development update!


so ive been getting asked a lot recently when hnr alpha 1 is coming out... and while i cant give an exact date yet, ill at least give you a little bit of an update as to what's currently being done behind the scenes

so first things first, right now im working on ironing out the bugs with the newly added features so far. id rather fix them now rather than having to go back later. ive fixed quite a few bugs so far, but of course there's still more than need ironed out. after those are dealt with, ill be back to focusing finalizing the last couple things i have yet to add.

ive added some very cool new things that im very excited for you guys to see. i leave again for cali in a few days, so obviously development will be paused for a brief period. but once im back, ill be focusing on alpha 1 until it's done and ready for release.

after that, i plan to start focusing on youtube some more. i have some youtube projects im really excited about, including the alpha 1 devlog. ive been working on this game quite a lot so after alpha 1 drops i plan to take a bit of a break from it for a while to focus on youtube amongst other things. (hopefully a long break than the one i said id take after the pre-alpha dropped lol) but, that's not to say the game won't be worked on again. so dont worry! this game isn't going anywhere.

with that being said, dont worry! hnr alpha 1 IS coming, but please do not forget that i am also a person. i have other things going on in life besides game development. game development as a whole is a very time consuming process, so i ask you to please be respectful :)

anyway, ill be sure to keep you guys updated until the day when alpha 1 finally drops. ill see you all later, and have a good one!

Next up

was testing out different lightings for fun and im wondering... which of these do we like the best? (5 different lightings with two different angles each so you can compare)

these are not final, im just tryna figure out which direction i should go in

question: how do we feel about the neighbor having a stone path instead of a dirt path? (or both?)

also yes im back and development is back hi

testing out another new concept :p

just out of curiousity... what do we think about something like this..? (old look for comparison)

or what about this..? (second design i came up with just now cause why not)

still not finished yet. still working on getting the sky color and brightness exactly how i want it. but how's it lookin so far?

interactable toilet. big changes i know!! (note: the neighbor WILL hear the toilet flush, but for the moment he is deaf)

absolute lamp

also, detail :)

following this post, development will be slow for a couple weeks. my girlfriend is visiting again so that'll be my priority for the time being. i hope you understand, and ill be sure to keep updating you all as often as i can!

how do we feel about the new lighting so far..?
