A small change that'll make a big difference


It’s been a bit since the last update, but I feel a new one is needed since a few things are going to change with how the game is working.

Ever worked on something at one point, left it to do other things, then come back to it and realize you did a poor job on the thing? That’s honestly where I’m at with the build of XL I was working on. It was working fine for the most part, but coming back to it now, it’s a cluttered mess of code behind the scenes.

So rather than try and redo a lot of the implemented code, I’m gonna be starting a new version of the game and work it out from there. The good news about that is a few things:

  1. I’m not put too far back work-wise on the whole project

  2. The battle system should (hopefully) be easier to assemble with a new layout I thought of

  3. A layout that I’ll have a better time coming back to

So from here I’ll be working on redoing the basics (right now I’m streamlining the main menu and party setup), though I’m not quite sure when it’ll be done. Still got a few other non-XL projects in the works alongside trying to remake this from scratch, but I’ll see about getting something out before the end of the year. You guys have definitely waited long enough for something playable.

Till’ next time!

I know it's completely unintentional, but I swear this is the universe trying to convince me to dig my old handiwork out of retirement and do something with him.

Can it be done?

(Also, Happy New Year)

Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.

That time of year again.

Got a (mostly stable) demo ready for the occasion!

Still have to address a few tweaks to layering and test some other sidequests, but I think that we're back on track again.

Suppose it's rude to come back doing polls without showing some sort of progress for it.

While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.

I might be having too much fun with this process...
