Chapter 3 Update: Work Continues


Hey all, time for another progress update.

As previously warned, this one's going to be fairly boring. I don't want to spoil any more of the art, and most of what I'll be doing the next few months isn't very visually interesting anyway. Though it took longer than I wanted, art assets are well and truly done now, and I've spent this month finally getting into the GAME part of the game. Everything that isn't a scene pic or an asset: maps, lighting, writing, all the little bits of scripting, fight mechanics and so on.

My plan currently is to have this section finished up in about four months, then move on to the scene pics and writing to finish things off. Currently, I'm nearly finished with the new stuff for Haven (for initial release) which may not sound like much, but there's considerably more going on there in Chapter 3 than there was in GT. I was hoping to have some maps to show off for this update, but most of the work I've been doing so far either hasn't been in mapping, or has been basic connective stuff rather than anything interesting. I should clarify as well: Currently, release HAS slipped from its original date. The goal for now is an end of December release for supporters, and end of January for everyone else.

I do plan to share at least a few of the new maps for the next update. Possibly some more details on the new fight mechanics once I've got those nailed down in their final form and I'm happy with them. I've lost/will lose about a week to extended family as I do every spring, doing some pretty brutal brush clearing, and the parallels aren't lost on me: a long, grinding, often unglamarous process, but every bit you do STAYS done, and eventually you finish, and look out over it all, and nothing beats that feeling. Especially when you get to see others enjoy it as well.

Thank you all for your continued support, feel free to ask if you have questions, and I'll see you in another three months.

Very nice update, looking forward to the next update and for release when it comes out in, a while lol. Will definitely be worth the wait like chapter 2 was though so I'm all for waiting however long it takes, perfection takes time after all.

Oh we're not going for perfection, we'd be here for years! But GOOD takes some time too. Just hopefully not too much.
