Dev Diary 19! Everything was worked on!

Heya mutants!

You're probably wondering by now what's up in the world of Fallout Yesterday.

A huge week is behind us where I can say work got done on many smaller tasks!

Probably around 30 tasks that needed to be done were cleared, almost all of them technical ones. Some required an hour to finish and others...

Animations-Sanitations! Dev Diary 18!

Heya mutants! 

Just a quick update!

I opened Pandora's box. I spent the entire day creating new animations, testing and fixing animation problems in the old and new files. You wouldn't believe how many animation problems exist in the original games. They haven't even been fixed with the Restoration Project!&n...

Dev Diary 17

Heya mutants! 

Another week is behind us.
And lots of programming and testing is behind us too. 

Looking forward to the upcoming week with even more programming and testing ahead. Things are looking healthy!

Also, we'll gather enough money in June to buy one of the two graphic programs so that's...

YAMP or Yet Another Map Update or Dev Diary 16

Heya mutants!

Aside from a few smaller bugs left to be cleaned up, I'd say we have a functional worldmap ready for the first release! This is a big milestone as there was TONS of work being done to make it work with such a huge change. 

The next post will definitively be the last one regarding the current wor...

Dev Diary 15: Map progress update

Hello mutants!

Just a quick update on the worldmap progress.
I finished setting up the terrain type for each of the individual 4200 squares.

On foot, it will take you about 13 years of in-game time to visit them all!

Next up are the encounters, at least some of the basic ones for start. This is part o...

Dev Diary 14: Map progress update

Heya mutants!

The humongous map file struggled but I managed to squeeze it into the game engine! My graphics card even reset itself once during the process since I was juggling multiple images of over 1 GB in size each.

So to summarize, there's still a LOT of work to be done with the map and it certainly won't be ...

The struggle is real!

Started working on a new world map.

Image file size is 1.24 GB and dimensions are 25740x17280 haha

Dev Diary 13: The Holy 13th update!

Heya mutants!

Another epic week is behind me.

So what happened is that I moved forward on multiple areas:

1. The intro cinematic is being directed as you can see - this is just a tiny tiny teaser scene with the Ink Spots theme song.

2. I finished writing an epic encounter and my fingers still hurt. Eve...

Poll time... Cinematics!

What's up mutants?

We want to know your opinion about those small in-game cinematics. The cool 3D pre-rendered cinematics are definitively in but there's a chance all of those in-game cinematics will be converted to either 3D or be implemented as part of the gameplay. 

Fallout Yesterday will follow in the foo...

Dev Diary 12!

Hello mutants,

I'll just leave these here and go back to work.

See you tomorrow in another update!

Dev Diary 11: Sulik's sister!

Hi mutants! 

Here's a WIP of Sulik's little sister Kurisu who got abducted as a young girl in Fallout 2.

She's not animated and the lights aren't done yet but I wanted to share something new with you as I took a little break from programming and writing.

And yes, before you ask, her teeth are sharpened....

Dev diary 10

Heya mutants!

A quick update to let you know what's going on! In the last couple of days I started writing dialogs and programming code for the first location. It might sound boring but it's a big milestone for me as I'm moving forward to making a first release. With that said, I'm aiming for a late June or late July re...

Favorite type of character to play

Hi mutants!

I'm curious to find out what sort of characters my patrons like to play the most?
Of course, the game will cover all of these gameplay styles but this poll might help me get more content out here that...

Are you thinking what he's thinking?

Just a little WIP of our troublemaking Prisoner ;)

Dev Diary 9!

Salutations my mutant army!

Another epic week is behind me! The initial maps are almost done and will be finished next week. I'm preparing for programming the first version and I finished porting everything from the old Van Buren project into Fallout 2's engine. There's still lots of work to be done on the old files, es...

Dev Diary 8!

Attention mutants! 

I'm back and I have the screenshots! 

As promised yesterday, here are the super mutant and the ghoul.
I'll probably do this for ALL the unique characters too.. because why the hell not?

Thank you and have a nice day!

See you soon

Dev Diary 7: It's been a long time coming

Heya mutants!

Been super busy working on the maps but I'm dropping in to inform you I've finally fixed a minor Fallout nuisance that has been bothering me since 1997.

I always found it lazy how they displayed the same targeting image for all humanoids.
Well, not anymore when I'm around!

Next up are the su...

The Tools

Hi mutants!

Since budgeting of this game is fully transparent, it's time to tackle our first expenses.

We're currently at €40 per months which is great considering there's 11 of you! 

A huge THANK YOU and a virtual brofist/hug to each and every one of you helping make this the best possible Fallout ga...

Dev Diary 6!

TLDR: New screenshots! :D

 Gather around mutants! 

I know what you've been waiting for, so I'm bringing not one but three of them! 

Another busy weekend is behind me. I added new music to the game and created two new medium maps. Still have two huge maps to finish before I start with the progr...

The Color of Caves

Hello mutants! 

Help me make a decision. 

I'm split between Fallout 1's blue caves and Fallout 2's brown caves.

Which one do you think Fallout Yesterday should go for?

A small reminder

Hello once again mutants!

Just a small reminder to anyone who didn't vote yet, we're still running the poll about the Prisoner's next adventure!

Dev Diary 5!

Hello muties!

As promised, I owe you biographies and stats for the pregenerated characters.
Here they are! So, do you feel you have more or less questions about them now? :)

Going back to the lab now! See you soon!

Dev Diary 4!

Hello mutants!

Here is the Trio of Prisoners for the pregenerated characters. Enjoy!

And I know I also promised to include their biographies but I still want to work on them some more. Next time for certain!

P.S. Can you guess which one is specialized in Combat, Stealth or Diplomacy? :-)

 Take car...

Dev Diary 3!

A quick update today dear mutants!
Worked on renders for 3 pregenerated characters. Haven't yet finished them but should be there tomorrow! I'll share their portraits and bios this week!

Dev Diary 2!

Hi there mutants,

long time no see!

I finished the Main Menu artwork and as promised the last time, made a video so you can immerse your senses in the post nuclear world of Fallout Yesterday!

Enjoy it and see you soon! 

Dev Diary! Number 1!

Hello mutants! 

Hope you're doing great and had a well-earned rest this weekend. Time for a BIG update!

A lot has happened since my last post... while one thing didn't happen - I just slept for 4 hours in the last 48 hours and am about to crash after finishing this update! You're probably think that I should ...

Our bottlecaps!

Hi mutants!

First of all, thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul for every cent sent my way to make this game part of our reality! The Master would be proud of you!

I was recently attacked from some bad people on NMA and our Discord for the fact I opened a Patreon for Fallout Yesterday.

Let me say th...

The Captain's Log

Hi mutants! 

Would you be interested in reading a dev diary? 

It would consist of short, spoiler-free (more or less) things I'm working on at the moment and maybe an odd comment here and there.

Let me know in the poll!

Sonic blast from the past!

Hi mutants! Time for some sweet music and a history lesson!

Here's something I found today, a Soundcloud link buried deep in my documentation.
When looking for someone who could deliver quality and exclusive music for the game, in 2014. I contacted 2020-04-16 18:53:36 +0000 UTC View Post

The Prisoner escapes Tibbets, where shall his adventures take him next?

Hello mutants, 

time for the first of many polls accessible only to you! Your votes get to decide which area I will work on next! I'll try to avoid heavy spoilers! 

I'll discuss it in detail in a separate post about game's roadmap but the idea is that with each finished area, I'll release an Early Access...
