Future updates.

Since we reached a milestone with the OSX version, It is time to think about the new future updates!
For now, I have the following schedule:

Top priority short term
  • -          Screenshot button
  • -          Unify the big and mini version. Allowing swap
  • -          Megu Accessories Mechanics! Making your megu more stylish!
  • -          Animated furniture/houses
  • -          Implement some missing interface buttons (furniture jumping etc)
  • -          Reclassify megus by size and type
  • -          Shiny version (alternate color)
  • -          Autumn items
  • -       Christmas items


Top priority long term
  • -          Chromebook version
  • -          Java version (maybe linked to the chromebook issue).
  • -          Draw accessories
  • -          Megu Diary (based on time since last login, the megu will write some notes about what he did during the day)
Under study
  • -          Facebook connection
  • -          Twitter connection
  • -          Online mode 
  • -     Petpets. I didn't see them personally but I can check
  • -     Stray version
  • -     Minigames (no idea)
Suggestions?

Update: New version of Windows client and new OSX client

Hello, this is Sugiyama speaking.
I am glad to announce an updated version of kpm port for Windows and the new client for OSX. 
I am sorry about the delay, preparing this update took longer than planned, given the unfortunate OSX bug (which I thank everyone for helping! without you it would take way longer) plus the new features I wanted to add (Sugiyama couldn't stop!). I also got sick this week so I couldn't work at full force...

I am happy to tell you that there are a lot of new features and surprises. These are some changes you will find in both Windows and OSX clients:

  •  Complete interface update;
  •  Use food items as furniture items;
  •  Save/Load/Clear house;
  •  Sound control options: BGM and soundtrack;
  •  Celebration items and house for the new OSX client;
  •  Screen messages: Megu is expressing himself again!!
  • Implementing some new commands that were missing (such as removing friends)

To make sure that there will be no problems on the update, please do the following:
- Copy your gamedata folder to somewhere else.
- Rename the house.megu file (inside house directory) to "SAVDEFAULT.house" (must be this name!).
- make a clean install, do not overwrite the files (to ensure that you are using the newest files)
If you are porting from windows to OSX, open the .app as a directory, go to resource and put the files inside the gamedata located there.
This is a new update but there is more to come soon. 
These are the download links:
Windows

In case of any bug, please report me as soon as possible to provide fixes!
Have a lot of fun and see you.
I will post the future updates in another post. Stay tuned
Best regards,
Sugiyama
