Hi guys!

Version 0.12 will be released before the end of May, please don't worry about that. Last two weeks were extra-tough. Here is the detailed report of what was done and what still needs to be done.

What's done:

1) New animations (GFYCAT video with sound):

FlyBot: https://gfycat.com/PiercingPotableFish

FlyBot x2: https://gfycat.com/ExcitableEvenFishingcat

FlyBot x2 (DP): https://gfycat.com/AmusingRemarkableDoctorfish

FlyBot x3: https://gfycat.com/PettySimplisticHuia

FlyBot x4: https://gfycat.com/GoodGenerousGrunion

FlyBot x5: https://gfycat.com/EvilLegitimateKrill

SBot x2: https://gfycat.com/MenacingPerkyBobolink

SBot x Female Thug: https://gfycat.com/OrangeCapitalBaiji

SBot & FlyBot: https://gfycat.com/ConstantDemandingElephantbeetle

SBot & FlyBot x2: https://gfycat.com/DiscreteNaturalFossa

2) There are two new guns for ver. 0.12:  https://gfycat.com/OrderlyDarlingIberianmole

3) Z, X, V were duplicated to B, N, M keys, C key was duplicated to G key. So keyboard controls are a little bit better now. I made in-game HUD more "intelligent" to free some space on the screen, so it appears when it's needed now. The weapon display panel was improved for a better understanding of what's going on;

4) Mini-game was extended to the sex scene part:  https://gfycat.com/ClassicPoshBumblebee  

There is no an instant-free button now; the speed of winning mini-game is connected to how closer to orgasm Kira is.

5) In-game cutscenes can be played step-by-step by Z/B key now, the same as it was in the prologue. Interlevel cutscenes could be fast-forwarded by holding Z/B button:  https://gfycat.com/IdleMintyEyas 

6) I implemented some special objects that provide temporary cover until the enemy directly confronts the player or alarm is raised:  https://gfycat.com/MagnificentBossyLemur  The player can decrease Kira's visibility by sitting behind them. Also, I implemented a rolling out feature - Kira can roll on the floor by spending all stamina on that move. The sitting position gives a small bonus to the player's visibility now, too.

7) 90% of the game's texts were a little bit altered because of additional proofreading by me. Starrygrail's health condition got worse (wish her well!), so I had to use some specialized software like Grammarly and take some writing recommendations from ULMF.

Comparison of Stage 1.2 size to Stage 1 (which you saw in the public demo) in Unity Editor:

I guess this picture answers the question of why polishing it took a little bit more than I expected :)

So what needs to be done:

1) Vertical/horizontal pipe crawling - it's a must-have feature, and I'm going to implement it tomorrow;

2) Place new enemies on both stages and perform test runs with them;

I missed my initial deadlines pretty hard, so I offer you a poll about what kind of small gameplay compensation I can make for you. It will not take too much time to implement compared to other content, so don't worry that it can delay the build. I will collect the results of the poll on 27 of May for this feature.

Thanks!

So what kind of additional small feature would you like to see in version 0.12 ?
