Hello everyone,
So... The game... Yeah, well I have no idea why it isn't ready for release. It has been 4 years since the demo, and 3 years since I last posted a devlog on this page. I'm going to explain why it has been a long time since that.
The reason: College and life. Now, I haven't used GameJolt since. I'm fairly regularly on now, but during those three years, I have finally finished college, however my life isn't really as good as three years prior (or at least, I don't think).
I've been just up and down, like a ship in the ocean. A lot of things have happened to me to make me think about life. And I even thought about quitting game development for good.
Although I have thought about it long and hard, I realised that a lot of it was because of work load I had put onto myself for college. I mean, I did an entire unit within a weekend because I wanted to. And it had gotten to the point of where... I was stressed out because I was far behind on work, but I did catch up in a week.
----------------------------------------------------------------
So, anyway, now onto the game. The game WAS going well. I coded the first game enemy after the last devlog. I also got somewhat good at art. It even got to the point of where you escape the house fully.
Now, don't be alarmed, but I did put a pay what you want on the demo. This is due to me getting out of college and needing money. If you choose to support this demo by either downloading it free or paying for it, I will be grateful.
The game, itself, is super not done. I'm pretty sure that I didn't even put art in the enemy test. It's THAT not done. I'm currently working on the final main story of the Alien Takeover series (in which I have a release date (kinda) found here: https://gamejolt.com/p/alien-takeover-3-where-the-heck-is-it-plans-for-the-game-to-be-co-gzedxpnn).
No promises for a release yet unfortunately. However, I'll work on it eventually. I don't know when, I don't know how, but this game is getting done (hopefully).
There will be a lot of enemies that are fleshed out quite a bit. They will all have backstories. I'm still working on this alone. I don't really have a musician for this game anymore either. However, I will hopefully, fingers crossed, find a artist and a musician soon.
That's all for now. I don't know what else to say. I have gotten all my thoughts out there.
JSG.
