(01/22/2021) SQ2:RE Version 0.123

(The following is copied from the patron-exclusive post made 2 days ago, save for the final paragraph.)

Let me first express my gratitude to everyone who's stuck around for this long supporting me from the sidelines. If I didn't know I had so many people expecting what I produce I probably would have given up on this project a while ago.

Finally presenting the long awaited next installment in Spanquest 2: RE. The version 0.123 again is a rough judgement of the percentage of the game I've completed compared to what I imagine the final version will be. Therefore, this number accurately represents that this current version features approximately 1/8th of the game, specifically the first town in its (near) entirety.

The time between the last two updates hasn't been ideal, and for me has been unacceptable. Because at the rate I have been going I would finish this project in 3-4 years which is definitely not how I want things to continue. Thankfully I believe that at this point the game is now at a solid state that won't have grand changes to its mechanics and the more complicated systems have already been developed. The last few weeks of work for the game have all been dialogue and scripting of events, with no more gameplay elements requiring my attention. This hopefully means that development will be faster in the future, as I'll only need to devote my time to more creative aspects of the game like art and writing.

Now that that's all out of the way, I hope you enjoy the public release of version 0.123. I'm interested in hearing any thoughts on the presentation and content of the latest additions, especially because seeing things from a creator's perspective can make it hard to see the forest through the trees, for lack of better words. Naturally please inform me either in the comments or through a private message of any bugs you've encountered, though thanks to the watchful eye of my patrons who got early access on Wednesday this version should be (fairly) bug free.
