I finally finished the map that's been taking so long.
It has about 25 events, some with multiple layers in 1 event. There's characters from other projects, there's an event where you choose what happens, and you can find a different wisp depending on this choice.
Both wisps will still be able to be found in a single playthrough; I just thought that it'd be interesting to make it where you could choose to be good or evil (this won't affect if you can complete the game. It's just to make the events less linear, and the other events with such choices also won't be lock wisps behind one choice only. there will always be at least two chances).
I also added an event where you could get recipes if you want, because of where this event is.
And finally, I've added conditions for some wisps to appear, that way they aren't just sitting around like pennies on the street. These conditions will involve choices, items, and a variety of other things.
Sorry this isn't much. I hope now that this map is done that I'll be able to get more obvious progress done. Thank you for reading through all this and being interested in my game!
Next up
All the sprites that I needed to hand sprite are now done! I'l be honest I was expecting those to take the longest, but here we are!
A lot of the ending pictures have gotten lined out with some done, as well as major creature sprites, like the rooms it's currently not enough to show a huge jump on the progress sheet but there should be some soon!
I HAVE ONE OF THE LORE SPOTS BUILT WITH THEIR LANGUAGE! I swear it won't look like that in game, this is just showing the work. At first I hated that the letters didn't look as good if I kept them level, but the uneven-ness gives it a cute look i think
I thought I updated last week, I apologize. I've mainly been working on the ending cards, and I've been making some good progress
The wisps are all finally designed on paper, which was honestly the hardest block for me so far. I'll try to work on the extra details that aren't on the progress sheet in between working on the graphics and sprites.
We're almost there, there's barely anything left to go. I'm getting excited for it. I do have some medical things to deal with next week though, so progress (and so the next update) may be delayed
AND AFTER A VERY INTERESTING MONTH THE OTHER WISP LORE SPOT IS DONE! Sorry about the long wait, I moved jobs, got covid, some big bills, but this was the worst of it! Progress is back!
Basically all the maps are finished! So that's a decent part of the game done! The most tedious part anyway.
So the medical stuff was/is more complicated than I was expecting, but things are pretty well at the end. I'm mainly just adding the last bits of polish and code
All of the wisps are drawn out for their page graphics! I'll work on the sprites next, then the extra details not on the page, so after the next update following updates may be slow. I'm admittedly not sure I'm ready to be done with my favorite project...
