POPGOES 2: The Dead Forest (REVIVAL) Tech Demo
2 months ago

Update & Explanation


Hey everyone, I'm Foxxy, and I'm the game's Programmer, 3D Artist, Graphic Designer, and lots of other small roles I don't care to list. Safe to say, I do a lot for this project, and there's a lot that relies on me.

So its kind of a shame that I haven't been able to contribute to this project much at all the past year.

There's been a multitude of reasons for this, some of which some of you may know if you know me. I'm someone who works on several projects, and who's been contributing to several in the community, including Final Nights 2 Reburnt, Spike's Ahoy, Welcome to Bon's Burgers, Jolly: Anniversary Edition, and several others. That takes up a lot of time. Add on top of the fact that I'm having to do some paid work (which usually is top priority) takes up even more time. Then throw in college, which is a really big time sink, and then on top of all of this add in a bunch of health issues and you have a big bowl of time not being spent on Popgoes 2.

On top of all this, add the fact that in the past year I've had my laptop die twice, some family situations, mental health, and also some game production issues, and well... you can probably see why Popgoes 2 hasn't gotten much time in the spotlight as of late.

There has also been some issues which I take blame for, such as issues with the source code and motivation issues, that's on me. I also feel a bit responsible for making production so reliant on me, but oh well. Nothin that can be changed now. All we can really do is try and get the tech demo finished.

The Tech Demo will be going back into development relatively soon. It shouldn't take too long hopefully, pretty much all of the assets are done, there's just going to need to be some work done that I'm gonna have to do, which might take a bit of time since I'm gonna be balancing it across other projects.

Consider this post to be both my explanation, and my apology. I feel really bad for keeping you guys all out of the loop, but hopefully you'll get to see more from us in the near future when we're ready.

Thanks for listening, we'll see you soon. -Foxxy.

A little different from what I normally post, since this isn't a project I'm involved with myself, but I just wanted to shout out @ThatBritishGuy & @THK_205 's Mac Tonight: Blood Moon! It looks rlly great so far and I felt I should have a little spotlight!
