I've played SS on and off all weekend, and I think all the major bugs have been squashed!

There's a couple of minor ones:

If a girl is killed by the recluse's curse, she also shows up in the morning reports as killed by "."

If the Drone is dead, the Queen goes voracious, which means the Newshound now has a 25% chance of spotting something's amiss with her. However, for some reason the same thing applies if she is told to snoop on herself, which can result in her getting herself hung. A bit weird, but there we are.

So I'll deal with those for the next update, and what I want to add (in no special order) includes:

Instructions, for people who haven't played before it might be a bit baffling.

More flavour text in the girl's letters and reports as there's not that many variations at the moment.

A better morning report phase, at the moment it just says "X is dead, killed by the Y". I'd like to have more descriptive and varied options there.

An intro story and more interesting WIN and LOSE events. They're very basic at the moment.

Include some 'Challenge Modes' for one player, much the same as Slaughter Horse had.

Although I've put some achievements in, for me at least Google Play doesn't connect atm. This is nothing unusual, I've never had an app yet where it worked the first time. Hopefully I can fix that in a future update (again).

I wrote the game so it can handle alternative languages, which was a big request for Slaughter Horse. As I don't know any, I'd probably have to use Google Translate to start with so who knows how that'll read but maybe I can hire someone later on to fix it up.

Pass and play, where up to three people (representing the school, the Gholas and Violet) can play on the same device. If that works, I can look at local and then remote multiplayer. Playing Violet might be a bit humdrum for a human, so playing her will have some special rules, i.e. to win you have to kill the Gholas as well as the girls. The Gholas can't kill you, so they'll have to find a way to expose you to the school if they discover you. You'll also only be able to kill the Queen if you use 'Regicide' mode and you only get one shot, so you'll need to be sure it's her or risk exposure!

Alternate avatars; if the game does OK, I'd like to commission some artists to make alternate avatar sets which will be available as DLC. I also plan to add a 'Pony' avatar set, which is unlocked by rating the game, as an homage to Slaughter Horse. As well as that, I'd like to look at a 'User Custom' option, where you can upload images from your own device (your friends, family, cat, etc.) and use them as avatars too. The names will also be customisable.

Possibly fiddliest of all would be an attempt to write some AI for the school, so you have the option of playing as the Gholas or Violet in single player. Not sure how well I could pull that off as the deductions the school has to make are far more complex than the bad guys, but I can probably get something working.

And finally, with the next build I'll upload a windows version of the game here on Gamejolt, so you can play on your PC. I've also toyed with the idea of putting it out on Steam, although to do that it would need a different format as I doubt the current portrait aspect of the mobile version would go down too well!

Some of these ideas would involve quite an extra amount of work, so it might depend on how many users the game gets - it has about 47 right now, but that's not actually that bad at this point. It always seems to take at least a month for an app to properly filter through the system and start picking up a decent amount of downloads.

If there's anything you would like to see added to the game that I haven't mentioned, please feel free to comment them here or mail me at [email protected]

Happy hunting!
