TimelineTown

Automatic backup & restore Your save is now backed up to your PC automatically — every few minutes, when you close the game, and right before character creation. If a save is ever lost or partially corrupted, the game asks "Restore from backup?" on the next launch so you can recover it. Manual backup/restore is also available under Settings → Data. Other improvements - Performance — optimized so the game stays smooth even as your save grows (less stutter at high levels and during fast-forward). - Read-aloud — added a voice check and test read-aloud under Settings, plus expanded guidance for PCs with no voices installed. Names are read more consistently across DMs, news, posts, and talk events. - Display — minigame and news text now stays at a readable size regardless of your text-size setting; the DM and card-game screens are taller so they no longer scroll. - Bug fix — fixed a problem where timeline news rarely appeared once a save got large (high level / fast-forward).

New update is here! Text-to-Speech Support Added Posts and news articles can now be read aloud The Japanese version also includes custom pronunciation settings Seasonal Events Added New date-based events have arrived, including Tanabata and Halloween More seasonal events are planned for future updates! Thank you for playing TimelineTown!

Update 0.2.3 is here The timeline just got livelier — and a lot more alive. This update brings big improvements to news reactions, read-aloud, and seasonal events. New News & Reactions NPCs now post their thoughts on recent news. Reactions change based on the news itself (good news vs. bad news) combined with how each NPC feels about the topic. They’ll celebrate good news about a fave, worry over bad news, or smugly say “called it” about something they dislike — full of personality. News can now be quote-reposted, too. Everyday chatter has also been greatly expanded (genre-specific talk, gushing about favorite characters, friends interacting, and more). Read-Aloud Improvements The read-aloud highlight now follows the actual voice much more closely (fixing the line running ahead in Japanese and lagging behind in English). Fixed the headline being read twice during news narration, and the reaction list now displays properly even if you stop playback. Seasonal Events Added & Expanded Added and enhanced special-event posts for Halloween, April Fools’, New Year’s Day, and more. Lines vary by personality and speech style, often weaving in favorite topics and characters to color the timeline each season. Thank you for playing — we’d love to hear your feedback and ideas.
