Thank you all so much for your support of this game I made back when I was 18 years old. While I work on the Overhaul Update, here's a long overdue patch!
Fixed that dang Day 15 bug!
The game is now built in current-day GameMaker
Level 0 of the Gametot Color toy now comes after Level 3, and after Level 0 you are taken back to Level 1
So - about that Overhaul Update. What's planned for that once it's finished?
Reprogramming the game from the ground up, carrying over game content
The game running at 60 FPS
Overhauled gameplay elements and UI controls
Redrawn game sprites
Improved dialog and game text
The ability to choose a Buddinpal, including more than just Amaryllis and Moppy
More items and toys, including ones that were finished but never made it into the game!
This was the first game project I finished in GameMaker and I've learned so, so much about programming since then. I look forward to eventually sharing the Overhaul Update and the definitive version of Buddinpals with you!
Quality of Life Patch plans
It's aliveeee! The game will be celebrating its 3rd anniversary in November, and if you've been following my recent web game work, I've definitely improved a lot since my first commercial release here. This was my first finished project in GameMaker, too! Most of you will know the game crashes on Day 15, which has been fixed in this upcoming patch - But I thought I'd tell you the other things now planned for this update:
The game running at 60 FPS
Redrawing almost all the art in the game
Game pacing tweaks
BUGFIXIN' (including the day 15 crash)
The DLC content that's done that I never released, lol
Maybe redoing some music?
Doubling the game's price to $5.99 USD (so take advantage now!)
The update will be out when it's out, hoping to release around the 3rd anniversary. I'll post when it's coming on my Twitter. Thank you all for your support and positive reviews since 2018! <3
