Next Update Plans, Development Roadmap, and Another Bugfix/Patch

Alright, I don't want to spam this feed with a ton of posts, but I just wanted to give an idea of what to expect in the next week or two and in the more distant future regarding updates. Before that, though, there's a new bugfix to download. https://jupitarian.itch.io/fataclysm-paid-supporter-access/patreon-access

There were a couple of issues like the Gourmand's event not showing up in the gallery and Sakura's immobile picture getting cloned on the sidebar, but those should be fixed now. Unless there are any super pressing bugfixes from now on, I don't think I'll be making any more posts specifically dedicated to them. There's also a new feature where weight stage descriptions can be viewed in the gallery, so feel free to check that out!

Now, regarding the next content update, a few things are planned. Obviously this is all subject to change, but the general checklist is as follows:

• Addition of a new enemy to the Palace. The first content poll will be regarding who this is.

• Addition of a miniboss to the Penitentiary. This enemy is already partially developed, so no poll here unfortunately.

• More repeat dialogues in events. Characters will stop having short term memory loss!

• More dialogue in the Cathedral and with Leona. I plan to eventually add ways for party members to converse with one another more easily as well, but this is a start.

• General touchups for several images. Many of the pictures I generated earlier in development are looking a bit outdated at this point, so I plan on doing a pass on most of the images in the game. Those who participated in the playtest may have already noticed changes to some of Aria's stages and with the enemies in the Penitentiary.

Following that, I'll probably start polling about what people want to see in terms of how events and enemies are added, along with what the third layer is going to look like. However, I expect for the next major update following the aforementioned one above to primarily focus on the implementation of a new party member. The identity of this party member has also already been determined by me, but future party members will be decided by content polls here on Patreon.
