Hello friends! This is a small post-revelation that is important to me right now. 4.5 years have passed since the beginning of the development of "Bright Past"! It's hard for me to believe this, but it's true. I never thought that I could work on one project for so long. A lot has happened in my life over the years. Change has not always been for the better, but today is not about that.
The development of this game has always fascinated me. But while working on the latest version, I felt like the strength began to leave me. I think this is the first time I've encountered this very thing called "burnout". I think many factors influenced this, but I will not delve into them now either. It got to the point where, for the first time in 4.5 years, I had the idea that I wanted to quit the game without finishing it. Moreover, I have been brewing the concept of a new game for a long time, which inspires me a lot.
I realized that I urgently needed a rest. I completely abstracted from work 2 weeks and left for another city. Today I came back, hugged my cats, and realized that the decision was the right one. I realized that I missed Alex and all the dirty perverts that surround her. I want to return to Jade City with renewed vigor and continue to fill it with events. I am once again full of inspiration and strength to continue this story.
The only thing is that in order to structure the material that has been accumulated over the years, I will again need your help.
I will need your feedback. No, I'm not asking for compliments, I want to hear your real opinion about the game at the moment. This is what I really miss. Write about what attracts you to my game and what infuriates you the most.
There are fewer of you lately. I know that this is partly due to world events, but maybe I also turned the wrong way during the development process. If you think so, be sure to write about it. All is not lost yet :)
I don't like to overuse promotional posts, and I try to do no more than one a month. If in the near future there will be a little more of them, do not be offended, okay? :)
And for the most persistent and hardy... For those who have read up to this point... My game is now in dire need of testers. More precisely, the game has only one tester, and that's me. I want to put together a small team of cool guys who will help me test the game, get it before anyone else. If you want to help, go through the game from start to finish, writing out the found bugs, inconsistencies, annoying moments and your thoughts on this or that matter. From the most active we will assemble a small club of testers. Even if there are 3-4 of us, we can make this game better. Testers will have a special section in the discord and a separate role. For this, write to me immediately there.
In the next couple of days, I plan to post a series of polls here about the game to understand your preferences at the moment.
I continue to work, and thanks to everyone who stays with me.
