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.

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

So

We are under attack!

I was bored, so... ManutKat.

What you all think

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Levels' maps.
