2022 Update


So it has been quite some time since my last update on here. Almost half a year!

So what is new?

Sadly, not much progress has been made on Another Realm over the last few months. Life commitments and outside work caused significant delays and generally, I just lacked any time to realistically work on the game and move it forward in any meaningful manner.

That being said, work has once again begun with a new lease of life, and without any outside commitments once more.

So, what is currently being worked on?

I am currently working on changing core aspects of the game. As a player, you're unlikely to notice too many of these changes, but for future content, these changes are necessary so that it will play as intended.

A few of the more recent changes are included below:

Changed how all chest/found items are recieved. Previously, they would display as messages the player had to confirm. They now pop up at the top of the screen without needing any confirmation. Additional pop-ups have been added for when money is spent at inns.

Achievements have also been added. There are a couple of hidden ones as well. Achievement may offer additional rewards as well!

Pre-existing areas have also had some amendments, with some being expanded on slightly. Story elements have had some minor changes to better improve the flow.

----------

Sadly, I don't have much more information to give at this stage. Once the above core aspects are changed and tested, story progress will start to carry on again.

Currently rewriting the Arena location and how it works, avoiding plugin use.

Once a troop is selected, you can pick an amount between 1-3 to fight. Unique creatures will always be 1. Categories will be locked until you reach the applicable game stage.

This video demonstrates the snowboarding chase section some more with the mechanics of it. You can avoid the snow chaser entirely, reaching the bottom of the slopes for the main battle. Or, defeat it multiple times on the way down for an easier battle.

Revisited the Old Ruins spot from the beginning of the game. I wanted a way to effectively show you're entering the interior of somewhere, whilst also blocking it all off from the outside. A little refinement possibly needed, but I feel this works well.

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

A WIP of how you can escape death. With a certain accessory equipped, deaths grip will not take hold the first time you should have died. This accessory state will only apply once per battle, and is reset after the battle ends.

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Wishlist the game: https://bit.ly/CritterCove

The full game is now released and is available to purchase on Gamejolt, Itch and of course, Steam. 

Adjust your journey into Timeland and make things a little easier or perhaps, a little harder for yourself with the 1.0.1 update for Another Realm.

Additionally, some minor fixes were also included and a Story Mode adjustment at the Scorched Tower.
