A small update
Added 2018-10-04 10:17:08 +0000 UTCHey guys,
Just wanted to let you know what I have been working on, as this would normally be the time to post a preview.
As you know this update I intent to clean up all the redundant dialogs/code, fix bugs and implement player requests.
This helps me ensure that I can fully focus on content updates after this one, without any problems, all the way up to finishing the development!
This is what I have finished so far:
- Improved the overall UI.
- Seperated each girl's storyline a bit more (most side stories are still dependant on at least one other girl, but no longer as convoluted as before).
- The same goes for event conditions.
- Discovering new locations and contacts has been made more intuitive and no longer based on random values.
- New map locations will now be shown when opening the map.
- Redid the entire tutorial, adding the new mechanics and making it more user friendly.
- Added a star icon to memories & cosplay image thumbnails, to indicate if they are new.
- Added a bunch of sounds effects and updated some old ones.
- Added UI animations (also added an option to turn them off in the phone settings).
- Spacebar to skip to next dialog, for all those one handed players :P
This is what I'm currently working on:
- A more balanced gameplay (needs decrease & stat gain).
- Updating all the old dialogs/events.
- Improving the hint system.
- Making the primary stats play a bigger a role and adding several mechanics to increase and use them.
- Redoing the condition mechanics, making it less likely to run into bugs and adding an easy way to fix your game, if you do.
I'm aiming for a release 12th or 19th, depending on how much I can get done.
After that, I'll focus fully on adding new content.
Thanks for being patient guys!

2018-10-06 05:34:57 +0000 UTCAh, I see what you mean. Well the cheat module actually has the option to go back in time, but I feel like implementing that in the main UI would break gameplay a bit.

2018-10-05 12:18:41 +0000 UTCThere are times I am day dreaming and click past the time to ask one the girls on a date or I accidentally eat on Sunday and so I miss going to the beach and I either have to restart where I left off last time or go through another week. I am sure this far into the game it would be difficult to implement where I can use the wheel on my mouse to reverse time if I accidentally go past a specific time or event.

2018-10-04 23:15:20 +0000 UTCI agree and honestly it's a bit of a challenge. So while I'll try to optimize and balance them, I'll leave the cheat mode in as well, just to be on the safe side ;)

2018-10-04 16:27:07 +0000 UTCI'll be interested to see what you do with the needs, currently i just use the cheat mode to ignore them because they are far too super massively grindy, which kills all the fun. it's a shame though, could add a good level of complexity and strategy if done in a way that doesn't make you want to kill yourself then smash your computer... ;)
2018-10-04 16:17:44 +0000 UTCDo you mean while in a dialog? Reversing all the results after making a choice will be hard as there's a lot going on behind the screens. But there is a dialog history option to read back the most recent dialogs.

2018-10-04 16:02:40 +0000 UTCIs there a way you could make it so we can back up if we need to??

2018-10-04 15:11:30 +0000 UTCI don't intend to add those, as they are more of a side thing, they are not required to complete the storyand are a lot of work to add. However on my Discord there are some player made guides with all the locations.

2018-10-04 13:10:37 +0000 UTCIs there any chance you can add hints for the cosplay stuff? Thanks.
2018-10-04 13:01:55 +0000 UTCThanks for the progress update. We can wait for we know it will be worth it. Just take your time, don't stress.
