| Kali Update + Blinking Sprites! | 2024-02-02 | I hope everyone had a good holiday season! After spending lots of time with family, I've eased back into game development with a relatively simple update. Minor sprite animation has been in the works for some time now, and I hope you guys are as excited as I am to watch the Keepers characters eyes open and shut and open and shut... All of Kali's expressions are now in! The player also now has the opportunity to stay at chat with her a little longer instead of Eva making a break for her next cup of coffee. Look at her, spilling to Eva about her family drama: Full list of changes: added and tested Kali's expressions added new dialogue with Kali |
| Bobbi Expressions Update, Kickstarter is Ongoing! | 2023-10-19 | Hello everyone, exciting news! ALL of Bobbi's expressions are now in the demo! We're also added an extended version of the scene where the player can ask Bobbi to spend the night after the break-in. Nothing steamy goes down, but you will have to set Bobbi's setting to 'Romance' in the Preferences screen in order to see it! The Kickstarter is coming along, though we need a bit more support to see it through. To help out, some friends and family of mine have offered to match every pledge we get until end of day tomorrow, 10/20. Let's see if we can boost the campaign closer to the halfway mark! Full list of changes: added and tested Bobbi's expr |
| Jensen Update and Kickstarter Launch! | 2023-10-07 | Hello everyone! BIG THANKS to everyone who's downloaded the game so far and tried it out! I would love to hear what you think of the demo - there's a link to a survey in-game. Our Kickstarter launched a few days ago!! It would help us with game development tremendously if we could get the game funded now. If you're not able to pledge, there's a social media community goals section! Also, wishlisting on Steam is super helpful. And now for the update: Jensen's sprite got a little upgrade, and all of his expressions are in!! There's a new minor choice at the end of the squirrel scene as well. Other changes: - improved the reddish pain overlay ef |
