v0.7.1 Supporter Release

Time for our mid-month update, and this time we've got the first in-game appearance of one of our main antagonist characters! As with doing anything for the first time, there were a few mechanical issues to sort out - in particular, dealing with the fact that these characters are gender-flexible yet gender preferences can be changed at any time. In the end I went with a system for locking a character in to the preferences you have at the time you first encounter them, so heads up, make sure you have your preferences as you want them before proceeding with the storylines! There was also a lot of duty assignment work in this update, as well as some further updates to the crew promotion system. You can check out the details here, or the patch notes below:


v0.7.1 Change Log

Game Functions:

  • Functionality added to support portraits and text switches for GPU Leaders. Note: Leaders from non-monogendered species will adjust in form to match your recruitment preference settings at the time of their first appearance in-game. It is recommended to make sure that your preferences are set to what you wish before proceeding with storylines and locking them in.
  • Duty Assignment slots will now display the career track logo matching the requirement for that slot.

Scene Content:

  • Second Choker scene added, unlocked 60 hours after the first scene.
  • First Admiral Clausen scene added, unlocked following heist/ship raid scene.
  • Watch Station Preferences Update scene updated to include warning notice about dynamic storyline characters.

Bug Fixes:

  • Corrected Crew Promotions so that they will now add the additional number of character traits and stat points a higher ranked crewmember should have. Check has been added which should automatically apply updates to characters promoted in v0.7.0.
  • Corrected a layering issue on the Cheats screen.
  • Added missing relationship change chance flag in Choker Fight scene.

Hey all, it's monthly update time! v0.6.0 is now up for the public at the usual itch.io page, and v0.7.0 is now available for patrons! This was a pretty short update cycle, so the main focus for this one was on implementing crewmember promotions. For the upcoming month my plan is to focus pretty heavily on writing for the various Harian plotlines, and a bit of Choker content is already in progress. For more info you can check out the Patreon post here, or the patch notes below. Enjoy!
