Progress Update, social media challenge, & Ko-fi!

Heart Fragment
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Updates & Greetings

First off, I hope that all of you out there are staying safe and well right now! Despite this being such an unusual time I am doing my best to stay healthy through all of it. It's been hard, because my health has taken a small dip, but I remain hopeful for the future for all of us.

Heart Fragment's development has been coming along well! There's been a LOT of stuff going on.

  • The prologue has been further expanded with more dialogue choices & CGs. An update on the demo with this new content will be released late April or early May along with the updated GUI.
  • Updated GUI will contain a text log, a feature to check the protagonist's social media feed for bonus CGs and dialogue, character bios, a music box, and more.
  • All characters now have voice actors cast which you'll also get to hear in the update!
  • Progress on the social media CGs is coming along well, but one of our artists has been unable to send updates due to heavy quarantine in her area preventing anyone from coming to fix her internet/data connection. I'm wishing the best for her and hope to hear from her soon so that I know she's safe & sound!
  • There's now a couple of mini games coded into the game as well.

We also now have a Ko-fi set up, and each 'coffee' contributed will unlock further content!

If you can, please consider supporting us on Ko-fi! Every 'coffee' will add another dialogue option to the game. There's already 100+ choices to make (and no meaningless choices!) but this will allow you to even further customize your Heart Fragment experience.

Contributing 3 or more coffees will also get you a copy of the full game when it is released! You don't have to contribute all three at once, either; you can do this over any period of time leading up to the release of Heart Fragment.

For every 30 coffees contributed, a new CG will be added, and you will get to vote on who you'd like to see featured in those CGs!

And... a social media challenge on Twitter!

Info is in the graphic above, but to sum it up: every 100 followers we reach (up until 1000) will have a giveaway draw for a copy of Heart Fragment when it is released + the more followers we gain, the more extra stuff we'll unlock in the game! 350+ for more personality traits, 750+ for alternative outfits for all the main characters, and 1000+ for an expanded OST!

Follow us on twitter @heartfragmentvn!

Thank you all for you time!! Sending you lots of love.
