Hello again! Hope you are enjoying the halloween month! I really love this time of the year and i thought it would be a pretty fitting moment to show something and talk a little bit of what's been going on.
I thought the game got cancelled...
NO IT'S NOT. Although there hasn't been a very meaningful state of how the progress is going, we are actually doing stuff behind the scenes.
¿What are we doing or what has been done behind the scenes?
So far what we have done is a good amount of character models and concepts as well as a document planning the whole game out before we even get back to doing the most important stuff (like gameplay for example)
We have planned out basically the entire game (including characters, game mechanics, endings, story, post game, etc) there are just very little things we need to polish before getting into making ACTUAL stuff for the game (assets, gameplay, etc.)
¿Why is the game taking so long?
The usual stuff like attending school, personal stuff, commissions and bleh bleh bluh
My laptop is garbage, which is the reason i stopped doing many assets for the game but I'm hoping for around next month to get a new one so i can resume doing assets and working on the actual game.
This is probably the MOST important reason of why the game is taking so long and why there has not been many stuff to show. First of all I was not happy with how the game was going before: there was not an actual planning behind, it was way too ambitious to the point it wasn't really going to get done, and i wasn't having a good time making it and i thought it wouldn't be as much fun of a game.
So at the start of this year I talked with a member of the team, speaking about how the game wasn't really going to get done and I was not finding the gameplay fitting or fun as it was. So we have been discussing and we got to an agreement of making the game SMALLER, HUNDRED TIMES MORE FUN, WITH A CONSISTENT LOOP AND A BETTER OR MORE ATTRACTIVE STORY. But that came with a little sacrifice, which was planning the game from the ground up and delaying the game a little longer.
¿So the game got rebooted?
I guess so, though, some stuff from the old version (Which is now called the restaurant version) has been recycled for this new idea of a game we have. It also includes a lot of new stuff like engaging gameplay mechanics, some new characters but at the same time familiar faces as well, a better story and a new establishment where the game takes place on.

YUP. That's pretty much it. That's everything that's been happening with the game in general. The game is planned to get much more actual progress at the end of the year or around next month when i get my new laptop. The game page will be having reconstructions when we get a good amount of progress or stuff to share!
TL;DR: The game got rebooted into a much smaller but better and fun game, the new version has been in planning phase for a while and it's already about to be finished, progress has been slow because of school and commissions and my stupid garbage of a laptop not allowing me to make assets and more progress is expected to increase when i get my new laptop around next month or the end of the year which will allow me to render assets faster.
GOODBYE!
