Feed My Affection 0.30.0

Since I was integrating the inventory system with the feeding game, I thought it was about time I overhauled the HUD. Information that you want to keep track of is now contained in a neat little character card in the top left. You'll also see one appear for Wanda on the right side during the new version of the feeding game!

One thing to note is that Capacity now works in the opposite direction. I did this to make it more straightforward, so think of both appetite and capacity as health bars that take a hit from foods that are filling and heavy respectively.

I was only able to implement one of the three features in the poll, so the others will have to come later. This is because I ran into some scripting issues during the integration, but I eventually found some workarounds and everything seems to function well.

The good news is that this kind of thing should become less of a problem in future as we now have our first new developer on the team! Please give a warm welcome to Tarova, who you can find on the Discord channel.

He is an experienced programmer and has already started implementing the new item cards, which you can check out in this build.

Going forward, Tarova will be taking care of most of the complex game features in order to allow me more time to focus on the art and story of the game. Once we get a good flow going, this should mean bigger updates with more frequent story progression!

If you'd like to, you can show Tarova some support by sending him a tip on Ko-Fi!

Change Log:

0.30.0

• New less-intrusive HUD with more information! Track your money, calories, appetite and capacity throughout the day.
• Item cards have now been implemented with relevant information. Still some adjustments to be made with the formatting, and large-sized images need to be added.
• You can now feed Wanda during her solo feeding session using items directly from the inventory.
• New HUD is also used for other characters (only Wanda for now). Track their calories, affection, appetite and capacity whilst feeding.

Known Issues:

The new HUD buttons are a bit large and will likely get in the way of a few things. This is just to make it easier for Android users for now, and scaling will be implemented later.

The other feeding games should still work, but the HUD might get in the way and the player's appetite/capacity won't match up with those games.

0.29.0

• A new event with Autumn has been added which occurs on the day after you introduce yourself to her.
• New artwork for Autumn, including two special scenes and a new outfit.
• Some more background art, including Autumn's kitchen and a scene in Autumn's garden.
• Milk no longer appears in the player's fridge at the start of the game and can instead be acquired from Autumn.
• The player character now gains +100 eating skill when having breakfast in the morning. This should allow the player to get through the mutual route with Wanda and the Ellie date again.
• Re-wrote the breakfast script so that the breakfast event does not occur if the player chooses not to have breakfast. There was a bug reported with this which may or may not have been fixed as a result.
• Fixed some spelling errors in Autumn's script.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when attempting to buy from the cafe.
• Updated some developer messages.
• Further reduced the overall size of the builds by removing unnecessary files.

Known Bugs:

• Skipping through the Autumn encounter too quick will cause her mouth to appear in the wrong place temporarily.

Thank you for downloading! If you have any bugs to report, please do let me know and include some steps to reproduce them so I can quickly find and fix the issues.
