Small Bugfixes

A few players reported some out of memory errors and issues with the text-to-speech. This minor update should fix both of them!

Changes for version 0.0.23:

  • Fixed occasional out of memory errors on certain devices.
  • Fixed text-to-speech issue on the main menu.


Thank you! ❤️

Demo Update: The Good Manners Update

Play the updated Upheaval demo now!

Explore whole new rooms and locations, talk to two new NPCs (parent and child, both nobility), and discover the secrets of the manor, either by earning the trust of the lord or lady of the house, or by poking around until you're kicked out. In addition, there are new graphics that help convey the passage of time more clearly.

[h2]Highlights from this update[/h2]

New region: The Manor! New rooms to explore, books to read, archives to visit, dinner to eat. Enjoy all the luxuries that nobility affords!



Two new characters: The Noble and the Lover (the Noble's son or daughter). Get to know both, improve your relationship with one or both (or neither), and explore all the interactions with these characters.



Discover all the secrets in the Manor! Hidden passages, old knowledge, and lost paintings. Can you discover all the secrets of the Manor?



The Lover in the Manor and the Prisoner in the Cave are determined to marry each other. Will they remain separated, or will true love prevail?

Demo Update: The Kitfox Update

Play the updated Upheaval demo now!

In this update, you can meet an adorably curious kitfox, an aggressive billy goat, and an elusive squirrel! There are also new mapping features, fixed bugs, a new verbosity setting for text-to-speech, and improved signposting throughout the game. I hope you enjoy! 🥳

[h2]Highlights from this update[/h2]

Meet the kitfox! It runs around the map, playing with you and sniffing at the ground. What’s it looking for?



Meet the billy goat! It leaps about on the mountain, looking for something to fight. Will that be you today?



New helpful navigation path on the overworld map! Right-click or long-press the map, and a path will appear on the map showing you how to get there.



A mysterious ruby-eyed squirrel, a character from a very early prototype, finally back in the game. Where will you find it?
