Important things
Sep 1 at 10:00am
0.6 release is getting close, we're working every day to finish everything we've planned. Today I'm going to tell you about upcoming update.
There are many different opinions about what's the most important part of any game. Most people will say gameplay, someone will say the story or graphics. And someone will say neither matters at all. We spend a lot of time on all of them. But for me it's probably the depth of the gameplay mechanics. Here are some examples:
0.6 will have an option to invite classmates in the cafe. A great opportunity to improve relationships and learn something new about them. Every step of this event will have a mini-dialog. Also, Kate will try to order their favorite dish, and if she guesses right, it will improve the relationships and there will be a note in the character's profile. Kate can pay the whole bill, split it, or not pay anything at all. The result of the date will depend on many factors and will affect on relationship and attraction one way or another.
0.6 will also have flirting. We're still going to work on it in the future, but you'll be able to try flirting with another characters. Again, reaction on the flirting will depend on many elements. For example, Kate's assessment of the reaction on her flirting attempts will depend on her communication skills.
You'll be able to buy one of three laptops in the game, and since there's no reason to have more than one, if you decide you want a new one, you'll be able to replace your old one by paying extra. Obviously, the game won't let you do it if you don't have the money or the model is unavailable.
While those things might look minor, I think they make the world more alive. Unfortunately, I can't show off any of this in pretty screenshots, which is why I didn't post that many images in August.
And of course, it's all just a bonus to the main content. Here's what's going to be in 0.6:
- Asking your classmates out in the cafe, new dialogs
- A series of events with neighbor Maria
- Flirting mechanics
- New dialogs with classmates in college
- Inventory
- Shops
- Buying a laptop
- Online courses
- Quest log
You'll see everything soon in the game.
As always, 0.6 will be available on 5th for $40 Patrons, on 12th for $20 Patrons, on 16th for $10 Patrons, on 19th for $5 Patrons and two months from now for everyone else.
