Qui Domi

Is biome 3 playable yet? Nope. Still working on it.

But, yes, a new version is out. Backtracking is allowed in biome 2, up till Penelope takes role as the leader of the group; icons have been added to those weird blank category spots in the inventory; dialogue has been updated.

For those who haven't played in a loooong time, if you want to play again:
Sewing mini game; new way of meeting Shelby; tons of updated dialogue and artwork, including new scenery; new dialogue options for Penelope, not so cut and dry what's nice and what's not.

Now, what's the point of telling you guys about it if there technically isn't any new material to play yet? Because if you do want to play again, I need people to be able to tell me of any glitches they find. Especially when trying to backtrack.

Also, I wanted to ask two things.

1) When biome 3 is finished, should I update the game again with that added on?

2) Do you think I should sell this commercially when the finished product is out? The game continues on for a second half after you finish the four biomes, so I plan to double the gameplay. Also, I pay for all of the music in the game. I'm thinking about selling it on Steam for $5, but I haven't decided yet if that's a good idea. What do you think about it?

I would like to say sorry for being like "I'm gonna have new content for people to playtest real soon!" several months ago.

Several personal tragedies have transpired, two still ongoing. So, I'm taking a hiatus.

Thank you for understanding.

Somehow, during the most recent update, the sunflower graphics for biome 2 (the ones that you need to get sunflower seeds from and are nearly impossible to play without) were removed from the sprite sheets.

I have just updated the download link. I'm sorry glitches and oversights keep happening, but that is the nature of a beta game :{

EDIT: New biome 1 and 2 content available!

I have really grand plans for biomes 3 and 4 coming up, and that made me realize, that in comparison biomes 1 and 2 are pretty bland. I'm working on adding some new content and changes to them, along with dialogue changes (some of which I have already updated). In turn, pretty soon LPs of the game that have already been posted will be out of date. I will add another blog update when the new content has been added, and for those who have already played the game, if you come back for a second go, tell me what you think!

Also, even when making biome 3, I was wondering when I should end the demo. There's a lot of really cool stuff in that biome that is currently not in the demo. But, I ended it where I did not only for a cliff hanger but also because I thought that it would be too much to add in past that.

But, when I start getting more and more of it completed, for those who have already seen the end, should I extend the content of the demo? Keep in mind, once you beat the four biomes, that's only the first half of the game. I recently conceptualized a second half and multiple endings.

I dunno. I really want people to see the cool new stuff with Sibily and new puzzles... Should I add on biomes to the demo as they are created?

Tell me what you think.

EDIT: She'll be streaming more of it tonight, hopefully finishing biome 1, at 9:30pm EST. I do believe she'll be streaming the rest of it each night this week.
