Announcement

The Second Demo is Here!

Hi everyone!

The second build is here! The main update is there are two more endings in this demo. Therefore 3 out of 4 planned endings are already done.
Other changes are as follows:
  • Four new equipment for Alicia.
  • Two subquest in the town.
  • More achievements.
  • Change the battle system. (Explained in this blog.)
  • A new fishing minigame, (the old one still exists in the game).

The save file from previous build is not compatible with the new build. I'm afraid that would be also the case when another build is released in the future.

Next on the list is creating the last / true ending of the game. Please tell me if you find any bugs inside the build.
That is all, have a nice day!


Progress Report

Pre-Second Demo Progress Report

Hi everyone!
This is the first time I have done a progress report for this game.

The main story for the second demo is finished! It has three out of four planned endings. Still, the battle is not balanced yet and I want to add a few things before releasing the second demo.

I also changed the battle system into a more conventional one. In the second demo, the player can control every named character in battle in contrast with the first demo where the player can only control the main protagonist. I still think that the idea of only controlling the main protagonist and hiding the HP/MP/TP of other characters in battle was good and unique, but it seems I could never make it work.

I also added another way to fish. In this fishing minigame, the player needs to keep the fishing buoy in the center while dragging the fish to the finish line. This mechanic is stolen inspired by a certain full-loot PvP MMORPG. Well, if you prefer the former fishing minigame, it would still be available in the game.

The next feature on the list for Foreign Mercenary in Port Town is new equipment and subquest. I also need to draw the achievement (“Finding” in the game) icon for acquiring the second and third endings achievement.

That is all the recent progress without going into the boring technical side. I am still unsure about the release date of the second demo since I am developing this game casually.

Have a nice day.
