Preview 1.55b

Hey guys, we're getting close to the next update release, and this time we have more to talk about, so I'll try to be more direct.

Oliver :

• Writing: 80%

• Video/Photos: 75%

• Editing/Revision: 60%

• Coding: 20%

In this new update for Oliver, you will start to see your choices affecting the story more. Those who played his vanilla route will regognize some characters and situations, but now from another angle and with new scenes.

Another thing I'm focusing on is creating different ways to play the same quest to increase replayability and give players more freedom in how they want to treat Oliver. This is something I've wanted to add for a while to introduce more variety.

Linda:

• Writing: 85%

• Video/Photos: 90%

• Editing/Revision: 80%

• Coding: 45% 

While other characters appear in all routes, Linda's storyline has been more focused on her until now, in this update you'll start to learn more about the other members of her family and how they react when they begin to suspect your relationship with Linda.

I'm also trying something different with her—a quest in two parts. It will function like any other quest but will end in a cliffhanger that will only be resolved in the continuation of her story. However, this won't prevent you from continuing to interact with Linda.

Main Quest:

• Writing: 85%

• Video/Photos: 50%

• Editing/Revision: 50%

• Coding: 25% 

This is why this update is taking a little longer to complete. I had many different ideas and was organizing them to see what would work best. The good news is that I have most of the future updates mapped out, and for now, you'll get plenty of content and new stuff.

As you can see from the preview gifs, Karen and Larry are coming back with more scenes, and you'll learn more about them while working in the game company. I tried some different things, so I would really like to hear your opinions about them.

Tech Stuff:

• As voted in the poll, I'm adding more cheats to the game, like changing the energy level and teleportation, among others.

• There will also be more shortcuts through the map, like going from your bedroom straight to outside and more.

• And also, some things I wanted to do but had forgotten, like having the Oliver painting that he gave you in the cabin event in your bedroom, and Data cat appearing in his garage and outside sometimes.

Release Date:

• I still need to do most of the coding, which is what I usually struggle with the most, but I am planning to finish it by 04/25. If anything happens, I will let you guys know. This update will have way more content than the previous one so i have to check if everything is right.

• Thanks for the support, and always feel free to DM or send a message if you find bugs or just want to chat about the game or something else.
