June update
Hey guys,
first things first, things are progressing.
But I don't think we are at the stage to release 0.1.8 just yet. The Patreon page will be resumed at the release.
There seems to be an issue with the pausing on Patreon. Most Patrons can't read posts and got kicked out of the discord channels by Patreons bot. This post is now public. I will check what I do regarding discord.
What have we done in the last 1-2 months.
Story:
A few hundred new renders and dozens of new scenes. Including more scenes with Evelyn, as they are moving in.
Mina's path has been improved. We gave her a new haircut for the dream scene.
Amelia's cooking help has been improved and new scenes have been added.
Pavani Scenes added
Shray Scenes added
Sandbox has some added functionality during scenes.
Sunday paycheck-time is in
Jobs have been added/reworked.
Exploration has been improved.
A new love interest (See preview).
A second workable job.
We added a few soundtracks and a lot of sfx.
Able to go to for a jog.
Able to read.
Technical:
Lags are gone. The game doesn't stutter anymore when loading new places.
Notifications are added top left side.
Several items with functionalities have been added.
SMS System has gotten an overhaul, looks and works a lot better.
Improvement of existing scenes.
Gallery fixed & improved
Gold Tier now has instant travel.
For Platinum there is a music player, where the house and map music can be manually adjusted.
Stats work.
We added a Laptop.
Several small UI improvements.
You can now change names midway, all sms are corrected. (Yes, you are not just called buddy and names can be used there as well).
Usability improvements. As example clicking on the empty space besides the phone will close it.
A lot of bugfixes.
Currently still working at:
Hard(/Dark) difficulty (Will grant you an extra scene)
Intellect giving you tips at what choice leads to where, we already put the technical stuff in, just need to add it to the choices
Stability testing at saving and loading
Exploration
Rendering
Testing, adjusting & bugfixing
Some things that won't be done for 0.1.8:
UI overhaul (A lot of it is still in prototype state - We have a color pattern that we will incorporate.)
All scenes for this chapter (0.2.0 will have some more)
Adjustment prologue (To ease the cut to sandbox)
I think the list is long enough.
So I keep one of the features I like as a surprise.
Cheers
