Course of Temptation v0.1.24: first public release (Patreon)

This is it!

Download v0.1.24 

Release notes:

First public release.

Major features:

• Made a whole life simulator game!
• Summit Market job. Doesn’t pay much and isn’t very interesting, but it’s close to home, so not the worst way to spend a spare hour or two.
• QuickieBurger job. Pays better (eventually) but it’s a bus ride away in town. Many events plus a longer term plotline attached.
• The River Rat: A bar to drink, chat, get picked up at. Random events here but no job (yet! I have plans).
• Friday night quad party: Starting week two, get invited to the quad party. Great way to repair your Attention and Relaxation needs and find some fun. Events and longer term plotline attached.
• Master Blaster Arcade: Play solo for fun, make unwise side bets with others, play in weekend tournaments and be a tournament prize yourself. Learn about it by playing video games in your residence hall lounge and staking something besides money when asked.
• Plotline with your roommate and their SO where you’ll be issued dares and challenges.
• Tons of random events at the gym, park, library, your residence hall, the bus, and just walking around.

Mechanics:

• Implemented life simulation: locations, actions, needs, food, clothes, and all the rest.
• Implemented NPCs: semi-random archetype-based procedural generation as well as partly pregenerated narrative niches.
• Implemented “inclinations” to alter both PC reactions and NPC behaviors.
• Implemented event system to pick random event from a set.
• Implemented classes and studying.
• Implemented encounter system
• Implemented skills and skillcheck system

Bugfixing and polishing:

• A lot! I’ve been doing nothing else for two weeks!
