Only 4 followers but hey, 4 is better than 0! Most of the updates are on the tumblr. I’ve nearly finished programming the demo but the music is slow coming, sadly, and I can’t release anything with copyrighted music. Kind of a shame but oh well. I’ll keep you up to date on its progress and hopefully we can get it out by Christmas.
Also, just so you know, this game is EXTREMELY story based, not gameplay based. Of course we’re doing our best to make it a fun game to play but there are some long conversations. I wrote one conversation earlier this week that just went on and on and I need to trim it but once I start the banter, I just can’t stop. Characters are funny. Sometimes they don’t do or say what you want them to do or say. I’ve noticed this most with one of Jack’s companions throughout the game. He’s just… not what I originally intended him to be. But I’m glad for that because he’s really endearing and I think he’ll grow on you.
We also got a new map today and holy guacamole, it looks SO GOOD!! I’m really impressed with the art team on this project. I’m not involved in the arts at all but I am quite happy to be writing a majority of the script.
What we’re thinking of doing is getting the maps and basic events all programmed and ready to go and then go back and fill everything in, from flavor text to tweaking dialogue to fixing bugs. Plus, we’ll be able to improve upon foreshadowing if we know exactly what will happen and how it will happen.
Anyway, that’s all for now! I’ll give you another update on the demo soon! :)
