Quick Update on the next alpha release.
Added 2021-08-11 20:51:49 +0000 UTCUPDATE1: After two weeks of trying to fix something that doesn't need to be fixed, I decided that the minimum resolution for the game now will be 1280x720. Meaning, as long as your monitor has this resolution you will be able to play the game.
UPDATE2: Give the time lost by fixing some very weird situations in the game, I won't be able to give Wagner's part for this month without delaying the game release. If no one complains about this, the next alpha should be released between 25 and 28 of this month. However, if you guys complain about it here, I'll be releasing the alpha without the next part for Wagner, only with the resolution fixes. Note that there are still things that need to be fixed, and I'll probably take the entire of the next month to fix them (essentially the Gallery, credits menu, and credits scene needs to work on any resolution you put, including the minimum resolution).
Hey there guys, I'm here to give you all a quick heads-up.
So, I'm beating my head on a wall for the last two weeks or so to try and fix some coding related to the position of stuff on the screen for small resolutions. And since it's not being an easy thing to fix some of those issues, I found myself unable to work on anything else.
I'm going to start on Wagner's next update today, but tomorrow I'll have my first covid shot (if everything goes right), and I do know that the vaccine tends to hurt your arm so if that starts happening to me I'll probably take that day off since it would be really hard to write a good story while in pain.
So we have two possibilities for the next alpha:
- The alpha is released normally only with the screen resolution update.
- The alpha is released a few days later than usual with both the screen updated and the Wagner's bit.
I do want to fix at least the game so you can play it on 800x600 which is the minimum resolution for the game, right now certain elements of the screen are aligned outside of it. I know a lot of you don't use a monitor with such a lower resolution, but I still want the game to work properly.
If you have any resolution bellows the 1200x900 the game will open in 800x600 for you. However, if your resolution is HIGHER than 800x600 I recommend you maximize the game window since all elements get in place as long as the resolution is above 800x600.
As I said, the chances today of someone having a monitor that's below 1280x720 is minimal, so if you have at least this resolution, just maximize your window and you will find mostly no errors.
However, I doubt I'll be able to fix the Gallery, The Credits Menu, and Scenes before the release of the next alpha, those will probably be set to be fixed later. I'm sorry about that.
Anyway, that's the update, for now, I still don't know if I'll be able to finish Wagner's part before the release date, if that happens please wait a little longer, the alpha will be on Patreon before the end of this month.
