Version 0.4.1
Devlog – Latest Update ✨
Main Focus 🎯
- This update is all about Lyra and some key narrative improvements!
Major Changes 🆕
-
Reworked Introduction 🎬: The game’s intro has been completely revamped! Now you can make choices during scenes. I want these choices to really matter—not just change a few lines, but also set the foundation for a future relationship system I’m working on. Some choices already influence future scenes, making the story feel more dynamic and personal.
-
Scene Order Variation 🔄: Some scenes now change a bit depending on the order you meet the characters. For now, this only affects one scene, but I plan to expand this so your choices and the order of your interactions have a bigger impact on the story.
-
Lyra’s Scenes Overhaul 🌟: All of Lyra’s scenes have been reworked, with new CGs and a brand new sprite for one of her scenes! Lyra now has a lot more sprites than the other characters, so I want to bring everyone up to the same level in future updates.
-
Menu Sound Effects 🔊: Added new sounds to the menu! If the hover sound gets too annoying, let me know—I’m still thinking about tweaking it.
Fixes and Adjustments 🛠️
- Fixed several images and interactions that weren’t working right in the new menu, especially on mobile.
- Made small tweaks to some CGs and sprites for better quality.
- Fixed a few continuity errors in the narrative for a smoother story experience.
Plans for the Next Update 🚀
- Planning to rework Elara’s scenes just like I did with Lyra, with improved visuals and story flow.
- Hoping to add a new character! I made some progress this month, but she’s not quite ready yet. Fingers crossed for the next update!
- Started working on a map and navigation rework. Still deciding if I’ll add it or keep things as they are for now.
Other Notes 💡
- This month on Patreon, I added some special Easter-themed images for supporters! It’s a small start, but I want to keep making special content for holidays.
- I’m also working on improving the Discord server. It’s still pretty basic, but I’ve been researching how to make it a better place for everyone.
Thanks for all your support and feedback! Let me know what you think of the new changes, and stay tuned for more updates! 💖
Version 0.4.1 Note
A quick hotfix (v0.4.1) was released to address some issues on mobile that were blocking progress in the story. If you had trouble advancing on mobile, please update to this version for a smoother experience!
