Venus Derby - Visual Flair, AI Changes and Testing of v0.05 (Patreon)

The development continues as usual! This week, it has been mostly with laying groundwork for new features and making some much needed tweaks to the AI.

I also attached the character editor documentation to this post. Make sure to check that out if you plan on modding!

v0.05-Unstable-A is available to supporters who have joined the Discord server! Learn more about it here

The Supply Shop

The "WIP" supply shop has finally opened! It currently has 5 basic items for testing the shop system and the Lua scripting backend I added in v0.05. More about that in a future post.

New Visual Novel Effects

Version v0.05 brings animated background effects, they are even customizable! Allowing for better storytelling.

Tweaked AI Behavior

Tweaked the racer AI to weigh its own race tactic more heavily. Your trainee will try to slow down or speed up to match their intended place in the pack.

Old Hardware Support

Venus Derby requires a Graphics Card capable of DirectX11 FL11.0, anything below might not run the game or cause graphical issues. That means GPU's released around 2010 and onwards should be able to run the game just fine!

Thanks for your support on Venus Derby!
