0.73 Experimental build release


Hello hello! 
I know its been a long time since we've talked, I hope you all had a great Halloween!

Now onto this update, you might see a lack of new content. The system for controlling the girls was rather broken, leading to play that I didn't particularly like. What we have now is a modular system that we can apply to every other level in the game, which should allow us to make the final two levels rather quickly. 

To go more into it, the previous build of the enemy system was built like a slot machine, where girls would randomly pop into places on the map based on their rolls (like DND kinda). This worked for the base concept of the game, however this game has a lot of fans and definitely needed the additional love put into this system. 

As such all of the girls have their own unique spin being put into the game. For example Nile now becomes more aggressive if you don't look at her on the camera systems. Poppi is about the same when it comes to the minigames. Sammy of course is hungry for you no matter what.


We have disabled (kinda) use of the nightclub so that there is more of a focus on playing the admin room, I will still keep the previous build up for people who really want to play that. It's just that more than likely there are horrible bugs in that area in 0.73. 


WHAT IS NEXT?

I have heard from various fans that they want to talk more about the future of the game, while I usually saved that sort of talk in the developmental logs. What I will be pursuing in the future will be weekly/bi-weekly devlogs that will discuss future content, and give more insight to you guys. If you have any further recommendations please comment them! 
Game wise, I plan to be integrating the tutorial in the next week, which will feature a beloved raccoon girl! I also will be making an attempt to hide more lore throughout the levels in the next updates. Just don't expect a FNAF-like story, I believe the movie "Willies Wonderland" was the best take on a fanfiction FNAF setup. I can not do any better than that wonderful piece of modern entertainment.
But I can do something different. 


Thank you all again, please if you would like to talk just hit that reply in the comments, I do take time to read everything!
Also we do have a discord with a very active community!

It's pretty weird, or am I missing something, but why not release "In  Heat" in Steam and update it also? (If the text is hard to understand or misspelled, it's because of a dumb translator.)

WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!!

i just boght it so i might just not know how to save but any time i exit game it resets all my settings and progres

(1 edit)

Okay so I am having an interesting bug that I thought I should share here. So firstly, I do still have 7.2 downloaded in the event that might matter and I am using the same save. But I just did 5 nights in a row, nights 21-26, and none of the girls even so much as left their rooms. On night 26, after looking around for a crystal I didn't even look at the camera again that's how confident I was that nothing would happen. Not sure what's going on, but I thought I should report it.


Also Also, the orange light image I am having a hard time getting, in both this and older versions. I smash some or all of the orange lights, including the one in the figure viewing room and nothing happens. Is this an already known issue or am I doing something wrong? I would def appreciate feedback


Apologies on if these issues were addressed elsewhere and I missed them

Regarding your first issue, I believe this version of the game limits nights (at least in the admin room) to 12, meaning that in save files where you're already past night 12 the girls wont really do anything.

Not sure about the orange light issue.

Maddie's pie is still bugged in 0.73 so far. Declining or accepting causes return buttons on camera/screen tilt in hub area to freeze up.

I'm experiencing the same issue, definitely not just you.

Also can someone help me how to unlock gallery, I have no idea how to get the gallery for the girls

(+1)

what does gallery even do? also i would love some fan services game mode lo

It's where you can see the gameover screens

"They bury the truth where things go to die." That line goes hard as hell. Also I am glad to hear that Cassidy is coming back I missed her. Just a couple of questions though, is Dahlia a thing that's ever gonna be implemented into the game or is that (sadly) scrapped content? Also with the addition of lore, how do you plan on doing it? Hidden tapes or possibly notes left by other nightguards? And will it possibly tie into In heat: honeymoon or its that just a funny side project? Maybe a fnaf book kinda thing where its not cannon but it provides some answers?

The game needs a written tutorial or video somewhere. I come back every update, but i forget a lot each time (mostly talking about the nightclub stage), some form of even just small textbox tutorial would be greatly appreciated

Lore?

I know this might not be within the scope of the base game but I and many others thought we'd get to interact with the girls in some way other than them popping into a room for a bit while doing an idle animation of some kind before leaving or messing with something in the building. Such as talking to get to know them better, hugging/kissing, and intimacy safely of course (meaning you don't die from it).

I understand that In Heat Honeymoon will fulfill this over time but I do like the idea of being able to interact with them in other ways in the base game. If this is something you don't feel fits or won't add as Honeymoon exists that's fine. I just think it would add a bit of something extra to make it more unique from other Fnaf style games where the Animatronics do basically the same, popping into rooms for a bit while trying to kill you. 

I'll see about leaving suggestions in another post after playing 0.73 abit.

Personally I'd need a damn good reason why I'd want to "get to know" someone who was trying to fuck me to death every night.

Then again, they ARE going for a horror movie vibe here, so we might get some creepy stalker-vibe dialogue. Frankly it would be a nice change of pace from the usual horror game flavor.

WTF

Early buyer here. Love the progress this game has made over the year. Good job! Regarding cutscenes/game overs. A lot of these look like wips and some even use placholders still, will the scenes be polished/updated/expanded as well at some point? My only point of concern for In Heat as everything else seems to be coming along just fine.

Yeah the male figures obviously aren't a priority, but goddamn it's hilarious watching fully fleshed out hotties fucking the Pillsbury Doughboy.

When will ARI start roaming around like all the other girls?
