Imagine Lifetimes - Early Edition: Update 1.1.0 release notes (Dec. 28)


Imagine Lifetimes - Early Edition
Version number: 1.1.0
Release date: 28-12-2019 (coming soon)


This update to the Early Edition marks the completion of the early access build.

Development of the Deadly Edition has officially begun! I'm oh-so excited to take this passion project to another level over the course of 2020.

The Early Edition (free) will remain available forever, over time it will receive minor fixes and additional language support. New content and major updates to the game will be exclusively added to the Deadly Edition (paid).

If you enjoyed the early access build consider supporting this project by purchasing the Deadly Edition (coming in 2020) here on GameJolt. <3


New Content:

  • Added 1 secret conclusion to the Early Edition

  • Added 3 new endings to the game

  • Note: in addition to the 6 previously released endings this adds up to a total of 10 unique endings now available in-game

  • Added the Politician career option

  • Added 2 new mini-games to the game

  • Added a progression tracker to the game


New Options Menu:

  • Re-worked the first words choice by turning it into the options menu, allowing you to set your preferences at the start of the game

  • Added the quick-play option (see improved replay-ability)

  • Added the translation option

  • Note: translations affect all in-game texts with the exception of subtitles

  • Added the subtitles option

  • Note: currently available languages are English (US), English (UK) and Dutch.


Improved Replay-ability:

  • Note: after completing at least one playthrough the quick-play option will become available in the options menu, allowing you to randomly generate a childhood.

  • Shortened parts of the game on the second playthrough and up


General Improvements:
