Others Val Karee [v0.5.30] [ValKaree]

[curiousguy01]

Been meaning to post an update, it's just that whenever I have free time I prefer deving over writing. But this is overdue so here's the latest...

This release has been a real grind. There's a lot of new stuff, and anything new needs to be R&D'd pretty heavily, so that all takes a lot of time. The season also took its toll, and I had a pretty bad bout of seasonal depression/anxiety which killed my motivation. I even stepped away from deving for almost a week because I just didn't want to do it. That's very uncharacteristic of me since deving has been my passion since I started nearly 3 years ago. But I seem to be over the hurdle and have been putting in good sessions for a few weeks now.

The next level will include a number of new things - a new enemy, a new trap, new characters, new puzzles, and a bunch of new anims. I have most of the anims completed and I'm almost done building the level skeleton, after which I need to polish it up and add backgrounds, dialogues, etc to make it presentable. There are also a number of bug fixes I need to address. So with all that, I estimate I'll be ready to release beta in about 4 weeks.

Thanks all and stay tuned for updates.

I'm getting close to releasing the next version. I haven't decided if I want to have a beta round or not, but if you're interested in beta testing PM me.

Pretty late in the game to be introducing a new mechanic but here it is, maps to ctrl by default. Main reason I added it is to move around the level quicker. Curious to see how it will affect other gameplay/difficulty/etc. It will be disabled during the green zombie scene.

Will it be possible to sprinting slide?

Will it be possible to sprinting slide?

At this point no, that throws off the existing mechanics. I didn't want to have a 'do everything faster' button, just a faster way to move around the levels while you're exploring. If it's a problem I'll just remove the sprinting. We'll see what people think.

Found this game a not long ago. I liked it so far. I really liked Parasite in City too. Any good insipred by that is worth a try.
At the point the story currently is, I hope in the future the sex part will be a more active part in the gameplay, and not a just punishment/endgame screen.
Some suggestions: at the beginning where there are more branching paths it was very easy to get confused and lose where I am. A map in the future might be helpful. And I read everything, but maybe I skipped over something idk, but I got stuck at a point, and had to look up, that I had to kick a tree a couple times.

2 weeks is a short time lol

 

[juliennl31]

2 weeks is a short time lol

ofc it's short time, but usually valkaree release the game after 1 week of beta, sometimes even earlier that's why i asked

 

[valkaree99]

The beta was well received and as always the testers provided a ton of valuable feedback and direction. I have a solid to-do list before the public release but unfortunately I've had almost no time to dev. It's a pretty busy time so I can't say when the release will be ready, but I'll update the thread once I know more. Thanks all for your patience.
