Overview:
By Another Name is an adult visual novel that answers the question "What if I was an incoming college freshman, preparing to attend an elite private school on a soccer scholarship, when my dad unexpectedly dies right before the school year begins, leaving behind a mystery for me to solve that could force me to question the legacy of the man I was raised by?"

Version v0.031 Update
Changelog:
- Fixed an image during Mariah's fourth event that caused playing as a woman to include an image of the non-binary character model by mistake
- Added android and desktop icons (Charlie in front of some cherry blossoms, it's super cute)
- Updated the v0.04 preview image at the end of the last event of this version to reflect changes made to plans for v0.04 (what was originally going to be two updates, v0.04 and v0.05, is now going to be 3 updates, since I added in some new events to the planned timeline, so the preview needed updating to reflect that)

"Wow, this sounds amazing! You must have put a lot of time and effort into this!" I hear you saying. "What if I want to support you somehow?"
First of all, thank you. That's super cool of you to say, and might I add that you have fantastic taste.
If you want to support me, consider leaving a review of the game so others know what to expect! Maybe even tell your friends about By Another Name - the best marketing is always going to be word of mouth.
