0.1.9, Release Schedule
Added 2021-08-24 20:01:03 +0000 UTCHey!
0.1.9 was initially planned to be released this month, and while I could have released it, it would be unfinished, and unstable. I don't want to release version like this if not necessary. I've recently been looking at popular creators, and I've seen that games like Harem Hotel, or Headmaster get updated every three months or so. I won't be updating every three months, but 0.1.9 will come next month, not in this month.
The thing that slowed my progress on next update is combat rework, this is a major stuff that could have made major release by itself. It's much more complex than it was before. It is made in a way that allows modders to add new cards, and features easily. Actually mechanics I implemented use this system, and are code-wise not different from what mod would do. I believe this to be the highest possible modding support for combat I can implement.
Combat 2.0 was taking A LOT of time, whenever I've thought I'm done, something new came up, like an bottomless pit, waiting to devour my time 😅. I've promised Evercourt for 0.2.0 that's the only reason why next release wouldn't be 0.2.0.
I'm grateful for 80 answers to the previous poll. It seems that sandbox part is more popular, but the story was also given many votes. What does it mean? It means that I'll do more repeatable events for the next release. I want to add often suggested feature to have enemies, and events map based. You will select part of the Asthar to explore, some places more dangerous, some safer.
The last thing is that I will become unemployed soon, I'll lose my job on 3rd September. Before you tell me to stop crying, I want to say I'm telling you this as an announcement. Without job I would have more time to work on Astral Lust. Next month, there will be two releases - 0.1.9, and 0.1.10. And before I find new job, or if I reach full time goal, I'll be aiming for two releases each month. 0.2.0 was delayed by combat 2.0, but it will eventually come.
Below are two concepts for €8+ tier Patrons.
Thank you for support!
Stay sane, be horny, Astral Lust awaits.
