Hi everyone!
It's time for another big update to Spirittea! This time, we have been working on a big new feature, and a whole host of bugs have been taken care of! Are you ready to go FISHING?
Since our last update, we've been looking at feedback and watching folks play. Something we really wanted to make more engaging was the fishing minigame - so we totally redesigned it! From today, you can play the brand new minigame (complete with new targeting!) or switch in the options to keep the old minigame and play as you have been - it's totally up to you!
The new fishing system comes with a brand new casting bar to make sure you hit your target every time, then dives down under the waves to put you in control of reeling in your latest catch - can you time your fishing just right before your line snaps and you're sent reeling?
Every fish will have some stamina; it's up to you to outlast them, but keep your precious rod in one piece!
Alongside the new fishing, here are some quality-of-life changes & bug fixes we've added:
- You can now toggle how dark it is at night to help you navigate better
- Added a STREAMER MODE in the options to better hide away details about you in Moby's quest
- Fixed a bunch of spooky bugs where some ducks could be deleted unintentionally, or their reflections would sit in baths where they weren't!
- Made it so the big cherry blossom by the bathhouse goes transparent when the player walks behind it (to help with finding sakura blossoms)
- Fixed it so that Spirits no longer leave towels in the unreachable void if you suddenly leave the bathhouse
- Added ice (and icey sounds!!) to the rice paddies in winter
- Fixed bug where karaoke on PC would display correct key bindings but would only accept default inputs
- Added ability to change the text finished sound or to remove it completely
- Added floor and ceiling brooms to Song's shop. Change the camera, repair kit, retro TV, quest for the end II, stinker statue, and Gamestation 7 to be able to be purchased more than once (for people that lost/sold them)
- Added a Kenzo hotspring animation!
- Fixed an issue where spirits would sometimes disappear when you put them in a bath
We hope you enjoy the new fishing - there's more where that came from! You can grab Spirittea now at 30% OFF and we'll see you next time!
