General: • The English version was proofreaded. • A ton of work has been done on the 3D models, Daz and scripts (talked about it on Boosty/Patreon) • WebM Audio Designer (instead of embedding audio I decided to write a script that plays random sounds) • Volume, pan and muting change depending on the distance from the music source (3D audio!) • A helping star that flies toward the fruits, so you don't miss them while reading dialogues. • An ultimate notification manager that shows multiple notifications at once (notes, new friend requests, new messages, character info updates, money change, etc. Really cool shit...) • The choice menu has been updated and now can be controlled with more buttons! Check the "Help" menu. • The "Collection" menu now contains "Gallery" and "Replays" tabs. • Discord Integration (broadcast status to your Discord profile) • Realtime text translator (alpha) • TinyTag library by Tom Wallroth is now used to get length of mp3 files (because Ren'Py can't read mp3 properly) • Ren'Py Sync is now a thing! Transfer save files across your devices. • Garlands with photocards in the Mariya's room. • Some old scenes were reworked. • Save page 20 is now reserved for backups. • News and Discord images are now cached in byte-like objects, removing the necessity to work with folders or request permissions on Android.
Plot: • The plot has been rethought. • Each character has also been revised so now they act more natural.
Smartphone: • Reworked the whole smartphone appearance and created icons for BonBond and BBMusic (BB is now a freaking local brand!) • The ability to respond to comments on your page. • The smartphone can use your Discord profile picture as a profile picture for BonBond. • There're no more icons that show the current time of day. Instead there's a digital time.
Additional: • A nicer and more optimized interface. • A better blur logic for the "~ game scene ~" theme. • A nicer and smoother text shadow. • Also, a lot of work has been done to improve the Ren'Py engine, hehe.
Fixes: • Fixed gestures for mini-games and some other screens. • Other small adjustments...
v0.1.2a
This is alpha release! English version is sill being edited by a proofreader, so for now only my clumsy translation is present in the game :wiggle:
Polishing: • Optimize repeating text blocks in multiple complex screens. • Improve the image prediction system and fix memory leaks. • Add a better version of tooltips. • Update the font file (edit some bad looking letters and add an accent mark). • Rework the gallery GUI. • Game interface hides when something shows up on top of it. • The scene effector now uses Ren'Py camera.
New features: • Completely overhauled the controls in the game. • Global text size scaling. • Textbox background opacity. • Double click or long press (on mobiles) to open images in posts, messages or in the gallery. • A bluelight filter. • Made the game sensitive to muted channels (some scenes based on audio will be shorter) • Made the game more suitable for gamepads. • Scan QR codes with your camera to unlock tracks. • More dialogue choices for different auras (rocker, pop, indie) • Update the park location and fill it with citizens (test) • Create wallpapers from photos saved in albums (additional blackout, blur and parallax settings) • The ability to choose phone notification sounds. • In-game time added. Toggle between IRL and in-game one in the phone settings. • Better environment sounds and audio triggers. • Preview images of save files when hovering over the Continue and Quick Save buttons. • New locations in the house. • Re-render some old scenes to make them logically fit. • Adaptive images for different languages. • Separate effectors for the city map and other scenes to make the transition look smoother. • Variables re-saver for supporting new changes in the game code (pretty much a simple workaround for backward compatibility) • Animated money value change. • Get the name of any currently playing song. • Special smartphone notifications. • A listener that detects whether the player sees a photo or buys/drops/uses an item, etc. • City street names added. • Other many improvements and optimizations...
