Version 1.1


Hello all!

I just uploaded a new build for Half Haunt Halloween. This build has the following changes: 


1. The Gamble, Hunting, Mining and Online Tutoring percentages have been adjusted and the code changed slightly. Originally, it was a little too easy to hit the jackpot at the slots, so I dropped the percentages for the larger pay out items for each of these events. 

2. There was a bug in the end of Milo's ending where if you had not been keeping up with [Other Character]'s dialogue, it would be extremely hard to activate Milo's ending in time. It's still not guarantied (this is on purpose), but discovering Milo's secret and then activating this other character's dialogue allows Nico to make a deduction earlier. (Sorry this reads so vaguely, spoilers!!! haha. Basically a few things were tweaked behind the scenes.)

3. I took out the A/N right before Milo's "Secret Stash" dialogue since it was more confusing than helpful. The Blood Moon is when the game lands you on a character route (Milo, Samson, or no one's), and after this event the other character you did not pursue disappears. (Or they both disappear if you did no one.) 

4. I finally figured out where the weird Gibberish text was hiding in the Quick Start textbox!!! Yay! If you, like me, are using the Text Animator plug-in for Unity, you'll need to find the Text Animator component and open the "preview" option and just put in some blank characters. 

(Push the arrow button, put in blank characters (I used spaces) and then hit save. I'm mostly just writing this out because I know I'll forget the answer to this bug and I'll run into it again, hahaha.) 

5. Saving at the end of the game after having activated Milo's "Secret Stash" dialogue has him reappearing if you load back in. This has been fixed. 

6. In the previous build if you got the Half a Million Chollars before the game you could depression nap until the end of the game. The game would ask you every single day if you wanted to depression nap. I took this out and now the game will only ask you once! I found it annoying to keep being asked about it, so I made the choice a single choice. 

That's it! I haven't heard of any other bugs for this game which is exciting??? There is one final (minor) bug I'm aware of that when you save and load back into the game, you'll end up in the Casino no matter where you originally were. I didn't include an "active room" aspect of my load/save code and implementing one is possible... but kind of annoying. Just consider it a feature. The Leith's want you to spend all your hard earned Chollars at their casino, after all. :) 

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
