Hello everyone and welcome to a new sneak peek of Lucky Paradox.
The new Lucky Paradox update is finally available, and with it, new content for Maxy, Galila and Tomoe, as well as several translation fixes and bug fixes, although this last week my personal life has taken a dark turn, so I had to leave the development of new content on pause for a few days.
Let's go with the details.
During the first week of development, I have test and program everything necessary to finish the Alpha of version 0.9.3, and I fixed all the bugs reported by Patreons who were able to access early.
Once all those problems were fixed, Sirxtias was dedicated to make a compilation of grammatical errors in the English version together with some members of the Discord community, so many improvements were included in this regard (Thanks a lot to the community! They are the best!), all these corrections along with the fixed bugs were included in the Beta released a few days ago.
In parallel to the respective bug fixes, I have started the development of the next update, version v0.9.4.
I have a lot of new features planned in the next update, so I want to organize the whole development in a smart way to include as much content as possible. My intention is to add new content for Layla and a small content expansion for her sister Gia, as well as including Celestine's (The beach girl) side story, which will include new unlockable scenes from practically the beginning of the game, I think that making new content for the early part of the game could be great.
And... I'm going to add a new girl, which will be unlockable during Layla's new content. This girl is something quite different from what has been seen so far, and giving more details would be making Big Spoilers, but I have a lot of fun ideas to include here, plus some content focused on "Transformation", something like potions, but this girl will include this permanently.
So far, I'm working on writing the script for the new content, so there's still a lot to do, but soon I'll have the first concepts finished, and I would have liked to bring you more progress on it but....
Well, the title of this post includes "Sad News for something"...
And this is because on Wednesday of last week, my mother passed away after a long fight against cancer.
I don't like to talk about negative topics, but in this occasion, it has affected me quite a lot and not only because of the pain, but because of everything that goes with giving a dignified burial to such a loved and close one, those who have gone through something like this surely know what I mean.
Even at this moment it is extremely difficult for me to write these words...
Because of this I had to make a pause in the development (from last Wednesday to Sunday), as I was very affected both emotionally and mentally, it is the second loved one I lost because of this damn disease in just a few months, and despite wanting to stay professional and work to bring you new content all the time, it was impossible for me, and I apologize from the bottom of my heart.
Right now, I feel with a little bit of strength to continue with the development, so during the next progress report I will be able to bring you much more news than this time.
There has also been a constant request during these last weeks, about adding new slots for the Alter tier ($10), right now it is a possibility that I am considering, although it is impossible for me to know how many people are interested in this. The Alter has remained unchanged since the beginning, and I think after all this time it's not a crazy idea to add a few more (maybe 25 or something like that).
And that's all for this Sneak Peek.
Many thanks to all who support this project with their donations.
And, those who help by sharing Lucky Paradox, either by a recommendation or a review.
I wish you a nice week, take care, see you soon with more news.
Stawer.
