Developer Diary #9

Hi folks. Here's the detailed roadmap for v0.7. 

The 'head', 'boobs' and 'backdoor' branches are almost integrated in the country club locker room event, making it the most complex interactive scene in the game. If your character is prone to embrace the dark side, the special ending with Michael coming into the scene is a...

What's next!

Hi folks! Release v0.6 was messy and tiresome! Now that it's done, it's time to plan what's next. 

From now on, I'll try to not make the same mistake again. I'll plan smaller and quicker releases because late scenes of the game are becoming more and more complex (with several past choices and stats being used to build ind...

Phew... That was rough, but here it is... 

Be warned that I didn't send this version to the testers because it would delay the release even more. And as the game state handling is becoming more and more complex, bugs might haunt Riverside. I also messed a lot with ALL mini-games code and they might still need work. Ke...

Why does it take so long?

the_architect post Why does it take so long? from patreon

Hi folks! I'm still running trying to catch up with the planned schedule. I know a month is a quite long time to produce content, but my little 'project staff' has some peculiarities. 

Let me write a quick rant about it:

Hi folks. Real life was a mean bitch to me these last days, demanding much more time than usual. Even being able to finish the Lost and Found scene, I'm afraid that now I'm a little behind schedule. I'll try hard to catch up and keep the plan to release v0.6 next weekend.

 Hi folks. Lost and Found scene is almost done (I didn't notice that latest roadmap scene progression values had switched values).

With this progress I'm almost sure we can have v0.6 released in a couple of weeks.

Minigames issues (hopefully) fixed

Hi, folks! Since first versions of HnS2, sometimes I hear people complaining about input issues in mini-games like superfast button mashing and ultrafast mouse movement being required to beat the games. I never intended them to be this way, as all minigames are designed to be somehow easy. Today I discovered a bug that causes th...

the_architect post So... Let's get going! from patreon

Hi folks! I opted to not release a v0.5.1. I already had added some new scripts to the project, content to some free roam areas and some tricky code to solve problems with weird aspect ratio monitors. So I won't risk creating new problems with untested code just to solve a pesky bug. Just be aware of this bug found on v0.5: ...

Hi, folks! As I wrote in the last post, v0.5 will be a shorter and quicker interaction just like v0.3.  Content and new features are already done and it now just needs some more testing.

Version 0.5 roadmap

Hi, folks! I had to stay off the  grid for the last few days but I'm now back on track for version 0.5. 

This version is planned to be somewhat like what I did on v0.3: a smaller but quicker release, with not so much new history content (aftermath and end of day 2) but an important new UI feature (unified gallery). T...

Hi, folks. Development cycle for v0.5 is starting, and the first item I handle is always a UI or system improvement. I'll leave the choice to you.

The cheat console !

Hi folks! Some people like only to explore game content not caring much about gameplay and story spoilers. In short: playing with cheats. I've seen some people even using mods to enable cheats.

Well... This might break a lot of the fun, but you actually don't need mods for that! Since v0.3 there's a hidden che...

Actions and consequences

the_architect post Actions and consequences from patreon

Hack'n Stalk 1 is quite a short game, so it doesn't have much time to show a lot of consequences for your actions beyond the game progress itself (most are in the final chapter or in the endings). I'm trying to work on this in Hack'n Stalk 2.0. 

Some actions in day 1 will be remembered and they can lead to different oppor...
