Hello everyone, and welcome to our first Development Log!

This is the first of hopefully many logs we'll be doing in the build up to the release of Title_Pending. We'll be using these to show off some of the stuff we've been working on, share progress, and more! Since this is the first one we've done, we wont be showing too much, but hopefully you still enjoy.

Here's the Video Version:

NEW FEATURES

STANTON SODA

As we've teased on our twitter (go follow that btw) we've made the Stanton Soda vending machines functional. Now if you interact with one, it'll spit out an official JMC Branded Stanton Soda can.
There's no limit on the amount of cans you can spawn, so go nuts!
There's even a chance you'll hear a jingle after purchasing a can!

QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES

Here's some of the other quality of life changes and additions we've made since the demo:

• The Pause Menu now actually pauses the game, including Music and Dialogue
• Camera Bobbing can now be toggled
• The HUD Scanline effect can also be toggled
• There's now a streamer mode option that will prevent the game from using your PC name
• File chunking has been enabled, which splits the game into multiple pak files, to allow for easier updating
• Level Streaming has been implemented, which gives a sizable boost to performance across all specs (demonstration below)

PROGRESS

We've recently hit a pretty big milestone, as we've finished up the finale of the game. Hopefully you all enjoy it when the game releases!
Currently, we're working on fleshing out the story, adding loads of extra content, and of course, fixing bugs. We can't share much yet, but let's just say there's gonna be a lot of secrets to find once you get your hands on the full release...

QNA

Last, but not least, we'll be opening a QNA channel on our discord. If you have any questions that you wanna ask the devs, just drop it in there, and we'll answer them in upcoming dev logs.
We'll try our best to answer every question we can.

Title_Pending is a story based exploration and adventure game. Become a playtester and explore the liminal spaces of a work in progress video game to unravel the mystery behind JMC Gaming Enterprises...

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Hello, I'm Matthew Stanton, and I'm the lead developer at JMC Gaming Enterprises! You've been chosen from our list of applicants to play-test our new game (which as of now does not have a title).

Not only that, tech department said they made a breakthrough with a new device (they won't clue me in but I hope it's big). Apparently they're going to 'play-test' their device the same day we play-test the game, which is strange, but whatever. Anyway, please contact me ASAP at this number: (061)219████, or you can reply to this email, and we will arrange a time for you.

Thank you!

-Matt
