🕑 Added 2020-03-29 21:39:22 +0000 UTCFor anyone new, these pre-release posts highlight what content or changes will be coming to the next update. ^^
update 0.09 content
-Adjustments-
-Older sections had scenes touched up, new expressions and better fitting for their moments, etc.
-When reaching end of an update's content, the game no longer jumps back to the title screen. This is intended! (ends after day 12 section 3 is done). This is to stop stats and variables from carrying over into a new game on a 2nd play through for now. (we will fix and adjust things back to normal, once we figure out how to manage the stat issue.)
-Adjustments to dialogue text in the gui text box. It is now bold and should be easier to read, we will continue to ensure this element is fine tuned.
-New content-
-New outfits have been added. (Juliet cheerleader outfit seen in day 10 sec 3) (Miki magical girl outfit seen in day 9 sec 3) (Miki & Erika pajama outfit seen in day 12 sec 3)
-Day 10 has been added.
-Day 11 has been added.
-Day 12 has been added.
-John's sprite has been added. (Day 1:sec 1) (Day 2:sec 2) (Day 3:sec 2) (Day 4:sec 1) (Day 5:sec 3) (Day 9: sec 1) (Day 12:sec 1)
-Nurse's sprite has been added. (Day 4:sec 2)
-New cg scenes added Day 3:sec 1 (Heather giving Erika a diaper wedgie)
-New bg art added. (Dorm room day, sunset, night) (Hallway day, sunset, night)
-God mode is back! ($10 supporters, check for the "God mode update 0.09 post on patreon for a special version of the game) This mode gives you max stats and all variables at the start of the game. Letting you unlock all content that's locked, which covers dialogue, scenes, etc.
-Quick tutorial added! (optional) (helps go over what functions the gui buttons are used for).
-Known or possible issues being looked into- (feedback very helpful! <3)
-Game freezing. There's been a few reports of their game freezing, the most solid lead I have on this as of right now is that it happens from the following. If you save the game at a given area? When trying to load that save, it will load from it. But the screen is frozen and the text might even look like it's "Hey there how are y" with the rest missing. (don't confuse "Hey there how are y-" as "-" is a story intended cutoff during dialogue.)
-Stat menu. If you click on the stat menu icon and return to the game. Anytime the game moves from one background to the next, there's a brief flash of the stat menu between the backgrounds. (This shouldn't be major game breaking, but we'll aim to have this figured out with update 0.10)
-Stat menu broken? (not sure what is causing it, need feedback). At some point in the game during play through, when trying to click on the stat menu icon it doesn't do anything. If you have details about this to share about this bug/issue, please mention it here or feel free to send me a direct message about it. (not to confuse anyone, if dialogue in the chat/text box isn't finished being written out by the engine while you try clicking on the stat menu icon. It won't let you until the dialogue is done being written out. Something we could look into adjusting too, but please make sure this isn't linked to the above issue when reporting it.)
-Things being considered-
-Skip button to new content. (would have to see how to handle it with unlockable content, unless people are okay with just checking out the general content of new days. Then do a fresh start or use god mode to see all unlocked content.) (I'd like to make it so you can copy over previous saved data to new updates without it breaking the game, but until then.. Sadly this is the best I can think of for not forcing everyone to replay through everything freshly with each update monthly. >.< )
-New sections transition screen. This is something that is coming at some point in the future. It would be a special screen that acts as a loading screen between the end of one section to the next section. Something that is a bit more professional and nice looking compared to how it all works right now. (We'll try to ensure this can be skipped for those who are doing 2nd play through of the game.)
