Public Release 0.0020: General Update


Woah, only two weeks and already a new update, crazy!!!

I've decided to give y'all an Easter treat, so I'm releasing this update a little earlier than planned. Hopefully I managed to find all the bugs...

Now, progress update! I've written a total of 5 new endings, 4 for Aoi's story route and 1 for Lisa's secret trigger route. Aoi's route was quite fun to write, join Mahiru is discovering what goes on in Aoi's head, and more importantly, join AOI as she tries to take back control of the situation. So far, I've only written for the Mahiru Doll route, but there are plans (not really) for the Mahiru Bot route :D

Also, I've decided to be particularly evil, and introduce what's commonly known as PERSISTENT VARIABLES.

Once a persistent variables is activated, it remains as so, even if you don't save, even if you start a new route or exit to the main menu. So what does this mean?

It means I can now check if you've gotten an ending, and do stuff with that~
Currently there are only two persistent variables, lisad and aoisus, I wonder how you'll activate those~?

Here's a hint: "What happens if you use Lisa’s trigger when you don’t have the authority to?”

I've designed a toggle in the Preferences menu once you unlock a persistent trigger so you can toggle them on and off, please let me know if it's working!!!
If you've seen the flow chart, you may have noticed a new route at the beginning. I'll let you know now that it's only unlockable once you get the lisad persistent variable. This route takes us not to the factory like all the others, but to Alba and Everes' Mansion. Here we're introduced to her mysterious head maid, Y- oh, I don't want to spoil anything just yet.

ALSO. Have a sneak peak into the designing phase of the visuals. I've enlisted the help of popular hypno artist FabiusTheta, who'll help me design and draw the backgrounds. The VN will be formatted like the image shown here, hopefully I can get to work on that soon. Additionally, you might notice a change in the menu music, and that's because I've received the generous help of Namecantbeblankart (Nameca), who composed the new main menu theme!

If you want to help out, be it with the visuals, story planning or coding, come join my Discord Server! I'm super active, and we don't bite (much).
