8/24 Update
Traveling between areas has been updated to common events, just need to update the Son-Chu car itself and that'll be complete. The cutoff point for alpha 2 has also been completed, with the credits scene updated for it. I've taken a detour to work on the game's easter egg area, expect some fun surprises there!
Text boxes for NPCs without portraits have gotten a makeover, they have a small "?" in the corner now to keep text flow consistent with NPCs that do have them.
