First update after Fuchian Chronicles’ story officially concluded! If you follow my social media (@ShenTzuGames on X/Twitter, u/ShenTzuGames on Reddit), you’ll see that I’ve been much more active in posting stuff from the game. Now that development of the game proper is winding down, I have more time for these things and making more promotional material, so look forward to those!
That’s not to say there aren’t changes to the game in the works. For starters:
Character profiles! They’re mostly done now and I will be/have been sharing them over time on my X/Twitter. Not every named character will have one, but I did make one for most recurring characters, as well as a few of the important ones. That said… you may have noticed who the profile is of: Fitz!
I originally didn’t have much planned for Fitz, and even planned to kill him off in Chapter 2 (hint: he can still die there depending on your actions!). But he got a bigger role as a development went on, and even became a temporary party member in certain points. With that in mind, I decided it was time he finally got his own portraits for all his appearances. I’ll also be expanding his introduction in Chapter 1 where he was basically another no-face NPC, and may expand his appearances in other chapters too.
Other parts of the game are slated for tweaking as well, one of them being increasing the number of autosave/quicksave slots from 1 to 3. That’s already finished, but I haven’t uploaded the change yet because IT WILL RENDER THE FIRST FOUR (4) SLOTS INACCESSIBLE. This means that if you have any manual saves in slots 1-4, THEY WILL BE OVERWRITTEN. So if you’re in the middle of the game, please make a manual save in one of the later save slots (slot 10 or higher to be safe). The plan is to publish this change when Fuchian Chronicles comes out of Early Access, but if you guys would like, I can publish this change earlier along with what I have finished. Let me know if that’s something you’d like, and I’ll make a small post warning you guys if I push the update early.
That’s it for this update! As always, please let me know if you encounter any bugs and I’ll fix them asap. I would also like to ask for another favour: please consider writing a review for Fuchian Chronicles! It would really help with the algorithm, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on the game, both positive and negative. Thank you once again for all your support, and I hope you like my game!
