Next up
This week I finished spellchecking the script, and I'm now alpha testing.
I've fixed a few minor problems already, a missing hint here, a bigger clickable area there. I also added an additional puzzle.
Next week is the beta testing phase.
The rooms are coming along a lot quicker than I thought they would. Although I clearly messed up the scaling in the kitchen. I only have three rooms left, then it's onto the character sprites.
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.
The polishing phase continues apace. It's taking a lot longer than I expected, but I should "hopefully" be out of the pre-alpha stage sometime next week and into the alpha stage.
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.
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.
Made the sprites for the Landlord, Farmer, and Drunk.
I think they could use a bit more improvement before I make the few animations that they have. I also still have two more characters to draw out.
I think I'll slow down and take it a bit easier though.
