Status Update and moving forward


Hi!
So, it´s been a while, huh?

--My current Problem---
I´m writing this Article to let you know that I have contracted a severe case of burnout...
"But you didn´t even show us a screenshot of the game! How can we know that you have done ANYTHING?!?!?!"
- You probably

Well, first of all, i have a Youtube Page under the same name as on here, second, You don´t need to because I'll explain right now

So, I have made a whole Room system, I have Doors that can teleport you into another Room, Walls and Npc´s.
I also have a rudimentary Battle System and have made Plans for most of the first Area of the Game.

But, because one of my Teachers gave me the chance to show the game of at our summer festival I worked HARD,
so hard, that now I´m burnt out.
If i try to sit down and program it just doesn't go anywhere and I end up writing barley working, garbage code.

--My Plans for Moving forward--
So i have a Plan to make 2 Demo´s for the Game, one that only a few People will be able to have by joining The discord Server that I will make eventually and one that will be accessible to everyone and that´ll be much bigger.

--Closing Thoughts--
I´ll step away from programming on the game for a little while but I´ll get back to it once my burnout is lifted, though I will try to make other things like plan dialogue, make sprites and Music.

--Goodies--
Below are a few Goodies for all of you patient People
Those being:
A GIF that symbolizes my Burnout, The Game´s Title Screen (may change), Pride Month Art of The main character: YOU, Background for the first Room in the game and a Sprite of YOU
-in that order

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

Hi everyone! I started to create some environment props for my new video game, here is a cozy house in the forest. I'm planning to switch from Unity to Unreal... Let's see what new challenges I have to face. Made in Blender and Substance Painter.

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