Hello everyone. I have finally beat Baldur Gate's 3, which means that we can continue to develop updates for Writer's Rush. Adding female protagonists, changing the difficulty, balance and UX - all this awaits you in update 1.1.0.
____________ Almost all changes were made based on reviews and forum posts. Thank you all for participating! steamthumbsup

Major changes:

• Adding female protagonists. (I had to edit all 300 stories, but it was worth it).
  
  
• Increased game timeline from 24 to 36 years old. (Each segment has become 2 years longer).
  
• Increased difficulty. Now only one character is guaranteed to get to the next level (previously 2 leading players). Also, the opponents have become more cunning and smarter.
• Adding a speed/quality slider.
  
• Adding the ability to import a character from another save.
  
• The number of blocked topics has been increased from 20 to 52.
  
• Changed the goal of the second round "Write the worst book" to "Earn maximum prestige" (many complained that the goal of the second round was stupid).
• Adding about 30 new avatars.
  
• Adding a "random" button when selecting a topic/genre/audience.

Small changes:

• Added information about the version of the game in the saves, a message about possible conflicts of versions.
• Adding a "read" button in the news about the success of another author's book.
• A more visual representation of leadership at levels 3, 4 and 5.
• Added the ability to edit the title of the book while choosing the beginning/climax or ending.
  
• The division the volume slider settings into "music volume" and "sound volume".
• Editing the text of the tutorial.
• The "comedy" genre has been removed. (It was always blocked anyway and misled the player).
• Information about "if you don't finish the book before the end of the round, it will be lost" has been added. (The players were very angry when their book disappeared without explanation).
• UX improvement when choosing an avatar or when selecting an editor.
• The price change for editors.
  

Future updates:

• Changing the names of minor characters in the book.
• Additional goals for each round.
• Saving at any time (it's not that easy, believe me).
• Memorizing slider settings from previous books.
• Endless mode.
• "Normal" training.
• Adding publisher mechanics and tasks from the publisher.
• Contracts.
• Editing book covers.
• The perk system.
• 200 more stories.
• More events, including those from the real world. (Is it necessary?).
• Sequels (I don't know how to do it right yet).
• Hall of Fame, more detailed statistics.
