Progress Report (May 2024)


Hey y'all, it's that time of month! Today I come bringing some updates, and some development progress on the game! We also have some stuff to show for the game this time!


Development Progress

Development has been a bit slow recently, but I'm trying to work on speeding it up. We'll cover some of the details in the sections below.

Engine Development

In the past few months, I've designed a basic overworld engine and partial battle system. We're still short on programmers, and as such progress has been slower than I'd like it to.

I've been busy with life too, but regardless, we still have some stuff to show, whether it's finished or not.

Writing

Writing has gone well! We've written draft dialogue for several cutscenes in Chapter 1, and have touched on some concepts for later Chapters.

We can show a little bit of it, as it's not too important to the story.

This brings us to our next showcase!


Art

We've made a few sprites and concepts for the game, showing what some stuff could possibly look like. Now then...

Character Redesign

We would like to reintroduce Uffi, the sibling of Kris.

They are energetic and confident, willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish a goal. (at least, most of the time.)

Concept Art

I made a few pieces of concept art, which are shown below.

Final Boss Battle Intro

Could possibly be used for some sort of final boss in Chapter 7, not too sure yet.

Dark World C Menu

Some things about this will be changed, such as the middle of the menu zooming in on the party leader (if we can get that to work), and other stuff.

Early Dark World Items Menu

Very early concept for the Dark Menu. I like how this layout looks, so it's very possible that it won't be that different from this concept.


Overall Progress

Overall, we're doing somewhat well! We've mainly been working on cutscenes for Chapter 1, although occasionally we've worked on designs for a few characters.


Release Plans

We have figured out a release schedule for the game's demos! See below:

Yep, those are our release plans! We don't have exact release dates for the demos, but if those plans change, I'll be sure to let y'all know. However, I doubt they will change too much.


Route Plans

I've decided that we will have different names for the routes you can take in this game. Here are the three planned routes below:

Scrapped Content

We've made some stuff, scrapped some stuff. Here's some stuff we've scrapped!

Valentines Uffi

(see here)

Yeah, the design from the Valentine's Day card was scrapped. Felt like it didn't fit the new rework of the character.

Old Kris

(see here)

We're working on redesigning Kris, as well as other characters completely. I aim for this project to be a complete reimagining of Deltarune, characters included.


That's it for this month! I'll leave the Discord invite below. Thanks for reading!
