| "Legend of Merchant 2" is still gathering wishlists. | 2026-03-06 | The wishlist count is just too low. A game with no wishlists is almost like disappearing into the void as soon as it launches. That's why it's so important to build up enough wishlists beforehand. |
| My game "Legend of Merchant 2" demo is now available. | 2024-10-15 | I hope you can give it a try and add it to your wishlist. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2092160 |
| My new game "Legend of Merchant 2" has launched its store page. | 2024-06-11 | Whether you plan to buy in the future or not, adding the game to your wishlist is a form of support for the developer. As a solo game developer, I'm still on my own, but this time I'm investing a significant amount of funds into the creation of art resources. However, the game won't be available for sale immediately. Before that, I will open a demo version for everyone to experience as soon as possible. Please add it to your wishlist! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2092160/ |
| Next discount will be on November 4, 2021 at 10:00 AM PST | 2021-10-22 | Let you know in advance so that you can make purchasing arrangements. 30% off. |
| The game is out of EA | 2021-07-09 | Although it is leaving EA today, the content was actually fully developed back in February last year and there have been no subsequent updates. The main reason for this is that it took time to go through the government procedures, and I would have liked to leave sooner. I've never had any big ambitions, I just want to keep doing what I love. I've been able to develop games for the past few years, thanks to your love, of course. Nowadays, many professional teams are developing single-player games and amateurs have to stand aside. Many people finish their games and no one sees them on the shelves, so they immediately sink into the STEAM databas |
| Words from the developer | 2021-06-13 | 【The following content is from translation software.】 I actually hate to write a detailed description of my game myself, as I'd rather players experience it for themselves. I'm bound to create spoilers, but I wanted to write about it anyway. If you do feel this way after playing it, then we're in the know. If not, that's fine, I probably just did a lousy job. No need to praise my game either, it does have minimal features and minimal content, but it does have some depth to it. First of all it's not a cheeky game, it contains some harsh real-life issues. I am trying to show the main idea that through personal effort one can escape from sufferi |
| Legend of Homebody Game Tutorial for Beginners | 2021-06-05 | I have recorded a tutorial for newbies, but I only speak Chinese. But I have added English subtitles, so hopefully that will help. For those in China, you can just watch the beginner's tutorial uploaded on the shop page. 国内的朋友们可以直接看商店页面的第二个视频即可。 |
| The game will be released from EA after the summer sale | 2021-06-02 | Because if it's released before, I won't be able to participate in the sale. The game will be on sale at the Indie Live Expo 2021 sale and the Summer Sale, so you can wait for the sale before buying the game. 游戏将在夏季特卖结束后脱离EA，因为如果现在脱离，我就没法参加特卖。 游戏很快在之后的 Indie Live Expo 2021 特卖和夏季特卖中打折，可以等折扣时再购买游戏。 |
| Simplified Chinese added back. | 2021-05-25 | 简中添加回去了，游戏有一些无关紧要的小调整。 会选个日子脱离EA，也算这个游戏完全终结。 但并不代表我游戏制作生活的终结，下一个新游戏估计要很久以后了。毕竟能好玩的游戏，短时间是不可能做出来的。 Will choose a day out of EA, also calculate the end of the game. But it doesn't mean the end of my game making life. The next new game will be a long time later. After all, it is impossible to make a fun game in a short time. |
| The game has been updated STEAM achievements | 2021-02-10 | Achievements are the same as those built into the game, and as long as they have been reached before, you can automatically get them on STEAM by opening the game. The game was fully completed last year and could not be released from EA because it was going through the China publishing process. Finally, I wish you all the best for the new year. |
