I think I've reached the point where I'm sad & I need to finish this game & move on to something else, so I'm going to try speedrunning the rest of it & put band-aids on the biggest problems.
For example, I'm making a map now to fix the big map size.
Next up
Sorry for the lack of recent updates - it's now either big things like cutscenes that I haven't finished yet, or small things to sprinkle up a scene. Or the main menu. It's not finished yet, but I'm almost done with the cave in the game. Check it out!
Finally, SCP-3199 is done!
I've released the game on itch.io, but I'll be starting a discounted 31.99% sale tomorrow at noon, so wait until then for the best deal!
No rest for the wicked! I'm already deep into my next game, an adaptation of "Diary of a Madman." The writing's done, and I'm about halfway done with the illustrations now. I'm guessing the project should be done by the end of July, so stay tuned!
Almost done with all the images! After that, it's adding some SFX, and it should be all ready to go!
OK. After some terrible burnout last week, I'm almost done with the penultimate animation - 3199 being "born"! What's that Jeremy Clarkson quote? "Sometimes my genius...it almost frightens me." Game should finally be wrapped up in a couple weeks or so!
Thought the map was a little small (I could run from one edge to the other in 1 min.) so I redid the whole size of the map - from 700 x 700 to 1000 x 1000. Conversion took a little while, but it honestly wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
For those wondering why I'm using the PS1 retro style, it's because I'm trying to paint the materials in Blender & I'm absolutely awful at it. The graphics are just hiding my chop-job texture work. Cutscenes are up, and it's exhausting. Bear with me!
Alright, so maybe 1-2 more weeks - but it WILL be before the end of June, I promise!
Finished the "Epilogue" section in 1 fell swoop today - just text across the screen. Also added "Game Options" earlier in the week.
Map progress going quickly, I just finished code so that you can "discover" the locations on the map. Now to add this code to every landmark, and time to move on to proper polishing.
Getting lost in the dark, so I added a working compass on the map screen - it does help a bit. I also need to re-rig the 3199 model because all of the animations broke & now it can only do the chicken dance. Don't ask me how that happened, I have no idea.
