Thanks, I'll be careful. Though this is kind of my attempt to prevent burnoutπ Do something out of the ordinary to prevent repetition and keep the work interesting.

2026-02-04 00:32:19 +0000 UTCWow, shadowdropping a demo for a whole new mechanic, someone is definitely spoiling us. I'm happy to hear that you had fun with it and it helped keep you motivated, but as Shadow said please take care of yourself and try to keep a healthy balance between work, the Gina's Gym and your own private life. I wish that all the team can keep having as much fun creating the game we are having playing it and burnout doesn't sound like much fun.

2026-02-02 17:04:02 +0000 UTCGlad to have been of help! I look forward to the vote and the responses & impressions from the demo - while I probably clocked 10% or less than time than Don on the point and click things, it was still probably in the realm of 2 dozen hours on my part - which goes to say how MUCH effort Don put into this. It's REALLY cool and REALLY impressive - I'm a huge fan of how it turned out. And I still think that the point and clock engine is probably 90-95% done; hopefully the hardest parts for it are done with.

2026-02-02 17:01:19 +0000 UTCMore a demo than a proper release π And yes, while the timing for the villain arc has not been highly relevant before, this one has to be completed before the College Arc, since more and more events begin to overlap. Team Spartan was one thing, but the main story of the next recruitment arc is linked to what's gonna happen in the Geier Gauntlet.

2026-02-02 09:39:29 +0000 UTCThanks, will do. Currently it's a lot shorter. It's more of a tech-demo and Tutorial Level at this point.

2026-02-02 09:29:09 +0000 UTCI don't really have much to say other than, take care of yourself, take your time developing, don't get burnout and as always thanks for keeping us all informed of your doings. So have a good week and see you later. A parting question. The point and click adventure mini game sounds interesting, is it one time only and is it as long as the trial or shorter?

2026-02-02 08:41:23 +0000 UTCYou are the best! Can't wait to download the new release and play! Let me do it after work. It's okay if the side story is released a bit later. Since it hardly overlaps with the main plot, there's no rush.
