Sorry for the delay! This update was stupidly complicated and I'd write some snarky stuff about it but I am running on fumes at the moment.
re:Dreamer (0.10.10) turns this game into Disco Elysium.
Changelog:
- Finally, re:Dreamer lives up to its promise of being the Disco Elysium of gender bender visual novels with a line of investigative questioning. At the end of the events of the 0.10.8 update, Zach was knocked unconscious and had to be given medical treatment, leading to the director of Britney's theater department and the lead carpenter he was working with discovering that he was a woman. When Zach wakes up, Britney explains that she had to make up a lie that Zach was a trans man, but her director isn't buying it, and she wants to tell the rest of the club about him. Britney offers to answer any questions Zach might have to help him prepare for the line of questioning... or Zach can just go in blind. Getting advice makes it much easier for Zach to convince the director to stay quiet about him, but it isn't required. I think this is a nice compromise between offering a simple narrative and a winding one and holy fuck I am never doing it again as it was way too complicated (as the flowchart shows).
- Zach's meeting with Molly has been slightly adjusted to make the circle of people who know Zach is a woman but presented as a man smaller. Previously, Zach met with Molly (the director), Karan (the assistant director), and Himiko (the sound lead) in the green room, but Himiko has been edited out. Should Zach fail to convince Molly to let him work on set while presenting as a man, it'll be much easier to keep just the assistant director quiet about Zach first presenting as a man instead of him and someone else.
- The first of the shower CGs has been brushed up in quality a bit and should more closely match Zoey's sprites. There are finished variants for all the hair colors and eye colors, but I wasn't able to get the other shower CGs done in time and it'd look weird if this was the only one with custom colors.
I'm gonna go to sleep... can't even think about what the next update is yet...
