A Prince's Tale - version 0.1.1 public release

I'm happy to announce the first (small) update to a Prince's Tale! I'll immediately start with a disclaimer: there's not much new content to be seen in this update. I've first been focusing on bug fixing and some technical work. Please read the changelog below for a full list of updates.

When I first released the game earlier this week I didn't expect it to elicit such a positive response from the community. It makes me so happy to read about how people can actually experience the passion I have put in the project and I love to read all the suggestions for the story that people are brainstorming about. I'm also even more positively surprised by the amazing support that you have given me through this Patreon. I can't believe I already have more than 100 followers, I want to thank you all so much for your faith in me and I will strive to turn this proof of concept into the amazing game that we can all already envision!

Next week I'm going on a short vacation so there likely won't be an update then. But who knows, maybe I'll use my time on the plane to write some more steamy scenes while I have nothing better to do.

Changelog:

• Added a short new scene when giving Morgana the potion instead of drinking it. This is so both paths now end at the same point. The scene gives some sense of where I’m thinking of bringing the dominant main questline, using magical potions to influence (and eventually transform) other characters.

• Reworked the confession system. After confessing all your sins, you can now choose to accept Dominic’s absolution or reject it, turning it either into virtue or depravity points. If you lie to him at the start by saying you have no sins you will now instead gain some depravity points instead of virtue.

• Reworked the coins minigame slightly. It is now much quicker as there are about a third less coins spawned and the coins itself bounce a bit more, giving a bit of a ‘billiards’ effect.

  Note: The intention of this minigame is that it’s very quick and fun to play around with. It should not simply feel like a chore. I hope these changes will help achieve that goal, in the future I’m planning to add some sound effects, that should also help.

• Added mobile support for both minigames.

  Note: When initially releasing the game I didn’t test anything on mobile and intended to release without mobile support. However, I have since gotten the feedback that pretty much most of the game works on mobile except for the minigames. This was quite unexpected and after testing it a bit myself, there are definitely some styling changes I will need to implement to make it better but for now I have added working touch controls on the minigames so that the game is at least playable on your phone.

• Added an option to skip minigames in the cheats menu.

• Fixed the invalid passages when training with Wymerus after some time.

• Fixed the missing passages when confessing to Dominic.

• Fixed Morgana’s spell effect sometimes sticking around even when not charmed.
