So I’ll get right to the chase, game’s cancelled due to a long series of unfortunate events, this time something that cannot be recovered.
In recent months, my anxiety kicked into overdrive and I lost all motivation for a while to finish the game. Eventually my computer’s motherboard decided to shortcurcuit during a storm, which fried my hard drive. For some stupid reason my new computer won’t read the game’s files.
HOWEVER: I will rebuild. I’m trying to see this as an opportunity, rather then a disater.
In truth, I was /never/ happy with Chapter 1 and how linear it was, and while Chapter 2 had so much positive feedback, in truth shortcuts were taken that increased the file size astronomically.
So now with a new computer, new tools at my disposal, a new positive outlook, I’m going to start over again.
I’ll say it straight away, I intend to have no random encounters in the new builds. Only scripted encounters. The game will be more puzzle oriented and less grindy.
