Deluded v0.4 Closed Beta Changelog

4th day of the prologue is now available! 🎉

You've been waiting patiently, we've been working like crazy. And yes, there’s a lot to unpack. More quests, new characters, NPC schedule and more.

Now, let’s see what our team has been sweating over…

NPC system, being the flagship of this update, was a pretty big bite to chew, but we nailed it! All the previous systems we worked on (see the roadmap) were tied to the main character, whereas NPC system involves not only that, but also complex interactions with the characters and the whole game world! That's why it took us more than anticipated. NPCs now not only go about their various routines and move between locations, but they are also able to adjust their dialogues with the MC based on the current event, open/close doors and interact with items and objects around. The only downside is that you can't yet talk to NPCs while they're walking, but we'll make sure to add this into the next minor updates.

One of the biggest additions in v0.4 is a fully fleshed-out new gloor scene. The tags of the gloor vial speak for themselves—and yes, it’s not for the faint of heart (you can check the tags by hovering over the gloor vial in the game). Took us about half a year and the efforts of 4 people to make it all for your enjoyment (all the 113 sequences and 236 animations!). The team highlights just how many branching paths and fetish/attribute combinations went into this scene—and how cohesive it turned out in the end! We also got to experiment with camera angles, lighting and movement… And honestly? If we’re this pleased with how it turned out, you’re probably in for a good time too.

And what about the core mechanics and gameplay systems? Apart from the already mentioned NPC system, you can also spot early drafts of the Privacy system (private/semi-private/public areas, Shame as a new attribute affecting Stress) and Character customization mechanics (nails, pills that alter some aspects of Alisa’s appearance) here and there.

And rest assured: work on open world is in full swing, and you can already mess with it yourself! Go to Lindcliff → use the Orb in your inventory → click Start open world or Use. It’s filled with prototypes, so don’t expect full-on gameplay.

Lastly, would you look at this monstrous changelog! Because of how much new and complex stuff there is, we need your testing and feedback now more than ever!

Enjoy!
