Newcomer 1.5 Update!

Bookmarks:

• Players can now bookmark and save any word.

• All bookmarked words appear with their definition(s) inside your phrasebook.

• Bookmarked words will appear during battles, allowing you to practice them.

Character Selection:

• Players have 10 different pre-built characters to choose from.

• Each character has their own animations and custom dialogue portrait.

NPC Animations:

• NPCs are no longer static and unmoving!

• Every NPC has a new set of walking and idle animations in addition to their own path around town.

Other Improvements:

• New and improved Dutch and Tagalog voices.

• Search any word or translation in your phrasebook.

• Chat history (memory) for NPCs is now saved. In intermediate mode, NPCs have memory of your conversations with them and remember their conversations across play sessions.

• After a NPC dialogue in intermediate mode, players can immediately begin typing instead of needing to press Enter or click the text input.

• Answer cooldown reduced in battle - allowing you to translate & defeat your foes faster!

• Phrasebook SFXs added.

• Improved phrasebook UI.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a game-breaking API bug.

• In intermediate mode, users can now search for translations without issue.

• removed dialogue which incorrectly always references the character as a female, all of the time.

A bit unrelated, but Newcomer was removed from iOS and Google Play stores. I have plans to re-upload Newcomer in the future.

Thanks everyone and I hope you enjoy! In my own experience, being able to bookmark and then practice those words has really improved the experience. Don't hesitate to suggest any new improvements or feature ideas you have. While you're enjoying, I'm going to get busy with Newcomer 1.6 - which will introduce new areas into the game!

Cheers, Jason
