Updates to 'Bloodlines'


It has been a long time coming, but I'm delighted to announce that the updated version of 'Bloodlines' is now ready, some of the main features include:

🎙️Fantastic voice acting provided by Ryan Negron and Lauren Tucker- not only does this bring the characters and story to life for all players, it provides those who are using  a screen reader with different voices to engage with that better represent the characters, their emotions and their intentions throughout dialogue.  

🗣️Improved Screen-reader functionality - that is specifically that audio descriptive text now plays when the game is in 'text to speech' mode, that will help orientate players who use this kind of assistive technology understand when characters leave and enter scenes, and provide context for flashbacks and memory segments. The narrator will also describe how many options there are and when they appear on the screen.

🖊️Clearer UI for textbox - to improve readability inside the 'text' box at the bottom of the screen.

🖼️CGs and insert images to improve storytelling - for key story moments, or when important items are mentioned, images will appear on the screen, this not only reduces visual fatigue, but also signals key story beats

⚠️Trigger warnings at beginning of the game - rather than putting them in the 'about' screen, the trigger warning now appear at the beginning of the playthough.

I hope more people are able to enjoy the updated version of Bloodlines.
