WEEKLY RELEASE - v0.18.8!



The weekly update has been released!

This week you can finally repair the construction yard in Hillside, which will allow you to start constructing unique buildings in certain conquered districts! Only The Glades has a unique construction option for now, but many more will be added in future updates! Also, you can now get a permanent stat boost to MC's ARC and PHY stats, there's more scavenging options, new lore and also a naughty event with Molly in the garden! I hope you enjoy! :)

PLEASE READ! IF YOU ARE ON WINDOWS, LINUX OR MAC IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO NOT OVERWRITE THE OLD UPDATE WITH THE NEW ONE! JUST EXTRACT THIS UPDATE TO A BRAND NEW FOLDER AND PLAY! THE GAME WILL TRANSFER YOUR SAVE FILES FOR YOU!

KNOWN ISSUES: Due to the necessity of changing the User Interface some screens (such as the skill, inventory, fighter and crafting screens) haven't had a UI pass and look kinda janky. All this will be fixed in the next few updates, so please bear with me until then. Thank you!

CHANGELOG:

  • CONSTRUCTION YARD: New building in Hillside! The Construction Yard, once built, will allow you to construct unique buildings in other districts (Training Ground only for now - more buildings coming in future updates)!
  • TRAINING GROUNDS: New building in The Glades! The Training Grounds, once built, will allow you to increase the MC's PHY stat permanently by one! Also, may have more uses later!
  • Investigate: Investigating Hillside Development will now reveal the Construction Yard!
  • Investigate: Investigating The Glades will now reveal the Training Grounds!
  • Investigate: Investigating The Glades will now reveal the The Clearing! Revisit it for some peeks into MC's childhood, or Pixie being weird (five unique, randomised lines for each)!
  • Scavenge: You can now find Construction Materials when selecting "Search for Supplies" in Hillside (after finding the Yard!)
  • Scavenge: You can now find Vegetables when selecting "Search for Supplies" in The Glades!
  • Scavenge: You can now find Timber when selecting "Search for Supplies" in The Glades (after finding the Training Grounds!)
  • Molly: You can now be naughty with Molly in Act Three! Just talk to her while she's in the garden!
  • Cooking: Now when you learn your first recipe you will also get the ingredients for it, so they're not listed as "unknown" in the recipe book
  • Misc: Changed the Qarinah dream in Act Three so it only shows up once, and gave the "speaker" a namebox
  • Misc: Tweaked a couple of the district location backgrounds. Trying something out
  • Bug: Picking up the Sugar Water recipe was erasing your previous recipes. These have been restored!
  • Bug: While in the SUPPORT position, Rachel was incorrectly being called Ophelia. Very embarrassing
  • Bug: Players could access Roxy's character card before meeting her - this SHOULD be fixed, but let me know if not, as the code is a little complex
  • Bug: The simulation in which he was trapped is broken. Shaken, bloodied but unbowed, Typo Hero emerges from the cave and looks up at the Dread Arc's Tower once more. Brushing a fragment of crystal from his shoulder, he sets off once again...

what are we supposed to with the quite girl at college , if we're supposed to do anything at al

I cant see the character card for any of the characters

Then either you haven't left the Manor in Act Two yet, or you're not clicking on the arrow in the top-left of the screen :)

Okay, look, stupid work is stupid so I had to leave for a day because apparently I need money to survive or something but I finally clocked out and made it home and now my training grounds are repaired and HOLY SHIT THAT WAS HILARIOUS! XD

Also, Pixie is honestly just the greatest thing ever.  In both a humorous way and a wholesome way.  I would gladly have some arcane death crystal embedded in my chest by a crazed topiary if it meant I could have my very own real life Pixie.  

(+2)

Stoopid work, making us get up early and wear uncomfortable clothes and sit in metal boxes and then plasterboard ones! Where's all the AI overlords we were promised!?

I'm glad you liked the event, though :) I'm having fun creating these things now that enough of the districts are unlocked to make it possible. More to come!

Will it have an official translation into Spanish one day?

Yes, I will be commissioning official translations into multiple languages - including Spanish - once the game goes into beta. That won't be for another year or two though, sadly.

I'd like to get official translations underway now, but the weekly updates - plus going back over old work and revising it - make it impossible for translators to keep up.

(+3)

I took a few updates off to let some content catch up and recently came back and got to the point where you can start trying to take over sections of the map. I know that's kind of the section that's on currently, but I wanted to ask if you had any plans to eventually make that section auto-able? (Like an option to auto-win the battles)

LOVE the story and really enjoyed the game up to here but I found myself not wanting to put as much effort into figuring out the combat system. I know some folks found it easy but I think it just isn't my cuppa' tea!

Regardless of yay or nay, your game is incredible and I am looking forward to more!

(+2)

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

I hadn't considered an auto-win option for the combat system, but thinking about it, it would be fairly simple to code... so I'll look into working on that next week for the 0.19.0 update :)

(+2)

You're THE best!

(+1)

Quick update - the "auto-win" option is now in the game and will be available next week in v0.19.0 :)

(+1)

I think I love you.

I half expected my request to be received poorly because I know you put a lot of effort into the system (not to mention the rest of the incredible game), and here I am wanting to skip over it..
I really really appreciate your understanding - and MAN the turn-around time was insane! aha

I am stoked and looking forward to more!

(+1)

I really like the new background for Hillside Development!  Also Hazel's fan club. XD  New background for The Glades is beautiful!  I feel like sitting down in a chair on the porch and pulling out my banjo.  Enjoyed the artwork and all the bits for The Clearing, as well. ♥  (Meanwhile, I need to know more about this cheese embezzlement, and whether or not addressing the issue can recruit the Union of Mice to our cause...)

