HearthWood Tavern

### 0.5 - v0.5 - Additions: - Elara's Storyline Rework - : Elara's storyline has been completely reworked! Dive in and experience her story like never before. - New Elara Scenes - : Enjoy several brand-new scenes featuring Elara. Get ready for some exciting moments! - Improved Game Intro - : The game's introduction has received some love! I'm gradually implementing improvements across different scenes. - Sound and Music Enhancements - : Added sounds and music to select environments to boost immersion. More to come in future updates! - NSFW Scene Enhancements - : I've learned some new tricks to enhance the immersion in NSFW scenes. These will be gradually rolled out across the game. - Minor Sprite and CG Adjustments - : Made small tweaks to various sprites and CG scenes for a better visual experience. ### 0.4.1 - v0.4.1 - Main Focus - This update is all about Lyra and some key narrative improvements! - Major Changes - Reworked Introduction : - The game’s intro has been completely revamped! Now you can make choices during scenes. I want these choices to really matter—not just change a few lines, but also set the foundation for a future relationship system I’m working on. Some choices already influence future scenes, making the story feel more dynamic and personal. - Scene Order Variation : - Some scenes now change a bit depending on the order you meet the characters. For now, this only affects one scene, but I plan to expand this so your choices and the order of your interactions have a bigger impact on the story. - Lyra’s Scenes Overhaul : - All of Lyra’s scenes have been reworked, with new CGs and a brand new sprite for one of her scenes! Lyra now has a lot more sprites than the other characters, so I want to bring everyone up to the same level in future updates. - Menu Sound Effects : - Added new sounds to the menu! If the hover sound gets too annoying, let me know—I’m still thinking about tweaking it. - Fixes and Adjustments - Fixed several images and interactions that weren’t working right in the new menu, especially on mobile. - Made small tweaks to some CGs and sprites for better quality. - Fixed a few continuity errors in the narrative for a smoother story experience. ### 0.3 - v0.3 - What's New? - New Character Added! - New Scenes - for characters who didn't get any in the last update. - New Random Scene System - : Now, while working at the tavern, you might see a random scene—if you’ve already unlocked its conditions. This is meant to encourage spending time at the tavern while also introducing new moments! - New UI for the Main Menus! - (I still plan to improve the in-game UI as well. This is a work in progress since I’m still learning how to bring my ideas into Ren'Py.) - Added a Disclaimer - at the beginning of the game (just a small detail, but it might be important to have). - Fixes & Improvements - Adjustments to some - sprites and CGs - that looked a bit off (I’ll keep refining these over time). - Tweaked - some dialogue - to make scenes more consistent. - Code improvements - (probably not noticeable on the player’s side, but it helps a lot). - Spanish language added! - (I’m working on refining the translations, so I apologize for any inconsistencies.) - Rearranged Nina's scenes - into an order that makes more sense. ### 0.2 - v0.2 - New Content - New Character: Zara Dryake - – Her progress is tied to the tavern’s debt payments. Currently, the values are arbitrary, and I'll be adjusting them to ensure a balanced progression that makes sense. - Character Menu on the Map Screen - – You can now check the characters directly from the map screen! - New Scenes Added - – Clara, Talia, and Milena have received new scenes. - Portuguese (PT-BR) Translation - – This was done automatically for now and hasn't been fully reviewed yet. Some menus are still untranslated, but it's a test for now. - Fixes & Improvements - Adjusted some - sprites - that looked a bit off. - Fixed - dialogue inconsistencies - in some scenes. - Reworked how the main menu is displayed - – Though you probably won’t notice any difference, this was more of a technical adjustment. - Gallery Fix! - – I only recently noticed that I had published version 0.1 with a completely broken gallery… Sorry about that! It should now be working as intended. - Several - technical improvements - to scene logic (mostly backend changes for better handling). ### 0.1 - v0.1 - Initial release
