Hey all,
Another quick 0.17 status update, as this time I mostly followed the schedule ; meaning that like I planned out, I mostly worked on new content production and artworks.
I did a lot of preprod with animation as a framework in my mind, so I storyboarded a LOT of stuff that ...

Hey all,
Quick progress update for 0.17 ; I know I said last week that I'd be swapping to new content production but I couldn't help but finishing some stuff and have all of the Jade content in the remaster pipeline.
Still not as much as I wanted initially, but I need to be switching to full

Hey all,
Quick update for 0.17, as I'm still working on the artwork remasters.
I mentioned last week that I wanted to evaluate the rate at which this would progress and I have to say that I'm not entirely satisfied thus far ; I've been spending a bit too much time on some illustrations.

So we're back on the production cycle (even though this one is scheduled to be shorter since the update is due to release in may), thus we're back to the weekly status update with progression charts and whatnot.
As a disclaimer, this was supposed to be posted yesterday bu...
2025-04-28 09:10:46 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
I figured I'd fit both the retrospective and some discussion about the next release in this weekly blogspot.
I mentioned in earlier posts that I wanted to come up with a more interactive/interesting format, but it's still one of the many things crammed in the huge projec...
2025-04-20 18:16:02 +0000 UTC View PostHello all,
I really wanted to be able to ship the release today for the weekly update but I'm afraid it will have to wait until tomorrow. Asset conversion and script integration is done so the build is pretty much ready, but I've been pulling my hair at some minor issues that delayed th...

A very short update today as this has been a pretty eventful week.
First off, what matters the most : as I anticipated as likely to happen, the update is gonna be delayed a bit, sorry about that.
However, it's not entirely due to unanticipated workloads ; I had a lo...

Hello all,
This week has been mostly focused on the new content artwork ; as I mentioned a few times earlier, despite the numerous artwork remasters which are the core of this update, I still want to push some new content to get the story flowing, and have something for the returni...
2025-03-16 18:38:58 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks,
On the menu this week, I've spent some times refactoring some of my version control processes (following the issues I faced last week) which led me on some various coding/CI-CD tasks. It never feels good to spend some valuable time on DevOps stuff, but it's necessary to ...

Hey all,
First off for this one a quick status update : I've been dealing with hardware issues this week, that ended up causing me the loss of a few days worth of work. This is always very frustrating but it is an opportunity for me to identify potential breaking points in my pipel...
2025-03-02 18:32:44 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
Another quick update as I'm in the process of wrapping up the main workload of the existing artwork upgrade. This is good news as it means the pace will pick up on the following weeks, with the actual scripting work and new content artwork.
I'd still like to push
Hey all,
Short update today as I don't have much newer things to tease, though rest assured that I've still been busy.
This week as mostly been about wrapping up the storyboarding and progressing the writing, so that I can move on to the thick of it, i.e. the scripting and artwork for...

Hey all,
We're back for another weekly blogspot with some 0.16 development progress indicators.
Just like last week, I'm still going back and forth between writing the new content and progressing the art update, probably shifting the balance in favor of the latter 2025-02-09 18:48:06 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey all,
We're slowly transitioning back to regular development status updates, and thus progress charts are coming back.

Hey all,
For this week's blogspot, no progress charts as I haven't fully established next release's scope.
Release week is always a different activity as I have to monitor everything on the platforms, respond to feedback, etc.
This won't be the th...

It's going to be a quick one today, because I don't have much more to add : I'm now in the release process.
Unsurprisingly, in this busy period with family gatherings and such I haven't been able to progress as much as I would have wanted but the goal deadline remain...

2024-12-08 18:49:24 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
Thank you very much for your patience, as it has been a pretty barren month so far. To be pretty forthright and transparent, this update had me struggle against my first major art block of the project.
To explain in more details my creative process, I usually start the release cycle ...

To follow up on the several polls I announced I'd be doing, I'd like to know a bit more about what you guys actually enjoy in the gameplay experience.
The question is pretty simple : what parts of the gameplay do you enjoy the most / wish to see expanded in future updates ?
