Greetings all the members of the Sad Crab crew! Another 10 days have gone by, meaning it is time for another small report 0.0.4s is finally finished and released. We didn’t make a big deal out of this release, as most of the work done was on bugs and mechanics.
Now we can shift our attention to the spring version. This will be the first public version since our first teaser. We plan to complete the third act, which will also mark the end of the tutorial stage of our game. We will also leave the option to skip the tutorial all together. However, we care to make a guess, that we will get a lot of question about “impossible” quests, as it is impossible to send an unofficial letter, we will see just how many through our discord channel.
One of the major problems for this release was the time consuming process of emotion integration. Though, the overall speed was better than in previous times, what is even better, we plan to implement a few things that will allow us to increase the speed even further, mostly through inclusion of emotions to specific text blocks straight away, rather than half a year later.
Next time we will be back with the monthly report on our progress. At the same time we will more than likely delay the public version until at least the middle of the March, maybe even its end, as there is still a lot of things to do before we are satisfied with the public version.
That will be all for this week, Jealous Rojella is finally coming back to port, and soon it will sail out as a completely new ship.
Poll
Honesty, we kinda missed the moment our game moved from the state “nothing to see here” to “hell if I know how to advance further”. And we did take some steps to resolve that issue, introduction of the journal with your current objectives, creation of internal base of knowledge and mechanics, slow prologue with introduction of all mechanics are all in vain to make our game easier to learn. And so we would like to know how hard was it for you to complete the last version? Did you need any help with the prologue?
