Flip Dimensions

Another year, another deadline missed. But don't worry, production of Flip Dimensions Chapter 8 is going by pretty smoothly.

I should probably explain why this chapter is taking a while (When not compared to the year I took to create chapter 7). Long story short, I want to make sure the current story is explained and wrapped up appropriately.

Chapter 8 is going to be the largest chapter in terms of both story and content. Covering maybe 30% of the game. In fact, earlier in development, I planned for Chapter 8 to be three chapters. However, I decided not to do that for a few reasons.

-Consistency. Maybe not in length, but a new Chapter always starts after the defeat of the Dark Lord.

-A chunk of the content is technically "optional". The endgame is inspired by Chrono Trigger's, where the player is able to tackle multiple quests in almost any order at the same time the Final Boss becomes accessible, only that the recommended order is defined by the difficulty curve. Still, I didn't want to update only a handful of these "optional" quests at a time. At the same time, the player would be doing 'Chapter 9' content when they could technically be in 'Chapter 10'.

-Personal preference, of course, but considering the Paper Mario inspiration in Chapter structure, I found 8 to be a more satisfying number to fight to Final Boss on compared to 10.

Regardless, I thought it would be best to update the final parts of the game all at once.

Currently, Chapter 8 is roughly 70% done. After I add the finishing touches of the current Dungeon I am working, there are only a few left to finish. And there are a few more key cutscenes I need to work on too, including the game's ending.

For those of you still along on the ride, thank you for your incredible patience.
