SITAR 0.99 "Almost Perfect"

Added 2023-04-02 15:11:59 +0000 UTC

Here we are, very close to being ready for release!

This new versions of the SITAR beta available at https://arianeb.itch.io/somethings-in-the-air-redux/patreon-access or you can use the attached 86MB patch to update your 0.9 game to 0.99.

Android has been updated as well, but cannot be patched. I decided adding voice to android would make the game too big, so unless there are important changes to be made, the android version on itch.io might be the last.

Main changes are improvements to about 100 images, dialog and sound changes, added voice to Chapter 3 of Rachel Meets Ariane.

Basically in the last two weeks I play tested the game completely (starting from scratch) three times: Once as a male, once as a female, and once on Android on my phone, noting anything that needed to be changed or improved, and changed them.

I played the game in weird ways testing that the game would redirect me to the right place at the right time. Even fixed issues caused by loading saved games that skip over important scenes.

Patch notes available at https://arianeb.itch.io/somethings-in-the-air-redux/devlog/509425/somethings-in-the-air-redux-project-099 I'm getting reports, of Windows Defender "quarantining" the exe file due to false positive virus detection, If you can't find your sitar.exe file to launch the game, see the patch notes for solutions.

If you find odd surprises, bugs, or the game crashes in error or you get a red screen, message me through the patreon messages, leave a comment, or post it in discord.

Edit to add: Got reports of missing file in patch Couldn't find file 'images/pinkyendbw.jpg' Added it to patch.

Also known issue: some of the voiced lines do not match the dialog. This will be fixed in final version. It requires me to play every variant of RMA line by line, which I am doing, but I'm not going to update 0.99 with those changes immediately.
