What HAPPENED to Depper Jar??


TORTAS YOU'RE BACK?!?!

I never left, I was just too lazy to make devlogs.

ARE YOU STILL WORKING ON THE GAME?!

Yes.

... ARE WE STILL GETTING TEST 2?!

Yes.

I literally look like this while writting this

That's right, we are still working on it!

Yes, I said WE!

I'm still the main guy of the project that does most of the work (except music), but this project couldn't have been posible without the help of this dudes:

Ray "TheRadGuy" Mike
He makes GODLIKE music and he's a pretty chill dude.
He's the main composer of Test 2 and everything that sounds good in the game is made by him.

He has been my right hand throught all the project ever since he joined, he gives me feedback about everything I share behind the scenes and he's an amazing sprite artist.

Xeron
I haven't ask him to do that much work unlike the others because he's a really talented person that works in alot of other projects too, go check his stuff!

I have a confesion to say now. I didn't start working on the actual content of Test 2 until the end of 2022.

So yeah, Test 2 has been in development for only pretty much 8 - 10 months and mostly only made by me.

TORTAS DO YOU THINK THE GAME IS GOING TO RELEASE THIS YEAR?

Probably no. I was looking for a December release but there's still so much left to do so that's probably not going to happen.

CAN YOU GIVE US A GENERAL PROGRESS REPORT?

Okay now that's what I wanted to hear!

General progress report

  • ALL the Z actions have been completely reworked

  • The HUD has been changed to fit with the new style of the game

  • Did some tweeks to the Battle system like fixing the Jump attack and Blade defending

  • All Test 2's Equipment is done

  • All Test 2's Items are done (probably)

  • The first two Test 2's zones of the game are partially done besides cutscenes, encounters and interactions

  • All Test 2's enemies are done

  • I'm currently working on the Test 2's third zone design and puzzles

  • I'm currently working on the first Test 2's cutscenes of the game

  • Did some general tweeks to Test 1

Hi everyone, uhh, this is Tortas from the future, originally there was a big announcement here regarding the future of the project, a Patreon page and a Discord server. I'm gonna explain why I changed my mind again in the next devlog


And so, we have reached the end of the devlog, but don't worry, you'll probably won't need to wait another 10 months for the next Depper Jar update progress (hehehe...)

Until then, take care of yourself.
