[0.2.1-E1]

- Change: Frame rate capped to 60FPS while in pause menus (inventory, reflection, system, etc.)
- Change/Fix: Small touch ups to the inventory interface

[0.0.0-E2] Jan 21nd 2024 [Spectacles, Socks, Tails n’ Tats]
Additions
- The legs, feet and crotch of the player model have been patched up. The player mouth seam has been fixed, and the knee-socks have been remodeled.
- The player idle animation has been updated. I gave the player a confident upright pose. This should give you a better view of your character.
- I’ve added a third outfit option – “Underwear”. We don’t have proper underwear modeled just yet, so for now it will strip you down to your knee-socks.
- Improved the UI responsiveness. Button highlighting and SFX is now present on most buttons.
- Set a more legible color for the positive points on the “FATE counter” and on choices.
- Added visual elements to the player model for the following choices:
- [Kitsukana] now have big floofy tails. I may have to change up how I design outfits so that tailed races are better accommodated.
- [Nyaatsu] now have a tail idle animation. No more wet noodles. I’ll probably try mixing physics with animation when it comes to player movement in game.
- [Bunnjin] now have placeholder ears. Still WIP.
- The [Short-Sighted] choice will now equip glasses to the player (nose pinchers). Additional eyewear options will be introduced in a later patch.
- The [Eat My Wings, Make Me Tame] choice will add a seal to the player back (as depicted in the choice portrait itself). The design of the seal will be cleaned up in a later patch.
- The [Birthday Suit] choice now forces the player out of any worn clothing.
- The [Patches] choice now equips the player with an eyepatch… or two.
- The [Manletus] choice now restricts the player from having anything but the minimum starting height.
Fixes
- Fixed some of visual aberrations which were occurring in the background of the character creator.[0.0.0-E1] Jan 13th 2024 [Unreal Edition]
- First Release
- Version Reset: Following the version reset, our version naming scheme has been updated to improve clarity, and make it easier to track releases. The version name is split into three parts.
- 0.0.0-E1
The first part indicates the public release version number. New experimental builds will match the latest pubic release version rather than having separate versioning. This way it’s clearer which public version experimental releases follow from. - 0.0.0–E1
The second part indicates the version type. We have -A for alpha and -E for experimental releases respectively. - 0.0.0-E1
Finally, we have the sub-version number. This is only present on experimental builds. This number will increment with each experimental release, and reset back to 1 at the start of each public release.
- 0.0.0-E1