(+1)

I'm glad you like it! :) I wanted to experiment with a different background style for Hillside and The Glades and see how everyone reacted. So far the response has been positive, so I'll likely switch out the other locations too.

The cheese embezzlement is being strenuously denied, and in fact the representative is claiming that it's all a smear campaign orchestrated by his rivals. When asked about the claims of incriminating documents and rumours of impeachment, he had this to say:  "Squeak."  Strong stuff.

(+1)

I know Molly is a tough cookie, but... that tree bark has got to feel like a cheese grater against her back in her naughty scene. D:  Super hot (she's a favorite of mine, probably surprising nobody, so I'm very happy for the scene), but I feel like I need to apologize to her!  And possibly wash the blood and shredded flesh off of that poor innocent tree. >_>

Or, depending on just HOW tough her back is, maybe it's the tree that needs medical attention after being rubbed raw. <_<

(+1)

It's tree bark, not ground up glass and sandpaper ;) She might get a little friction burn, but she's just so happy to be in a world that has trees that she doesn't mind in the least.

Must be one of those fancy smooth trees.  I don't know, man, I'll take your word for it, but the trees around here would kill you just as soon as look at you if you happened to bump into them.

(+1)

I grew up around palm trees and, later, was raised literally in the middle of a forest. Trust me when I say that trees, whilst not comfortable to have sex against, won't do you any harm ;)

Well, if you speak from experience, I guess I can't complain. :P

Is there anyway tp update the android version of the game? Or do i need to delete the old one and completely start over?

(+1)

Don’t delete, you lose your saves.

You update by downloading the new version’s APK and installing it as an update.

If you delete the app you lose your saves, unless you backup them which is a bit more complex.

I'm not  completely sure how to go about downloading it as an update. When i do it through the package installer it says its doing that but it always fails

(+1)

It should work the same as when you installed it the first time.

Though, Android often likes to have extra space to install things.

Sometimes, people get better results if they install using SAI (Split APK Installer).

Since it at least shows you why the install failed. Instead of just telling you it did.

(1 edit)

I download SAI and the reason it gave for download failure was "Display Name Column Is Null"

I got it downloaded i have no idea why it happened but the apk i was trying to download was a couple hundred mb bigger than it was supposed to be

I don't know of this is an issue or not, but my MC seems to have forgotten how to make Ramen as soon as he learnt Sugar Water. 

Is there any way to relearn the item?

(+3)

It’s a known bug, it was supposed to be fixed on this version, but some stray bits of code made it so saves that only have sugarwater don’t get the recipe back.

You could wait until 0.18.9 or load a save from before 0.18.7 and do that event again.

It shouldn’t take away your first recipe anymore.

Thank you! I should have a save or two from v0.18.6, time to rummage through the save pages. 

Also, any chance of the quicksave button making a comeback?

(+1)

It already exists.

It just so happens that on PC it’s not turned on by default. You have to go to preferences and toggle the QuickMenu setting.

It moved to the top of the screen and only appears while someone’s talking.

Curse those stray bits of code!

(+1)

So typo hero was in one of thos stasis crystal things to be recycled!?!?!?!?!?

(+1)

It certainly seems that way! Oh, that Dread Arc... so cunning, so evil, so sexy.

(1 edit) (+1)

My MC seems to have forgotten how to make Pizza. Was that bug not fixed, or do I need to go back to before I learned Sugar Water to not lose it?

Also, while it's nice that visiting the clearing doesn't use up any time so I could see all the possibilities quickly, is that how it's supposed to work?

(+1)

Arc managed to break it again. Hopefully he manages to actually fix it next version.

I hope it’s not a bug that the clearing doesn’t use the timeslot.

(+2)

Not a bug, but might be changed later..?  Someone reported it on Patreon so I'm just gonna copy-paste my reply here:

As for time not passing, I was torn on whether or not to implement it, honestly... the clearing is a little oasis, not only for the MC but for the player, too. It's separate from everything that's going on around it, both the in-game war and the external mechanics. I don't know, it just felt "wrong" somehow to force a time pass on it...? Silly of me, probably, and I'll likely add the time change in a later update.

I don't know, though. I like it the way it is. Feels "right" in a way I can't quite express.

(+1)

Yeah, same.

Even from a gameplay standpoint, I enjoyed being able to see the other variations without having to go through all the hoops over and over. ´

A moment of respite for Robin, which. Kinda makes it feel more special that it doesn’t shove you back into the fray after it’s done. You can leave, whenever you choose to leave.

(+3)

The return of Typo Hero! Careful Arc, he looks like he's got a chip on his shoulder now...

(+1)

Ba-dum-tshh!

That pun was so terrible it's like you pulled it straight from my head!

Nah, the last time I tried to do something like that, all I got was a lousy quarter...

(+2)

typo hero best waifu ... jokes aside amazing job 

I thought he is a husbando😂

did i stutter

(+1)

Typo Hero is my nemesis and he must die! >:O

(Thank you!)

Bauen macht Spaß.

Hindernisparcours machen keinen Spaß.

In der tat.

(+1)

so uh... how screwed am I? I use the itch launcher so the game automatically updated

(+1)

If you're worried, you can click the settings cog next to the "Launch" option in the bar at the bottom and choose to play an earlier version in order to get to a place for a safe, clean save and then try loading up with the new update :)

(+2)

thank you!

(+2)

The itch launcher makes a new folder every update, so you don't need to worry about that.

(+1)

thank you!
