Update Beta 2 Release

So rather than giving you a "How June Went" post, I thought I would give you a new version of the game. You like those, right? Right.

The change log for this update can be found here.

As was voted on FOREVER ago, ...

How May went

Hello, it's been a month and you may have noticed that I still have billing paused (actually it might have been on for the 31st and I'm not sure if that means it billed people for exactly one day or not?). I should probably give an update on how things are and how they went for May

So the way I describe it is that I am,...

Pausing billing for May

Hey. It's been a bit. I've posted various status updates in various places but I really do owe people something more comprehensive, so I'll do that here now.

Truthfully, I probably should have done this much earlier, but I've been in a cycle of "this next thing will probably reveal what is wrong with me/how to fix it, s...

Update Beta 1.5 Release

The change log for this update can be found here.

I've been dealing with some health issues that have been making it  rather difficult to get writing (or other work as well) done. It's  gotten a bit better th...

Weekly Update/Preview Nov 27-Dec 4

Alrighty, let's get right into it. It does feel like I have a good amount of stuff to talk about, although I'm starting actually writing this out a little later than I probably should have. 

So first off, I do want to get an update out this week. There are some question marks around that, but it is the current obje...

Weekly Update/Preview Nov 20-27

Another week? Felt pretty quick to me, although I imagine a lot of people had that experience due to the whole holiday thing. Assuming you are in a place where a holiday occurred of course.

So coming to the end of November here and I can pretty safely say that the next update is not going to land on the 1st of December....

Weekly Update/Preview Nov 13-20

For me, it's been a witchy week. That's only slightly out of season! Feels like a lot has happened but looking over the actual tweets I've put up I don't feel like there's a huge amount of insight to actually give about them. Still, here we are. Talkin' 'bout the stuff that has happened.

Beta 1 and 1.1 Relea...

Update Beta 1 Release

The change log for this update can be found here.

So this was a bit delayed. Certainly more than I wanted, although the  ideal amount of delay is zero so that isn't saying all that much. By  way of explanation...

Weekly Update/Preview Oct 30-Nov 6

Honestly last week I didn't think I'd be writing one of these for this week, but here we are anyway. Hopefully everyone enjoys these enough to be happy about that, although it's probably offset by the reason I thought I would end up skipping it being wrong. I had expected the Beta 1 update to come out, which obviously hasn't ...

Content Direction Poll - By Character

Hi there!

So I've been talking about this for probably longer than I should have been (without actually doing it, that is), but I think I've decided on how I want to go about it for this time around. While the previous content direction poll was done by threat group, this time I would like to pick a specific character t...

Weekly Update/Preview Oct 23-30

Another weekly update thingy coming at you. There were just a couple of tweets again, but that should probably be fine? If nothing else, you can hopefully look forward to the stuff that's coming up soon.

For the most obvious thing, I do want to have the update come out some time this week. Exactly on November 1st...? Pr...

Weekly Update/Preview Oct 15-23

Hey there. Feels like it's been a bit since I sat down to write one of these out one of these. The weird release delay on 16 leading into another weird release timing for the bugfix version is the cause of that. This whole month has just been unusual as far as scheduling things. Although that might sound negative I don't real...

Update Alpha 16.1 Bugfix Release

Devlog/Update/Whatever

Thought I would take some time to go over the current state of things after the release of 16, as we're now in a bit of a transition state. I've decided to make this one publicly available. Obviously things here are a little bit different than the usual, but if you enjoy this kind of miscellaneous gamedev rambling stuff, I do...

This update expands on the Coraline tasks system from the p...

Weekly Update/Preview Sept 18-25

Hello. Just the couple of things to talk about this week, though that isn't actually a bad thing. At least, I don't think it is, so that's probably a good sign. I talked about wanting to hunker down a bit over the last week and get things worked on, and I have been doing that. I've got a lot of things in flight still, just no...

Weekly Update/Preview Sept 11-18

How to summarize this week? Fairly busy, both in the sense of the game and not. More external obligations, though those should have calmed down again comparatively. I'd like to hunker down and get some good work done now, and I should have the schedule to do so now. I'll keep it there rather than complaining about the specifi...

Weekly Update/Preview Sept 4-11

Another week of work. This one also included a new version release, so I can talk a bit about that and how it went and whatnot first, then we can get on with the tweets and talking about those.

Alpha 15 Release

I'm reasonably happy with it. To be completely honest I wanted to have a couple more camp scenes slipp...

Update Alpha 15: Tasks Update

The changelog for this update can be found here.

This month we have the introduction of another new gameplay s...

Weekly Update/Preview Aug 21-28

Just two tweets this time, it looks like. Getting closer to the actual update itself, there are fewer things that feel novel enough to put up, since more of my time goes to just having to write. I suppose I could just throw up more previews of skills/curses/whatever being added, but a lot of the time it doesn't feel like thos...

Weekly Update/Preview Aug 14-21

Hi there. I seem to be settling into three tweets per week, which may or may not be a good amount. I dunno. Generally I'm trying not to put too much pressure on myself with it, as not everything I do has a lot to show off or talk about. Hopefully having these bits of more insight (or at least more text) helps make them feel a...

Weekly Update/Preview Aug 7-14

And we're back. Y'know thinking about it, it's pretty convenient that I just so happened to skip the week that would have made the title formatting uglier due to splitting between two months. I guess saying July 31 - Aug 7 isn't so bad but whatever.

As for this week, I've been busy but not as much on the game as would b...

Scoping Out Scoping

You may or may not have noticed, but I don't really have any tweets to use for structuring my weekly update/preview thingy. While I suppose that TECHNICALLY means that I could just not do one, it wouldn't really be weekly then, would it? I mean I guess since I named this one differently it isn't the same thing exactly and you...

Weekly Update/Preview July 24-31

Hello again. Update soonish, but I'm still making another one of these things. So last week I mentioned feeling slow on content production and seeing how I feel next week. Now we are here in next week and I feel... Not great.

Update will be this week still. Almost certainly not tomorrow, and maybe not even the day after...

Weekly Update/Preview July 17-24

The tweets this week were kind of backloaded. Several days of nothing followed by several days of something. I don't really plan these things anymore. Earlier on I was being a lot tougher on myself making sure it was one tweet per day, but now it's mostly just kind of whatever. I haven't seen anything suggesting the tweets ma...

Weekly Update/Preview July 10-17

This week has felt somewhat unusual. Nonstandard in the amount of bugs, troubleshooting, and bugfixing that has been going on behind the scenes. As a result, it feels like I'm not getting done as much as I would like. If I avoid panicking about that and purposely inject logic instead though, I guess that's always going to be ...
