Bunny Eureka

Updated the visuals for the flower tea.Added some effects when harvesting certain plants.Added a new UI to the top bar that lets you directly summon a bunny to do a specific activity.Fixed some more bugs.I'm really happy that you guys enjoy the clothes-designing part~~ I like it a lot too~As for the next story, it will probably also be the final story.I still haven't figured out a way for the little pig and the island to interact that I'm happy with. I've come up with several versions, but I wasn't satisfied with any of them, so I'm still thinking it over again and again.I haven't had much inspiration lately, so for now I've just been working on some smaller updates here and there.Harvesting wood trees, flower tea, white radishes, and fruit trees now also has little fragment effects that match each type of harvest.I also added a new UI to the top bar that lets you directly summon a bunny to do a specific activity.This one is pretty fun, because sometimes I really want to watch a bunny do a particular thing, but if I miss the right time, I have to wait until the next time it happens. Now you can just summon them directly, which makes it much easier to watch the bunnies do the things you want to see.September is almost over, and the December deadline is getting closer too. So I'm desperately, desperately trying to finish as many features as I can.There's still a tiny bit of hope that maybe, somehow, this can turn into a fun game in the end.That's about it.Thank you, everyone.

New FeaturesI added achievements to the tutorial too.Improved some animations. Part of the bunny walking animation is actually a little Easter egg — sometimes they hop forward instead.You can now design new clothes for the bunnies. For now, only one outfit set is available. I want to see how everyone feels about this feature first.Fixed some bugs... I’ve discovered that bugs are apparently impossible to finish fixing forever...Design ThoughtsOriginally, I was planning to make a playroom for the little bunnies. I had already designed about half of the props.Then I suddenly thought... maybe that wouldn’t actually be the most fun thing to make.And I was also running out of time.So for the final big feature, I wanted to make something as a gift — for the players, for myself, or maybe, actually, for the little bunnies.This is Bunny Island, after all.I want the little bunnies to be able to wear pretty clothes.I’m sure the bunnies would be very happy about this feature, because little bunnies really do like pretty things.So this is a feature I made as a gift for the bunnies.It was honestly really fun. I even drew some little patterns for their clothes.About My Old GameI changed some of the writing in my old game...In my previous update, I said that game was too sad, and that I couldn’t bring myself to look at it anymore, right?Then I noticed its sales had gone up by +1, and I literally jumped in shock...Because nobody had bought that game in a very long time. (It has a free demo, and honestly, for most people, playing the free demo is enough. You really don’t need to buy it.)So I guessed that maybe someone read my last update, got curious about what this “sad game” was like, and went and bought it.AAAAAAAAAH...That was terrifying.Then the paranoid part of my brain started screaming and jumping up and down, waking up all the other parts of my brain:EVERYONE GET UP!! WE’RE GOING TO FIX THE OLD GAME!!AAAAAAAH!!!I DON’T WANT TO SEE SOMEONE START CRYING... GO FIX IT!!! QUICK!!!...

New FeaturesAdded an interactive tutorial for new players.Made some small changes to the storybook, added a few new illustrations, and added a new letter.1. Some Data from the SaleThere were no new players.The only player who bought the game refunded it.This time, the discount wasn't very large, so I thought anyone who bought the game would probably be genuinely interested in it, rather than buying it just because it was super cheap.I waited for a very, very long time before finally getting one purchase.And then they refunded it after playing for less than 20 minutes.(ToT)/~~~ So sad. I worked so hard, and the world still doesn't understand me.I immediately sprinted outside into a raging storm, ran to the dark ocean, beat my chest and cried dramatically at the sky and sea, then smashed my keyboard and mouse into tiny pieces, crushed them again and again with a giant rock, all to release my utter despair~None of that actually happened~⊂((・x・))⊃I wasn't really devastated either.Mostly just a little embarrassed... and then I suddenly realized something.The player actually wrote an honest reason for the refund, and it was incredibly helpful!I had never realized that new players might simply not know how to play the game.I thought that having a Help tab, together with written instructions, would make everything pretty easy to understand.But that's only from my perspective.I've been developing this game for years, so I'm far too familiar with how everything works. It's become difficult for me to see the game from the perspective of someone playing it for the very first time.Luckily, this player explained what happened.It was genuinely so helpful.So I immediately jumped up and started making a proper new-player tutorial.Unlike the previous text-based instructions, this is now an interactive tutorial that guides players step by step from the very beginning.Of course, you can turn it off if you don't need it.The game really is a little different from a typical farming game.Y...
