Hello B.E.S.T.I.E.S!
Part 1 is complete, and we’re now working on Part 2! The scenes are already written, the coding is partly done—what’s left are the images and animations.
Here’s a quick recap of the Beta along with the changelog:
Phone Updates:
Character biography section
Integrated gallery/replay feature
OnlyStan app
New customization options
Notification system to let you know when you can send messages
Comment system in OnlyStan that directly impacts the gameplay
New Challenge:
Updated ranking system with a few surprises!
Option to toggle save name displays
New scenes tied to the girls you’re pursuing
Multiple possible outcomes for the challenge depending on your results
That wraps up what’s been included in Part 1!
For Part 2, we’ve got some scenes left to complete with the girls, plus a special scene tied to your comments on OnlyStan. And, of course, the second match!
New Feature Coming in Part 2: The Talent Tree!
Once you reach 10 points in a stat (Buddy, Education, Sport, or Temperament), you’ll unlock the talent tree for that stat. You’ll then be able to choose one talent from the available options, with additional talents becoming available every 5 points.
These talents will open up new possibilities in certain scenes or challenges, creating unique variations depending on the talents you use.
For example: during a match, if you’ve unlocked the Resistance talent in the Sport category, you’ll be able to keep going even after a rough tackle. While others might lose the ball, you’ll stay on your feet and continue the action.
That’s the kind of gameplay depth we’re aiming for!
Let us know what you think—we’d love to hear your feedback!
Alright, I’ll leave it here for now—there’s still a lot of work to do, and the Visual Novel Festival is just around the corner. We’d love for you to have the episode ready by then!
Have a great weekend, everyone!
