Update January 2021 (Patreon)

Here the update for this month.

As announced in the last update I wanted to use this month to fix and add some basic features in the game. A bit of a boring update admittedly, but very much needed to set the game in the right state to host the next stages and challanges our little heroines will have to tackle~

In case you want more details, here the list of the changes:

•CHECKPOINT: A checkpoint is now created at the boss battle. In case of defeat it is possible to choose if restart from the boss or to replay the whole stage.

•SAVE SYSTEM: It is now possible to save progress. For now I decided to set the saving as an autosave system between stages, provided with icon to inform that the autosave triggered.

•TITLE SCREEN: There is now a wip title screen that allow to start a new game or load a previously saved one. I also made a bit of prep work as I would like to improve the load data screen, but for now the game uses the same loading menu of the previous games.

•HUB CODE IMPROVEMENT: Confession time, the area where entering the first stage was not coded to act as a proper hub. I took care of changing and coding it so that I will be able to update it with the needed events and stages as the game's development progress.

•INVISIBLE WALLS: Actual graphics has been added on the walls surrounding the play area. The walls are still invisible from afar, but when approching them it will become clear that there is a wall. These graphics also change depending the story progress. Some examples have been posted on the patreon's channel on discord a few days ago.

•OTHER MINOR CHANGES: Bug fixing and other minor changes here and there, for example in the intro's last scene Mughara can now be seen for consistency with the story.

That's all for the changes. 

Apart that I also started writing and coding the story scene that triggers after obtaining the first fragment.

I'm not planning to release a build with only these changes as I would prefer to get a little more stuffs into the game, but if you want a new build with these updates let me know and I'll make sure to release it along the month.

This is all for now, as always thanks a lot for supporting Crystal Wish and the girls' adventures!
