gogh: Focus with Your Avatar News

During Next Fest, we are broadcasting a live stream introducing our app in three languages!
The presentation will be delivered in English > Chinese > Japanese, with narration from the dev team.

Note:

• This broadcast is not live but a pre-recorded video being streamed.
  
• The demo has been further improved since the recording of this video! If you’re interested, be sure to try it out for yourself!
  

Since the demo was released on February 21, we’ve updated it three times based on everyone’s feedback!

Here are the main fixes:

• Fixed an issue where the game wouldn’t start in certain countries or regions
  
• Corrected the Traditional Chinese font
  
• Made it possible to rotate the avatar by dragging the mouse during avatar editing
  
• Prevented Kuroda42 from growing on its own while the timer is running
  
• Now only accepts mouse wheel input when hovering over the app window
  
• Widget positions are reset upon redisplay (temporary fix)
  
• Added a feature to hide certain UI elements based on the window’s aspect ratio
  
• Added some new room items
  
• Fixed a bug where the room item list could become empty
  
• Updated the count-up timer to support three-digit display
  
• And more…
  

If you played right after release and ran into issues, please give it another try!

The demo for the gamified productivity game where you can create your own customized avatar, gogh, is now available! 🎉

There are still parts currently under development so the demo does not give the full gameplay experience, but please play the game and check it out!
Everything is okay to stream, including the background music!

In the demo version, you can enjoy the housing function, avatar creation, photography, and the productivity functions like timers, to-do lists, and music playlists.
The pet-raising function of the mysterious character, Kuroda 42, is available but in a limited function.
Also, the demo will be rendered non-functional right before the full game is released, but you will be able to import your saved data.

Please look at this chart to see the differences between the demo and the full game.



We plan to use your opinions and feed back to improve our game even further!
We'd love it if you could use this Google form to give us detailed feedback, but you can also leave your comments on the official thread in our Steam forum!

Also, during Steam Next Fest, we'll be having a giveaway campaign to streamers for 3 Steam keys to the full product! Please check out the following image for more details!