| The game is finally available in English! | 2021-01-09 | I asked a friend on the internet to help me with the translation (not professional), because I didn't want to pay for a professional translation, the cost was too high. It did take a long time, as it was all done by friends in their spare time and there was no way to confirm when the translation would be finished. The game looks light-hearted but is in fact very serious, and the normal mode in it contains some of my views on society. I don't know if foreigners can relate to me and understand my thoughts. I do wonder what kind of experience foreigners will have with this kind of story. If you have any experience, I would be happy to know. The |
| 因要申请版号，简中版本暂时不公开。 | 2020-08-04 | 出版局要求申请期间不能提供简体中文版本，只能暂时关了，等申请完了再恢复。 有任何疑问可以进抠抠群：959402742 你懂的。 |
| V0.991更新 | 2020-05-02 | 1.普通模式第二个角色初始压力值降到10%。 2.压力过大的竖杠放在了UI后面。 3.漫画连载的题材解锁加一个便捷按钮，不然很多人不知道去哪解锁，以为有问题。 4.调整若干UI，因为英语很长。 5.增加了英语语言选择，但是还没有翻译完，仅部分。 6.可能还调整了什么，我忘了。 |
| V0.984更新 | 2020-02-25 | 1.漫画脚本可以分开一直写了，不用一次脚本一次绘画间隔完成。 2.西瓜按钮增加自动睡觉。 3.主菜单成就感叹号提示精确到角色上。 4.小部分数值修改。 声明：游戏已经基本完成，后续若有更新都不会有很大变化。 |
| V0.972版本更新 | 2020-01-30 | 1.附加模式增加2个角色，应该是脱离EA前的最后两个角色了。脱离以后还加不加难说，话也不能说太死。反正现在的状态已经是完成了。 2.调整若干UI大小，方便英语翻译。 声明：游戏已经基本完成了，目前是在等待英文翻译，翻译结束就会脱离EA。文字较多，也没钱找专业机构，都是找的朋友翻译的，速度会很慢。国外的一位朋友最近联系不上了，也不知道啥时候能搞定，我也愁呀。 |
| V0.933版本更新 | 2020-01-14 | 1.增加最后一种附加模式，该模式可以做不同限制的人物挑战。 再次声明游戏已经基本全部完成，目前是在等英语翻译，英语翻译好就会脱离EA了。 |
| 遊戲新增了繁體中文！ | 2019-12-25 | 在主介面右上方按鈕更改語言。 我用的網頁翻譯工具，可能會有些翻譯錯誤，有問題可以留言或者發郵件。 免費試玩版也更新了語言。 |
| V0.901更新 第三个角色完成了！ | 2019-12-20 | 1.第三个角色普通模式完成。如果有任何BUG或疑问，请联系我。 2.BGM统一缩小音量。 3.彩票改成五位数，奖金售价都调低了。 基本游戏上算全部完成了，之后会开始弄翻译。如果有能看懂中文且英语是母语的人愿意帮忙翻译中文-英文的可以联系我。 |
| V0.835更新 | 2019-12-08 | 1. 增加音乐创作功能：罐头音乐，音乐专辑。工作部分的功能已经全部开发完毕。 2. 新增音乐比赛。 3. UI调整，方便以后翻译英文。 |
| 集换式卡牌开启掉落了 | 2019-11-17 | 集换式卡牌为STEAM平台的特殊奖励，收集卡牌可用于徽章升级，不需要卡牌也可以上架出售给别人。 徽章如下，西瓜是闪亮徽章。 |
| V0.823更新 游戏场景有背景了！ | 2019-11-15 | 1.游戏场景的背景添加。程序不难，主要一直找不到合适的人画，总算是完成，大部分美术都已经完成了。 2.在角色2压力说明里添加竖条的说明。 3.优化部分文字显示。 |
| V0.812更新 | 2019-11-07 | 1.装入第三个角色，普通模式还没开工。 2.优化UI显示，去掉了原来的延迟。 3.放大了右侧信息栏文字，原来窗口化因为字体太小会模糊。 女角色玩着玩着出现竖杠是因为角色压力过大而制作的视觉效果，表达了一个人因为压力大而无法正常生活的情况，并不是游戏出现问题了，也不是你电脑屏幕坏了。虽然有竖杠，但是并不会妨碍点击，压力降低后，竖杠也会消失。 有任何问题可以加测试群：959402742 带上暗号：测试 发行商务或者想咨询如何制作游戏的人就不要加了，真的是找错地方，群就是专门给玩家用的。 |
| V0.776更新 修复一个重要BUG | 2019-10-22 | 因为加了新功能影响了之前的代码，幸好一个玩家发现及时告诉了我。 |
| 第二个角色总算做完了。V0.775更新。 | 2019-10-21 | 1.第二个角色点击电脑，多一个“网络相亲”选项。 这个功能老实说不影响游戏性，做起来也麻烦，但是还是做了，为了表达一些现实问题。恐怕跟各位想象的模拟相亲不同，这就是一个特定的剧情对话。 如果有任何BUG可以到扣扣群里找我：959402742 |
| V0.73更新 | 2019-09-12 | 1.西瓜按钮新增一个自动存档功能，可以自己选择开启或关闭。 2.少许数值修改。 |
| V0.723更新【哇，过了好久了 | 2019-08-29 | 1.现在鼠标双击可以直接食用，购买食物了。【不想买饭的，西瓜按钮里有套餐计划用。 2.修改了若干数值。 3.第二个角色普通模式可以进了，但是还差一个功能没做完，正在编对话。 公开出来还是因为没人测试，没法调整难度。如果有人遇到BUG或者想要反馈难度情况，请加抠抠群：959402742 入群写明：测试 等背景画好就能有集换式卡牌了，主要还是在等背景。 |
| 汇报一下最近的情况，别说我跑路了。 | 2019-05-29 | 人肯定还在的，只是做的特别慢，因为没想好之前我都基本不会动。 背景也没找到合适的人画，想找个Q版熟手来画，但很难找，有工作的都加班不愿意接外包，没工作的又没有经验，只能搁置延后了。 目前游戏是EA状态，没有完成的，我也不知道为啥有人以为游戏做完了，页面不是写了抢先体验吗？ https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33228587/4ec3aa5bdeff519b2a134d1a1a956f7afde11669.jpg 现在购买游戏算是提前支持我吧，目前游戏第一个人物玩起来也没任何问题。要等游戏全做完再买也没关系，这是正常的啊。 另外之前帮我测试游戏的人都玩腻了，目前又没人测了，如果想帮我测试游戏，可以加扣扣群：959402742 加的时候写清楚是测试，不想加一堆推销广告进来。 |
| 更新至V0.684 | 2019-03-18 | 1.加入一个游戏制作活动。 2.加入花钱自动补充饱食得便捷功能，在西瓜按钮里。 3.调整了一下收入的计算规则。 4.装入第二个角色资源，但是还没做普通模式。 接下来就是做第二个角色的普通模式内容。 集换式卡牌肯定会有，我还在等人画背景，画好了就能出。 |
| 编程功能更新到默认分支了 | 2019-03-10 | 1.加入编程功能（做游戏）。 2.加入一个测试用的高属性模式。 最近忙着办公事，游戏更新慢了一些。 新功能还是会先放到测试分支，凑够一定数量并且稳定以后再一起更新到默认分支上。 |
| 编程功能加入到测试分支了 | 2019-02-17 | 游戏遇到BUG或者想要帮助测试得朋友可以加入抠抠群:959402742 测试分支进入办法: 每次游戏最新功能会放在测试分支上 点库-游戏名-鼠标右键-属性-测试-输入代码-选择加入测试 代码为 123456654321 如果想保留非测试分支的存档，请自己先备份一下游戏安装文件夹里所有.sav文件。之后进入分支再把文件粘贴到相同位置就行了。 |
