Hi ladies,

It's been some eight days since I've promised dystopia 0.2 for this autumn's LGJ and now I'm here to deliver. So, what's new? Well, we have some old news (stuff that was done before the LGJ) and some new news, so let's dive into them, shall we?

Old news

I've ported the game to a new version of Tsukundere, removing the need of helper scripts and font bundles in the process. It will also now use fonts available on your system to render its text, which might serve as a reminder to install some CJK font if you have not already. Furthermore, there is a rival for Yuu – and one with a particularly large chest at that.

New news

You're at a school, that actually has teachers! Well, at least a placeholder one, which is a pink cutout of DejiNyucu's Agustina (the README mistakenly calls her Augustina, I'm sorry). I've also separated the code more neatly into functions to make it easier to read and thusly future versions easier to write and maintain.

General news

Of course, with new characters come assets, both images and a leitmotif as is standard for this project by now. Version 0.2 improves the worldbuilding – there is a lot to discover about the setting by going through all the options, even though the game itself remains fairly linear. Of course, you can also cheat and read the source code like some Computer Science undergrad.

With everything said and done, enjoy your dystopia, and don't forget to smile at work 🙂
