YOU LOVE ME, YOU REALLY, REALLY LOVE ME!
Okay, okay, letâs all take a breath while Iâm clearly not Sally Field and weâre still several scandals away from an Oscar. But 1,000 views on itch.io? Honestly, for a K-pop survival show in its infancy, that is a damn good start.
Thank you to everyone who followed, played, and judged my life choices this month. I know Iâve been a bit quiet on the official updates, but thatâs only because weâre deep in the laboratory building a glow up that actually hits. So, I heard some rumors... I saw Yuriâs diary entry. apparently, the maknae canât keep a secret. Since she already leaked the news about our technical wizard and those anchors, I might as well give you the official deets.
đ ď¸ The Technical Exorcism
My developer, Zarifjon, is currently migrating everything to a Custom ReactJS Engine. We are using Zustand for state management, which Iâm 90% sure is just a German curse word for "this state is a total mess" lol but who cares? What matters is that you are finally getting a Real Save System so you can stop having a mental breakdown every time you accidentally close your browser tab.
Chapter 3: The Villa (Episodic Release)
This chapter has turned into such a massive narrative beast that Iâve decided to release it week-by-week, survival show style. Here is a look at what happens when the masks finally start to crack (week 1):
Hierarchy of Gold: In this house, the wristband you wear determines if youâre the Queen getting a VIP massage or the servant cutting fruit for the rest of the group.
The Inner Circle: Iâm finally letting you inside the heads of the icons with exclusive POVs AKA Noa-ssi & Minjae-ssi. Youâll get to see the world through their eyes in all its lilac-colored, trauma-sparked glory.
Minjae said it best:
"I built them a sanctuary of glass, and he shattered it with a single clap."
The receipts are coming very soon. Donât blink. (Or do, if youâre a Blink đ)
