The Ballad of Equis: Blue Star

An apology for the long delay.


Hello everyone, I just wanted to apologize for the long delay. I know it's been a while and I have promised a lot of things, but I do promise that I really am trying to get back on track so I can finish making this game as soon as possible. I do not have anything new to show unfortunately at the moment, due to the fact that me and my team members had to restart development on the newest RPG Maker engine, RPG Maker MZ. The reason why we made this move is because it is much easier to develop on, more advance than RPG Maker MV, and we felt we could be doing a whole lot better with MZ than we did with MV.

So to explain what's been happening these last several months, I had just finished my time in community college, meaning I have finally earned my Associate's Degree and currently trying to find a university to move to. I had to pay off some debts, so I got a new job working for Amazon; it's not such a bad job, and it helped me through a very rough time. I've also been on two vacations last year, one going to Orlando, Florida, and the other going to Las Vegas, Nevada for my 21st birthday (yes, I am legally allowed to drink alcohol now, and it tastes terrible no matter which drink I got).

Hopefully all my troubles are over and we can get back on track. Finishing this game and publishing it is a dream for me, and I know some of you really want to try this game out, so hopefully we can finally get that demo out that I've been trying to release for a long time.

P.S. The only thing I can really show at the moment is a sort of concept piece of one of the characters' new design for the game. Her name is Ritsuko and she is the girlfriend of the main protagonist, Blaze, and yes she will be accompanying you throughout the game, just not wearing that. She was designed by good friend, Cade.

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.
