Defending Lydia Collier Development Log

Hello everybody!

I hope you enjoyed the Defending Lydia Collier v.0.16 update and all the new content added Sunday evening.

Next up with be Defending Lydia Collier v.0.16.1 which will be released at some point in May, an exact date will be set once this is in Alpha testing as it will require some more intensive testing than usual updates.

Just to briefly cover version numbers, from now on the major number will only change when an entire day's new content is complete. "v.0.16.x" updates will be adding in a significant amount of new content or features, "v.0.16.x.X" updates will be bug fixes with no new content.

When the entirety of Monday is released, the version will flip to "v.0.17".

In the Defending Lydia v.0.16.1 update, there will be two new things added:

Firstly it will contain a small update featuring Vanessa, Tiffany and co which will see them return from the Island to the UK.

With Monday advancing the game's story, it is important to get all the routes coming back together so this is the first thing that needs to happen.

Secondly, it will contain achievements and an unlockable gallery.

I've been working on this for a while, and there will be an initial 50 different achievements for you to unlock, and each one will reward you with an unlockable image in the new secret gallery that will also be coming with it.

These images aren't "canon" to the story, they're just a fun way of putting the various characters in different situations and scenes in one off renders.

Achievements will mirror both in game and on Steam, so if you have Steam you'll get Steam achievements there too, and if you don't, you'll have in-game achievements and unlockables.

Thanks for all the new and continued support!
