Formula Zero [v.0.02d] (2025) (Rus/Eng) [Ren'Py] [Linux] [Android] [Celeritas.VN]

v0.02d - 2025-12-14
Lexicon = So a lot of people who were not really into racing or motorsport in general were kinda thrown off by the technical terms throwed around, and following a suggestion from the user BlackRing I decided to implement this feature. It's just a way that I can offer more insight in a surface level without having to resort to audience surrogates in story, or overexposition.
Choices = Well this is the main feature of this update. Choices will become a big part of the game; I'll add a screen in game where you can see more information about it. They work in a pretty simple manner. (I already explained this in previous posts, but I'll do it again, you can skip this if you already know, nothing changed).
There're 6 types of choices, "World Perception" has 3 types and "Girls Perception" has 3 other types, the combination of the highest score of each one will give the MC his Personality. The world/girls will react to his current personality, but also every choice has a flag that may impact if you said something at a certain point, independent if you are in a personality type or not.
You don't have to worry about getting locked out of a path based on these choices, they will however, impact how the world/girls react to you. Girl paths will have their own major choice moments. Why? Because I, as a player would like to respond the way a feel like is the best for each situation without getting worried about if the girl, I like in the game will be locked out or not. What I'm trying to do is take out the onus to game the system from the player and give more work to me, because now the girl has to react to your chosen personality, and that can be very different from each other. I firmly believe this will make for a more enjoyable experience overall. The ONLY caveat is for a specific path with a specific girl, and I think all the choices are pretty obvious.
The choices are compounding, so as the game goes on if you pick more of the same style it will start to be hard to move away from it. It's like this to make sense in its own world. If the MC keeps picking the snarky/confrontational response over and over, he will be known as someone that often gives those kinds of responses. It will, however, not take away your ability to be serious when you want to be.
The future "Personality" screen will give more insight on what's going on, but since this is a major development, I didn't want to start working on it now and postpone the release for more time.
Phone: I did a bit of an overhaul on the phone so other characters can talk between each other, the previous version didn't have that, and I upgraded its graphics. I don't plan to add more functionalities to it; I think this is enough to convey what it needs to convey.
Main Menu music was upgraded.
Ambience volume was properly implemented (now it has a use!)
The timing sheet was updated to reflect the name you picked.
Exe Icon now works (Thanks nuii)
(If I remember something more I'll edit this post)
