" What I was up to?
I took a week off due to my mental health being low. The delays, crunch and problems with the 0.2.3 release got onto my psyche, I also had some delays with contracts in my company and I needed to relax a little. Then my pool collapsed due to filter pipe breaking, and water getting pumped out, till the ground & spilled water pressing the sides made it collapse. 65.000 liters of water.... Gosh, it was so exhausting, but I got the pool standing again, and it's even filled full with water again. (For people worried about my water bill, I pump water from my well, and I have a house powered by solar panels.)
Although my free time was pretty occupied, it was another kind of stress, so I'm now ready to throw myself into full-speed development again. I even have everything planned, and some things written already.
How will 0.2.4 look?
The coming release will be divided into 4 parts. Alpha-1 & 2 and Beta-1 & 2.
Alpha1 will add the web functions I put on hold before the 0.2.3 release. Auto updater should work along with it. It will also add a new outfit to craft for Alice, with 2 unique adult scenes for it. Lola will make an appearance again, and there will also be 6 new wallpapers. Including the postcard one. Let the rest remain a secret
Alpha2 will be the moment for your pets to have new content again! Gracie will have a bunny outfit to craft, and 2 unique scenes again~
A few exploration events will be expanded! Ever wanted to get back at Lori for taking all your hard-earned stuff?
Beta1 is made for battle maniacs! New arenas, cards, buffs, mechanics, enemies, and card & action sounds! Balance changes are coming
Beta2 will introduce new exploration events! Not only that, the hideout will get a new life with all NPC being interactable and having some lines, and new traders appearing there! The GUI change started a version ago and will be completed. A further expansion for pets is on the line too "
