[Build] // Pico Sim Date <3 - 0.72.1 (Patreon)

Evenin' Peoples!

Boy does it feel good to be back~! :D

After the Holiday break and the NSFW art crunch, it was nice to be able to get down and dirty with the code again. I wanted to start off the year with a little spring cleaning, so lot's of polishing and bugfixing, but more importantly, I got around to putting in your random event submissions, so you'll get to see your content in the game!

[ Going through all the submissions, editing and entering them all in... lots of work! ]

---

So what's up? :D

This week I went through all the submissions and chucked them all into the game. I thought I was prepared for this but just like in the past, editing and data entry were big time-consumers.. (I talk about it a bit more in a previous Devlog Video).

But despite all that, they're all finally in! I hope you enjoy getting to see your collaboration in the game :)

If you're still interested in adding your own stuff to the game, I have some information for you below~

[ Updated art and a couple new gameplay systems - And yes that's how my notes look like when I design systems... ]

---

Other than your content being added in, there was various bugfixing, polishing, content-adding and as well as a couple of new gameplay mechanics.

This year I'm trying to be more concise, so to lightly touch on those new mechanics there is now a new "Balls Chance System" and "Unlockable Personality Talk Options". 

With the new Random Events, Balls effect your chances to succeed them. So If you don't have the personality to succeed in life, hopefully you'll have the balls to take those risks :)

During dates, you have to choose topics that are appealing to your date. Originally all these options were available to you but now they are unlocked based on your personality. Basically you can't tell a funny joke unless you have the "Humor" to back it up.

---

[ Behind-the-Scenes Time-lapse videos of each build and Commentary from Me :) ]

---

If you want more information on what kinda work goes into game development, I will start including time-lapse videos of the build, along with commentary. So if you're interested in watching a game being built right in front of your eyes, check out the God Mode Build~! :D

Anyways, I'm talking too much again. Next up on the menu will be NSFW art for the Yome Side Project and Allie's Climax, so be sure to keep a look out for those!

Much luv~
