Valley Awakening v0.90.00 - Now Available for Supporter Tier! (Patreon)

Hey Everyone,

Valley Awakening v0.90.00 is now unlocked for Supporter Tier. Links are at the top, as always.

This is the biggest content drop the game has had in a while: a new girl in Flat 2 with a full arc, a card-collecting hobby built around her, two new locations, a proper prologue, and a new title screen.

Where this build is in the schedule:

29 August — Complete Access Tier ($7)

Today — Supporter Tier ($4)

26 September — free public version

The next build follows the same pattern. Complete Access gets it the day it is finished, Supporter two weeks later, free two weeks after that. Complete Access also includes the full back catalogue of my previous games.

What's new in v0.90.00

New Character and Story

New character Juno added, the girl who moves into Flat 2 in the apartment building.

Juno's full 12 event story arc is in and playable start to finish.

30 new character sprites for Juno across 5 outfits.

6 new animations for Juno, each with slow, medium and fast.

3 new story CGs for her arc.

Her flat is free roam, so you can walk her rooms and click around instead of watching a scene play out.

Juno has her own messaging arc on the phone, so she writes to you between events.

Card Collecting

A full card collecting hobby is in the game, built around Juno and shared with her.

25 collectible cards to find, each with its own art.

Booster packs open one card at a time, with the good pull saved for last.

A binder to store and browse everything you have pulled.

A new Cards app on the phone so you can check your collection anywhere.

Dell now runs a card stall you can actually buy from.

New Locations

New location: the flea market, open on Sundays, where Dell sets up his stall.

New location: the car park, now reachable from the map.

Prologue

The game now opens with a proper prologue cutscene instead of dropping you straight in.

Interface

Brand new main menu built around the animated title background, with the old one still there if you prefer it.

Gallery reworked with a spotlight rail, filters and Juno's scenes wired in.

The launch splash screen now rotates through a set of images, so you get a different one each time you start the game.

Mobile now keeps the proper desktop styling on menu buttons instead of falling back to plain ones.

Language

Spanish catch up pass for everything new, including Juno's flat, the flea market, the car park and the new phone text.

Bug Fixes

Fixed a missing narrator voice that could break Kate's flashback scenes.

Fixed stat handling for older saves so existing playthroughs carry over cleanly.

Fixes across messaging, character schedules, quick travel, the phone and the game UI.

Fixes in Vivienne's, Diana's, Juno's and Maya's story files.

A batch of other bug fixes and polish.

If you would rather not wait two weeks for the next one, Complete Access Tier ($7) gets every build on release day, plus every previous game I have made.

A lot of this update came straight from your feedback. The free roam flat, the extra polish on the menus and a good number of the fixes in that list are all things you asked for or spotted before I did.

Thank you for backing the project.
