Hey everyone, monthly update here.

I plan on making this a regular thing.


So, as you might've already heard I've been taking a bit of a break from development. This is a big project, and it's going to take a long time. And, for projects like this, it's good to take a break now and then and pour your energy into other things too.

That being said, I have still gotten some progress done since the last demos release.

I've finished the first cutscene after the bus trip at the end of the previous demo, and designed a couple of NPC's for the sidequest, as well as the building they're in.

I've also made a couple songs, though I'm not 100% sure if they're final or anything.

I've also been reconsidering releasing another demo (or updated version of the current demo) before the full game is done. I think that I've been feeling a lot more pressure, mostly self-inflicted; and I think that maybe if I keep things quieter it'll be easier to focus on just making what I love instead of worrying as much about whether or not it's good enough.

Quieter development cycles might work best for me, but we'll see. I've had a lot of fun engaging with the "community" (my friends) and making the ARG puzzles have been a lot of fun! But I think that it's maybe stretched me a little thin, and made me feel more pressured and such?

I don't know what to do coming up with the ARG for GUIDANCE, or for future updates and releases, but I do plan to at least do these monthly devlogs to tell you where things are in development.

Hope you enjoy them, and you have a good one. ^.^

Also I only said I don't know what to do next for the GUIDANCE ARG...

There may be mysteries elsewhere for the time being.

I would pay money to see bro's reaction to this.

@LUKELCS would you be so kind as to explain what the [[HYPERLINK BLOCKED]] twitter is doing in your eventing?

We are under attack!

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.
