New Year! Progress, "Downtime"


Hello World! I’m updating on the progress of ARANA 0.7. So: Happy late christmas and new years?? Jeez, it feels like forever ago I started this thing, hopefully, and I cannot stress enough the hopefully, this project will be finished by mid to late 2016. That is an extremely rough estimation, please bear with me…
Either way, whats coming? Well, I’m glad to announce that 0.7 is nearing completion! Sort of. I’m aimning for the end of the month so again, please bear with me. This update told me one thing. If you’re going to change alot, give yourself TONS of extra time, becuase guess what? Your breaking crap, and I mean, alot of it.
I’m also getting a desktop!!! For those who don’t know, (probably everyone,) all of ARANA’s development has been done on an Acer aspire laptop. Yes, I’m programming with a laptop. It’s portable, but not entirely efficient. So getting that sorted and put together will be taking up more of my time.
Speaking of delays, I should list a reason or two why this update is so late: school (of course,) not realizing exactly how much I was planning on doing for this update, what I was doing for this update, art (IMMENSELY TIME CONSUMING,) and lack of motvation. The last reason is sort of a bad reason, but it’s true, doing these updates has been becoming more draining, but also more exciting!
Last note: I’m taking down previous version, or at least the ones on the forums. They should be gone not long after this is uploaded.
So, with that said, I hope to see this update get finished this month.
Thanks for reading! -Cpaz
P.S. Apologies for the formatting of the previous “news update.”

Submitted my game for the OperaGX game jam last night.

Would love to get some feedback!

(Excuse the poor gameplay performance, I'm playing for two)

Decided I'd give this jam a go since I'll probably have the time. After an evening, I think I've got a good starting point???

This Satuday we invite to watch another #speedpainting of our artist Daniel Faiad.

How great is this scene of #Pecaminosa?

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

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)

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

OK, this starts to be too tricky puzzle already :D
