Intro

Accepting features from version 0.10.0 and previous.

WARNING everything in here consists of spoilers for this mod.

As suggested by an issue, this page will server as a general listing of all the little things we've added. However, the dev team will not add features here as they are released. Instead we'll confirm/deny user submissions on a regular basis.

Also, please keep content in the current release out of here until 1 release version has passed. (Aka, 0.8.5 stuff can be added here after 0.8.6 is released)

(I'm going to divide this up into preliminary sections, go ahead and add more definitive ones remove others if it seems right)

Quicklinks

Affection

top

Introduction

Affection is a progression system for your relationship with Monika. This progress defines how she feels towards the player, by the particular ways you interact with her, along with how often you do these interactions. Your affection can change positively or negatively, depending on the type of action you relay towards Monika. Monika will act differently towards the player based on your affection level, as well as allow for special interactions if your affection with her is high enough.

Progression

Your affection starts at 0, and there are certain interactions that will change your affection, which can be positive or negative. A positive interaction, for example saying "I love you" to Monika, will result in a positive change to your affection. Where as leaving without saying "goodbye" will result in a negative change.

The amount of affection you gain or lose, will not only depend on what type of interaction occurred, but also depends on your current affection state. With holding 4 different affection groups that change the value gain and loss, for standard/normal events. These levels being:

  • Good 30+ Affection -> Gain +3, Loss -1
  • Start -29 to 29 Affection -> Gain +1, Loss -1
  • Bad -30 to -74 Affection -> Gain +0.5, Loss -3
  • Shattered -75 Affection -> Gain +0.5, Loss -5

Note: Once you change from Start to Good or Bad, you cannot return to Start, you will only change between Good, Bad and Shattered.

Daily Cap and Bypasses

Affection has a cap as to how much you can gain per day, with the cap being 7. Note that you will only stop gaining affection, once you are at, or have gone past 7. So for example: if you've gained 6 affection in one day, and had an interaction that caused a standard affection gain of 3, to have gained a total of 9 in the one day. You will not be dropped back to 7 on your total, and will have reached the cap of 7 or more. Once you have reached the daily cap, you will no longer be able to gain any affection under normal events until the next day, such as playing games with Monika, or saying "I love you".

However, there are special affection gain events and interactions, that bypass the daily affection cap, which are primarily a one-time occurrence. Such as the first use of each compliment to Monika, and gifting her certain items. The amount of affection gained and the amount of times these can occur, vary quite majorly.

Note: Bypass interactions do not contribute towards the 7 affection daily cap.

Affection Levels

As a progression system. It of course would have different levels and milestones at which you can reach, that will change how Monika acts, behaves and feels towards the player. These levels are:

Love 1000 Affection

  • Monika's feelings for the player are beyond our reality

Enamored 400 to 999 Affection

  • Monika is the happiest she can possibly be, and fully trusts the player.

Affectionate 100 to 399 Affection

  • Monika is happy in her relationship and is glad to have been brought back to life

Happy 30 to 99 Affection

  • Monika is happy and holds no feeling of sadness. Though she could be happier.

Normal -29 to 29 Affection

  • Monika is doubtful about the worth of her return to the game, but isn't swayed to be happy or sad

Upset -30 to -74 Affection

  • Monika is emotionally hurt and holds doubts if the player loves her

Distressed -75 to -99 Affection

  • Monika no longer feels loved and becomes fearful of her future

Broken -100 Affection

  • Monika knows that the player hates her and could not be more hurt, she's scared of being alone in her reality forever

Affection Unlocks and Events

Certain features have globally changes based on your affection, such as the different things Monika says when she greets the player upon opening each of the menus. The same applies for a large variety of topics that change Monika's responses, based on your affection level. Example being the "Mortality" topic, allowing for 2 response menu options at 100 affection, or greater. Or in the "Why do you love me?" topic, Monika has fairly disheartening adjustments in her dialogue, if your affection is low. Monika will also change expressions and poses at random, while she is idle or not interacting with the player. These expressions change depending if your affection is positive or negative, and also expands based on your affection level.

Goodbyes

top

When you say goodbye, Monika will say various farewells. Depending on which goodbye you choose, the way Monika will greet you when you get back. These are the goodbyes you can choose:

"I'll be going away for a while."

This goodbye negates affection loss over not spending time with Monika for more than a week. You can say that you'll be gone for just a few days, a week or two, a month, or even more; you can also say that you don't know how long you'll be gone. However, if Monika doesn't trust you enough, she might get worried if you tell her you'll be leaving for a long time. After you tell her how long you'll be gone for, Monika will ask if you'll be leaving right away, at which point you can either leave or stay; should you decide to stay, the second time you say goodbye using this farewell Monika will know it's your time to leave, and bid you farewell.

"I'm going to work."

Monika tells you to work hard, and that she'll be waiting for you when you get back.

"I'm going to sleep."

Depending on what time of day you say this, Monika will react differently:

  • If you go to bed between 10:00 and midnight, Monika will simply wish you sweet dreams.

  • If you go to bed past midnight, Monika will comment on you being up so late, with varying degrees of concern depending on the time, and should you stay up all night (past 5:00), Monika will be upset, and she'll tell you to go get some rest.

  • If you say this during the afternoon (between midday and 18:00), Monika will assume you're taking a nap, and wishes you a restful sleep.

  • If you say this after the afternoon, but before reasonable hours (between 18:00 and 20:00), Monika will say that it's a bit early to go to sleep, and she'll ask you if you'd rather spend some more time with her. At this point, you can either accept or decline.

"I'm going to class."

Monika tells you to study hard, and encourages you by saying that "nothing is more attractive than a guy/girl/person with good grades".

"Goodbye."

Monika will say a random farewell; however, if you say this at reasonable hours to go to sleep, she'll assume you're going to bed, and she'll wish you sweet dreams.

Greetings

top

  • Randomly, there will be a black screen and you will be presented with a choice to knock or enter the room. If you decide to knock, Monika will ask you to wait as she tidies up the place. If you go in, she will be surprised and quickly "cleans" up the room back into the usual classroom setting you usually see her in.
  • There is a random chance of a 'jumpscare' event firing up, showing a glitched sprite of Yuri, followed by a panicked Monika describing it as a side effect of her tinkering with the code.

Hangman

top

  • Monika will pick a word at random, prompting you to enter your guesses on what letters comform the word. She will give you a hint on who'd like the word the most.
