Title: I've been away for a while...
Post by: Alecain on December 07, 2014, 03:45:37 PM
I haven't been here in SO LONG due to my life becoming extremely busy all of a sudden. I took a new a job, my dream job in fact, working at a radio control hobby store. RC is my favorite past time, and now it's my job. YAY!  :D

Ahem, anyway... there is my excuse for disappearing. Now I want to tell you what's been going on in my game...

I've been making a lot of changes to the story and flow of the game, also going back and detailing a lot of the earlier maps. I've been taking advantage of the message codes, adding expression, stuttering, and pausing to the characters' dialogue. I have added 'hidden' paths were the passable tiles are simply covered by top-layer tiles, or in most cases, plain difficult to see and navigate. These hidden paths lead to treasure boxes containing valuable items, hidden caves, etc. And in some maps, discovering the hidden path is necessary to progress, adding a puzzle element to the game. Needless to say, I've been doing more back-tracking than I have been going forward. No big deal.

There have been more cut scenes being made than game play as of late. I feel this is best so I can go ahead and get them over with and stitch them into the game when they are needed. And as always, lots of debugging (if you can call it that).

On a side note, I've been drawing the characters in my game. Doesn't develop the game, I know... but drawing is another one of my hobbies and a lot of people like to see a detailed version of Kanori for some reason...  ::)

Anyhow, here are a few screenshots of the detail I've been putting into the maps. Cheers!

Nice work, some of the maps looks a little bit cluttered with all the plants though.

I agree that on the bottom map it looks like you might have gone for style over having a map you can actually traverse easily, but perhaps that looks better when you're actually playing.

Welcome back!

Hey, Alec! Been a while! Good to see you're still working on these. They look rather lovely!  Did you ever get the sex mini game all worked out?
