Hi folks! At the start of each development cycle I work on UI and core system improvements. For version 0.4 I tried to do a little revamp of the save system and set up a better auto-skip feature. Here is what you can expect:
Faster auto-ski...

I started these projects just for the fun of working on them, but always taking it very seriously (se...
2017-12-28 00:40:08 +0000 UTC View PostWould you like to be a tester?
Being a tester means that I'll send to you new versions of the game a few days before release. I just ask you to play it (from your last save or maybe from the beginning), then report any bugs you mig...

Hi folks! As I posted a few days ago, this version has quite less new story content when compared with the amount you got at [v0.2] (but it's being released just a couple of weeks since the last one).
There's no new full ...

2017-12-18 01:48:14 +0000 UTC View PostHi folks! I know that I'm in debt with the most generous patrons when it comes to exclusive rewards. I work on this project at my (not so much) free time, so I try to use most of it to produce game content for a next release.
Anyway, I think this i...

I hope I'm not infringing any copyrights, but just making a free ad for them!
2017-12-10 20:23:22 +0000 UTC View PostThere's no new story content in this version. It's just some minor (but important) system improvements, bug fixes and text revisions.
WHAT'S NEW
I have an almost 10 years old MacBook. It takes ages to startup, but I'm able to get it running Unity, and it can even generate builds of the game. Doing this takes some time, and I don't think I'm able to test the game in this Mac. But, if there are...

WHAT'S NEW:
Hi folks!
Content, dialogs and code for the second release are done! Now, it just needs a fair amount of testing to clean the most nasty bugs!
There will be lots of alternatives to complete this first quest, and it mean...

Hi folks! Got some good news this week!
I'm aware that lots of the game dialog needs improvement. I spend a fair amount of time trying the best I can to write like a native English writer would do. Yet, I still do lots of typos, bad grammar and wei...

Hi folks!
I'm focused on the next release! My plan is to publish it next week (or maybe a little later), and there's still some good amount work to be done! Here's a short list of its contents:
Hi folks!
Just a quick info: I added a mega.nz link for Hack'n Stalk 1.0 release into the About section of the page as Google Drive is reporting 'too many download' errors (which is great, after all!)

This is the first version of the new user interface menu that I just finished. I also prepared a reasonable amount of content and now I'm racing to release it the as the first partial version about next weekend!
This is a rehearsal for making-of posts. I'll start writing about the software tools I use and their roles in the game development workflow. They are all free software. Some as in "free beer", others as in "free speech" (it's a...

The first Hack'n Stalk had one single Player Character status checked on very few situations: Karma. Now I'm working on a bit more deep system with 4 player statuses:
Here it is ! This is a first public release to mark the start of the project. I don't even call it a game yet, but still a teaser.
