Alpha 0.03 Patches

Updates:

• Beautified main menu (all done now)
• Fixed sleep scene day counter
• Made the eating scene more beautiful, set it beside a nice lily pond
• Added a gap between scenes with a custom message to indicate how well you did on each stage
• Minor bug fixes and patches (don't you hate it when devlogs say that?)

Trying to push for a Beta release soon, trying to clean up some mechanics and get everything working.

With the game slowed down a bit more by adding the gap between scenes, that gives players an exit point to break up the game. Which is good, I mean, I like the idea of playing this game for maybe a solid half hour, but longer than that and I think you may need to stretch out and speed up your breathing a bit.

Roadmap and future updates:

The roadmap for this project is still (roughly) as follows:

• Fix core loop to include more player feedback
• Make scene for reaching enlightenment
• Make scene for getting kicked out of the monastery (failure state, yes, you can lose this game)
• Beautifying main menu
• Add some delay/screen/something in between levels to delineate them
• Beautifying eating scene
• Music composing
• Sound Effects
• Sound implementation
• Beautify sleeping scene
• Options implementation (at the moment the options menu just displays a static image)
• Beautifying more in general
• Localisation and translation to different languages
• Implementation of localisation
• Look at distribution options

Remember to breathe today, it keeps you alive.
