Hi hi! Welcome to the first quarterly recap of 2022! This semester I've been quite busy with development and university, so why not write it instead at the very start of the third quarter? With that said, get ready for this retrospective (?) as it's a reasonably packed one!

Helo helo and welcome again to the reguarly-scheduled quarterly recap of all matters related to pink ferrets! More specifically, welcome to the last recap of 2021.
The final months of the year were filled with exciting updates, so let's get right into them!
As it often is, the most important news is the presence of a new demo of Fech The Ferret. This time around it's a short one: ...

Helo helo, welcome to the third quarterly recap of 2021! I will pretend I'm not 2 month and 30 days late to it and rather get right into the most interesting matters.
With no doubt the highlight of the past month is the SAGE demo. For this special occasion we added the second zone (cava rattina), a...

TL;DR: this month if you are a patron pledging 5$ gets you a comic, 9$ gets you 2 comics. Shipping in January.
Comics! We got them, you want them.
Oookay, that's what my marketing book says I should start with, but here's the thing – a while ago we printed a bunch of mini-comics (a thousand!) planning to hand them out at Milan Games Week, a big gaming convention here in Italy. Folks loved them, but we ended up playing it a bit too safe. So now w...

Though, despite having no access to my pc, development isn't exactly on hold: the creative side of the team keeps working, just at a slower pace than usual.
In brief, I'll be back to work in a week!
(followed by a new build of the game as soon as I feel it's ready)
Hello everyone! As June draws to a close, it's time for another quarterly report!
These last 3 months have been all about expanding the game while refining the first zones of it. Let's dive in!
As usual let's begin with-
The project gained a new 3D artist! They are the one who'll make the props for the game. I would give more info right now, but we prefer waiting a few more days befor...

Helo helo!
I'm back with a new quarterly report! I don't really have much stuff to put in this preamble so let's just-
Gabriel has officially joined the team! Not long after Alex's departure, the project has gained a new level designer. Known better as (Not So)Greedy, you might remember him for bein...

I've said it everywhere at this point, so why not mention it here too?
Linked above there's the youtube premiere for the full album.
And for you two patrons who get notified for these posts..
Well, the album is technically already out on spotify and bandcamp! If you're impatient to play it, check it out here or 2021-01-23 16:03:09 +0000 UTC View Post
Helo helo!
The year is ending and I bet you're all happy because of that! It's of no use to yet again remind you why that's the case, so let's just get to the saucy news and updates about Fech.
Starting with...
Yes! After the SAGE demo it became much clearer what this game is, which meant it was time to welcome new devs to help me shape up Fech The Ferret into the ambitious gam...

A little bit late, but here's the last (extra) thing I wanted to share on these holidays!
You might remember that Fech The Ferret was part of Milan Games Week this year. This edition revolved around video commentaries made by the devs of each entry; in mine I played the most recent demo and talked a lot the development of the game as well as tease little bits about the future of the project.
If you happened to have miss the event, and you also happen to speak Italian, you...

After giving it some thought, the colors of Otis' design didn't seem to capture his nature well. Following his friend's suggestion, he now has a more refined look. Finally you can tell he's part of a sophisticated circle of artists. So here's a new and improved version of your favourite librarian!
Helo helo!
I was a little caught up with work these days, so here's our quarterly report - a week late.

Helo again!
As June is coming to an end, it's time for the second quarterly report! Just like last time (click here if you missed it!) I'm going to summarize what happened during the past 3 months of development.
So, let's start big this time:
Some might have seen this coming: no...

Helo helo!
I noticed that announcements and news regarding the development of Fech The Ferret can become hard to keep track of, so today I want to quickly go over everything noteworthy that's happened during the past 3 months.
Let's start with the most apparent one:
3D art and additional 2D work, Lilly (@SheepShape) is the new artist in charge for dealing
Are you looking for a warm cup of tea and a little chat?
You'll have to go to our charming Otis! He's one of our oldest characters and he would like to think of himself as wise, but that's not necessarily the case... Being a child at heart, he loves novelty and to present himself in different styles (look how colorful his horns can be!). He's the friendliest of his neighbourhood, so you should definitely pay him a visit as soon as you get the chance.
See you in Marmocle!
You've already met Powie,
but it's time to get to know her better. He's an eclectic bird who is way too into deep house and glitter. She has considered Fech and herself best bros since they first met, in fact he's been pulling pranks on our ferret since day one. Chaotic, smart, and full of surprises!
Helo! Welcome to my patreon!
To start off this page, I present to you a new character of Fech The Ferret.
Our beloved Tracy is a chill and curious raccoon who lives in a forest nearby Marmocle (the game's town). You could call her adventurous, if it wasn't for her extreme laziness. She loves pizza more than anything else, rest assured that nothing will ever stop her from achieving the perfect crust. ✨
Just like most of Fech The Ferret art you might have seen so far, this p...
