Hey, little critters! I'm happy to announce the winter DLC is now out: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3045940/Artificial_Fashionista__Winter_Collection/ As your vote decided, the 5 included outfits are: Santa, Reindeer, New Year Kimono, Sugar Plum Fairy, and Snow Queen! Thank you for your amazing suggestions and active participation in the poll! Since it was a really close call, I made the Reindeer look incorporate some of the "bundled up" elements. I tried my best to make sure there's something for everyone in this set!

Patch Notes

• Greatly improved image loading performance.
• 3 New Hair Colors: Ice, Eclipse, and Fir!
• Compatibility for new DLC items.
• Fixed the alignment of items in the Closet screen.

I converted almost all of the assets to a much more lightweight image format, which should noticeably improve the game performance. (At least for me, it really started to struggle on pages with a ton of items.) Unfortunately, it's possible this will cause a few compatibility errors (even though I tried my best to get rid of them), so let me know when that happens, and I'll fix them ASAP! Last but not least, for a limited time, anyone booting up the game will get the "Low Twintail" hairstyle for free! Afterwards, it will remain an exclusive part of the winter DLC. I hope you enjoy, and I can't wait to see all your cute looks! As always, the DLCs are cheaper together, so go make use of this discount if you haven't already! https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/45143/Artificial_Fashionista__Closet_Expansion/ Thank you for your support, and see you in the next one! (I may or may not already be brainstorming for the Spring DLC...)

Hey, little critters! Winter is already around the corner, so I'm excited to announce the new Winter Collection DLC is coming out on December 6th. Please wishlist it below! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3045940/Artificial_Fashionista__Winter_Collection/ Just like the Summer and Autumn DLC that came before it, this set will also contain 5 new outfits for Foris to wear. But this time, only one design has already been decided: Santa Foris!
The remaining 4 looks will be decided by you with another poll! With the addition of some fine fan suggestions, our available options are: Reindeer, Sugar Plum Fairy, New Year Kimono, Snow Queen, Bundled Up, and Present. This is where I'd add the link to the poll. Sadly, Steam has recently disabled links to other sites, but you can find the poll as follows: 1. I shared the link on both my Discord server and on Bluesky! Those links are just a little further below:
OR 2. The previous Autumn poll announcement has a Ko-fi link which still works. From there, just go to my profile and check the latest post! Sorry for the inconvenience, and may your favorites win!

Hey, little critters! I'm happy to announce the autumn DLC is now out: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3045930/Artificial_Fashionista__Autumn_Collection/ It contains 5 new outfits, some of which have been frequently requested: Vampire, Cottagecore, Rainy Day, Final Girl, and Little Devil! On top of that, there are also some new features for everyone, but first I want to give you all a big thanks for supporting Artificial Fashionista! We hit 2 really cool milestones in the past week:

• Reached 50+ reviews and gained a "Very Positive" rating!
• Was categorized as "Playable" on Steam Deck!

Without your active engagement, these wouldn't have been possible. Thank you so much!

Patch Notes

• New Feature: Random outfits!
• New Item: Coffee-to-go!
• 3 New Hair Colors: Pumpkin, Wine, and Grape!
• Compatibility for new DLC items.
• Various layering fixes.

One community member suggested a fun feature that has now been implemented: Random outfits! In the dress-up booth, you can press this button to generate a look with randomly selected parts:
The new handheld Coffee-to-go might be the perfect addition for your autumn looks:
And last but not least, three new Halloween-themed hair colors have been added:
I hope you enjoy! By the way, if you haven't gotten the summer DLC either, you can get both DLCs together at a discount! https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/45143/Artificial_Fashionista__Closet_Expansion/ Thank you for your support!

Hey, little critters! I'm excited to announce the new Autumn Collection DLC is coming out on October 3rd. Please wishlist it below! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3045930/Artificial_Fashionista__Autumn_Collection/ Like the Summer DLC, the Autumn DLC will contain 5 outfits. Three of the designs have already been decided: Vampire, Rainy Day, and the much requested Cottagecore! ...And the final two will be decided by you! > Vote for your favorites in this poll!

Hey, little critters! This small update made switching to the quick actions more seamless when using a controller. The default eyes were also moved one pixel to the left. Thank you for your support!

[ 2024-08-13 13:14:27 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey, little critters! This is just a small update that adds a few new free face parts:

• New eyes (squint)
• 3 new makeup styles (nude eyeshadow, rainbow eyeshadow, and blush)

Thank you for your support, and I hope you enjoy!

The initial DLC release mistakenly had a few more files than intended! They have now been removed, but those who already got them get to keep them consider it an early supporter bonus! So sorry for the confusion, and thank you for your understanding. I hope you enjoy the new stuff regardless!

Hey, little critters! I'm happy to announce the summer DLC is now out: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3045920/Artificial_Fashionista__Summer_Collection/ It contains 5 new outfits, of which 3 have fancy new sunglasses. This made me realize the necessity of a new "Glasses" category, which has now been added to the main game as well! Aside from that, I've also added a few other enhancements, such as better visibility of the cursor when using a controller, performance improvements, and more!

Patch notes

• Added the "Glasses" category!
• Added tags to the challenge menu.
• Split the look book into pages and removed the spinning Foris heads for better performance.
• Made it easier to tell where your cursor is during dress-up mode.
• DLC clothing won't be usable on your first playthrough (to preserve the difficulty).
• Your installed DLCs are shown on the main menu.

As always, if you have any further suggestions or ideas, don't hesitate to drop them! Thank you so much for your support!

Hey, little critters! I just dropped another new feature: Challenge mode! You can access it from the main menu to replay the previous challenges and aim for a new high score. On top of that, there are 9 new challenges for you to tackle, taking every attribute to the extreme!

Patch notes

• New Feature: Challenge mode, with 9 new challenges!
• Clothes you've already collected are marked as such on NG+.
• The dress-up booth now plays the right music.
• Wearing a set no longer resets the background.
• Made sure the logo won't cover your creations in wallpaper mode.
• The scarf now covers all tops.
• Restructured the main menu.
• Fixed a crash when checking your worn clothes with a different hair color.
• Made hair previews prettier.
• Fixed a few transparency errors.

Let me know if you have any additional challenge ideas - I'll gladly consider adding them!

DLC coming soon

You might also notice a new entry in the DLC section of the closet:
This outfit, along with 4 other fresh summer looks, will be available at the beginning of July. I hope you're looking forward to it! Thank you for your support!

[ 2024-06-10 22:24:43 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey, little critters! Thanks to a great suggestion in our community, it's time for our first feature update: You can now change Foris' hair color!
I also reorganized the clothes a bit, and added the new "Belt" category:
There are 2 new belts to get you started, and it also means you can now combine the towel with pants or skirts (and not just dresses/swimsuits, like before)!

Patch notes:

• Added hair color options!
• Added the "Belt" category with 2 new items!
• Reorganized the categories into "Clothes" (containing tops, bottoms, and bodies) and "Cover" (containing jackets and belts).
• Added the ability to switch between XBOX and PS4 controller icons, or turn them off completely.
• Removed Foris' toes from all slippers. (sorry)
• Added a "Reset" button directly to the "Worn" view.
• Hopefully fixed an achievement bug.

I hope you continue to enjoy Artificial Fashionista, and thank you for your support!

Can you tell it's launch day? Either way, fixed an issue where the dressup booth would stay open when returning to the main menu! Thanks for your support!

[ 2024-06-03 17:40:24 CET ] [ Original post ]

Removed the "DLCs" tab if you don't own any. Sorry about that!

[ 2024-06-03 17:25:02 CET ] [ Original post ]
