[Neolithic]To the End News

Hello everyone, welcome to another week's developer's diary.

We are currently exploring the ghost-infested 2nd floor of Ardham Hotel.
The Foundation, the FBI, and a drug cartel are somehow all responsible for "accidentally" making this place as it is right now. But, let's not spoil too much about the story right now.
Meanwhile, when there are more than just vengeful sprites roaming around the floor, some unfortunate souls are still trapped here.
For example here is a salesman who arrived at Queensmouth right before Halloween.

Now he can no longer leave. But, you may still find his goods can bring some Halloween flavor to your home in your pocket dimension. There are pumpkin heads, Halloween-themed chairs and sofa, and a coffin that you can use as a bed.

On the other side of the world, the newly arrived one-eyed police officer is still ruthlessly trying to get rid of so-called crimes by any means necessary. Now, he is even going after any normal citizens who do not agree with him. Put them under the crime of “Picking Quarrels and Provoking Trouble”. All are sentenced to death. And explosions, such as the booby traps are authorized to use. All in the name of his half-blind justice. (Literally.)
“Picking Quarrels and Provoking Trouble” is just such an ill-defined crime in China that everyone can be an offender. Some police officers just like to threaten people with it. A friend just called me last week as a police officer was accusing her of that.

Some other small updates of this week include an update of Murin's first cutscene and a new playable female character variation.


That's for this week. Now, I'm going to check if I have enough candies to survive this Halloween. :)

It has been a while since the last time we got a new playable character variation.
I also tried to do some pixel arts. Unfortunately, that ends up as a terribly time-consuming decision with a no-so-good result.
