Game Version Changelog:

1.6.0

New features and content:
- Two new endings (with respective rewards) were added.
- Export/import functionality was added. It is now possible to save the game state to a file as well as load it from a file.
- A new ‘information discovery’ type of mini-game was added. The goal is to collect relevant pieces of information and avoid irrelevant ones.
- User experience was improved:
  - Several pop-up windows now appear more smoothly.
  - Two new settings were added to the ‘User Experience’ section, which allow making tooltips smaller. The smaller tooltips should be generally more usable and convenient in both desktop and mobile browsers.
    - ‘Compact wardrobe tooltip’ allows replacing the items in the tooltip with the available colors. In addition, the item name is hidden from the tooltip during the performance when this option is enabled.
    - ‘Compact session actions tooltip’ allows replacing a longer description of the action effect with a shorter plain list.
  - Wardrobe and actions tooltips will now appear with a slight delay to make it possible to move the cursor across icons without triggering the unwanted tooltip.
- The viewers will now occasionally give short comments on Ryoichi’s performance.
Other:
- Updates to endings were made.
  - Ending icons were moved to the ladder and placed against the level range in which they are unlocked.
  - The after-ending wording was rephrased to imply dreaming. The icons were updated. The time-lapse effect was replaced with a simpler one.
  - The game does not anymore recommend completing the second ending of the line after completing the first one.
  - Endings do not anymore require other endings of the same line to be completed.
  - Ending rewards are now listed in the tooltip after the ending is explored.
  - Endings can be reviewed after exploration. Endings that were already explored before this update will have one of the predefined Ryoichi images shown.
  - Clicking on Ryoichi’s image on the ending screen now takes off the clothes (if there are any).
- Related tasks are now grouped on the Tasks tab.
- Task complete notifications were added.
- Look/Impression change notifications were added.
- Minor dialogue updates were made.
- Total stats seen in the Game Stats screen will not reset now when the game state is reset.
Bug fixes:
- A bug with a stuck scroll position during the tab switch was fixed.
Side effects:
- New tasks may be marked as completed depending on the game progress.

Developer Notes:

Wandering Ryo has been developed as a pet project over many years. It started as an attempt to gamify existing art (various looks and clothes for the character) and later also became a way of learning / improving Javascript and related programming skills. The game development had its bursts and slack periods, witnessed various kinks and moods over years of development, and so may look inconsistent here and there, both in art and storyline.

The ultimate goal of the game would be unlocking all possible looks for Ryo, which would require ending the game in all possible ways (each completion being easier than the previous one), purchasing all the items, doing all activities, and completing all challenges. In addition to the PC brower, the game should look and work fine on mobile devices as well (landscape-oriented), and is available both offline (a single HTML file) and online (the link is available in the ‘About’ box).

Surprisingly, after all this time I enjoyed playing the game, which hopefully suggests that it is not a total waste. That said, I was the only tester of it, so while it looks playable and clear to me (and bug-free, of course), it may be not for others, so feel free to report anything that annoys or is inconvenient.
