More UI and gameplay improvements (0.3.7 preview)
🕑 Added 2022-09-27 14:20:32 +0000 UTCHello eveyone,
my last post about improvements for the UI concerning the choices menu was mainly cosmetical in nature. In case you haven't seen it yet, you can check it out here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/ui-improvement-0-72408137
This one is much more than simply cosmetical.
It should help to improve gameplay and reduce the number of times you have to check your phone for information on (open) achievements.
What does it do and how does it work?
- All location action buttons will get a color code (blue/regular, green, yellow)
- Green frame --> all achievements linked to this action have already been seen
- Yellow frame --> there are still unseen achievements for this action, but the girl is not wearing the right clothes to get them
- Blue/regular color frame --> there are one or more ahievements for this action that haven't been seen yet
- If there are still unseen achievements for this particular action, a short summay and the requirements icons are displayed when you hover the mouse over the action button (as seen in screen 1 and 3)
This was and still is a ton of work. Every achievement that is a scene needs to be linked to a location, an action and the necessary clothes options have to be defined as well.
I will add similar options also for other actions like grope, flash, etc. later on.
I hope this will be a big improvement in gameplay, well worth the effort and time spent on it.
Take care,
Darkhound

I won't have to keep detailed notes about gameplay progress? Heavens! The off switch does sound like a very nice feature as well. Hiding that much of your great art/rendering seems a shame.
Darkhound
Just did exactly that :) I have added a switch to the preferences. If you turn it off, you will only see how many scene achievements are not yet completed, but no details.
Darkhound
Thank you. I hope it will do that, yes.
Darkhound
Thank you for the kind comment.
Darkhound
Haha :) Thank you for the comment.
Darkhound
Thank you for the comment. It's a ton of work (still working on it), but I hope it's a big step forward too.
Darkhound
Happy you like it and my pleasure.
Darkhound
It will certainly help for all the scenes and basic actions. For the events and appointments, the guide will still be valuable.
Darkhound
Thanks a lot for the idea :)
Darkhound
Thank you very much for the nice comment :)

Very nice. @Darkhound, maybe can you put the off switch in the "preferences" menu ?
Darkhound
Right now it cannot be turned off. But it is still a work in progress. If I find an easy way to make it optional, I can add that. The main problem will be where to put the switch.

can the descriptions be turned on and off? I only ask, because it'd be nice to see that I haven't seen everything, but not WHAT I'm going to see. It'd allow things like getting to have sex with one of the girls to remain a bit of a surprise.

Sure this will add to the over all enjoyment of the game and getting to see scenes that we might have missed.

Good work has been done! Yes, it looks like it really should improve the gameplay, I'm sure your work on this will be appreciated by many!

all i want to do is stare at desire, very nice UI improvment
Scott Guy
This will definitely help! Sometimes it's hard to tell what they're wearing with the old system. Thank you!
Elek Szerep
Thank you sooo much. This is a great help for sure.

That's a huge improvement. You will make the guide people loose their jobs. Especially the information about the right clothes.

This is the greatest thing I've seen today!
