Development Diary № 45 (Patreon)

Hello, friends. I'm back in that period where I don't communicate with anyone and barely connect online. But the work hasn't stopped for a day. First of all, I hope that thanks to Mr. FloRDA, both Chinese languages ​​will soon be available in the game, Bright Past. If anyone here cares about this, please let me know! I also continued working on fixing the English version of Bright Past.

But I've been devoting most of my time to the Esterium project. I'll briefly tell you what's new you'll see soon:

Characters will be able to sleep in the wild; to do so, you'll either need to start a fire or try to sleep without one. Depending on several factors, sleeping outside of camp can be dangerous. Food will no longer be required for sleep, but consuming it will provide bonuses for the entire day.

New states will be added: Vigor and Exhaustion, which will depend on the quality of your sleep.

There will also be an arousal system and the ability to reset this arousal using your hands. But only up to a certain level.

The action point system will be replaced by a time system. Some actions, including long treks through locations, will consume time, which could lead to nightfall in the wild. Outdoor locations will receive nighttime versions.

As for the story, I'm currently working on Endri's (the sexy goblin from the Nest) route.

Several (5) new NPCs will also be added to the game. The Nest is gradually turning into a proper settlement.

Working on this project is very inspiring, but I sometimes miss the Bright Past. Perhaps after the release of the next version of Esterium, I'll work on some improvements to my old project.

In the meantime, thanks to everyone who's still sticking with me. I'll try to bring you the new version as soon as possible. By the way, version 0.005 is now available for everyone here.

With great gratitudeKosmo.
