Alchemisery Release 4


Release 4 is here! Hopefully things will feel more finished and stable by the time I hit double digits with these releases. 

The game was a bit rushed due to the jam constraints and personal issues, like coming down with a disease. How thematically appropriate! But we'll get there regardless.

Changes include:

  • Fixing several solutions including ones that prevented you from helping certain townsfolk.
  • Typo fixes, including some that made it difficult to interact with key items.
  • Improvements to make the parser more user-friendly with certain verbs and nouns.
  • Better parser messages in general, fewer "default" or unhelpful messages.
  • Better hinting in item and room descriptions, where appropriate.
  • Improved dialogue with some townsfolk.
  • Fixed death/end of game messages about score (there is not a numeric score in the game).

There's still more I would like to do to fix up minor issues and improve some of the parsing, especially related to moving around the map.

I also need to playtest further, myself. And of course, if you run into any issues  with this release, please let me know in the comments!
