(Help Wanted!)

Update Post: 11/25/24

Hello again everybody, it's update time yet again! Let's get straight into it, shall we?

Computech (Early Development)

I've given a few of my team members assignments that they're going to be working on over time, and so far those are still a work in progress. I've also been continuing work on my own parts as well, and a character that I mentioned previously is nearing completion and is looking fantastic!

We're also still searching for assistance with securing a programmer for the game, but in the meantime I was able to connect with another project's dev team to collaborate with them and also to gain some knowledge about 3D game engines. If worse comes to worst, I may attempt to code it myself, but that may be a lengthy process. But if experience has taught me anything, it's that with enough time and dedication you can pick up anything you set your mind to.

Five Nights at Computech: Classic Edition (Programming)

I've been working together with my additional programmer on this project, but unfortunately we've hit a snag in getting one aspect of the game to work properly. We're currently searching for solutions to this problem, but it may affect development time until we get things sorted out. Please stay patient, we'll get it figured out eventually!

Help Wanted!

Like I mentioned previously, one of the biggest things I need in order for my development team to take complete shape is to find a way to create Computech in a 3D game engine. I've been looking around at different programs (even discovering new ones in development that I didn't know existed) to see what would work best, but the main thing to me is just which program can do the best job overall. I've also mentioned preciously that this isn't something that I need to have right now because there are things that me and the team can still get done, but I say the sooner we can get a programmer for the game, the better. All that to say, these are the main positions I'm searching for, but I'll also accept other help as well for those who are interested:

Programming (3D)
Modeling (Environment and Props)

I will not respond to forms of outreach on GameJolt, so please make sure you use the proper methods if you'd like to hop on board!

Q&A

No new questions have been asked this time around, but I'll see you all again in the next post!

The End

Once again, it's a bit of a slow time for updates at the moment (I have college and school while getting all this done for those of you who didn't know previously), and that's why I want to let you all know that I'm considering making a change to the rollout of updates. I don't want to consistently make update posts where not much has changed, and I don't want to bore you guys with blank and mostly meaningless posts, so I'm giving you guys another choice.

I could continue with the current schedule of one post every other Monday, or I could change it to where I'll release an update post at the end of every month. Switching over would mean me and the development team would have more time to get stuff done, and more to share with you all once it's time to let you know how we're doing. One little thing I'll mention however is that depending on the outcome of the post, it will affect when the next post is released. If you choose to keep the current schedule, the next post will come out on December 9. However, if you decide to choose the slower and more paced schedule, the next post will drop on New Year's Eve.

That's all I wanted to add, so I hope you all have enjoyed what I had to share and that you'll make the best choice in the poll!

TL;DR

Computech's Dev team is getting work done, but Classic is having one major bug that's slowing down development. Still looking for a programmer for Computech, looking into things that I can do about it in the meantime. Your choice in the poll affects the rollout of updates, plus when the next update is released.

In Other News

Besides working on models that I currently can't show off, I've been working on refreshing my avatar's look. Still a WIP obviously, but I'll show the final version once it's done!
