Changelog Summary

This month's update has been primarily focused on adding in new conversations/fleshing out some of the NPCs you can interact with! We've also been adding in a transportation system (the taxi), which you'll be able to use to visit an increasing number of areas outside of the hubs.

As the story/game progresses, new conversation options will unlock with various NPCs. Your affinity/relationship with them will also greatly affect what dialogue you end up seeing! In future updates, make sure to revisit your favorite characters often to see what new things they have to say. :)

• New area: The Paradisus, 37th Floor (Dakayivani's Office)
• Taxi time: Use the taxi on day 3 (the night after returning home from the Paradisus) to travel to new areas
• Motel access: On day 3, you can now freely enter/leave your motel room and the lobby to speak with Jiwa
• Casino access: On day 3, you can now go visit Sal in his casino (Catch 33)
• New convos/convo questions: Side conversations have been added for Dakayivani and Sal, and new options have been added in for Zhang and Jiwa
• Main quest teaser: Talk to Zhang for your next mission in the main quest (continuation not yet implemented, see below)
• Movement update: You can now click and hold to move your character (still WIP/slightly buggy) 
• Save update: Saving/loading is still quite buggy, but works a little more properly than before 

NOTE: The next area for the main quest (Renkon) is not yet implemented. The MQ will be continued next month! 

Next Month's Update

So what's up on the agenda for next month?

We'll be switching focus over to the main quest, including a new area, as well as continuing work on fixing up our save/load system. Your first opportunity to feed/buy blood bags will likely also be implemented.

Polls & Throne Content Submission:

The polls for next month's new content will be posted on Patreon soon! What skill and trait would you like to see implemented next?

For our Throne patrons: Make sure to submit your design suggestions for next month in the sheet or on Discord to be polled on!
