Devlog #4 — Update 0.2: The Story Deepens

The Secrets Of The Town
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Update 0.2 is here!

It includes the next two days of the story — Day 3 and Day 4.

Just a heads-up: not everything is included yet. Some scenes from these days are still missing and will be added later in one of the upcoming updates.

I also planned to introduce new features — the wardrobe and the notebook — but didn’t have enough time to polish them properly, so they’ve been postponed to version 0.3.

Honestly, I have no idea how other solo devs manage to make visual novels on their own. It’s a real challenge. Just working on the text took me over two weeks! And I barely had any time left to work on the Ren’Py code and logic. 

Still, I want to stick to my plan: a new release about every month.  

Small updates, step by step — but consistent. I really hope for your understanding, patience, and of course, your feedback.

I’m especially curious to hear your first impressions of the characters.  

I hope they stood out to you. I pour a lot of heart into each one — their personalities, motivations, and internal conflicts.  Not in the sense that they’re all sweet — oh no. This town is full of difficult, conflicted people.  

And don’t forget — one of them might just be the killer.  Five girls are already dead. And it doesn’t look like they’re going to stop.

Thank you for playing. 💛

If you enjoy the project, please **support it with likes, follows, and comments** — that’s what keeps me going.  

And now… back to work.  

I hope Update 0.3 won’t take too long. 😉
