Sinful Spaces v0.9.103_beta — Balance, Performance & QoL (Patreon)

Another patch is here!

This time, v0.9.103_beta isn't focused on fixing bugs. Instead, we've focused on some important feedback we've received regarding balance & Rng, performance, and quality of life.

Balance

We got a lot of feedback about the game being too RNG driven.So we've made some changes to the bonuses provided by the Verga family members at the start of the week to make their choices have a much more significant impact on your gameplay.

For example:

Tabata: "Only Manage Moments".

Suzan: "Only Peek Moments".

Daniela: "Only Spy Moments".

Megara: "Only Date Moments"

Max now is a way to play randomized Moments.

And so on.

The goal here is to make these choices feel more meaningful and allow you to better direct what kind of moments you want to experience, rather than relying so heavily on RNG.

We've also added a Refresh button to the Portrait Room. It costs money to use and allows you to re-randomize the available familiar portraits, giving you more control over which familiars you can choose from while also giving money another use.

Next week we're also activating Seduction Essentials, allowing you to purchase gifts that increase tenants exposure and therefore more chance of appearing.

Performance

We've also made some changes to improve performance, especially for players who reported slowdowns caused by visual effects such as particles and blur.

We've added a new Graphics setting with Low, Medium, and High options. This allows players experiencing performance issues to reduce the visual effects and hopefully get a much smoother experience without having to sacrifice the rest of the game.

Quality of Life

Player options are now saved independently from the save game, meaning your settings will remain even if you start a new game or load a different save.

This includes your fullscreen preference, audio and graphics settings.

We've also added a character name tag to the Moment selection screen. This way, when hovering over a Moment, you'll always know which character it belongs to, as well as its neighbors for comparison.

Thank you again to everyone who has been playing the beta and sharing your feedback with us.

These changes come directly from your comments, and we'll continue keeping an eye on how the new balance and performance options work in practice.
