An idea.

I’ve noticed that it’s taking me about a month or so for me to complete an act of the game or work on the extra additions to the update that it’s in. All in all, it takes me about three months to make an update to the game, and maybe even less if I’m lucky. That’s a bit too long, to say the least.

I’ve been wondering about the idea of releasing beta versions of the game - that is, short versions of the next update. I’m getting incredibly close to finishing up Act 11, and it wouldn’t be a bad idea to publish a version of the game containing that, as well as several other things planned for its update. Depending on how development on Act 12 goes, I might release that as a beta a month or so after Act 11.

So… what do you guys think? Should I release Betas of this update (and maybe v1.0), or should I just stick to a big update that takes longer to do? If you agree to the idea, I guess I’ll see you on Tuesday. (That’s the expected release date of v0.8 Beta 1, if it goes through.)

Quick update. Progress on the YTP Archives is going rather well now that I have the full version of the Vinesauce RPG. ETA January 2021.

New update for the Meen TC coming soon. Contains proper widescreen graphics and other minor things. Have a screenshot.

Quick Update 3: The Second One is about 90% done now. It's just finishing the last dungeon and bosses at this point, and then some minor tweaks I do before a release. It'll be released before Valentine's Day. Here's a pic to prove that I'm not lying!

Currently working on five massive maps that serve as the outside maps for Mind Warp. At 1/8 scale, with Kak. Village for reference. Whoever recognizes the game that I 'took' the maps from gets a point.

Version 0.9.5 of MeenTC, "THE Cutscene update", has been released! We got all the cutscenes now, and that's basically it. (Also, GZDoom v4.14.1 is needed to play this update.)

Go get it.

(A YTP Saga update log is ALSO coming soon.)
