Text speed updates and some narrative/ending fixes
[ 2021-05-19 09:35:50 CET ] [ Original post ]
A few fixes here, but they're very important: some of these make sure the correct endings/epilogues play, which could be very narratively important at a critical moment!
- Fixed bug where sometimes clicking an already spoken dialog line would lock the game in an uncontinuable state
- Text speed has been updated, and setting the slider to max will make text pop in instantly.
- Fixes to epilogue texts not matching what happened during regular play
- Fixed problem where a critical email was sometimes missed during an ending sequence
- Slight performance improvement for main interrogation scene (basically I deleted some stuff that wasn't visible)
- Fixed bug where game got confused over whether player had killed anyone or not

- Silicon Dreams (linux) [3.47 G]
Androids may dream of electric sheep,but perhaps they dream of so much more.
Silicon Dreams is a game of conversation and interrogation; trust and betrayal.
It’s the future. Everyone has an android: a realistic robot servant. But what happens when those servants disobey, or become a bit too independent?
It’s your job to interview those malfunctioning androids and decide what to do with them. You’ll gain their trust, learn their secrets and come to understand their lives - their struggles in a world that treats them as devices to be consumed. You’ll analyze and manipulate their emotions to get at the truth. For these androids, the stakes are huge: the report you file could be the difference between freedom and getting shut down.
But you’re at risk too: your employer does not tolerate mistakes. Will you sell out these free-thinking androids, or feed your bosses false information to try and save them?
