Quest Failed: Chapter Two - Alpha Build 0.2 Release

Added 2017-07-25 19:54:19 +0000 UTC

Hiya there, guys!

I'm happy to say that the latest build of the alpha is out, and will be sent to all those who have pledged the corresponding tier.

The download link you have at hand should be automatically updated with a new folder, too, so make sure to download from the 'Release 2' folder!

If you believe you're entitled to a copy of the latest alpha build and have yet to receive it, please let me know and I'll try to resolve things as fast as I can!

This new build doesn't add anything significat to the main plot, but preps things up in the framework and the day to day mechanics to be ready for that in the following build!

A reminder that: there's a good chance your existing save files won't work--or will break at some point in the game if you try to progress somewhere, where variables are required to be read but haven't been set in your old save. So start fresh for best results.

The new update features the following:

- The ability to donate to the church. (It's worth it!)
- A conclusion to the fishing quest.
- A new quest involving a treasure hunt!
- UI for gold, and functioning transactions in most cases. (Quests don't have functioning transactions for their costs yet to allow replayability)
- Misc. typo/grammar fixes
- A graphic/animation to show the passage of time when a new day arrives. (It's super slick, but easily missed if you click the transition too fast!)
- Added voice in one scene (Though music levels still need to be adjusted for best volume)

A reminder that once you finish a quest, it will loop you back to the quest board so that you can choose the other quest and experience them both without reloading. This won't be the intended behavior in future builds and it's planned for Matt to return back to the inn at the end of every quest and progress a day.

Thanks again for your patience, and I apologise for how small the new build is, but it sets the foundation for greater things now and I wanted to share at least something with you before the end of the month.
