Lost in You v0.2 progress update #1

Hi there!

I've been hard at work on the next major update of Lost in You and I'm glad to say I've gotten a lot more work done in this first week than I was expecting. So without further ado, here's what's new in terms of content:

• 98 renders (mostly finished, some subject to change)
• 4 main story events
• 1 Nami event
• 1 Saki event

As you can see, the amount of renders per scene has gone up a bit. We're almost at 1/3rd the total renders that were featured in the initial v0.1 release in just 6 events.

V0.2 will feature a new location teased in the previous update: the school dorms. You'll be able to visit the dorms every day during the evening/at night. The residents will stand outside the dorms on select days allowing you to freely interact with them. On any other day you'll be able to visit them in their rooms, given you have enough affection points for them to let you inside.

Speaking of affection... I've heard some complaints about the requirements for some events and I agree wholeheartedly that some of them could use some tweaking. Once v0.2 content is further along I'll be taking a look at adjusting some of the affection requirements for specific events that would previously require repeating the same events over and over. Expect more on this in a future update.

What's next?

I'll be continuing work on the dorms and adding character events for each resident. That will most likely take up the vast majority of my time for the next week or two. Expect more info about the dorms and who you might find there in a progress update about 2 weeks from now (rough estimate, I'll post the update when I'm done with the dorms content).

The "Encounter" Yume event that had minor tweaks done to it in v0.1.1 will also be getting a significant rewrite as I was not satisfied with it. You won't have to restart your playthrough to experience this new version of the event if you wish to see it, you can simply access it by clicking the event name in Yume's character menu.

Anything else?

Absolutely! On weekend mornings you'll now be able to access your computer where you'll be able to change your character's name and enable cheats if you so desire.

For now, the only cheat available is adjusting your affection and lust with individual characters. Enabling this cheat will show a set of new options in the character menu that will allow you to add pre-defined amounts to either your affection or lust stats, set a custom value or completely reset them.

More cheats will eventually make their way into the game as more content is added. And for those worried about using these cheats affecting your playthrough... don't fret. There is no cheater flag and I have no plans to add one in the future. As much as I want to tell a story and for you to experience it in the way I intended, I also acknowledge that "my way" doesn't suit everyone and I'd rather provide the essential cheats myself than have someone else make a cheat mod that ends up breaking something in a future update (been there, not fun).

That's all folks!

That marks the end of my first progress update. Thank you for your support and I'll see you in the next progress update in a week or two! Or alternatively, you can come talk to me on Discord: https://discord.gg/nGkDW7Ys2w
