(This blog post is a extended version of a comment I posted on June 14th.)
So, uh… yeah. An entire year has passed since the first DLC of the YouTube Poop Saga, with no updates in-between. I’ve been neglecting the game quite badly, and I apologize for that.
You see, I’ve been working on other projects that I had always wanted to do, but couldn’t because of personal stuff and the Saga. Probably the biggest of these are the CD-i Zelda sprite rips. They’re exactly what you expect - full sprite and cutscene rips of the Animation Magic Zelda games, located on the Spriters’ Resource. Even after over a year of working on the rips, they’re still not done - the enemies and maps aren’t uploaded yet, and there’s some Zelda’s Adventure rips I want to finish.
But the work left is minimal, all things considered, and I expect them to be done by late July. Hopefully.
There’s also the original game that I’m working on, which’ll use an improved version of Saga’s engine. Despite what you may think, I’m not abandoning Saga for this new game! I believe that the two games can be developed together, unless something happens which prevents it.
The new game’s in the beginning stages of development, though, so don’t expect any announcements soon. All I can say is that it won’t be as big and grand as Saga, but it’ll have more depth and story to make up for it.
Anyway, enough explaining as to what I did during the break. All of you want to know if the Saga’s dead, and/or if the expansions will come out. The answer is no and yes, respectively. The YouTube Poop Saga is still being worked on, and the expansions will come out in due time. When exactly, however, is a different story.
I do have written, finished plotlines for The Second One and Vape Nation, and sort-of, kind-of a draft for Mind Warp, but developing and fleshing them out takes a lot of time! In addition, I want to try and cover new ground with these expansions, and use cool VX Ace tricks that I wasn’t able to do in the base version of Saga.
If I had to guess a release date for The Second One’s release, I would say late September at the very earliest. Don’t quote me on this, though.
So, yeah. That’s about it for now.
TL;DR: I’m still working on The Second One and the rest of the expansions, and they’ll come out when they’re ready.
