UI Update Preview! (Patreon)

As part of debugging, I had a supporter point out that the UI of Housewife Sim is really outdated compared to some of my newer works. Some of that won't change, but I had a lot of fun today doing minor UI tweaks and "playing house" to make a floor plan that's interactive as a map to remove the text menu!

The screenshot above is a preview of that. Now, when your housewife has cleaned a room, it automatically pops up the map so you can decide where to go next! It should make maximizing Molly less tedious and more fun! :D

Debugging is going really really well, way better than expected. I'm shocked at how good my code has been... I had some skepticism going in to debugging remembering my code from the first release of Housewife Sim, but I've learned so much from the Game Jams I did in 2024 and cleaned up my code so much, that now things are smooth sailing! I'm already around 1/5 the way through debugging, in addition to making the map, in only one day! With that in mind, I have a work deadline for my real job this week so I may be a bit slow on replying for a few days. That's ok though, I always unwind from bad work weeks by doing -nothing- productive at home and instead spending all my time making games, so there's a good chance I'll just binge-debug my way through this game starting Friday.

Aaaanyways, thanks for your support and sorry for the wall of text. I am so excited to get this game done and share it with you!
