Version 0.1.3 brings HUGE changes to the caverns of Grimdelve, the biggest of which are brand new stealth mechanics and an additional ~10 minutes worth of scenes featuring Gisela! We are now nearing the completion of the DEMO content, currently only one more sequence featuring Jaro is planned. Once this is added, devlog updates will persist until the game is finished, which should hopefully take a year once the demo is in a completed state.
NEW FEATURES:
- Stealth! Enter stealth mode to hide the sounds of your steps, but be careful because other things, like lighting your lantern, still make noises. Creep around in the darkness to avoid a new enemy, or try using your traits to get you away safely if you get caught!
- Scenes featuring Gisela! See her adjust to life underground and decide what first impression she will leave on her new fellows...
- Dialogue lines, both trait-dependent and not, to help flesh out our characters.
- Ability to rebind ALL of your keys as you see fit.
- Improved health system! With the addition of stealth, there needed to be a way to die. But, not everything will instantly kill you. Perhaps you escape your assailant harmed but not dead, or perhaps you survive an otherwise deadly fall...
- New music and enhanced sound design, including directional footstep sounds!
- Other minor bug fixes / grammar fixes.
The addition of stealth brings with it a whole host of other issues, especially since it's a mechanic not often seen in RPG Maker games.
