New Demo With Audio!


Hello everybody! The latest version of Boiling Over, v0.32 is now available!

The most significant addition is that of both music and sound to the game. Though not all scenes have music and not all interactions have sound effects, we are very proud of what we have added and will be continuing to add more audio to the game over the next several months.  The complete changelog can be read down below.

If you happen to play this latest version, please take a moment to fill out our latest survey, which asks specific questions focused on both the audio and the story changes we have made.

It maybe be a bit before our next update, but there will be plenty of new content next time! Stay tuned!


New Stuff

  • Audio tracks have been added to the game for Hazel's Bedroom, Jezebel, Sharon, and the Coffee shop
  • Sound effects have been added to each coffee-shop mini-game and to the bullet journal
  • A new story scene between Brew and Hazel has been added

Changes

  • Schedule has been shortened to four days

  • Story Events have been slightly rearranged

  • The prologue has been rewritten entirely

  • Intrusive Thoughts have been removed

  • Balancing changes to make the coffee shop more heavily affect stamina in the long-term

Improvements

  • Cyrus's dialogue on Hazel's computer is no longer chosen at random

Known Issues

  • During the tutorial, the coffee cup background of the Order Indicator can disappear, showing only the ingredients.
  • Music starts and stops repeatedly while selecting tasks that are in Hazel's bedroom.
  • Customers start arriving before Sharon finishes talking
  • Hazel can move around during the tutorial dialogue (I thought we fixed this bug ONCE AND FOR ALL)
  • Though you can restart the game by pressing ESC and going to the main menu, the final screen after completing the schedule looks buggy.
