So the demo should come out, either Christmas Eve (tomorrow) or Christmas day. Both later in the night (for me), it won't feature a whole lot of new stuff. Just some bug fixes (and probably more bugs I haven't noticed yet), there's some things I would have liked to include but I'll be saving those till the next phase of development. The next phase of development will be me taking any feedback, considering it and improving upon what I have and fixing things and making the overall experience better. This little Christmas thing, is just to assure everyone that:
1) There is a game and it is being worked on
2) I haven't abandoned development, and won't anytime soon.
3) The last demo had some annoyances with it, that should hopefully be fixed now (the annoying camera)
And some news on what the next phase of development will be like after this: I'll no longer be doing any sandbox builds, any new demos will be actual demos that show a slice of the story and what's actually to be expected. These will take much longer to come out, and there may not be very many (mainly to keep most things a surprise till the games finished)
If you saw the last post disregard it, Godot is now apparently working so we're good to go. Read the article below
Next up
Thought it'd be cool to show off what the first island looks like so far, so here's a few screenshots.
Final preview before I start implementing gameplay (taking most of the code from the original version). I plan to fully expand into being as identical to the original as I can be. (More info in article)
Just a little test recreation of The Woods of Light I've been working on. Not a 1:1 recreation, just made it to make it.
WIP: New Sky Based on the original screenshots/concept art. I'll touch it up later, but here's a preview
I need to just show how the game looks while playing in-editor compared to the sandbox I just released. So here's a short video. The differences have me pulling my hair out trying to figure out what the hell is going on with it.
Not Dead Yet!
Christmas update is actually close to done, I'm deciding to just drop it when I feel its fine. Remember it is extremely WIP still, and this is the last sandbox release I do till a proper future demo. This is not going to have a lot to it
I'm probably going to release a demo of this level, once it's complete. Just need to finish a few systems up, get some animations in, and finish the last part of the level. Will also make a little teaser or something before releasing the demo
Did some work on a new area, nothing here *yet*
Somewhat finished recreation of Woods of Light (won't be a level in the game, just wanted to have a place to test mechanics in)
