DISCORDTRAVELER Devlog- December 2024


Hey everyone!

Been a hot minute since we last talked about what the hell we're doing, but... long story short, it's been a LOT.

First, we've got some bad news it'd be best to get out of the way.

Leaff, one of the lead writers/developers and the leading character in DISCORDTRAVELER, has left the dev team due to... issues.

It's very likely he won't be coming back, so we've compensated best we can and continued to push on with development.

However, we won't be erasing him from the game- what he's contributed will still stay as such, and he will disappear for most of the game after Section 1 (...but who knows...? Maybe you'll see him again someday...)

Speaking of, we're making a lot of progress!

Due to the recent changes, we've made a few decisions:
* More staff have been added to the team (Memenator and soon to be a few others).
* A few sections have changed (4, 5, and 7), and will now stay as what they are (...hopefully).
* We're adding the improved inventory system that was teased in DELTATRAVELER's v3.1.0 update.
* We've added a party swapping system similar to Super Mario RPG, locking the first member (As of Leaff's detachment from the game, will be Prism) in place and letting the other two be switched as the player gets access to more party members. As of right now (not including temporary party members for sections themselves), we've got 5 characters for the main game.

Recreating what we had in the original game is coming along nicely, and due to improved coding skill on Commander's end, progress is a LOT faster.

Now, for all of you asking: NO, we don't have a release date yet. We don't know how we'll be doing it, or when. Be patient. Please.

Oh, and one more thing: We figured with all the section changes, we could release the new and improved section list.

Section 1: UNDERTALE (Ruins)

Section 2: EarthBound/MOTHER 2 (Peaceful Rest Valley/Happy Happy Village/Lilliput Caverns)

Section 3: GG!UNDERFELL (Snowdin Forest)

Section 4: The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap (The Cave of Flames)

Section 5: UNDERTALE Yellow (Dunes + Steamworks)

Section 6: Rift in the Archives: Reality 6608-B (Hometown Ruins + Forest + Forest Ruins)

Section 7: In Stars and Time (The House of Maidens)

Section 8: DELTATRAVELER (Lostcore + Dark World)

We'll try to talk more as time progresses, and we hope you enjoy what we have in store!

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

Path of Kami: The Evolution of the Lore

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?
