AN UPDATE????


When I first released this game back in the fall of 2021 - after a long fought year of working (mostly) from home and dealing with depression as one is entitled to do in the final days of their 20s - bitsy did not have any sort of built-in sound playback feature (I don't think??). I definitely remember playing around with a plugin that allowed for .ogg playback, I think? But when I made this - the largest and stupidest and genuinely most sincere thing I'd made since my MA dissertation trashfire - there was no blips or tunes. Bitsy games were just silent, I guess...

BUT NO LONGER

After seeing this crusty piece of semi-autobiographical ludic fiction in action for the first time in years I was mostly happy with what I saw, but absolutely hated what I heard. I'm sure the more authentic experience would be to play this thing whilst blasting (*checks notes to see what my musical hyper-fixation was when I made this thing*)...WOOF WOOF by ARTHUR (oh geez, she was really going through it, huh?). But for those eager to interface with pixelated chiptune phonoaesthetics I have in fact written music for this that you can listen to??? Whilst you play it????

What I'm trying to say is that this thing has music now. Basically just two tracks - one for the bedroom and one for the rest of the house, but there's variations on each depending on time of day etc. I also took the time to fix a few typos. Did I fix any bugs/logic issues?

Absolutely not <3
