V0.7 progress status


I hope everyone is all right? Over the last few weeks, I've been working on the new version of the game, the one I mentioned earlier, with a number of improvements I've been meaning to make for some time. I'm happy to say that most of it is done. Some changes were easy to make, others were more complicated than expected, but in the end, I've got the result I wanted.
To be more explicit, this new version will have:
 
- Better graphics for chapters 1 and 2. I've corrected the worst of my beginner's mistakes. The quality is now closer to what you get in the most recent chapter.
 
- I've also changed the opening menu, and the option menu. You can see both in the images attached to this post. And yes, the opening menu is the same one I used here recently, I thought it was much better than the previous one I used, so I decided to change it.
 
- There's also a gallery menu now, so you can replay the previous H-scene you've seen.
 
- A new conversation at the end of Chapter 4 with Theresa, so the MC can ask several questions about the Prime Minister and her background. I've tried to add the same questions I've seen a few times here and there, but if you want to see more, well... the comments section is there for you.
 
- There's also the option, when you start a new game, to jump straight to the part where you have to select the heroine you want to romance. Obviously, I wouldn't recommend this option to anyone who hasn't played the first part of the game. It's for people who have chosen a specific route, who haven't saved before, and who don't want to start at the beginning to see a new heroine's route.
 
- I thought about adding something at the beginning to clarify what kind of game it is, what to expect, that sort of thing. It seemed to me that some people were a bit confused by the fact that there was a different path for each heroine. In the end, I didn't. When I tried to add it, I thought after experimenting that the beginning was becoming a little too heavy, especially with the addition of the previous point. So this element has been cancelled for the time being.
 
Now what? As much as I'd like to publish this new version now, there's one point missing, the orthography and grammar corrections. I'm not the one working on it, and the person helping me needs a little more time. So... no choice but to wait. The good news is that I can concentrate entirely on the new chapter, the one centered on Saki's story. Next time, I'll probably give some news about that.

See you soon!
