UPDATE 2.14.25 - Game Page Revamp! - General Development Status and The Future


Love is in the air... And today, we show you our love...

...by presenting you a long-awaited FSDJ update!


Hello, everyone. I'm sorry this update took a little longer to get out than I said it would. I've been spending more time with family for Christmas, New Years and a little afterward, too.

But don't worry, we got back to hard work. Here's what we have been up to.


GAME PAGE UPDATE!

The game page hasn't been updated in quite a while, so a lot of it is outdated or could be worded better. So we've added lots of new screenshots, new description along with flashy animated gifs, and a updated FAQ section.

Let us know what you think of it, we'd like to hear your feedback.


Development Status

The game is in a really, really nice state right now. The main gameplay loop is nearly complete now.

First of all, we've made some visual changes to in-game text and window boxes. We might change them again but at the moment we are happy with how they look.

I added in lots of new items to help you throughout the game. Some of these items are game-changers, but you will have to look for them.

We also finally began to work on battles. We were putting that off for a while because it wasn't important enough to focus on at the time, but now battles are pretty smooth and lookin' good. There is a unique battle background for every enemy. There will also be unique battle music for nearly all enemies that you can fight in the game.

At the moment we are focusing on the janitor's night shift part. We've changed and added a lot, so there's still quite a bit left to do on that, but it's going well. Here's a screenshot.

It's still in its early stages, so details will change.

We have also halted work on cutscenes shortly after the last big update post. We will have to change some story details and elements to get them to work well with the main gameplay. Once the main gameplay and janitor gameplay are both solid, we will go back and finish adding in the cutscenes.

On the side, I've been working on some original music for the game. Mostly character theme songs, battle music and cutscene specific music. I may share a few of them in the coming weeks.


The Near Future

We won't be able to finish the game as soon as we initially thought, but it is certainly very close. We may be able to release that 2 day demo you have been waiting for so long even sooner!

For the next few weeks we will focus on mostly finishing up the janitor's night shift. Afterwards we will go back to working on cutscenes. At that point the game will be generally done. All that will be left to do is to polish up the game more, and add secrets into the game that we've been waiting to add into the game when it's done.


Conclusion

That is all we have to share for now. We won't have you wait so long for the next update this time. We plan to put out our next dev update sometime around March 15th.

We'll release small teasers here and there while you wait, so we won't be radio silent.

Thank you for reading.
