EARLY ACCESS Announcement | April 2024
Hey there! Long time, no see, right?
Just wanted to drop in and let you know that we're wrapping up
the Closed Beta phase, and I'm pumped to say that the Early Access
version is on its way.
Coming at you in just a few weeks, this version will pack in
the first 5 chapters, promising a solid 15-20 hours of gameplay.
You'll have access to half of the side missions to keep things
interesting.
And to sweeten the deal, here are some fresh screenshots straight
from the ongoing development:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
For the writing/dialogue, I've made a ton of changes and grammar checks
to ensure the game dialogue flows better. I trimmed down unnecessary and
convoluted conversations and aimed for consistency in how characters talk
and react based on their personalities.
It's not perfect yet, but I gave it my all and got a lot of help
from friends.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
For battles, I've brought back and redesigned the TURN ORDER bar.
Plus, I've added some icons to make certain descriptions stand out.
Oh, and I've doubled the speed of the ATB bar!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
For maps, I've beefed up the interactable objects, added more variety.
Now, NPCs will give different responses based on your character's Social stats.
Also, I've made lootable items like flowers, stones, and ores auto-regenerate,
so you can keep finding them after a few days.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
There's more! I'm knee-deep in development on Chapters 6-10. Three new
playable characters are joining the crew: Velia, Zero, and Claus. That's right,
we'll have the full lineup for both the Red Team and the Blue Team.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Happy game making. Stay tuned for more updates,
and of course, happy new year~
