Hate Plus Compendium: everything we know about Hate Plus so far

[Prospero]

This is a brief compendium of Hate Plus content with minor speculation/assumptions. I'll try to keep it updated as Love releases more screenshots and information.

• The player loads a completed route from their Analogue saves to use in Hate Plus[twitpic.com]; this determines the story they will experience and also seems to draw on other variables chosen in Analogue, such as gender.
  
  
• Hate Plus takes on board the player's spaceship with a new interface[twitpic.com].
  
  
• The colour of the UI seems to change depending on which route you are using[i.imgur.com].
  
  
• There will be new logs[twitpic.com].
  
  
• The player seems to have to extract these additional logs from the AIs themselves[twitpic.com].
  
  
• Text search finally works[25.media.tumblr.com].
  
  
• Hate Plus seems to have a day-by-day narrative[twitpic.com].
  
  
• According to Isaac Schankler's Twitter bio, it seems he is composing new music for Hate Plus.
  
  
• Analogue's menu has been redesigned[twitpic.com].
  
  
• You do not need 100% from each Analogue route to get the most from Hate Plus.
  
  
• Hate Plus is aiming to be released on February 10, when the Lunar Calander starts. This apparently has plot significance.
  
  
• Hate Plus will feature a song!
  
  
• *Mute began to write midday reports in the 10th Year[twitpic.com]. This log also indicates that the Mungunghwa may have been a police state.
  
  
• *Mute will have a new hanbok!
  
  
• Hate Plus will feature 7 blocks of logs.
  
  
• There will be three routes.
  
  
• There's now comparison screenshots of Hate Plus early in development -- even with the oldest version of *Mute's sprite -- to a new-ish build, with *Mute in her new Hanbok![imgur.com]
  
  
• *Mute log.[twitpic.com]
  
  
• Log listings in different languages.[twitpic.com]
  
  
• Hate Plus title screen (?) *Mute seems to be wearing something different than either of her hanboks, if that even is *Mute.[twitpic.com]

Personally, I'm a little meh about the release date (Originally January 31st I believe, which is my birthday.) But I can deal with waiting a few days more for this one. I'm really excited about this one.

[Mistic]

Thank you! It's very useful to have this.

Only that it will be "significant", although I'd estimate 2-6 USD.

In other news, there could be a Hate Plus song.

[Kotonoha no Niwa]

Song! AWESOME!

[Mistic]

Wow, I didn't expect that. Although it's only a possibility, isn't it? It isn't confirmed yet.

Looking at the link I included, it pretty much is.

Oh. I understood that they're looking for a singer, that they don't have one yet.

Another screenshot of Hate Plus has been released[twitpic.com]! This one shows *Mute's first daily report, is only 10 years after the clocks were reset and that it's in Hanja. On another note...whose arm is that?

EDIT: The arm almost certainly belongs to *Mute, according to Love.

[Galaxies]

I can't wait for this to come out....are there any screenshots of PSY in-game???

[Spanky Pie]

Color me excited! Christine tells great stories and being in interactive form makes it even better. I enjoyed Analogue thoroughly and am thrilled to see what Hate: Plus will add to that universe.

[Prospero]

In other news, Love confirmed there will be three routes in Hate Plus -- presumably *Hyun-ae's, *Mute's and the Harem route.

[Boop]

Yeah there is going to be a harem route too.

There's now comparison screenshots of Hate Plus early in development -- even with the oldest version of *Mute's sprite -- to the newest build, with *Mute in her new Hanbok![imgur.com]
