0.3 Alpha Released!


Check it out on Patreon or Subscribestar!

This release is far larger than I expected it to be, so I hope you like content!

10,623 new lines of code (and growing as we approach 0.3F at end of month)...I think that doubles the size of the game to date.

Our MC can now proceed from character creation and High School to...

  • College!
  • A Gap Year!
  • Try and find her mother -- a spy who's suddenly disappeared!

We've also seriously revamped the UX/UI (let us know what you think!), new clothing for the doll and a few other things we hope you'll like. What's coming in the next release (0.4)? [ETA September]

  • Fleshing out all the 'missing' art assets and other opportunities for visuals. We'll be proofreading and making sure everything makes sense, the bugs are quashed and the code is in the best form it can be before we dive into the main game.
  • Content-wise, I'll be pulling requests and suggestions from  our subscribers, for what arcs and vignettes you'd like for me to expand and enhance. And maybe I'll add in something new, if the idea is good enough! Maybe it's in College or Act I or High School. Let me know and we'll see what you all want to see!

And the next big content release (0.5)? [Estimated ~November]

Content

* Gap Year Claire will move on to College or head after Mom

* College Claire will find her way to Manila

* 'Drop Out' Claire will dig into the exploration and semi-sandbox world that is the main game and access to the first arcs that I've ideated

Technicals

We'd appreciate your support for the continued development of Blue Swallow, which you can join here! or here!. [Also gets you access to the current release]

Joining our community can also afford the ability to give feedback and input towards guiding and improving the game -- we look forward to hearing your ideas! We're also open to content contributors, if you want to be a part of the game! Reach out on the Discord =)

Looking forward to continuing the adventures of our intrepid protagonist!
