The road to v0.3

With the release of v0.2.40, work on v0.3 will go full steam ahead. Here I will talk about what you can all expect from the v0.3 releases and what the future holds for The Fixer. This post aims to consolidate all the plans, results from votes and anything else of importance. 

Breast sizes. This is probably a good place to start. These will come in 3 sizes with all outfits and scenes to match.

Wardrobe update. Since I am doing a lot of work on the clothing to match the new breast sizes, I also decided the wardrobe could do with some extra additions. So now I am testing a new colour picker as well as the ability to set the clothing to more transparent or fishnet versions.

New way to travel. I got a lot of feedback about the current travel mechanic and have decided to rework it. Now it will take a more traditional approach where you travel to different districts via a travel map. Once you pick your destination, Sammy will get on the bus (or walk if you chose to) and travel to where she wants to go. This will lead to bus/travel specific events of which I am sure you can imagine.

Personal actions. Sammy will be able to perform certain actions regardless of where she is in the world. Some will tie in with jobs that have been unlocked while others are more simple. I will keep a bit of mystery here and let you work it out yourself from the image.

World storylines. Almost all of the storylines will be very world focused. The most obvious example is street prostitution which can be performed anywhere. Once the storyline for it is triggered, you will unlock the ability to hang out anywhere in the world and "advertise" yourself. 

I am also in the process of testing a non sex focused world job that, much like prostitution, can be performed anywhere. 

And then of course we have others such as gloryhole storyline, Simon PI work, Market work and Security work that will lead you all around the city.

World events. Unlike the world storylines, these are much smaller, one off events. Events for the bus, while wandering around killing time, while changing clothes in the bushes and any other smaller event I can think of. We have already seen much of this while in the school and now these types of random events will be expanded to the rest of the game.

Flatmates. It's starting to get lonely for Sammy living all alone so it's about time she got some flatmates. As mentioned in a previous post, the community voted for her to get a Tomboy flatmate, a trap/femboy flatmate and an outcast/yandere flatmate.

New characters. Along with the flatmates, there are a few other characters planned. Of course Sammy needs to pay rent so there should be the landlord. There is also Ali (pictured) and her boss. There will also be a fair few others but I will talk about them another time.

Emile. Right now she has played a fairly small role in the game. She is planned to help you out and show you around Blaston during the first days of the game as well as later on because a fully fledged housemate.

New locations. Work has already began on adding in new locations. The lake has been heavily expanded as well as temp events added. It will likely become quite a major location in Sammy's life as a good place to relax and have fun. The school has also been expanded a bit to make way for new rooms as well as the industrial area seeing some new locations.

Jobs. Finally we will get to see the diner job added as well as an update to the pub. There will be the prostitution events as well as the non sex related job mentioned earlier in the post. I also plan to add/expand some mini jobs such as the fliers, washing the trucks at the truck stop, cleaning in the motel and selling bootleg booze.

I'm sure there are some things I am forgetting but this post is already pretty long so I will leave it at that. 

It will take longer than usual before we see the next public release as going over the clothes and CGs to add in the breast sizes as well as the code updates needed for the new content will take some time. But as usual I will keep you all posted.
