Amir's Chapter 1 Update

Tri City Monsters
A downloadable Visual Novel

0.3.0 - July 26 2024

- The chapter selection menu is now grayed out by default and will unlock once you have chosen your MC's name/pronouns/body type in order to prevent missing MC data from crashing the game.

- If the chapter menu is grayed out for you and you have existing save data, go into options from the main menu and set your name/pronouns/body. This will ensure that the game remembers this information this time and should unlock the menu with all your checkpoints intact.

- You should only have to do this one time to straighten everything out.

- Set the Prologue and Character Intro chapters to default as grayed out until the player passes the in-game unlock flag.

- Created a two-column focus list to make navigating the chapter selection menu easier on gamepad/keyboard

- Keybindings for Auto Forward and Skip set to Ren’Py default for convenience (Tab and CTRL)

- Added advanced accessibility controls including an additional sans font toggle, text scaling slider, vertical space scaling slider, and easy reset default buttons. This is still being worked on to refine styling across as much font/sizing as possible- there are a couple screens where the text scale of Open Dyslexic still runs into a little trouble.

- Temporarily removed animated Auto Forward indicator. It was showing up on the incorrect - GUI layer and will return in a future update. (Auto forward still functions

- Gave the Body Type variable a default to prevent crashes

- Typographical/Text Styling adjustments

- New sfx

- New audio tracks

- Added new font to display Chinese chara cters for a Patron’s username
