Read more below...

#jkr #devlog #update #charity


👋Hi! You might be wondering where we’ve been.

Well, first of all, I.M.I.Self is mostly a one-man operation. So when life requires me to prioritize other important aspects of it, I get busy! And while JKR is a lot of fun to work on, it’s also very time-consuming. This is why we haven’t been as active on here or on socials, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t stood still completely!

I’ve been busy working on and playtesting Project T-1000 (which we’ll talk about later!), hanging out with ours and other creator communities, and we’re getting back into the swing of JKR! 😀


🥳V. 2.3.0 COMING THIS WEEKEND!

That’s right! We have some new stuff to add and improve before Steam Fest kicks off, and some of these things you’ll find in this next version coming (hopefully) this Saturday! (Worst case, Sunday)

“Hiding” Feature Showcase

We’re working on some new features for players who prefer to play more stealthily. One of the features you’ll notice in 2.3.0 includes Hiding spots! These give you the ability to hide behind and/or under certain furniture without getting spotted by Roof Turrets and/or Security Guards (so long as you haven’t been spotted entering a hiding spot.)

We are still prototyping more potential Upgrades and features that enhance the “Stealth” elements of the game, and other useful one-time buffs, plus some QoL stuff that both new players and veterans will appreciate, so stay tuned!

End Screen Upgrades - notice the new prompts at the bottom

One other thing we want to highlight quickly is that you can now enable/disable and apply Upgrades after beating a level! This will make Upgrades more accessible and, hopefully, make them play a more active role during the game :)


🏃❤️Just Keep Running for Charity

Yup! We’re running a SALE for Just Keep Running THIS SATURDAY, and ALL PROCEEDS ARE GOING TO CHARITY! We raised over $70 for Heart to Heart International last time, so let’s try to BEAT THAT RECORD! ❤️

Project T-1000: Now in Playtesting!

We’ve been running Balancing Playtests for Project T-1000 for a research paper and to get the gameplay balance right for the game! The plan is to adjust certain gameplay elements to make the game fit a broad majority of playstyles, and hopefully, by Q3 of this year, we’ll have a public demo available for y’all to play! 😀
