1.0.1

New features:

- The diary was added. The diary reflects decisions and impressions of Ryo’s wanderings.
- The ‘Restore’ activity was replaced with three new ‘Rest’ (1, 3, and 7 days long) to allow skipping time for a small fee.

Other updates:
- Experience will not be given when the player plays with the mask after the point in the game when it should be taken off.

0.8.1

- One or a few of the new dialogs may pop up when the game is loaded.

0.8.0

Gameplay rework:
- All previous body-related expectations were moved to the room-level requirements and interests, and are now displyed in the tooltip. Some of those are required to enter the room, while others would only provide a bonus score if matched.
- Opening an ending now does not complete the game, and allows exploring alternative endings without restarting the game.
- Clothes-related expectations are now sorted and displayed in particular columns depending on the target body part.
- Any expectations that were partially matched, or not matched, and stay for the next round, are marked with an ‘!’ mark and now can only be matched exactly (partial match will not work); this change was done to reduce the value of partial matches (e.g. bra) so that changing clothes was done more frequently.
- Makeup and wigs now cannot be changed during the session (let’s say, not to break the performance image); there is little value in these now that most of the body-related expectations are available before entering the room.
- More details are now available at the end of each session.
Balancing:
- Hitting the dislikes limit in the last round will now not fail the session.
Other updates:
- Clothes that cannot be used are now not shown during the sessions – to save space and reduce noise.
- Actions that cannot be performed because the partner is missing are now not shown on the small screens – to save space.
- Last rooms of each line now cannot become low-level.
- The viewers’ info was moved from the top to the left – to save space (the viewers’ block takes less space and looks better on small screens).
Bug fixes:
- Using the ‘no-scars’ voucher did not reset scar recovery and caused scars-related expectations not to work properly – this was fixed.
Side effects:
- The level may change a little (one up or one down) after re-balancing the leveling.

0.7.0

New Features:
- New facial features were added (moles, freckles, and face scars). The corresponding items are available in ‘Cosplay Stock’ and are unlocked on levels 7, 12, and 20 respectively.
Other updates:
- Grimacing activities are now unlocked in the opposite order (eyebrows first, then mouth expressions) to account that mask is used in low-level rooms.
- Minor dialogue updates were made to account for new facial feaure items.
Bug fixes:
- Areola re-positioning items were usable for massive natural – this was fixed.

0.6.3

Balancing:
- The currency gain rate was increased by 50%.
Other updates:

0.6.1/2

Other updates:
- Added What’s New section to the start screen.
- The notification box will now be shown on version updates.

0.6.0

New Features
- The game flow was updated so that all the content and endings could be opened within a single game completion. The game should now take around 4-5 hours to get 100% completion progress. For a better experience, it is recommended not to use the previous save(s) and start the new game from scratch.
- Opening an ending now does not complete the game, and allows exploring alternative endings without restarting the game.
- Two new options were added to enable auto-confirm items and service purchases.
Balancing
- The game progression rate was increased ~twice.
- The currency gain rate was increased ~twice (in addition to the game progression rate increase).
- Several procedure durations, as well as recovery times, were reduced.
- ‘May satisfy’ actions now have a 25% – 50% – 25% chance of mismatch – partial match – full match, instead of 33% – 33% – 33%.
- Few low-level dialogs and actions are not unlocked 1 level earlier.
- AI webcam now has no effect – it will likely be removed in the future update.
- The ‘Forget current wandering’ option was removed from the settings.
Other updates
- Removed the ‘do not suck dildo’ requirement from the ‘Boyfriend’ ending.
- Ending requirements are now available 5 levels before the ending unlock so that there was time to ‘prepare’ for it.
Bug fixes:
- Removed duplicate shop names from the dialogs.
- Fixed the ‘new’ chat icon not disappearing.
- Big bras were unlocked much later than the respective breast surgeries became available – this was fixed.
Side effects
- The level may change a little bit when opening old saves with the new version.
- Some of the already seen dialogs may pop up one more time.

0.5.0

New Features
- Added the in-game chat with the Club support, with the unlockable list of questions and answers.

Balancing
- Added two new settings options to make the gameplay more easy-going: reduced room progress score loss and viewer reaction projection.
Other updates

Bug fixes:
- Fixed the bug when the hidden shop was not hidden well enough on the small screens.

0.4.0

New Features
- Dark theme is now available
Balancing
- Escaping the room now does not reduce completion room progress – this was changed so that it was less painful to check rooms and see what is expected there; reputation and currency penalty is still applied when the room is escaped
- Unisex shorts now only partially satisfy desires to see female bottom clothes (we have skirts, don’t we?)
Other updates
- FAQ was added (available on the start screen)
- Dialogue reactions now have labels (on the wide screens)

- Small color changes were made in the session screen
- Various labels were updated
Bug fixes:
- Fixed the bug when it was not possible to purchase service with a discount if the amount of currency was less than its full price
- Fixed names of some wigs which had incorrect lengths specified
- It was possible to exit the game during club session – this was fixed

0.3.1

Initial Release

Developer Notes:

Wandering Ryo has been developed as a pet project over many years. It started as an attempt to gamify existing art (various looks and clothes for the character) and later also became a way of learning / improving Javascript and related programming skills.

The game development had its bursts and slack periods, witnessed various kinks and moods over years of development, and so may look inconsistent here and there, both in art and storyline.

The ultimate goal of the game would be unlocking all possible looks for Ryo, which would require opening all endings, purchasing all the items, doing all activities, and completing all the challenges.

In addition to the PC brower, the game should look and work fine on mobile devices as well (landscape-oriented), and is available both offline (a single HTML file) and online (the link is available below, and also in the ‘About’ box of the game).

Surprisingly, after all this time I enjoyed playing the game, which hopefully suggests that it is not a total waste. That said, I was the only tester of it, so while it looks playable and clear to me (and bug-free, of course), it may be not for others, so feel free to report anything that annoys or is inconvenient.

Thanks to the feedback in this thread, some of the aspects of the game were improved a lot (e.g. dark mode was added, gameplay was simplified and sped up, and there is no need to replay the game to open all the endings)

Plans and Progress:

At this point I consider the game pretty much completed (the way I imagined it at the beginning). There are features that I may work in the future if I have the time (and desire). These include:
