update post

Hey guys, update post for everyone - here's what we're up to.

First off there's a few typos and a bug or two that slipped through on 0.1, and we'll have that fixed up on the 0.2 client. Additionally, I've redone the short prologue - it works well if you've played KoD, but if you haven't then you don't know Sabia or Amelia already, and the impact is lessened. We've included a short expo dump like at the start of KoD to address that, and changed the structure so it's Amelia musing to herself and setting up what she wants.

The main idea is to just make it more accessible for new players - we haven't yet posted it on twitter or anything, because of that. Once we do, we'll be able to post it on more public places.

With that out of the way, we're working primarily on 0.2. The KoD filler patch is still in the background of our minds, and still being worked on slowly, but the main focus is 0.2 and the secondary the filler.

So here's where we're at with that -

We're working on the framework for the brothel sim portion of the game. Like we've mentioned a few times it won't be a massive component of the game - it's still going to be primarily a choices-matter and story-driven project. But that being said, our current status for it is that it'll be the way for Amelia to earn lundils, and we'll probably have 2 variables linked to it, which can be improved by Amelia doing things, some choices, and improving the brothel overall, the better it is the more lundils you'll be able to get. It'll also be a way to include some short scenes in later patches too.

For the story, we've got two main quests for 0.2. As foreshadowed in the previous patch, we'll have a new diplomat arriving in Avarton that's going to cause some issues for Amelia. The first quest will be a focus on learning as much information about the diplomat's arrival and purpose Amelia can manage.

The second quest will introduce a few new characters and one of the gangs in the slums. They'll be upset with Amelia for a reason, and Amelia's gonna have to deal with that and resolve the tense situation. Introduced in this will be a futa char - not everyone's cup of tea, so if it's not don't worry you can bypass the scene and in future ally with another character of her. We don't have any plans to include any additional futa chars at the moment.

The detailed outlines for both quests are done, and the first quest is about half written.

We've got a few of the sprites down, you can see a finished and a WiP in this post of them!

Thanks
