I've been working on the smaller stuff this week, such as bugs and missing art.

Next week I plan on brushing up the menus and GUI elements, and finally make some icons for the game. Then it's testing time.

I made the remaining characters, and made most of the missing objects in the Manor. I also improved the painting in the Manor.

Tomorrow I plan to make the open versions of the drawer, cabinets, and fridge for the kitchen.

The polishing phase continues.

I've been fixing more than just simple bugs though. I've also been putting hints into places where someone might try a solution, correcting artwork or adding something to it, and just generally polishing everything up.

I've updated the game pages and uploaded a trailer announcing my game's release date.

My brother put the trailer together, and I think he did a brilliant job at it.

The release date by the way is the 28th of November.

The rooms are coming along a lot quicker than I thought they would. Although I clearly messed up the scaling in the kitchen. I only have three rooms left, then it's onto the character sprites.

This week I've been prepping myself for entering the polishing phase by doing up the GUI elements and making an icon for the game.

I'm very proud of how the icon came out. It took me an entire day to make it though.

Now I'm onto a cycle of test and fix.

This week I spent all of my time coding in responses for everything I drew in the rooms last week.

Those are responses for left and right clicking, and using an item.

I also made a credit sequence, to give the game a bit of extra flair at the beginning.

Made the sprites for the Landlord, Farmer, and Drunk.

I think they could use a bit more improvement before I make the few animations that they have. I also still have two more characters to draw out.

I think I'll slow down and take it a bit easier though.

Well I can safely say that I won't be making that deadline I had set for myself.

That being said, the backgrounds are really starting to come along. You gotta love good old Deluxe Paint.

This week has been all about improving the artwork for the rooms. I've been adding objects, shadows, and foregrounds, among other things.

The game looks way prettier now.
