Patch Notes: July 20

Big patch!

It's been a few months since the last patch, and that's because I was trying to implement some big changes. Adding windowed support, getting achievements working on Mac, infinite undo, and cloud saves are all monstrous endeavors, and while none of those highly requested features are in this patch, this patch does have a lot of great QoL fixes:

Fixed the positioning of some quest markers.
Fixed a bug where a certain Spell would be encountered too early.
Made the map start at your character's position instead of the Town Hall.
Fixed a bug where sometimes you would talk to the wrong NPC if two NPCs were in speaking range to you.
Added an indicator to show which NPC you are talking to.
Fixed some misleading NPC text and typos.
Added some new flavor text to multiple NPCs.
Fixed a crash caused by minimizing the game window while the game is loading.
Fixed a bug where an NPC would sometimes say a Spell early, causing a potential sequence break.

About the Game

Flowereverie is a peaceful flower-laden puzzle game where, to perform any action you must first spell it, by arranging letters like flowers in a vase. Hone your flower-arranging skills to spell anything you can think of! Learn to walk, talk, climb, swim, and more, by collecting flowers and vases to create beautiful arrangements of letters. Cast spells, spell spells, become the land's most prolific flower arranger, and you might be able to discover the dark secrets of the town proper.

In the world governed by the mythical and loved-by-all goddess Sakuya, no action can be undertaken before first spelling it by arranging letters in a vase like flowers.

When passers-by enter the peaceful and idyllic world, they cannot even walk or talk, but after learning to "arrange" those words using flowers and vases, the artform of flower-arranging reveals itself as a rich and infinitely deep concentration.

By changing just 1 letter of the Red Pedalwalker, the very first flower you encounter in the game, you can spell TALK, LIE, and ALTER! It's a very powerful flower indeed. As you learn more Spells, you'll be able to change more letters in more ways, and spell even longer and more complicated Spells.

Outsiders to the peaceful village home to the flower-arranging art have trouble grasping the village's strange way of life, and thus are a rarity. As you become more well-versed in the culture of the world, dark secrets of the town proper will start to reveal themselves.

What is the truth of this flower-laden world? What are its secrets? Become the best flower-arranger in the land, expose the world's lies, and decide the future of the world of Flowereverie.
