Cards of Gluttony Dev Log #4 [20/03/2023] (Patreon)

Unfortunately I don't have much exciting to share this month as I've been busy working on a lot of things behind the curtains and a lot of in-progress stuff.

... so let's start with something I can actually show off!

Making the UI a bit more lively

I've added a few animations to the stats during battles to make it feel a bit more responsive and lively, take a look!

Localization and multi-language support perhaps?

I've actually had a few people offer some help in translating the game into other languages. Suffice to say, I was pleasantly surprised, as I didn't expect the game to spread anywhere further than just a tiny niche.

I'm currently in the process of refactoring the project so that something like this is possible. Frankly, when the first person asked me about it, I figured it wasn't worth the hassle... well I still sort of think so. But if I'm ever going to support multiple languages, I might as well do so now while there is less work to do.

It's your room!

Would you look at that, there's things to do in your room now! The only interesting one in here is probably the wardrobe.
... we'll talk about that once there's more to show.

Some miscellaneous things

A few more skin tones in the character customization! A few people have noted that the darker skin colors look a bit desaturated, so I added a few more skin tones.

Actual touchscreen controls! If you've used the Android builds, you'll have noticed that the download links to them are marked as "experimental". This is because the controls are quite literally the same as the desktop version, with taps being read as mouse clicks. Needless to say, it doesn't work very well, but I figured people would appreciate a mobile version either way, and it didn't take much effort to export to Android anyways. With this, the Android version should feel less like an afterthought.

Well that's it for this log! Do I have anything else to tease?... why yes I do.

There might be something of an awkward little moment at the gym.

Once again thanks for reading and thank you for your support!
