Jel's Cafe is being soft cancelled.

I think the overall pressure and workload for this game project is starting to overwhelm me a bit too much. Perhaps biting off more than I could chew I'm afraid.

I think I'm going to unfortunately declare this project a failure (FOR NOW).

I still really like the idea of this game, but I don't think it works too well in Rpgmaker, theres just far too many restrictions and tediousness when it comes to making simple changes like adding or replacing new items.

I would like to s...

Dev Blog 32 | Jel's Cafe | Plans for a new minigame

Hello all. I'm sorry for the lack of blog posts for the past few weeks. I've still been working on the game since 0.2a, however most of the work I've been doing isn't all that interesting.

This week I can explain everything that I have done and my plans to include a new minigame!

Hey all, it's Friday so its time for my sometimes weekley developer blog post! I'm getting closer and closer to finally having the next playtest/in development build ready, Version 0.2a.

I would personally like to playtest the game myself one more time just to make sure theres no more game breaking issues, and then after that the build will officially be ready for you all to try out! It's been quite a while since the last build with a ton of changes, so I'm hoping you all will.

Hey everyone, it's Friday so its time for another progress report. Yesterday my drawing tablet officially kicked the bucket after showing signs of starting to not wanting to cooprotate for the past few months it. I've ordered a new one, it has cost me an arm and a leg and basically left me with nothing left. As soon as the new tablet arrives development for this game will be put on pause to open for emergency commissions to get enough to pay off the tablet but then also bills for July too. Th...

Dev Blog 26 | Jel's Cafe | UI improvements

Hello all, its time for another blog post. I missed out on doing them for the past 2 weeks as I was busy with other things, the biggest distraction being too many video games I was personally interested in all releasing back to back. Now that that period has ended and I'm back in the flow of things, I can finally share what I have been working on over the past 3 weeks.

I'm also doing something new with these blog posts going forward, anytime I want to share any images I'll add a number ...

Dev Blog 23 | Jel's Cafe | Logbook improvements

Hey everyone, heres this weeks blog post! It's been a full week since the release of Version 0.1a. If you've yet to check it out you can find a download link for it in my previous pateron post.

Since most work that is ahead is now artwork related there likely won't be many more playtests unless a huge bulk of work is completed or any new features are improved or added.

Dev Blog 20 | Jel's Cafe | Burnout recovery

Hi all, I've recovered from my small burnout and have been back to work on the game. A lot of stuff has still been behind the scenes work - for example writing the scripts for the characters and their lore bibles, but I also did make a start on some additional content for the game too. Once I'm done with commissions I'll be back to fully working on this project again.

Hey all, this blog post is a little different from the last ones. I promised I would make updates weekley and I will still keep that up even if I don't really have anything to share.

This week I have been busy with commissions, experiencing some burnout and also doing some writing work behind the scenes for the game.

The writing work consists of a lore document towards each and every character, I currently have 3 characters left to write about, and should hopefully get that sorted...
