I've made all of the rooms, and I'm now working on the sprites. Today I refined the front-facing pose for Crepe, and then made all of the other poses that I use throughout the game. So unless I decide to refine her a bit more, she's essentially complete.
Next up
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.
I've done quite a bit since my last update.
Finished the character sprites, room objects, game logo, and my brother's nearly finished with the inventory items.
Next I need to edit the menu sprites, fix inventory icons, improve backgrounds, and beta test.
This week I finished spellchecking the script, and I'm now alpha testing.
I've fixed a few minor problems already, a missing hint here, a bigger clickable area there. I also added an additional puzzle.
Next week is the beta testing phase.
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.
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.
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.
The Steam store page for Rowen's Grand Adventure is now live!

Give it a visit and add it to your wishlist.
The polishing phase continues apace. It's taking a lot longer than I expected, but I should "hopefully" be out of the pre-alpha stage sometime next week and into the alpha stage.
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.
I made new sprites for the menus, made a new icon for the game, and began sorting out the coordinates of everything in the game. The field and the map are done in that regard.
I'm hoping to sort out the music later today.
