Demo Expansion Update (0.5.3)


It's heeeeeeere!

The demo is now back to its former glory, except way better. A huge thank you to my Ko-fi supporters for catching countless bugs and offering so much great feedback over the past few months! 

The demo now has:

  • Option to choose between 2 demo types (Quick & Full)
  • 2 Escape rooms (1 NEW)
  • 35k+ Words (30k NEW)
  • All 14 participants (10 NEW)
  • Debate gameplay (NEW)
  • Free time gameplay (NEW)
  • Affection system (NEW)

Some of the many dialogue options viewers contributed to.

Patch notes:

  • Lots of new choices in the common route, including a completely new interaction with Maesol. (All thanks to the people who join my writing streams on Discord!)
  • Redrew Saeva's and Foris' faces. We're DONE with the redraws for now!
  • Many minor sprite edits.
  • Previously picked choices are highlighted in a different color.
  • Previously seen text is highlighted as well.
  • Added more pixel icons, including our beloved Ira!
  • The flowchart's default scroll position adapts to where you currently are.*
  • The second floor map unlocks gradually.
  • Added the option to mute the game when the window is not focused.
  • Prevented rollback on the nvl menu.
  • The map can no longer be used while a free time event is going on.
  • Fixed navigation in the profile menu.
  • Fixed an inconsistency that could occur when replaying the second floor debate.*
  • Eliminated Saeva's purunoia for real.
  • Fixed a bug with overfull escape room inventories.*
  • Fixed a bug I didn't even really understand.*
  • Fixed typos.
  • Other minor fixes.

*Beta only

You might also want to look over the last few patch notes, since most of the changes didn't affect the demo back then. But now it's all here!

After fixing all the bugs you will certainly dig up, the next devlog will be about a BIG content update for the Beta.

Thank you so much for your patience, and I hope you enjoy all the new content!
