😈 Naughty Neighbours β€” A Little Itch.io Update!


Just a quick heads-up for everyone, especially those of you who occasionally visit the Naughty Neighbours page on itch.io!
You might have noticed that the free download has disappeared! πŸ‘€
Don't panic! I haven't packed up my DAZ characters, unplugged my graphics card and run off to live on a tropical island. πŸ˜‚
Naughty Neighbours is still very much in development!
I've decided to temporarily remove the free download because I'm looking at putting together a smaller, standalone teaser version of the game.
The idea is to give new players a proper introduction to Naughty Neighbours, its characters and the world they're about to get themselves tangled up in, without giving away quite so much of the story for free.
At the moment, I'm thinking the teaser might include the introduction and part of Monday from Week One, but I haven't made a final decision on exactly where it should end.
Hopefully, it'll give newcomers just enough time to get to know everyone, become invested in the story and think, "Hang on, I want to know what happens next!" 😈
And with a bit of luck, some of those players might decide to support the ongoing development too!
It'll probably take me a couple of weeks to separate the relevant content from the existing game, make any necessary adjustments and turn it into a proper standalone experience.
I'll be fitting that work around the usual development schedule, so the main game remains my priority.
In the meantime, if you visit itch.io and wonder where the download has gone, don't worry β€” nothing has happened to the project! It's simply getting a little makeover.
As always, a massive thank you to everyone supporting Naughty Neighbours. You're the reason I can keep creating new content, developing the story and finding new ways to introduce more people to our wonderfully naughty little world.
I'll keep you posted as the teaser takes shape!
Thanks for your support, and stay naughty! 😈
