Lots of hard work has gone into this update. I really hope you all like what’s to come! And thanks a bunch for your patience. I know I tend to be gone for extended periods of time without even as much as hinting at what’s coming. But I’m just an apprehensive developer I suppose. I get really weary being vocal about upcoming features until I’m positive that it can actually be pulled off, so I don’t end up getting people’s hopes up. Self included.
Though I can say with confidence that this is going to be a really rad update and a whole bunch of new stuff is being added! So I really hope you all will enjoy when everything is revealed!
Very much looking forward to seeing what changes in version 0.5. Will save files be transferable from version 0.4 or will I have to start from scratch? And am I correct in seeing that you made the curated projects category? Congratulations if so!
You’ll have to start from scratch in this update. Hope that won’t be a major inconvenience!
Thank you! Actually, I was wondering, once the update comes out, should I take the opportunity to make a new thread? This one has been around since the beginning, and I’m not sure if it’s starting to feel a bit lengthy?
ALSO! Be sure to tune in Thursday @ 7:30 pm EST / 4:30 pm PST for a 14 minute Scribbles Showcase discussing the new stuff coming to Chub Chomp Chill 0.5, including the release date!
that depends, there are some Curated Projects that are 2000+ messages long (though admittedly only 2 projects come to mind that have this or are close to the threshold) and still on-going with updates, so if you want to start fresh that’s prefectly fine but know that some context will be lost as a result. whereas if you keep this one and continue to use it after the fact it you don’t have to go through the effort of typing it all over again and will only need to edit when announcing an update or converting the post to set update
personally i’d say keep this one, saves you lots of typing that can be spend elsewhere.
i would like to watch the new features, my reasoning for not doing so is
A: i like to be surprised
B: I’d rather not have youtube change my algorythm due to what i watch (then again it managed to scoop some out as much as i tried, but i ain’t gonna yield to it.)
sounds like badges could either be a sort of achievement system or related to some secrets hidden in the game, either way players will be hunting for those, which i’m down for.
Yay! We have props in the rooms!! In fact, more than a bed!
We have progression aside from each individual citizen!!
We have working hats!!
We have BELLY RUBS!!
We have a higher weight cap that I probably won’t get to despite me being a member of the “Make 'em bigger” gang!
I didn’t even reach space yet!
0.5 is looking great, I’m surprised by how many new things and changes it got over these months. And the video is always a blast, I like the editing
