Hey what's up everybody, I have version 0.96 out for you all to enjoy! Lots has been changed, bugs fixed, and new scenes added! Next month will be the public release so I really have to cram out a lot of content for May :)
The majority of changes were made to the standard version as I fixed a lot of dialogue to make Claire a better overall character. A lot of critique I received was how Claire became a lot less interested in being the good guy late game, which I completely agree with. This stems from me working on the Spicy version simultaneously, which has a slightly different story and totally different ending (Claire's not necessarily a "good guy" in the Spicy version). So I re-wrote a lot of the dialogue for the standard version and changed a majority of the scenes to better represent Claire's character :)
I also received critiques about the consistency of how the player interreacted with events. Sometimes doors activated automatically, sometimes you have to click on them, sometimes they weren't properly marked, etc.. So I made it so most doors are marked with an icon and everything need to be clicked on. It's a small thing to overlook but it does make for a much smoother experience!
Thirdly; opinions about game overs seemed slightly diverse on if some players liked them or not. However something I love in DID games is the variety in game overs, so that's something that will always stay. With that being said, I did implement contextual dialogue so the player knows if an action may cause a game over or not. For ROE I will not be adding a gallery where you can unlock these scenes, but an area where you can view all the scenes once you completed the game for both versions. I coded this game like a dumb monkey and it would simply take too much time fix that.
And finally about the next update, which will be the last major content update for ROE. I have about 10 CG's left to add, which will create a grand total of 70 CG's in the game (I may delete one so I can have exactly 69, hehe). On top of that I have to finish the final area and epilogue, which is accessible now but no where near done. After that I just have to finish The Ninth Street Bus which won't take too long then we're on to bigger and better things!
