Quickie: A Love Hotel Story - v0.24 Roadmap

Hey All!

After every build, we post a quick road map highlighting what you can expect in the build to follow. 

As we're hoping to release Q:LHS to Steam Early Access before the end of the year (it's looking like it'll be November/December), it's important Q:LHS has all the core gameplay and quality of life features added so the game better represents what we want Q:LHS to be. Therefore, v0.24 will not have any new heart events or hotel invites, but will instead be focusing on making the core gameplay loop as fun as possible for a variety of different player types.

Below are all the changes we're hoping to get done this build:

• Gacha machine mini-game.
• At least one new hangout.
• Part-time work mini-games outside the hotel (eg, at Ramen-san and My Whiskey).
• Changes to how you obtain the two types of in-game currency.
• Save slots.
• Settings menu remake (eg, fullscreen and screen resolution options in-game).
• Replay story moments in the gallery (story that is related to the gallery scene).
• QHM changes (eg, re-adding different guest types, tutorial and UI updates).
• Update character customisation scene to 3D.
• Add missing 3D characters.
• Re-working/Updating some h-scenes.
• Adding Aria’s new voice lines.
• Game difficulty options (eg, easy setting suited to players who just want to focus on story).
• Replacing some black screen moments with imagery (mainly in hotel invites).
• Experimenting with some time changes to be better balanced overall.
• A lot of quality of life improvements throughout the game (eg, more tutorials, notifications to show what’s recently changed and more sound effects).
• General game polish (eg, improving some 3D environments, older character busts and models).

Core game features should feel a whole lot more finished/polished after this build. New Heart events and Hotel invites will continue from v0.25 onward.

We're aiming to release v0.24 mid-late November for patrons, so stay tuned!
