Future Plans for A Pregnancy Prayer


A Pregnancy Prayer has reached over 2,500 downloads, thanks for the support!   Ratings for the jam were released today, and while the game ended in 21st place, that APP is #8th in popularity from games from the jam tells me I've been patching the game in the right direction from the version I submitted for the Jam.  As for continued changes, I want to share what some of the various features that were cut or placeholdered in the jam version that I plan on adding into the game.  Adding these in would leave the game in a state I'd feel comfortable calling "finished" or "1.0"

  • Complex Status System - Statuses spawn logic will be influenced by blessings each girl has, with some blessings carrying the chance to trigger a status when used.  Others may affect the chance of statuses spawning entirely.  A good example is the pregnancy count blessing,  which by nature of being risky, would increase status spawn chance slightly.
  • Blessing Merging -   Blessings will merge to create more powerful variations. The merged versions will give bonus effects, such as giving more faith, allowing for higher pregnancy count, or act as saving throws against statuses spawning. 
    Additionally, the UI buttons will be reworked to make it more clear what blessings are currently able to be purchased or not.
  • Tutorial Rework - The tutorial will be reworked for the new features, and cleaned up to no longer be three walls of text.  Additionally, it will be accessible from the pause menu during the game
  • SFX - SFX will be added to a variety of events ingame to give the player more audio feedback.
  • Girl Visuals - The large blank space on the girl's cards wasn't an accident! Some visuals will be added for the girls.  Nothing particularly fancy, but some visuals just to help give the player more feedback about the pregnancy.
  • Thematic World Blessings - The "Bless Worldwide fertility" button is a placeholder, the original intention was to have a separate screen that would show a variety of blessings and each having a text description describing the positive impact they are having on the world

There's no real timeline on these updates beyond "Soon(tm)", but they are coming.  If you have any other suggestions for changes. Feel free to let me know!
