#release #progress report
Ahoy folks!
This newest build is now halfway to public release! Just as a reminder, the release schedule is:
That's right, we're now at the point where early access to the build is only $10. I've had some pretty good feedback from those who have played it already, so I'm fairly confident you'll enjoy the build :) You can get them here on SubscribeStar or here on Patreon!
In other news, one of the newer Discord members referred me to a dev that might be able to help me with a long-awaited requested feature: being able to tell when you've completed all of a girl's side scenes without having to click on her. Currently, the idea is to greyscale her image based on whether or not your progress variable matches the max number of quest steps that girl has. Once you've completed all of the scenes for a girl in that build, her photo should grey out next time you open the book so you know there's nothing left to do.
We're still working out the kinks, but if all goes well, I hope to have this feature implemented in the next build after this one. I'm also considering putting question marks in the places of all the girls you could potentially unlock in a given build so you have an idea of what your maximum amount of progress is.
There are those two things and a couple of other things being worked on for the next update after this one, so there may be a few less scenes and more Quality of Life changes. We shall see what we come up with.
In even more exciting news, I've reworked the way I plan story arcs and have 2 of the 4 main antagonist arcs mapped out. This'll make it easier to plan the content coming up and hopefully streamline the process even further.
That's all for now! Enjoy the build!
