Progress on the development of Malevolent Planet - 5th August 2020

Added 2020-08-05 04:12:36 +0000 UTC

Since yesterday, I have made progress on the items from below. Also, keep in mind that "First Dialogue from the Village" marks v0.1.1's new dialogues. There is already a dialogue with Melissa in the village, so those are just new additions to the village's content.

From the UI checklists.

UI for images is finished, meaning that you can click images to see them in full resolution, then you can click around them to return to the previous interface. GIF below.

From the Writing checklists.

First Dialogue from the Village is finished. Word count is 742.

Second Dialogue from the Village is finished. Word count is 1170.

Third Dialogue from the Village is finished. Word count is 1215.

Fourth Dialogue from the Village is finished. Word count is 1714.

The dialogues are fully reviewed (a lot of proofreading and checkups) and they are ready for the next version. You will get to know Sarah better, while advancing the main story to some degree. Since you will get friendlier with her, lore-wise it opens the opportunity for some NSFW content as well. Below is her portrait since I have not shown it within the game yet, even though it was posted in a development update and it's possible that she's not very fresh in your memory. It wasn't easy developing a shy character, but I think I did a good job.

Unrelated to the above, I received some feedback regarding the last version. The quest had positive feedback, but the way to reach the quest was reported to not be intuitive. I realize that you might have suffered through the same issues, even with my instructions, so that whole process needs to be changed. I don't know how yet, but I promise that I am actively looking for solutions.
