An Update on the Next Version


Hello folks! Just giving an update on where the next update stands right now. My intention was to release the next version as 1.0, but I am considering the next version may be 0.9.1 instead because I have slightly expanded the scope of what I want to achieve with 1.0 and because of another issue I am trying to deal with. There's some new stuff I've added and it is getting dangerously close to the 1GB upload limit on itch. I am trying to get my itch upload limit raised a bit so I can include all the new stuff in 1.0 in one convenient download, so I want to see how quickly I can get that done, or if I can get it done. Also, 1.0 might take slightly longer because I am considering adding optional voice acting for the male characters as well!

Here's what's gotten done so far:

- Subtly changed some of the narration text to fit better with the visuals during spicy scenes.

- Added a replay gallery to the main menu so you can now conveniently view any spicy scenes you've already seen.

- Added new CG variations to most of the scenes.

- Fixed little art issues in almost every scene.

- Added a couple missing voice lines.

- Corrected a bunch of typos.

- Added the choice to avoid Lysandra interacting with furry creatures, so the player doesn't have to see that if it's not their thing.

Here's what I still want to do:

- Add voice acting for the main male goblin characters (Chief Zak'arug, The Shaman, Sack Humper and Hobglob)

- Add the option to mute male voice acting at the start and in preferences so people do not have to hear it if they don't want.

- Add a nicer looking ending and credits sequence.

I am considering whether to release the next version as 0.9.1 with what I've gotten done so far (if it will fit in the upload limit), skip it and finish 1.0 or drop the male voice acting from 1.0 and release 1.0 more quickly.  I really just need to see how things go with the upload limit and see how feasible adding mutable male voice acting for the male characters is before I make my decision.

So that's where I am right now; just figuring out how to finally finish this VN in its final form. Thank you for bearing with me all this time, guys. We're nearly there now! I can't wait to finish "Lysandra and the Goblins" and share my plans for my next VN with all you lovely people!
