Hey! I am here to announce that today I'll be dropping 0.1.9. It's basically 0.2 but with a few missing elements. However, there is some caveats.
Caveat 1: New Tiers starting next month
From next month on, the 0.x.x builds will be for $10 patreons only. This is a transition period where I feel guilty for just dropping that on you all, so 0.1.9 will be public for the rest of this month. $5 patrons will still get to play the more complete 0.x builds and 0.2 should release before June, so if you don't want to spend any extra you can just continue playing the $5 build by then and have the same experience. I'm trying to do this transition gracefully.
Caveat 2: It's not finished
This new strategy is to seperate between finished and unfinished builds. 0.2 needs a lot of writing still and I'm just not getting it done in time. I feel you've all waited long enough, but that does mean that this build is slightly unfinished. The unfinished parts are mostly the new company events, like movie castings etc. I advice you to not do these, but you can have a look if you want to see what's there so far. Just expect lots of dead ends so perhaps save your game before you do so.
That's it
That's all! I just want you all to play this and see what I've done so far. I've made so many massive changes and it's becoming a little depressing not getting to share it with my community so instead of having to write for a few more weeks without that motivation, I'm hoping to get some positive feedback and get enthused again!
NEW LINK
The 0.x.x builds will be available at the following link:
https://verkniptegeest.itch.io/maih2dev
Password: LAplay
Once again for good measure: The password will be changed on the first of june and the 0.x.x builds will only be available to $10 and up patrons from then on. But I think 0.2 should definitely be done by then so it's not like you'll have to go back to the 0.1.4 build :)
Please do let me know what you think of the new features, story and company mechanics! I'm scared and excited to share this new direction with you all. I'm honestly really proud of it and I hope others like it just as much.
Thanks for the continued support and I'm hoping to talk to you all in the comments below.
