Update Info v0.2.8 | "Funky"
Added 2022-09-11 16:10:07 +0000 UTCUpdate 0.2.8 was just released right now and because the posts over the last weeks were a bit short I wanted to talk about this update a little bit more right now.
I promised to keep the release posts clean, simple and spoiler free, therefore I put this into a separate post.
First and foremost an improvement to the environment around the home of our MC. Something a lot of you will wonder why I'm talking about such a small detail, but it's one I spent a lot of time with and am extremely happy how it turned out.
I'm talking about the skyline at the horizon of the neighborhood, the city in the background.

Before the background did not look great...

which bothered me, because I want to build up a world in my game and the feeling of the MC living in the outskirts of a great modern city was never transported in the renders. Now that's the case and I think it's beautiful. What do you think?
The second thing I want to talk about is a character I made some changes to. not visually, but in the dialog. It's Nancy I'm talking about.
She was always meant as the happy, funky carefree character who doesn't let any negativity touch her. Someone who hugs you no matter what XD
After I wrote the 300+ lines of dialog for her scene in this update I was sitting there looking at it and just thought: This is not it! This is not what I had in mind.
And then I rewrote everything but not only that but also made some changes to the existing scenes of previous updates. All scenes at the Gym including Nancy. Because I noticed that I already missed the mark with her in the past and made her too negative, snarky and reproachful in the past. Therefore I changed that too but without changing the story!
Again, tell me what you think!
And now go and download this update and have fun!

It's always good to see a game shaping up more and more as the dev originally envisioned. This shows how much you are invested in the project. So keep up the great work! Love the changes by the way (I'm judging by reading your post, I haven't played it yet).
