Hello, everyone! This is Kumo Studio.
We're excited to give you a little preview of what's coming next!
Tired of the default RPG Maker menus?
We're currently working on a brand-new Quest Board UI!
Hopefully, it will bring a fresh visual experience to the game.
Not sure how much debt you have? Don't know your credit rating?
We've added a new HUD that lets you check your credit status anytime.
The more debt you have, the worse your credit rating becomes.
Want to know how miserable your financial situation is?
Just take a look!
Currently, the answer is no.
Your credit rating will not prevent you from progressing through the main story.
However, we're considering using it to unlock or trigger certain side quests.
It will depend on how development goes!
You know what they say: get back up where you fell.
Meow Meow lost money because of a failed investment.
So why not make more investments to pay off the debt?
If you're stubborn enough, there's always another way!
There are three areas you can upgrade:
Store Size: Increases customer traffic and changes the appearance of your shop.
Gathering Team: Unlocks new materials and automatically gathers and restocks items.
Advertising Network: Improves customer efficiency and unlocks new NPCs.
All three upgrades will help attract more customers and improve your sales efficiency.
Each category can currently be upgraded to Level 5.
Improving your credit rating may unlock higher upgrade limits!
There are several ways to obtain materials:
Fighting monsters
Gathering resources on the map
Completing side quests
After collecting these materials, you can submit them to the Carvarn to earn money.
That means paying off your debt just got a little easier!
The Black Market system is currently quite simple.
Similar to submitting materials, you can put your extra consumable items up for sale.
Adventurers in the game may randomly purchase them—and at a higher price!
If you want to pay off your debt faster, make good use of the Black Market!
The Guild system will have a semi-idle mechanic.
As long as your caravan has goods in stock, customers will come by and make purchases automatically!
Q: Will these new features be added to the Demo?
A: It depends on development progress. If everything is stable and ready for testing, we may release these features in a future Demo update.
Q: How will the Guild system expand in the future?
A: We're currently developing it as a semi-idle system. If development goes smoothly, we may add more materials and content in the future.
Q: Will the Guild have its own story?
A: We have plans for it, but it's currently a lower priority. Since our development resources are limited, the Guild may have some side stories, but they will probably not be directly related to the main story.
Thank you for following the development of the game!
We hope to bring you an even better experience in the future.
See you next time!
