still chugging along on the update, things are coming together pretty well 😁 hopefully we should have something playable out before too much longer.

We're launching a demo for our game "From the Heartlands" soon, if you'd like to check it out we have a page for it here on gamejolt now 😀. Heal the land, build up your homestead, help your neighbors and fight back the Witherbark.

Dialogue is in, with conditional checks and branching options as well, its feeling more like a game already

some of the ledges and torches that help guide the path now. definitely much easier to find the right path/climb the towers now.

I have yet to beat the boss without taking damage, he always gets me at least once lmao. maybe you can do better :D

if you're interested in learning a bit more about us, we were featured in the february issue of Indie Gamer Magazine. he did an amazing spread for us amd some other awesome looking indie games, check it out!

Reworked some of the farming systems to help a bit with more accurate placement. so now the player can walk when they're tending the garden and the hit locator will change colors depending on if it hits something else or not.

in case you need the controls layout until we're able to update it. gameplay hint; don't underestimate how useful a well timed dodge roll can be 😉.

random post, but this is where 85% of the game was built lol. my sister is selling it and it'll be gone tomorrow, but i wanted to document and share. a little 'behind the scenes' type thing lol.

WIP of the intro cinematic. Still very rough draft... but now we'll be able to add cutscenes and dialogue, to actually let the player communicate with the townsfolk and learn the story.

Exciting :D

I'm bad at predicting time frames 😆 every time i think we've only got a few weeks left, something pops up to steal my focus lol... we're still making progress though, getting the village updated, combat reworked a bit, and ai improvements.
