Hi, everyone, first of all thank you so much for supporting the project and making this game possible.
Now that the demo version is done, I’ve been working on the structure and planning for the 0.2.0 (not including technical items).
Mechanics:
Relationship progression:
In Town's Charm new scenes will be unlocked through a "relationship building" system. You’ll have to interact with characters or perform specific actions to "strengthen" your relationship with them.
Daytime:
This will affect when certain scenes are triggered and when characters are available. For now, the day will be split into: morning, afternoon, and evening.
UI re-design:
The current UI will receive some adjustments and improvements.
Writing:
Claire - second stage scenes script
Claire - third stage scenes script
Jeannette - introduction scenes script
Claire younger daughter - introduction
Art:
More likely:
Claire - default sprites + expressions
Claire - in game
Claire - second stage scenes
Jeannette - introduction scenes
Jeannette - sprites
Jeannette - in game
Main character - in game animation
Less likely:
Claire third stage scenes
Claire younger daughter introduction
This is the general plan for the 0.2.0 update. Of course, things might shift a bit during development, so it might not reflect exactly what ends up in the next release, but this is the initial roadmap I'll be following.
That being said, I’d like to finish the update before the end of the month, but that may vary depending on how fast I can finish some of the stuff.
If you have any questions or thoughts, let me know in the comments! 🐮🐮
