The first update to a new year! It's been a chaotic time but I have an overall good feeling for this year. To start it off, the first release of the year introduces a few things to help set the mood of the game.
The first major change is the introduction of time of day. This replaces the arbitrary timer with what it was meant to represent: the time until sunrise. The timer has been replaced with a clock that starts at 22:00 (10 PM) and ends at 5:00 (5 AM) with each night lasting 10 real-time minutes. The sun will rise starting at 4:00 along with the birds and the run will end immediately at 5:00, with an instant failure if you're not dressed by then.
The second major change is the addition of stripping animations which replaces the previous placeholder animations. There are now animations for taking off and putting on each of Rika's clothes along with sound effects to accompany them. This makes it feel more like you're actually stripping naked in public.
I have also developed processes to streamline the process of building and uploading, which includes support for the itch.io app. This opens the door for auto-updating support through it. I can more quickly release hot-fixes to address minor bugs in-between releases. I am still building towards my aforementioned March goals and with releases on the third Friday of every month.
Thank you to all my patrons for keeping me going into the new year! It's because of you that I am able to continue full-time development. However I am still far from sustainability and am still living on borrowed time. If you like this game and want to support its development, please consider subscribing to my Patreon!
