I've been finishing off the objects in the rooms. There's only two objects left to do now, as well as the game's logo.

After that I've got to sort out the menu icons and the inventory icons.

I plan to take the weekend off though, so I'll do them later.

I've done quite a bit since my last update.

Finished the character sprites, room objects, game logo, and my brother's nearly finished with the inventory items.

Next I need to edit the menu sprites, fix inventory icons, improve backgrounds, and beta test.

I made new sprites for the menus, made a new icon for the game, and began sorting out the coordinates of everything in the game. The field and the map are done in that regard.

I'm hoping to sort out the music later today.

I've been working on the smaller stuff this week, such as bugs and missing art.

Next week I plan on brushing up the menus and GUI elements, and finally make some icons for the game. Then it's testing time.

This week I finished off the introduction, the animations for the endings, and started going over all of the backgrounds and improving them, having just finished the basement as a result of that.

Lastly, I finally added the game over screen.

This week I've been prepping myself for entering the polishing phase by doing up the GUI elements and making an icon for the game.

I'm very proud of how the icon came out. It took me an entire day to make it though.

Now I'm onto a cycle of test and fix.

The polishing phase continues.

I've been fixing more than just simple bugs though. I've also been putting hints into places where someone might try a solution, correcting artwork or adding something to it, and just generally polishing everything up.

Well I can safely say that I won't be making that deadline I had set for myself.

That being said, the backgrounds are really starting to come along. You gotta love good old Deluxe Paint.

This week has been all about improving the artwork for the rooms. I've been adding objects, shadows, and foregrounds, among other things.

The game looks way prettier now.

I made these backgrounds and the new Crepe sprite in a bit of a rush. Because I want to get it all done as quickly as possible. I will be refining all of the artwork once it's done. Adding shading and dithering and such.
