Small update

Hey, figured I'd make a small post to keep you updated

Progress goes as expected, but quite slow.
I had to change jobs, so can only work on the game few hours a week atm.
Im sorry about slow progress but have to take baby steps now, trying to not burm myself out when im tired :)

Here is a little sketch of a thing im doing, when I don't have enough time to commit to actual tasks
&nb...

Concept art and more

Hey

Finally making decent progress!

Firstly, I made concept for both male and female students.
There is 2 scales, both used for gameplay, with approx height of 270p and 90p. For roaming part of the game I will either make third scale (~140p) or will stick to smaller one.

Happy New Year!

Happy new year!

Can’t wait for all new great games and whatnot in the new year!

I won’t keep you for long, I fixed most of the problems with design, made timeline and stuff.

Now design implies more interactions with and among npc during gameplay, so current versions with placeholder looks too messy esp. for game where main focus is visual progression. (But code base is mostly ready(It was complicated for me :p))
I’m gonna draw few more assets to make it at least bar...

Baby steps

Hey!

I apologize that there wasn’t anything tangible from me lately.

Quick TLDR of rant below: Since this is my dream project, I can’t possibly be satisfied with “good enough” game design, and as this is my first attempt at proper game, I’m struggling a lot :) Progress was made, but I can’t rush it unfortunately.

Last several weeks I was struggling with core gameplay.

This is the game I want to work on for a long t...

End of october progress

Hey!

I was trying to get demo ready by the end of the month, but you know how it goes :)
Just finished some sprite work, should finaly be able to boot engine next week.

It will be very short demo for purpose of gathering feedback, so I can nail core gameplay.

Also did some sketches so I can animate easier, I feel like that what what you supposed to do before animating xd

Progress - making sprites

Hey

I wanted to work on mechanics for P3, but placeholders I found just ain't doing it, and rather then find new placeholders I decided to make few animations to work with.
Few examples:
  

Plan is to put together very barebones core mechanics, and show it to you (and few fellow developers ...
