The first testing version of v0.07 is ready to be played! Including the new balance changes, the new "Digestion Helper" minigame, improving old hardware support and QoL changes!
v0.07-Unstable-A version is currently available to Patreon members of the $5 tier and above who are in the Vorecade Discord server. Check out this article on how to connect your Discord account with Patreon.
Stat Loss Animation
If your trainee has been churned in a race, she will now have stat and weight loss after being reformed. There's also a training debuff that will apply, but that has been left for the RC version of v0.07.
Digestion Helper Minigame
The new minigame can now be played! It's mostly a weight-gain minigame where you help your trainee digest some meals she caught on her way home. The minigame is still missing some features and mechanics, but the main core gameplay is in.
Race Simulator Changes
The new simulator adds in quite a bit of calculation changes, here are some of them, to be added more in the RC version of v0.07:
Speed Stat Falloff
Speed stat increased your trainee's speed linearly all the way, for every character. Now, it increases linearly up around to 400, and its effect becomes less pronounced.
Effort Noise
Racer AI had distinct states and a basic state logic, causing racers to act robotically. The simulator now incorporates effort noise to make the effort vary over time, instead of locking into a single value over the course of the race.
Stat Synergies
v0.07 Introduces Stat Synergies, a "build" system where hitting certain thresholds activates additional bonuses for your trainee. The UI for it is currently missing, but will be added in the RC version of v0.07.
Improved QoL
Hooked up the right mouse button to also act like the Escape key, dismissing menus and dialogs. Also added in some of the missing navigation to the lobby.
