Stormside v0.2 released!

(Or more accurately, v0.2.01)

Sup nerds :D

So, at long last v0.2 has been released. (And I was on time :D, it actually got released on Oct 30th, but the patrons get it first.)

It's completely free for everyone, and it takes you to the end of day 8. Took me ages because it's more complicated than previous releases, and I'm just some guy doing this while I'm not doing my actual job.

If you're planning to continue from an existing save, read the following.

Big bug happen, very annoying. I released v0.2.01 as a fix for big bug, but it's not 100% effective. Try your save, if you manage to get into day 6, you're in the clear and you're fine. If not, restart the game and just skip though making the same choices. Onions and scenes are persistent so you won't need to unlock them again. This usually takes 5-10 minutes. Sorry about that. Frustratingly, there's nothing further I can do about it due to exactly what the issue is. (For those familiar with Ren'Py, the return stack got the clap.)

Anyway, here's some random facts about 0.2 (In comparison to 0.12, if you last played 0.1 then just try 0.2 I guess)

• Adds about an hour of playtime if you follow just one route. Because the story starts to branch, you won't get all the content in one playthrough.
• The start of the branching story. (Your choices in this update will actually affect future updates. Walkthrough coming soon.)
• The first of many punishment type scenes if that's your thing.
• 6 new H scenes. Though of course you can't unlock all of them on one save, and one of them is dependant on previous choices. (Make a save before you decide whether to choose whether to bring up the texts while Cassie's at your house).
• 2 new onions. Not many this time. I was focusing on getting the story going this time.
• A bunch of new outfits, but I've stopped counting these tbh.
• Redone gallery which is now acessible from the main menu (And also is just a bit easier to use.)
• There's probably a few more things I could mention, but I forget.

I think I mentioned in a previous devlog but with the release of 0.2, I'm gonna be removing the option to buy or download 0.12 or 0.11 since all the content from them is included in this new version. I'm not 100% sure how I'm doing early access content going forward yet, but I've decided that in future the my only platform for that kinda thing will be patreon. Anything I release for free will end up here. Sorry if this inconveniences anyone, but that's how it is.

Anyway, try 0.2, hope you like it. Since my top tier patrons get new releases 2 weeks ahead, I've actually been working on the next update in that time. It's planned to include the content from the weekend. Lotsa fun. Cya nerds.
