I'll post a real game update sometime soon.

I'm gonna start posting here when there are game updates; if any of you have an old version of the game just download the newest copy and overwrite your old exe to update.

click here for a list of changes. Take note I finished the mine cart minigame early so that's live as well. It turned out all right; there are a few quirks that take getting used to but if you're lazy and just wanna try the minigame theres a save file right here that ought to work. (I think?)

Thanks for reading.

It's been over something like a half a year since my last blog post and I keep telling myself I'll get to posting a blog but for some reason or another I never get around to it. Well, here it is. Updates!

As some of you know this project is getting a little old. Many of the ideas I had years ago I decided scrap. I've also introduced new elements to the storyline that don't sit as well as I'd like. As a result, the storyline hasn't fully matured.

The good news is I've finally sat down and ironed out all the changes that need to be made to the current game as well as in detail how it will end.

The next few releases will be just that--revisions of older content. For example, early on there is a mine cart minigame. I designed that to be tile-based, back in 2005. Now that it's a new year I'm implementing it using a variant of the engine used for the WOLF platformer minigame, meaning it will instead be pixel-based. In regards to the storyline, I will be removing characters that aren't that important and implementing the backstories of those that are. I will be adding more cohesion and eliminating some of the unnecessary mystery as well.

This means chapter eight isn't coming for a bit. Even though the mapping and puzzles for it are done, I don't see a point in releasing new content when I'm not content with what's already released.

So until then, I've decided this is all going to be one giant beta. This is a work-in-progress that has matured quite a bit in its time (if you've played this back when it was Dragon Heart), but I feel there is still more to go.

What's good though is that I've gotten a lot of great feedback, and I will be regularly releasing updates every few weeks with any fixes, suggestions, or ideas that come my way. If you want to follow the development process, there's always this blog, facebook, twitter, or the website too.

In other news, I've hit over five thousand downloads on SU.com from Dec '08 to now (over a third of which are routed from here) and for that I just want to give a very sincere thank you.

Sorry for the conceited one-liner that I had here before. I was kind of rushed and I didn't know people here were following this. :)

Anyway, after about four to five months of letting school take over, I'm glad to say my undergraduate studies are just about complete and I'm really excited for what's to come in the future of both my personal and professional life. I'll be moved out and starting my new job on the first of next month, where I'll be a QA engineer by day and a game developer by night.

Thanks for following this. Greater things are to come.

I just wanted to show my new production machine in action, though you might have seen this already if you're following SU on twitter. It's the HP Mini and I was finally able to workaround resolution issues so that gives me two to three hours a day I get to spend testing and editing on my way to/from work.

Specifically, I've added footprints and and finishing up another minigame. In addition, 6.06 is more or less done. I'll update it once I nail everything and figure out any other issues. This should hopefully be my last revision before my next major release. That's all and thanks for reading.
