NEWS ABOUT THE PATCH 0.40C1!
🕑 Added 2025-03-16 21:50:25 +0000 UTCBy the way, it’s taking me longer because I’m still learning to program and all… but I want to announce something: for the first time, you’re going to see a chain of repeatable and dynamic events based on your choices.
Imagine this: you go to a table as a waitress and have two options. When you return to the bar, those same NPCs suggest something else depending on your choice, while another character appears (basically, a spider web of interactions). And all of this will be repeatable!
If you don’t cheat, this will technically span about a month and a half in the game since Jacob arrived. And this is just with the Latin Gang over two in-game days.
To put it in perspective:
1 table leads to 3 scenes
Then, at the bar, there are 2 more scenes with those characters, plus 1 with the cook
That’s already adding up… and there are 3 tables!
So:
3 x 3 = 9 scenes
2 cook scenes (which I’m adding)
= 11 scenes
And within those, variations… bringing the total to almost 24 scenes (which means 2 months of development).
I told you I’d come back strong! 😈 Most likely, the patch will be out on the 22nd, and there will be no more delays—so don’t worry! 😁

On January 22nd, this patch was originally supposed to be released on the 22nd of last month(February), but I delayed it for personal reasons. With this "new" system—at least for this game—I earn for the previous month when I didn't release anything and for this month as well. Regarding content, since it's two weekly days with those variations, if you don’t "cheat," you gain about 11-12 days... And since events happen on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the early morning, the in-game equivalent is about two months... (in prison). P.S. It's normal to ask when the last patch was. I also paused my Patreon because I thought it was unfair to go a whole month without doing anything. But as you'll see, I've been working on things—I hope to surprise you! Hehe :D

That is pretty neat. I like that. I'm not trying to rush you or anything. I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something. When was the last patch release?

Imagine a tree. At the top there's a node that spawns three branches. Each branch spawns a couple more based on some decisions. Now you have a decision tree. There's recursion to navigate the tree if you want. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_tree
