A word about Freeroam v0.3.0
Added 2023-04-20 05:52:51 +0000 UTCGreetings Cadets!
First, let me apologize for being a day late with this post, I had lost track of time and thought today was Wednesday, not Thursday already.
That said, I'm happy to inform you that v0.2.6 is mostly done. We're busy ironing out the last of the bugs we've found before we make it available as a beta, and then released next week.
More importantly, we've started working on the freeroam world of Starwatch Academy. I don't want to reveal too much about what we have planned, but I do need to stress that freeroam is an entirely different beast from the linear story we've been providing so far.
The biggest change is that we'll be moving away from single "block" content. What this means is that some areas will be more developed than others, but there will no longer be a dependency on everything being at the same world state to move forward. As an example, this means that there might be 20 scenes for the gym, allowing you to visit it fairly often and get new interactions, but only 1 new scene for the archive.
Secondly, over the course of v0.3.0 and its sub range of updates, we aim to introduce a few new areas, mechanics and features. Spoilers mean I won't tell you much about them for now, but I will say that it's an advisable course of action to secure some form of income for your character in the upcoming releases.
As always, have fun and enjoy!
