Demo Version Update: I updated the demo files to version 0.2.2. For those that have not had a chance to play the game, this should give you enough content to get an idea of the story before making a decision on purchasing.

Hopefully you have had a chance to play through the latest release for Shards of the Past 0.3.1. I wanted to post an update to share some details for the next content release 0.4.0. I am working on finishing the renders as well as dialogue and some code for the campsite scenes. These are various scenes that you will see if you decide to skip the random encounters. I am making sure the dialogue works for when you choose to avoid an encounter and also for if you are kicked out such as case with some choices from the Raelynn encounter. 

Along side this work is development for the continuation of the story as you and your group finish your trip to Castle Helmsworth and will have to deal with the situation there. I will have more details in future development updates.

I am planning to release the campsite scenes ahead of the 0.4.0 release. It will also include numerous other updates to the game and interface.

Ongoing Updates

• Changed the links to the Preferences screen as well as the screen title to now say Options. This is inline with the main menu naming and buttons.
• Added a Text Size slider to the Options screen to increase the font size for dialogue text. The Lowest setting is the current text size and it grows larger from there. (This is for in game dialogue only, menu text and choices remain unchanged since increasing that would cause display issues on the screens.)
• Added a Name Save Files setting in the Options screen that allows you to enable or disable the prompt for a filename for your saves. (Save Names are on by default)
• Fixed an issue with the labels for the Gallery Images that was preventing them from displaying correctly.
• Updated sub menu font and color for text to match the main menu screen.
• The background images for the Main Menu have been updated and will now start at a different part of their rotation each time the game loads.
• Updated the warning screen to expand on some of the darker themes that appear in the game.
• Fixed a few lines of Damerek dialogue to make them more consistent.
• Fixed a Moria image where she still had her original version's brown eyes.
• Fixed a few images that had certain character's hair poking through their faces.
• Updated the Jonah gravesite images to have a small stack of stones instead of a cross.
