Game
Choices are Magic
10 years ago

Remake isn't happening, V3.0 is slowly happening.


So, after some experiments with gamejolt (wheter it would’ve or wouldn’t have run the game in HTML), we came to conclusion that remaking the whole game isn’t a good idea.

What does that mean? It means that you’ll still have to install Quest in order to get it working.

The more stories I’ll make, the bigger the file will be (unless I’ll start to recycle stuff, like music, which isn’t that good idea.)

Currently, the size of the file that has 2 stories in it is 82,4 Mb (including installer, which is like 10Mb large)

I had few ideas :

a) I’ll start converting the music and pictures so they’ll be smaller (resulting in lower quality). Currently, the quality of the pictures is good, and music is in 320kbps (also good quality). I have no idea what the result will be, but it shouldn’t be very different. (at least I hope so)

b) same as a), but along a) I’ll also make another download for those who’ll want the HQ version (so I’ll make lower quality stuff AND keep the high quality stuff). The only problem is that it’ll take extra time to do both. (not that much tho)

c) I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing the same way, in the same quality, without low quality version.


I’d really like to hear your opinion. (in case there’ll be none, I’ll just decide somehow :D


Aaaaand now about V3.0 progress :

I’ve decided, the story will be about the same character as it was intended, but the story will differ a lot from original idea.

I’m already slowly writing story (only thought of problem, few endings and some details).

There’s a chance that the story will be less complicated than the last one (V2.0), so that means the choices will still matter, just not as much as they did in V2.0. The reasong behind this is that the complexity of the story (from developer’s side) was really disorienting and that led me to partly giving up on finnishing it.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?
