0.13 is focused around Kate and her adventures in Max's villa. This time she's free to move around the house and not everything is constricted to linear events.
And since 0.14 isn't far off, it's a good time to ask you what you want us to focus on.
If option 8 wins, we'll have another poll.
2019-03-25 10:38:00 +0000 UTC View PostAs you've probably noticed, we've had a lot of polls recently, so today we've decided to show the results.
On February 22nd we had a poll about dynamic/predictable NPC behavior. 65% voted for dynamic behavior so characters act depending on their needs. You can already see this in the game, we implemented NPC behavior for Ann, Lisa, Alice and Kira in 0.12.
On March 6th we had a poll about Kate's first. The game will have several op...
2019-03-19 12:50:19 +0000 UTC View PostFollowing the poll results, from now on we'll be releasing offline versions on 19th of the next month.
This month we released 0.12, so today's the release for offline 0.11.
P.S.: this version says it's 0.10, we forgot to change the number. This is purely a visual bug, though, all 0.11 content is available in this ve...
2019-03-19 12:39:14 +0000 UTC View PostAs you've probably noticed, offline version releases are quite sporadic. Offline version has its ups and downs, so we've decided to put it up for a vote.
Pros:
Cons:
Max can finally watch what's going on around the house by spying through his cameras. You can do this with a laptop or by pressing a dedicated button on the button of the screen. For now all 8 cameras will be available right away. The game correctly shows the lightning, you can watch all characters, everything should be working properly.

February is finally over and let me tell you, it was one of the most stressful months yet. If we knew how much work we'd have to put in beforehand, we'd probably space it out through several months. By the point we realized how much time it would take, a good portion of the month has already gone and we decided to double down to finish everything up as quickly as possible so we can put it behind us. 0.12 is 100% mechanics. New locations, characters in them, moving around, sometimes interactin...
2019-03-05 15:57:52 +0000 UTC View PostWe had gigantic plans for this month, and it looks like this time we might have gone too far in few places :) We had to do insane amount of work in order to implement all new locations and characters, which was a necessary foundation for future content and will be used by both Kate and Max. And of course we couldn't just copy old content, image quality improved too much, old images would stood out like a sore thumb. Plus, as I've already mentioned before, in most situations Glamour uses sprit...

When I was talking about all the work involved in adding Max and his villa, I mentioned new locations and characters. To put it in perspective, we started working on BB early October 2016. Russian version of 0.1 came out December 27 2016. Translation took another month and 0.1 was released on Patreon in January 28 2017. This is colossal amount of work, adding Max's villa means adding over 300 sprites and full screen images.
We couldn't do all of it in 0.11 so players weren't able to mov...

As some of you probably remember all images from BB were full screen size and it had several drawbacks. For example, characters were always wearing the same clothes in every periodic event. Which is why the game had tiers for clothing, when some big event would change what everyone was wearing. From a technical point, displaying images this way is easier, but it gets stale.
Another restriction the game had was inability to have dynamic, well, anything. The game had very rigid schedule, ...
