It's the "Chapter Two re-release" update...

Hello!

First some apologies. I'm afraid I still behind on admin and I know that's crappy and must make it seem like I don't care (I do!). I have started, promise, but way behind. Not because of idleness, more just other bits and bobs need doing on the game and I keep prioritising that above all else. 

Hopefully, it should calm down a bit once I've shipped the bonus game and Chapter Three in the next couple of weeks. As you'll have noticed if you peeked at Chapter One, the polish on the game is pretty extensive which, of course, takes time.

Speaking of the game, there was a slight last minute panic at Notty Towers today when to my horror I discovered I'd somehow managed to overwrite some code on Two. I've fixed it but it has had a knock on impact in that the gentle day I had planned to squeeze down file sizes and to make the compressed version went out of the window. So the version below is not only the "full fat" version but is a bit fatter than it ought to be. Faced with the choice of putting this version out now and smaller versions next week, or waiting until next week in entirety, I decided to drop this version now and do some proper scrunching for next weekend. Mainly, so you knew it existed and was done.

I say "mainly" but also touching on the compressed versions, my apologies in that seems I missed a line of code in the Chapter One compressed which meant Bored Pilot wouldn't work properly. Sorry about that. I'd tested a lot of the compressed and, with it all seemingly working, got complacent and assumed the rest would to. A lesson there and it's why I feel I can't really rush squishing the files. It'll be corrected as part of the "Two squishing" of course.

So it'll be the compressed versions next week, then the bonus game (which is more fun than I anticipated) the week after and then the two versions of Three the week after that.

Of course, as usual, Patreon is paused until Five is released.

So what's new in Two?

General polish of course, especially around the PDA, but the following are the key differences:

• The powerplant mechanic has been made simpler and clearer.
• Trisha has been completely re-rendered (she looked bloody terrible before)
• VR has had a major buff to underline that this is a game the player is playing in world, together with new animations and tweaking the ending as Vampy has that covered later.
• Annie's lewd got a polish*
• Channel 7 got completely redone for tone and has new content.

I'll crack on and in the meantime, take care of yourself, guys.

* It's a pretty decent and long animation - but it's not what I was after. I'll confess, I got too ambitious and instead of making a really good five minute ani, I aimed for a really good eight minute one. Of course, it turned out to be not that great (too much clipping etc etc) and what I ended up with after a bit of rescue work was a pretty decent four minute animation. Don't get me wrong, it's still better than what we had before and it's a decent piece of work, but....I aimed a bit too high on this one.
