What I have been working on


I haven't done an update recently but I thought I should share what I have been working on. I don't have anything to show right now, but I have been working together with a friend to write a story for this game. There has been a bunch of progress on that front and I can say that the next update should be coming out in about half a month. There will be two main portions of this update.

First off is the story cutscene. Together with my friend who goes by the name Offbrand, we have been creating some story and world building.
There will also be a boss fight. I already have some concepts of what the bosses will be and each will have different mechanics to beat. You have to beat the boss in order to progress the story.

Each major update from now on will have both of these things. Because these will be large updates with a lot of new things (and because it takes me a long time to do) they will be more infrequent. I will also have some people bug testing, so when we find something/somethings that need fixing I will quickly fix it and make a small update.

I also just really quickly wanted to talk about myself and why there has been a couple of weeks without any developments at all. I a small time dev who is still very new and I also have a job that takes up a significant amount of time and energy. I find it really hard to come home late at night and do more work after my physical labor job. But on the weekends I have been working really hard to learn new things and keep up my work on this game. For example I use the Unity game engine to work on this game and I previously had no I idea how to make a cutscene. A couple of weeks ago I learned about the timeline tool that helps creators make cutscenes, so I have been spending time refining and learning exactly how to use it, as well as making my own assets to actually use. Due to all of this and the fact that I am pretty much a one man team, other than my friend helping with writing the story, it is very time consuming but also really fun to make this game. But back on point I will be trying to make a new patch every month or so until I think the story and boss fights are acceptable.
