even need a discord account to leave a message. I might revoke the old invite link some time in the future.
Discord is the fastest way to contact me because I don't check this site as often as I used to.

I've just about got all the new areas mapped out. I need to make new enemies for the new areas and new bosses still. I'm planning on having at least two new bosses. I've got an idea I like for the direction I want to take the story in, now I just need to implement it.
I'd probably have it done by now if I wasn't also working on other things, but that's how it is.

Regarding the arrow problem, I was going to ask if you had a copy of the old font when I remembered I still had a copy of 1.0 stored elsewhere. I tried running the game, only to find the problem was already there, so it doesn't appear to be font related after all. Actually, examining the options menu, it appears correctly oriented in the middle of these bars, but I think for menu items without bars it looks awkward, since you would expect the arrow to be pointing at the middle of the text, not the invisible area behind the text. Strangely, the Back option on this menu looks correct, unlike most other no-bar menu items in the game.
