In-game achievements updateIve been working on adding a custom achievement system for future projects and decided to test it with this good old abominatio err,game. I settled on in-game achievements over Steam ones so the feature remains avalaible to the plenty of (2 or 3) people that buy the Itch.io or Gamejolt versions of Me and my Eldritch Parasite. This update also adds a screen where you can view the achievements conditions and your current progress.

The requirements for the achievements do not check for progress before the update (mostly because a system to check for that kinda didnt exist in the old version), so returning players will have to meet the Eternal Residences lovely hosts once again.
Additionally, this update adds a few minor changes:
- Reworked an animation in the bedroom area that caused slight flashing lights on larger screens.
- Go to sleep option in the bedroom area takes you to the title screen instead of closing the game.
That sound all, but, since I got you attention, have a self-promotion for the remake of and old game with a similar artstyle to Me and my Eldritch Parasite, but a more linear and streamlined gameplay (sort of):

[ 2022-12-03 22:48:25 CET ] [ Original post ] You are another resident in the Eternal Residence, where we all live with the company of out great friends the Eldritch Parasites.
And you really, really don't like your parasite.
There might be a way to get rid of it, but it will take plenty of tries. And maybe some body horror.
>Welcome to the Eternal Residence
"Me and my Eldritch Parasite" is a realistic game in the sense that you don't get any mercy for being the player.
Explore a randomly generated building and enjoy a bizarre artstyle made out of surreal photo collages. This game aims to use random generation to increase the fear of the unknown. Even if you learn every enemy and hazard, you will never know where they will strike.
>A virtual pet but fleshier
Your parasite has needs. Make sure to grab food and buggrubs along the way. Otherwise, there will be consequences...
>In company of... creatures
You are not alone. More than 20 types of parasite hosts wander the residence. Some will ignore you, others will attack, and they might have the same faces.
Be prepared to dodge attacks at any time in a bizarre game of bullet hell.
One of these hosts has taken a key with them. A key for a chest. A chest with tools that can get rid of a certain parasite. Find that host, follow close and wait until they grow up and drop it.
Be careful, "growing up" is not a metaphor here...
>Varied horrible consequences
So you just got some tools. The thing is... this place doesn't have doctors.
6 different consequences of trying to remove your parasite by yourself await you. Can you find the least horrible one?
