I've noticed the older test builds are still being downloaded, so I thought we would mention once more that those builds are incredibly basic and made to gather feedback on new features. Things included are almost guaranteed to change with each new build. The current build uploaded in fact lacks about three months of work. We will be putting out details for the next test build and where this is all going later today.
Next up
Light menu is still undergoing it's refit, some behind the scenes code changes making it easier to edit multiple lights. A light will also toggle on/off depending on its intensity. So custom events don't need to be loaded with two different commands.
Opinions on a new graphics style?
Quick update on the project, Dialogue system has been rewritten from the old version of the game, functionally the same but a lot easier to use. The camera has been worked on and the inventory is being expanded with things like drag and drop.
Finally, I've had some time to do some more work on the recode. There is hardly anything to see except for this utilitarian clock which can be swapped to 12 and 24 hours in settings. The lighting again changes through the day too.
Finally, you can sell the fruits/veg of your labour. :)
I'm currently working on a new game with a team of people. Here's a mannequin being assaulted for test purposes. Gotta do what you gotta do for your damage systems.
I know updates have been slow but there really isn't much to talk about when you're just tidying up existing code. We're looking at updating the art style to be just that bit nicer. The crop system working with an overhaul to interactions with tools.
(Mines and menus preview build)
Available for testing now
Character customization: How and why bother? (expand)
Asking the big questions today. We won't support changing your characters outfit or gender but you can give our beloved testguy a name. Character customization will come later, as it will take planning to get it as versatile as we want at the moment.
