THE INN CH2 1.02.01 - DEVLOG 1!

Hey everyone!

I’m doing fine and hope you’re all doing well too!

So, as you may have noticed, the last update (1.01.05) wrapped up the Back to the Countryside part of the story. I know it ended in a weird way — but trust me, it had to be like that.

Right now, I’m working on the next “episode” (if you can call it that), which is 1.02. This update will feature the return of the trio — Joana, Luana, and Valentina — plus Livya (the cop lady).

I haven’t done much on the technical side of the game yet. Most of my time has been spent working on dialogue and scene crafting for this update so far.

I’ve also been going through a bit of a creative block lately and struggling to get things done. It’s taking a lot of work to make the dialogue feel legit and the scenes look good — but I’m getting there!

📌 What’s Planned for This Update

My goal for this update is to move the story up to the point where the mansion renovation is finally complete. There’s not much to tell during the renovation itself, so there will be a short time skip — and maybe even a “Cool Training Montage” or something like that (still undecided).

⚠️ Important: Save Rollback Required

One thing that took me a fair bit of time this update was figuring out a way to make the transition from 1.01.05 to 1.02.01 feel smooth and seamless.

Unfortunately, there was no way to do that without requiring a bit of save rollback.

🔁 If you played 1.01.05 all the way through and reached the WIP screen, you’ll need to roll back a few saves.
Preferably to a point before you enter Linda’s bedroom.
Everything should run smoothly from that point on.

I know that’s not ideal (it doesn’t sit well with me either), but... it is what it is.

🔔 Notification Pop-up Improvements

Another improvement in this update is to the Notification Pop-ups!

I’ve consolidated all notifications for a character into a single notification frame. This should help reduce the notification flood (especially during sex scenes).

Here’s what the new pop-up looks like:

(Insert screenshot here)

📣 That’s All for Now!

Anyway, I guess that’s it for this devlog — there’s really not much more to talk about for now.

Thanks for your patience and support!
