Being a little late for this, I figured I can talk about my dev progress more.
As for why this has been late, I think I just needed a break. I've been sick, tired, and a little burned out. So I just need a few weeks to recoup and get back in...
2023-02-21 04:36:16 +0000 UTC View PostAs from my last state of the game, this was definitely not much farther from the last release. I had to backtrack features that were lost from the corrupted save, and I think I got most of them back in. The key things are some bug fixes, doors at ...
2023-01-16 07:02:41 +0000 UTC View PostOh yeah, definitely almost published this with 2022 on it.
This comes a little later than normal for a state of the game, and for good reason. The last week was a little stressful with thankfully what turned out to be minor setback. Late la...
On December 12th, I released the very first look at my attempt to take a fresh look and work on a new version of the game that takes everything I've learned so far from the last year of game development. The story and nearly all of the dialog was ...
2023-01-03 07:56:25 +0000 UTC View PostIn my December state of the game, I announced that I had started a rebuild of the game, incorporating everything I had learned in the last year for image editing, sound design, and general game development in the RPG Maker engine.

2022-12-12 07:54:01 +0000 UTC View PostNovember was another tough one. I had released v0.10 to supporters and the main goal still stands. I'm trying to work on the story blockers that are preventing players from getting to the endings, as well as unlocking blueberry content.

In my deployment devlog, I had mentioned working on a studio name to roll the final release deployment under for itchio as well as Steam. I'm letting you know that I'm changing all profiles that I can under the new trade name I've setup. I'll be d...
2022-11-21 06:52:45 +0000 UTC View PostYup, coming down to the line. Here we are with only two months left in the year, and I have wanted to release the final version of this game around that time.
Reflecting on all the things that are in the game, I feel like I ...
2022-11-01 18:04:33 +0000 UTC View PostOctober saw a new version and a lot of developments that were exciting to me as a developer and creator for the game. It makes me think about the visibility as a player, and that it probably wasn't very much. I got to see new art assets for bluebe...

Referring to my version goals, most of this work was on a combat revamp, as I now have some npc artwork assets to work with. There is some dialog to at least hold up the introduction to it all, but most ...
2022-10-26 05:57:25 +0000 UTC View Postv0.9 had a lot of tiny changes to a few bigger goals, and it appears that some of the off topic changes at the very end broke save compatibility. Meanwhile, there are some highly requested features that are art completed that have been pushed back...
2022-10-12 15:11:48 +0000 UTC View PostHere is the last patch for v0.9 and a great launch point for the next content. I'm releasing this to all supporters so that I can focus on the goals for v0.10.
v0.9 had two main goals, and they were mostly accomplished by this point:

Considering v0.9 I'm considering story gaps as bugs, this is a small patch for Esteemed Patrons. The change log seems light, more because these adds are scattered all over the place. I'm not done with v0.9 either, so there are likely to be a few p...
2022-10-05 05:48:17 +0000 UTC View PostDevelopment looks a little different again in this stage. I'm not trying for some sweeping overhauls or wave of new features. v0.9 has been just a series of one liner changes and edits scattered across the entire game for story and dialog improvem...

In my September "State of the Game" I admitted some frustration with some lost progress from commissions falling through on a couple of possibly new themes.
Well... here's a little spoiler for something that has happened since then.

A patch version for the Esteemed Patrons, this one handles a few bugs. There is also some new functionality that handles what I consider bugs, which is that the puzzles in the game are poorly explained. In addition to rewriting the dialog around t...
