[v0.19]Yay! v0.18 got out~ I'm hoping v0.19 is a smaller quicker update (but covers a very important part of the game). So crossing my fingers that goes quick,
[v0.15]Out on Icarue's patreon! Public is right around the corner.
[v0.4]Especially neglected child this month. But for... good... reasons...? I think.
[Chapter 02]I'm at a pace of releasing a thing every 5 weeks (chapter 1, 1.5, 2, etc) on patreon. That'll keep up for a bit, but production timing means it'll probably take a little longer at a point. But we'll see how long we can do that.
[Chapter 02]Same as last month, basically. I'm still chipping away at developing chapters, but some key stuff will probably be on hold until Mass can find himself in a better place.
[Chapter 03]It's out! (again again). It had its public release this last month, and chapter 3 has started its development. So, that'll hopefully be not too slow to release, but its moving.
[Oathbreaker Endcard & Full Body Art]What to preview today? Hmm... Well, how about something slow and steady that I'm adding to a little bit here and there as time goes on? One neat thing we've been developing is art for an "endcard" in Oathbreaker.
Imagine this... You end this Fire Emblem inspired game, and to finish it off, you have a big "The End" screen before you. The many characters from across the game show up, depending on if they survived to the end or not.
It becomes a reflection of your journey, and a mini-celebration of coming to journey's end. I really love those endings that have something that feels like it sees you out with personality. It's a wonderful capper to it, and I especially like the idea of it when you've the opportunity to customize it to the journey.
Doing this achieves a second thing we want out of it... Full character design art for all the characters. Well, the major characters. Each party member will get updated to show off designs we had developed before or flesh out for the sake of this project. We can, of course, show this in places beyond just the End Card concept.
It'll be a small moment, but its also a lot of work for that maybe minute of interaction with each player. But, despite that, I think those sorts of things are often worth it. It was a "wouldn't this be cool" idea that developed into something I add to every once in a while and will be ready before the end of the game's development.
So, for now, I hope this seems a bit cool to you all too. Weird mini preview as it is, neat stuff like this is some of what I work on when I'm not actively writing or other stuff like that. Either way, hope you enjoyed this! Til next time.
