Very Limited in Scope Proof-of-Concept Customisation Demo
Added 2024-07-26 22:04:14 +0000 UTCWe were overwhelmed (and slightly terrified) by the number of you who signed up after the trailer release for early access—your enthusiasm and support mean the world to us.
I, the programmer, have spent the afternoon whipping together a very limited proof-of-concept to showcase the customisation menu, allowing you to explore the customisation features showcased in our trailer.
Here’s what you can expect from this proof-of-concept:
Customisable Appearance: Change various aspects of the character as seen in the trailer.
Customisable Personality: We managed to record a greeting for every personality, there are currently 5 unique greetings depending on your choice, also as seen in the trailer!
Saving & Loading: Your customisation will be saved and loaded when you restart the game. This is primarily for those of you who will have a favourite configuration in the future. It's also because of "Have I ever told you the definition of insanity?" reasons. NEVER BEFORE SEEN IN ACTION!
Reset Button: We added a reset button that will bring you back to the main menu, so you can test out other combinations. Or Quit! That's fine. It's only here for this VERY small and limited proof of concept.
BUGS!: There may be bugs. I will fix them if you tell me about them. I may also say a swear or two upon realising I made a mistake. Don't worry about that; the first step in every bug fix is intense self-deprecation.
This proof-of-concept is our way of showing you that this is, in fact, a real game, not just an animation. While our writer and voice actors are hard at work on the demo's dialogue, we wanted to provide something tangible to thank you for your support and to demonstrate our systems in action.
However, I have to stress this, because our voice actors and writers are hard at work, there isn't any other content in this proof-of-concept. Enabling other gameplay features would result in some parts having dialogue and some parts having none, and we don't want to give a bad first impression.
So, we hope you like poking around, and we'd love to hear the initial feedback on the different looks and personality types we've got planned. Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being a part of this journey with us!
EDIT: Fixed a bug with the gender buttons not working.
