And by "choose thy fate", I mean "determine what aspect of the game I prioritize over the next few months", because there's absolutely no way I'm gonna try and cram it all in one go.
(It may also determine whether or not the game's actual update 2 lines up with the original's.)
Turns out what the game actually needed was for me to take a proper break from development and enough time to realize what I had broken.
(It was the values tied to IDing what foe it'd be.)
It'll likely need more testing, but we're back in buisiness!
Yeah, we're doing this.
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.
First signs of danger.
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.
Suppose it's rude to come back doing polls without showing some sort of progress for it.
Suppose it was about time that some of these skills got a little extra kick.
Still have to address a few tweaks to layering and test some other sidequests, but I think that we're back on track again.
Save file stuff (sidequests, maps and "autosaving") might currently be a troublesome mess, but at least development on OCN is going pretty smooth.
