Hi everyone!
I know all of you have been asking for updates, and trust me when I say that I do wish that I could give you all an update post that has a substantial amount of content in it. But sometimes progress is not so easily quantifiable or explained with words, and rather than spending what limited free time I can afford to think about what to type in an update post, I would rather spend that time working and completing what I can on the game.
I have said before in a previous post that I will not abandon the game without informing you guys first, so you all don't have to worry about me disappearing or giving up on the game silently. Also, there is no point in sending strings of expletives or death threats to my inbox since that will only earn you a ban from my account and would even discourage me from working on the game at times since it sours the mood.
But anyways, on a happier note, I want to thank those of you who have been patiently waiting for the update especially those who have been sending me encouraging messages and urging me to carry on. Even though I might not have the time to reply all of them, trust me when I say I do read them all and I truly appreciate each and every one of them! It's these messages that push me to continue developing the game even though I am truly finding it hard to find time to work on it these days.
So, about the update, previously I mentioned a bug that I found, that was mainly a result of having too many branches that resulted in a huge mess with regards to linking the correct flags and displaying the correct branch. It was also a result of insufficient planning since there are many flags that I did not create in earlier version that I needed in this update. So after trying to work around the problem, I decided to scrape some parts, re-render certain scenes and rewrite others. That, and a sudden workload boom at my job in August, was the reason for the longer-than-expected fix.
But now, I am happy to say that the wait is over! New renders, writing, coding and testing have been completed for v0.13, and I am currently building the files as I am writing this update. After that, I will upload the new versions and then release the beta for you all, so I hope you all are ready for it!
Lastly, the above pic is one of the images that did not make the cut for this update. Just for whetting your appetites!
Look forward the the update post next!
Cheers,
DW
