Plans for 0.54 & 0.55
🕑 Added 2024-07-08 20:40:00 +0000 UTCThese two months are going to be pretty crazy as we'll be releasing two versions of the game on September 1st.
Plans for 0.54
0.54 is planned to be the final public version of the game.
As all the routes have reached their route-locks all that's left is to continue bug fixing and adding in CG Scenes to everything that need them. So this version of the game will be public demo of the game; providing more than enough content, showcasing what the game is about, and what to expect in the future.
This allows anyone who is interested in the games' development whether or not they would like to support it further. As content is added to pre-routelock locations and routes, the public version of the game will be updated after it's release in the form of the standard a,b,c patches that we release every so often.
So the plans for 0.54 are to do plenty of QA testing and adding in additional CG Scenes where needed. Damien and Violet notably.
Additionally, we're going to shoot our shot at attempting to get the game on Steam in August.
Plans for 0.55
0.55 is the real meat and potatoes of the update as the game will finally progress past route-lock for the Bakery route. A route that many have long long since awaited the return of.
From 0.55 onwards we'll be working on the Bakery route until it is completed.
After the Bakery route is finished we'll move onto the next route, and due to the results of the polls the next route to be completed after Bakery is Kate! Woo!
Coming in at 29% of the vote. Once work has begun on Kate's route another poll will be held for the next route.
Artwork:
Sprite Overhaul, particularly of all the early sprites made for the game. Chelsea, Violet, Kate, Lisa, Matt and Mr Harley. In the early days of development each expression costed money and we needed to be as frugal as possible when starting out, so a lot of the earlier characters don't have very many expressions to utilize. With 0.55 that is going to change as we're going to be overhauling the sprites and adding plenty of new expressions for them, along with some new outfits perhaps?
Heading further into the Bakery route there is a LOT of sex going on, so much that we're not going to be able to properly CG all of it, so we're going to make use of some more mini-cgs for the smaller scenes that will take place. These will be the first CGs you'll encounter in the route in 0.55.
Writing:
Time to go all in on the bakery and get it to completion. For 0.55 we'll have Part 1 of 3 parts finished for the Bakery. Part 1 finalizes a lot of her corruption and sets up Part 2 which is going to be the significant meat of the route. With Part 3 being the epilogue of one of the two endings you get.
How many events will part 1 be?
15 new Bakery events post-routelock. Look forward to it guys, because it'll be quite the ride!
MISC:
There are a few programming hurdles we're going to have to get over when the game "changes" at the end of part 1, but with luck it should be simple to do since in the past we had the game work in a similar way. But no doubt it's going to cause bugs elsewhere in the game once we add it in.
As for music we still have a few tracks left to produce. But we should have the soundtrack finished either this month or the next.
Thank you all for your amazing support. Truth be told the writing for the bakery is really chewing away at the budget, but thanks to you guys we're managing to keep it at the pace we're currently running it at. See you soon with a Damien Content Update!
Thank you,
Hizor

If you're putting this on Steam I'm in. How's that going to work? Same updates on Steam as Patreon members will get?

I'm so excited to see what's coming with Kate. 🤩

If you mean having a scene replay with the CG Scene, I'm sorry to say that we won't be adding that.

Can the author come up with a setting that goes directly to the CG plot? I have played it five or six times and still haven't flashed a new CG, which is too torturous. The CG library only has pictures and no plot, which is even more torturous😭

So 0.55 is not the grand finale? Great (unfortunately, I missed the vote😭)
