Better than Nothing!

Hey, just wanted to apologize for the serious lack of updates on the game. The way my mind works is like "if I have time to make a post about the game...I may as well just use that time to work on the game". But seriously it's been over a month and I left it on a pretty low note. I think part of the reason is that I was still adjusting to the community and how things go here. I'll be honest, I'm really starting to dig it here.

Just to let you know I'm working on the game like crazy, and the play time for better or worse is a LOT longer than I anticipated it would be (which I'm seriously glad about seeing as I'm trying to keep out as much mandatory filler I as can, and still have stuff for the player to always do).

Since my last update I finished about three full sections of game(save a few events). Heavily reworked the battle system because I was trying to work with low numbers but it's pretty hard with the default measure system. The game has loads and loads of dialogue trees and alternative event too, which I find very fun to do and I love writing character dialogue but it's very time consuming, but I'm sure you guys all know about that already.

I also went in as people suggested and edit the lighting on the trees to make them blend a tad bit better with the smaller trees, added some lighting, and completely finished the intro. I don't want to release a demo until I reach another pivotal point in the plot and I'm closing in on it very fast. I still have loads more eventing to do for earlier parts in the game, but it's still going quite smoothly If I do say so myself.

I wish there was more to show right now other than a bunch of screenshots, but I don't want to rush a demo or game videos out there either until I worked out most of the kinks (first impressions ya know).
I'll try to update a little more often...at least more than once a month (I say that a lot and never come through, I'll try to make good on it this time >.<).

awesome. VX games usually turn me off, but your game is genuinely interesting to me. Keep it up!
Thanks for showing an interest YDS!

I'm am pretty surprised that anyone is interested in something that I'm doing, I just hope I don't disappoint when the time comes to show a demo and videos... But seeing as this is more of a developer community than most sites I visit, if I make a major mistake I can count on you guys to point me in the right direction.
It's good that you're taking your time and not rushing to complete the demo. Still, I'm eagerly looking forward to it.
