GUIDANCE

Hey everyone, it's the GUIDANCE "monthly" devlog!

I've got some fun things to share since last time! (finally)


First off, it's been a while. I took a bit of an extended break from doing much development for a few months, but I can say I'm finally back.

For over a week I worked consistently on the game a little every day, and I've made both good forward progress on the game, and improved some older things.

The section I'm working on right now has a lot going on, but I'm excited to say I'm finally past the cutscene portion and we're into the interactive bit! I've done additional outlining for the Studio and this section as well, though I can't show you any of that yet. Maybe someday after the game comes out? Might be some cool behind the scenes stuff.

Naturally, there's the classic stuff to show, new and redone pixel art.

I think a great place to start is what I just did today, revamping the cave mouths when exiting the Haven. The old "art" was pretty crappy, so I think this is a pretty big upgrade! ^.^

Aside from some minor tweaks, the only other thing of note that I've altered is the cutscene where you meet Charlse, which I take about in this video here : https://youtube.com/shorts/AX5FrSf8IZg?feature=share

I plan to continue to make these videos weekly, so if there are any topics related to the games development be sure to let me know and I'll talk about them! ^.^

You can find a playlist which will contain all existing shorts here : https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLimq3xjB4lad0rdGiSyM8vlaKOlrQA_MZ

You might be wondering what this section is all about, and while I can't say too much, I can confirm it will have both dice, and books. THATS why this section is a bit complicated, but I'm really excited to see your reactions to it when the game comes out! ^.^

As long as we're recapping new pixel art, I might as well mention the Claw that I made a few days ago.

@PrintedBore00 suggested I make a claw minigame, and while I don't think I'll do exactly that, I will definitely be using this claw in future puzzles. I'm planning on making test puzzles and trying out some different ideas, so when I'm looking for a larger playtesting group, or planning to release a public demo with some ideas, I'll let you know!

I've also made a new song, you can check it out on Sound Cloud here : https://soundcloud.com/luke-lcs/guidance-ost-mysterious-adventure-reverb?si=523d0d22d7ce4367bb3bc2e37619924a&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

I think that's gonna be all for now. I hope you have a wonderful day, and remember to Follow Your Heart!

Wow, this layout is terrible.

Well, if you were wondering where the demo is on Steam, here it is. But like- seriously, people are supposed to see that?? Shouldn't it be front and center?? What??

Started work on a bit of a drawing. Game Jolt asked me what my favorite show is, for #TVDay. Well, for anyone who's known me a little while, my answer shouldn't be a surprise.

Nobody spoil the ending for me or I'll Rumble you!!

Happy #WIPWednesday!
