Fitting Room - Midweek progress teaser (Patreon)

Just a little mid-week progress report and more teaser footage of the upcoming update, which will include a few new sliders and settings, and the accessories and clothing system.

Along with that stuff, we're working on all the community suggestions, bug reports and feature requests for the next playtest - you can see a few examples in the video but I'll outline them here as well:

Turntable suggestion from Przemek Pokorski, Bomblord and Adam, has been implemented. Players will be able to rotate their character 360 degrees with the Rotation slider in the Pose category (which will have a bunch more fun stuff added in future updates!)

Freeze animation button has been added, this will stop the NPC from playing their idle animation and from looking at you, which will make it easier to place accessories.

Hair gradient controls have been added, suggested by DrathFox. Players will now be able to control the size and position of the gradient with the new Gradient Strength and Gradient Position sliders in the Hair category, which should open up the ability to make more legit looking metallic hair, or hair with bleached tips etc.

Cursor has been slightly redesigned so that it stands out more from the UI, suggested by 794.

Fitting Room will have an absolute ton of accessories eventually, each with color options as shown in the video. Here's the first 8!

Since we have a public demo of Fitting Room planned, I imagine we will be doing something fun like giving Patrons a couple of rare / exclusive accessories and clothing items to show appreciation to supporters of the project <3

It's not fully decided on yet, but we also hope to have accessories and clothing items for Fitting Room unlockable throughout Virtual Novel's story mode. 

We're making progress on a few more features (movable UI) and general user-friendliness and bug fixes (being able to place photos near the UI) and these will make it into the next playtest build too.

That's it for now! Have a great week, prob another update on Sat x

Love devs
