Nightly Maintenance

Bug fix | 0.6.0.1

  • The mannequin will now be able to move on Quickplay

The End Update pt.1 | 0.6.0
Thank you so much for the support you've shown the game. Below, you'll find the first part of the last few updates before 1.0!

New



  • Steam Integration

    • Achievements

      • Note: Some achievements are not implemented yet and are impossible to unlock

    • In-game flairs for certain players (Developer & Official Content Creators)


  • Added new movement mechanics for the Mannequin (No more jumpy floaty boi)
  • Added load percentages to loading screens
  • Added a bit of pizzazz to the Main Menu
  • BRAND SPANKING NEW MANNEQUIN!

    • This change was neccesary to make the NEW ANIMATIONS work
    • Note: The old mannequin will still appear in some places.



Changes



  • Updated core to latest version of Unity
  • The loading screen for Nightmare will now display a random string of letters and numbers instead of the default loading text
  • Tasks in Nightmare will be displayed as a random string of text like the loading screen
  • Added text that gives better direction to where the roof is on Prologue
  • Made changes to the factory to aid the new mannequin navigation system
  • The pause menu will now take up the entire screen
  • Big boy change right here -> Game's name will now be changed from Nightly Maintenance: Malcom's Story to simply Nightly Maintenance. This decision was made because, originally, the game was supposed to be in a series and that idea was scrubbed. Plus, just saying Nightly Maintenance is a lot more catchy :). This will be noticeable in short bursts.


Fixes



  • Fixed a bug where the night would fail if you paused the game while the phone was ringing
  • No more being Jesus on the roof of Prologue
  • Fixed a bug where Prologue was marked as completed for all players

Beta Tester Flair now available!
Launch the game on the beta branch to get a permanent user flair :)


Note: If you have trouble getting the beta flair, relaunch the game a couple of times and make sure you are on the latest beta

If you still have trouble, Join the Discord and let me know :)

1.0 beta is here!
Hi players!

If you have not learned yet, you can play the beta for the full release of Nightly Maintenance under the beta tab of Steam. I upload a new beta every time I do something significant. It's a great way to test out features before they are released and help me fix things that need to be fixed. Join the discord to help me fix things!

Thank you,

A letter from TWhippp
Hello everybody!

I have not forgotten about you guys and I hope you haven't either. I owe you guys a little update as it has been a while since I've active on the game. Let me start off by saying NIGHTLY MAINTENANCE HAS NOT ENDED :)! I have just been taking alittle of a break to take care of myself and my life and focus on studies. I will finish this game if it kills me haha! I have started the development again, but please do not expect updates to be put out briskly.

I have also joined a new project and will be helping them with their project as well.

Thank you all,
TWhippp
