Its been an increadibly busy few weeks and up until yesterday it had been quite a while since I had last touched development, but by god I had a free day and I wanted to make the most of it and I think I did.



First of all a large take away I got from watching peoples Lets Plays of Shooty and the Catfish Episode 1 (though not in reviews stramgely) was that I needed more specific visuals for the different door types. Now we have Elevator doors, Small Key doors, Key Item doors and Boss Key doors, hopefully this makes progression options more clear for players. I will probably go back to Episode 1 and release a new patch where these changes are implemented as well.



In terms of dungeon design progress, well the first half of the first floor (this dungeon has 3 floors total with one of them also having an outdoor component) of Episode 2s single dungeon is now completed. I had hoped to get the full first floor done yesterday but with the much bigger emphasis on character dialogue within this dungeon it just wasnt possible. Yes, thats right, while Episode 1s dungeon had a bunch of random monsters, every encounter in Episode 2 is a character with a small story (or gag) to tell. There will be significantly less encounters than Episode 1 (and I have no plans to treat the dungeons in Episodes 3 - 5 this way) but I am hoping this will make each encounter more meaningful, time will tell if I am successfull in that respect or not.



And thats unfortunately it for this update. I am pretty flooded with freelance work at the moment so updates will probably be quite inconsistent for the next couple of months atleast, still, every updates another step forward!



Until next time, keep on developing!
