UPDATE NOTE: To upgrade to the latest version, start the game and apply the patch when prompted on the main menu. It will update automatically

Next / Future updates

Gym level
Tutorial
Fixing the score system. It's probably no secret that it's been broken for the last few versions). Since I shifted the mechanics to be more focused on not getting spotted, the current score system which emphases combos and speed isn't going to work
More weapons: throwing knives, drill, chainsaw. High scores will unlock new weapons

0.2.7

Note: the costumes and doll mode only need to be unlocked once. You'll have access to all costumes and weapons if you unlock them and quit the game

Opening Credits Sequence
Lots of new video fomats and crt settings
Radar showing you where to go when outside. I'm not sure if this will stay, or I'll upgrade to a full minimap down the line
Fixed the slowdown issue which mostly effected the house levels
You can change costumes in the costume menu by pressing Z. Try to collect them all
Doll Mode: You can unlock doll mode by collecting all the dolls outside
Major behind the scenes code changes. Rewrote a lot of character stuff to support costume changing and handle things correctly, plus implementing a better progress tracking system and major code restructuring to support some of the new features. Refactoring a lot of the quick and dirty code used for sake of hitting the deadline last month.
Fixed the 'Caught' camera. It should be dynamically placed now and not clip the walls
Lots of other small changes you probably won't notice, but I needed to do to move the project forward

0.2.6

Cheat menu - you can skip to any level in the game. Press = to bring up the menu
Added a double speed fast forward (press T)
Subdivided Trees so they're more stable
Police will enter their cars on the map
The Police can now die
The telephone poles have colliders now
The nurse corpses no long wig out when you touch them
You can't see through walls in first person
dialogue size fixed in first person (it should be more readable now)
reduced audio quality to be more like vhs
fixed a bug in the patching system so the patches are actually applied to the game

0.2.5

Patching! You should no long need to download full builds from patreon. Whenever you launch the game you'll be able to install the latest update
Added a main menu
Reduced the build size to under 300mb
More fixes are coming after this but I first wanted to get the patching system functional

0.2.3

Fixed a bug with the triggers not allowing you to enter the houses.
In the next update I'm going to work on a patching system, so the full game no longer needs to be downloaded for every update. Patching is long overdue

0.2.2 - More fixes

Fixed the weapon range and reliability in all levels
Fasting Crouch Walking
Camera Sensitivity and Smoothing Options
Made Larry slight smaller so it's easier to maneuver
Various level design improvements
Victims can open the door to escape from the store
Improved first person camera - larry's body doesn't glitch out when looking down
Improved third person transparency - no long transparent when peaking around a corner
Fixed the 'victims warping' glitch
Bathroom doors no longer spin all the way around

0.2.1 - Bug fixes and improvements

Slowed down the victim's run speed a bit. You should be able to chase them down easier now, but there will still be some challenge.
You can stab the victims normally, even when they're crawling
Fixed the police bug - they can catch you now
Mouse works on the menu
F2 can restart the level if you can't catch someone (don't need to wait for the caught cutscene)

After the big Blood Maniac update, I'll be taking a little break and finishing up that found footage game :)

But my main goal for February is actually the steam release for Stay out of the House

I'm also going to be doing a new collection next month called 'Unfinished Worlds' where I dump random unfinished projects and experiments so you can check out the art and screw around.
