Hey everyone, Windy here.
We have a bit to say so let's do it.

-Updates are slowing down-
Due to factors irl (Mental health related), we'll be slowing down on making posts about this game. Please know we have a life outside of the digital realm of the internet, and furthermore we are a human being making this game...

(We said that last bit because several people, while we were away from the internet/game development, were trying to start something bad about us using "AI" to make our pixel art. We do not use ANY AI or generative algorithms for our art.

Our tools of trade for pixel art is: Krita for large scale sprites (Like sprites >= 360x360 in size), Aseprite for pretty much everything else, and Blender for blockouts of cutscenes/backgrounds (if we can't figure out perspective of said cutscene/background.)

-Please have patience with our posting speed-

We have been messaged several times about "Is this project even alive still? Where's the recent posts?". Normally we ignore those messages and focus on posting when we feel like it'd be a good showcase of development. However we just can't ignore it anymore. This is a a formal "From developer to Community" message to please have patience and to simmer down a bit. The project is still being worked on, Just at a slower rate so we can digest the progress and don't get burnt out.

-Please stop DMing us about the state of the game-

Self explanatory. While we would LOVE to share the meat of the game and post it up and say how development's going, we just can't right now. We don't want to spoil the gameplay of the game until we have enough (non placeholder) assets made, ready, and working for a gameplay trailer. So please, just don't DM us about that or else we'll have to close our DMs and we REALLY don't want to do that at all...

With those out of the way...
seeya around!
