Act VIII+ public release
🕑 Added 2021-09-06 05:41:58 +0000 UTCI finally finished Act VIII+ last night, and the Discord testing team has been on it since then.
I usually leapfrog development; Act VIII was a core story update (advancing the ingame calendar and building the game's core narrative), while Act+ updates expand on the world, and build new functionality. This one did a bit of both.
I ripped out a lot of the Edinburgh content when I started Book 2, and it felt empty and unloved. For Act VIII+'s update, my initial goal was to fix that, bringing life back to places like the University, the bookstore, the Crowley and of course Jenny.
Along the way I decided to put my dreams of a larger strategic battle system into play, which derailed me a little. And once I started writing and rendering Jenny... it became a little hard to stop. So you're getting (a lot) more Jenny than planned.
Apart from that, the computer's gotten an overhaul, and with that comes new Facial content, new things to buy and a new outfit for Chloe. Booker's still working at the University, and has some lessons for you, Diana has a new book, and Jenny has an itch to scratch. I still want to write more 'drinking in the pub' sequences for the Crowley, but that can wait for another time.
Changelog (0.2.5b->0.2.21b) is included, and here are the non-Steam mirrors for everyone who prefers that:
WIN32: GOFILE - MEGA - MIXDROP - NOPY - UPLOADHAVEN
WIN64: MIXDROP - NOPY - UPLOADHAVEN - MEGA
OSX: GOFILE - MEGA - MIXDROP - NOPY - UPLOADHAVEN
LINUX: GOFILE - MEGA - MIXDROP - NOPY - UPLOADHAVEN
The Android APK is currently 2.1GB, which is over the 2GB hard limit that Google imposes on apps. I'll need to work out a system for downloading additional content on the fly, host that somewhere and rebuild. It's on my task-list.
Hope you enjoy the update, and with that complete I'm getting back onto Act IX: The Army of Life.
Edit: Fixed up with a correct ZIP archive for win64
