Hey, it's Azzie.

Another month another update on development on Reindeer Story.



I've gotten the 1st chapter done! My current set of milestones involves creating all the key scenes, maps, special mechanics and boss battle(s). It's kind of like building the skeleton of the game and story!



No Bones about it! When the skeleton's in place I'll start fleshing it out, adding extra scenes, secret areas, adding optional NPCs, replacing placeholder graphics, polishing wonky parts, etc.

So when I do place down treasure, enemies, and write the generic NPC dialogue the structure will be there. So I'll know the best way to distribute treasure, decide what sort of things the NPCs should tell you, at certain points of the game, what items should be what price,etc, etc.


2021 - Development

Complete
Prologue(Tinsel Town, Mount Fairsteppe) - Complete
Chapter 1(Snowzone) - Complete


To Do:
Chapter 2(Autumn Forest, Knight Games)- target 1st July
Chapter 3(Toy Town) - target 1st August
Chapter 4(Pleasure Palace)- target 1st September
Chapter 5(Magical Mists) - target 1st October
Chapter 6(Final) - target 1st November

Next on my list is Autumn Forest! I already got a start on the maps. It's not all just snow and snowmen! The story will take Lux and friends to variety of locations!



I think the orange/red colour of chapter 2 makes a good contrast to the blues and whites of the prologue and chapter 1.

The story will be quite different once the party gets to the Knight Games Tournament(though I haven't designed those maps yet so yeah...can't show that off yet).

Thanks for suffering through my skeleton metaphor!
