Identity - Update a.12

A new challenger approaches!

Hello once again to this time of the month. Recently a new somebody has been added to our roster. Not in the game, but rather around the game. It's a new writer who goes by the alias Lone Wanderer!

So... what does a new writer added to the project do? I write! I already had the pleasure to occasionally contribute some edits to the game, although it was rather last month's build where you may have noticed a slight difference with how the story was written. You'll be getting more of that. Far more even. I have edited the entirety of the content that was delivered in update point zero one (a.01). That includes the start going through the oak tree path until Garreth takes you to the lobby. There are quite a bit of differences, but the given choices are still the same. It's almost like a new game! :P

In the future we will be going through the existing paths and perhaps change the structure a bit to make choices feel more meaningful.

Remember when I said before, that there wasn't somebody new to our roster of people in the game? Well, I lied about that. This update wouldn't be complete without new content and you will get to meet a new character. Unfortunately because this is more of a teaser, so you won't get to properly interact with them just yet. Reason why the new content is short is because my focus in this first month was more on studying the characters and also working myself through everything that exists so far.

Writing and studying of course aren't the only things that happened, we also have added a couple of pretty backgrounds, crafted by our background artist Weißer Rauch. And our programmer Rriik made some good progress with the Godot port in case you missed the post about the preview.

In the spirit of last month this is a time of change, so your feedback is important here. Whatever has been changed or added here is something that you can reasonably expect the game to look like in the hopefully not so far away future. My focus for this next month will be to add new content, so stay tuned for that!
