Progress Update

Hello everyone, still alive. Just inside the cave grinding with the game's development. Was hoping to get something done before March, but I just could not make it in time, sorry. :(

There have been tons of coding and added. It's tough and done and got them working ingame, but not yet as a playable one. As soon as that's ready, it will be in the depository.

That, and my kid has school stuff I had to attend to for a week. (school trips, studies/exams, foundation day etc.) that I just could not miss. 

I hope to show a gameplay video this week for ingame progress. There's a fuckton I'm excited to share. One of which is you can now use the ice spell to freeze water and walk on! Other puzzles and basically lots of stuff to make the stages. You can also destroy grass, brushes and interact switches with your spells. 

I had to do these stage related stuff first as I wait for Chris to finish new sets. I also needed to do these now so future stage designs will be easier to do and not just a walking simulator with enemies. I will make puzzles on these stages to get you worked up!

Freezing up the water:

Switches for bridges and gates:

I have also been busy drafting the new scenes with Chris, here's a sneak peak of the new indulge and how things are done. Also the one in the main post is a recently finished indulge set with Rapevine. I just had the PSD and it will be an extra added on the todo list. I'm gonna render those as flash playable, re adjust the buttons from the previous sketch version etc. etc. I do these all alone, so please understand :(

The new drafts I sent to Chris coming from the main plan phase:
(I believe you can rightclick open image in new tabe these for fullsize)

Narrow down to some more roughs as I explain the flow and the idea to Chris:

And then he cleans it up further for approval:

That's when we get these afterwards:

I'll continue working on these and I think we can skip 1.95 and go straight to 2.0 this month. Every new aspect is done and I just need to have them all shaking hands to be released. The only thing I can't promise is the game overs. I will be the one animating and fixing those, so with everything on my shoulders, I highly doubt I can get it out after I combine all these for the 2.0 demo.

I will also ready these up for the depository SOON, so please help me beta test the external file system I have been mentioning for some time now. These will be ready alongside new PSD's I'll dump in the depository.

Thanks for understanding and thanks for this month's support. I'll take this chance I'm online to answer all messages.
