Hello Guardians,

Discouraged Workers, and other all my titles will no longer shows up on Steam. For many years, my country, Korea, Republic of., has made a lot of effort to take care of me, but I didn't know about it, I misunderstood them as my enemies.

Recently I realize that my country, South Korea, was protecting and taking care of me. I was foolish. I have many regrets.

So now, I will close my all titles on Steam, also other distribution platforms. I respect the leaders and peoples of my country. And I know my faults, I made Discouraged Workers realistically. For the future, it is not necessary.


Sorry for my country Korea, Republic of., also the Steam.


Sincerely,

Lee Yunseok

ːseraphː Please don't buy Discouraged Workers TEEN at this time. STAY AT HOME with your family and friends. SAVE YOURSELF.

Hello Guardians,
I am Lee Yunseok, creator of YGGDRASIL STUDIO. This Devlog includes the December Devlog & News I didn't upload last time. Hope you like it! ːgayeonː






Like 2015, we've got the SlideDB AOTY TOP 50! Thank you for our voters and players! We will do our best! ːhyenaː





For three days, our TEEN version is ranked #1 of Top Sellers on IndieGameStand! It was my mistake because I entered the wrong discount rate. ːsidegirlː But thank you anyway! ːlhyenaː





With the 2016 Steam Winter Sale, we totally maid our third highest monthly revenue! Of course this is not enough to accelerate our remake work. But there are enough people to playing Discouraged Workers! And I hope people will play it again after we finish the remake. ːyunwooː





We used this for promotional purposes through SNS. This artwork is Kiss Me based on the remake. Illustration, and also the background has been changed.


We think that we have already shown enough remake arts by updating the Steam Trading Cards. So we refrain spoilers from now on.


Discouraged Workers is made with Ren'Py Visual Novel Engine. And PyTom, the creator of Ren'Py Engine, he has built a basic system that can be used by Ren'Py games for a user experience for a long time. And at Ren'Py 6.99.11, a new In-Game GUI has been added.

Up to now, Discouraged Workers is based on the Ren'Py 6.99.7. ːbabyshotː In the remake, Discouraged Workers applies the latest version-current version is 6.99.12- of Ren'Py. The basic GUI will follow a new In-Game GUI of Ren'Py. Of course there will be some changes that are optimized with Discouraged Workers.

Here I attached a working sample for first run based on the original Discouraged Workers, it may change in actual remake updates. Some buttons include tooltip like screenshot. ːdiaryː





Sony DualShock 4 and 8Bitdo NES/SFC controller support has been added based on the SDL_GameControllerDB. More controllers can be added when we actually update the remake.

Discouraged Workers already supports more controllers than other Ren'Py based games, including the Steam Controller. ːyggricanoː

This may be unexpected for you. Yunwoo's moving, Ga-yeon's moving, and etc. In the remake, Discouraged Workers will include animations. Ga-yeon and Yunwoo do not teleport.

We can use/apply E-mote/Live2D and DragonBones/Spine to Discouraged Workers. So you don't have to worry about animation with Ren'Py. ːsmokerː

I said we will replace the Ga-yeon's diary to the each cutscenes with new CGs in the past. And now, we change that plan. The Concept and Diary Archive will keep the existing system, and I write a few changes here.

• Keep the existing system but because the GUI changes, the archive will look better.
• Each item includes a sketch-art that describes the concept or situation. This will give you a deeper understanding for the cover story of Discouraged Workers.
• The button for each item will changes to an imagebutton that uses sketch-art.
• Each buttons has a tooltip. So you can check the title of each item.

In this time, we need to check again for changes in the remake. This list includes things that we have already been completed or are almost complete, or did not start. The plans are subject to change.

• Add: Fonts for interface and languages.
• Add: New arts and animations.
• Add: More retouched-backgrounds and objects.
• Add: Sketch-art in the Concept and Diary Archive.
• Add: Russian support, Simplified-Chinese support.
• Add: Quizzes and Puzzles, Point-and-click, and Side-scrolling movements.
• Add: Easter egg -You can access some hidden content.
• Change: Replace the art of YANG with the art of chibilis studio. It combines the quality and style of art.
• Change: Layout for Archives -It will follow a new In-Game GUI of Ren'Py.
• Change: Replace all PNG images to WebP.
• Fix: Concept and Diary Archive.
• Fix: Controller support.
• Fix: Some retouched-backgrounds for the quality.
• Fix: Steam Achievements.
• Improve: Optimize with the latest Ren'Py.
• Improve: Apply a new In-Game GUI of Ren'Py.
• Improve: Directing dramatic effects.
• Improve: More basic controller support.
• Release: Official Trailer -Discouraged Workers haven't official trailer yet.
• Release: Digital Books DLC.

Thank you for read this announcement. Happy New Year. Then, I'll be back soon. ːseraphː
