About current development process

note: this is a duplicate of the last post from the discord server, just thought I'd post it here in case someone is not on the discord server. so if you are on the discord server, you have already seen this.

i would like to update you on the current development process:

im preparing for a 2 more weeks of playtime for the next version (0.1.5). we'll gradually move away from a linear narrative, and sandbox mechanics will be introduced into the game. of course, there will also be further narrative development around Elijah, the Cook, Kyron, more interaction with Saul, and new side activities. and a bit more.

want to note that the linearity of the content will be reduced gradually. you won’t be thrown into a field with nothing to do; i want to transition the gameplay in sandbox direction smoothly. at the same time, West Has Fallen will never be fully sandboxed — im trying to strike a balance between linearity and sandbox elements.

as i mentioned before, you can expect the next version around the end of the month. there will be no "pay me via Patreon to get the version a week earlier" thing, i want to do without that by now, but it will happen sometime later (maybe with 0.3 version, when the game has proven itself enough in my eyes).

thanks all for support!! im very happy to see your interest in my game. no kidding, it motivates a lot.

luv! <3

p.s. a bit about future plans: the next versions will develop the first phase, then there will be a QoL-update that makes edits to the entire first phase of the game (and including feedback edits) and then we move on. something like this
