The changelog is kind of hazy since it's been so long, but here's what I can say confidently is new:
-A little new story content. It's not super complete, but it's playable through to a checkpoint of sorts. I'll be going through and touching it up for the next build.
-A new non-story area that contains a bit of loot and some enemies. Not necessary to progress through, but it could be useful to get a bit of extra money and XP if someone is having trouble. (The game is designed and tested so that grinding won't ever be necessary, but I feel that it's good to have the option if people want to do so)
-Speaking of difficulty, a new option in the menu to set the difficulty. It's a bit experimental and might be buggy, but there's five options to choose from: Story, Easy, Normal, Hard, and Impossible. You can change it at any time, so experiment to see which is the best fit for your play style.
-Side missions are working correctly now, and some of the people in the castle will offer missions if you talk to them. I'll be adding more missions as the game progresses.
-Some new types of recruitable enemies, which have their own classes and abilities to make use of.
-Probably other minor stuff that I'm not remembering offhand
The plan going forward is to first of all finish the chunk of plot that the game leaves off in the middle of, and a more climactic ending to the section. The tentative goal then is to do the next major release within 3-4 weeks, if I'm able to do so, when I'm more confident in labeling it 0.3.3 proper.
On the business side of things: As some of you may have noticed, I changed the patreon from charging per month to per major game release. The main reason being I'm simply not comfortable taking in money for a month where I didn't release anything. In the ideal situation, I'd get out one release per month anyway, but obviously life happened and I wound up disappearing for awhile. I very much appreciate everyone who's contributed so far, and I'm intending to release something that's worthy of those contributions. That said, Dragonfall is, and always will be, completely free to play. Nobody should feel obligated to pay for it.
Questions, comments, concerns, and other constructive feedback are always welcome. Thanks for playing!
Game is bugging out for me after the Experiment fight; party members are blocking the stairs so I can't leave, then its a game over after the minute is up.
ReplyDeleteI also seem to be able to pick up multiple consortium notes from the bookshelf.
DeleteFrom what you've described there, it doesn't sound like a bug. You aren't supposed to be able to leave via the stairs at that point; instead, search around the room for the research notes and you should be able to proceed from there. That said, I did just adjust some of the dialogue to hopefully make it a bit clearer that that's what you're supposed to do at that point.
Delete(Also, just fixed the multiple notes bug. Thanks for the report.)
I know I'm supposed to get the notes and leave, but I can't; the stairs and the other exit are blocked by npc's left over from the talk before the fight, and I can't walk past them.
