Mid-November Progress Report (Patreon)

Yoyoyo! Here's the mid-month progress report for November!

So.. Bugs, eh? Who knew!

I have been working on ridding the game of bugs. And ah tell you hwat, it's a big dang ol' job! But I've started to make a dent in them, especially with the help of some awesome bug testers! <3

POTTY BUGS. Yea, there are LOTS of bugs with using the potty right now. I've been going through and fixing those. A big part of where they came from is that I had restructured the sprite files for the latest updates, and didn't get a chance to fix the potty-using sprites. So using the potty should start feeling like a fun thing to do, rather than a 'guess-the-bug' lottery very soon! :P

UNAWARE ACCIDENT BUGS. Another new thing that was added, unaware accidents had led to some bugs. I have been fixing those!

DESPERATION / ACCIDENT EVENT BUGS. I have been fixing these in general as well! Trying to expand the sprites and events for some of the less-finished cutscenes too. Some of the sprites & animations for desp/accident scenes aren't super exciting at the moment, so I'm hoping to spice those up a bit :3

HIDE AND SEEK BUGS. There are some bugs with hidin' and seekin' that I'm fixing up!

SLIDE BUGS. There were a number of unfinished events and incorrect sprites occurring when using the slide. Since the slide is the best speedrun level-downer in the game (so probly a high-use zone), I wanna make extra sure that these are fixed. I'm also finishing up some variable events based on having Cassidy in the party, and whether Kiera is a scaredy-kitten :3

RANDOM OTHER BUGS. Assorted random bugs have been fixed- a lot to do with sprites or missing dialogue options (which are often the culprit for game-freezing). So hopefully you'll run into fewer random freezes and such.

ADVENTURES. I've made some progress with Central's door adventure, and fixed some bugs related with it. Kiera can now use the crawl skill properly, and get ever-so-closer to discover what's up with the door!

STROLLER. I've done some more work on Stroller sprites.. mostly ones in which things happen in certain parties pants, while snugly strapped into her stroller. Eheheh. What?! I gotta have fun sometimes!! (Jury's out on whether these will be ready for the next update, but getting there!)

That's it for now! Still a lot of stuff to clean up, so I'll mostly keep working on these bugs. Since the last official release of the game was October (giving me 3 months of dev time until January), I think that the purpose of the January 1 update will mostly be to release a more stable version of the game. There will be a peppering of new content, but yeah.. mostly just wanna make sure the game is as playable as possible before moving on to new stuffs!

Lemme know if you have any thoughts about anything, would love to hear from ya! Chat soon! :)
