1.1.02 - Chatroom Added! + DISCORD


Hello!

To begin with, thank you for 4700+ downloads! This is spread between the tech demo and the day zero/main game. It means a lot to me that people are enjoying my game! Some people have done fanart and others have done let's plays! Sorry if I missed out on yours, I am trying to catch them all for the sake of feedback and gratification when people get scared by stuff. >:P

If you've played 1.1.01, this version isn't that different. I just revised some spelling errors, and haven't added substantially to the story yet. This was more of a glow-up and polish of what was already out there! So please be cautious with replaying it, expecting anything too exciting. (And I say this, and I know people are gonna assume I'm lying, BUT I'M JUST TRYING TO HELP!!!)

Discord! I have one! Feel free to join it!

Featured in this update:

  • A splashscreen added, with logo!
  • New menu implemented + new preferences menu. Still needs some work, but it's most of the way there!
  • Replaced some sprites, though nothing major.
  • Implemented a chatroom function, with a choice of four avatars (More to be added + possibility to customize your name!) This is honestly very exciting, and expect to see more of it in future!
  • Changed one background, though as far as my priorities go, character art is going to come before backgrounds most likely! Budgeting be like that.
  • Nothing too spooky, honestly, it's really just GUI stuff and spelling errors :')

Features I am looking into:

  • Persistent files states, and having files deleted affect gameplay. This is currently NOT a feature! I feel awful when I see people trying to mess with files in that way, and unfortunately, it is not currently something that can be done. I'll let you know in some way if it IS a potential.
  • Developing two endings per character, with the potential for three. (I may also do a straight up vanilla, happy fun dating sim with zero weirdness, but......... Not this Bad Boy.)
  • Persistent playthrus affecting your experience of the story; more is revealed the more you play it.

And a final thank you to those who've played my game and given me encouragement and feedback! Criticism is also highly valued! I want to emphasize that I am still developing this game, so it may shift and I hope people won't be too bummed that it isn't exactly what they thought it would be. But I'm pretty confident with the direction I intend to take it! 

Unless a glaring issue arises and NEEDS to be fixed, I'm going to aim to have the next update out by the 1st of April, aka a week from now. Also, Yumi has a Twitter now because she wanted one.
