Two Years!?

Wow! This Saturday, it will have been two whole years since I started this project! How time flies!

I wish I had been spending 100% of the time available during these two years developing the game, but the truth of the matter is, I spent about half a year on unrelated side projects (>.>;;;) and another half a year was pretty slow because of job loss and getting used to another job.

But still! Things are progressing pretty smoothly now, and I've gotten my productivity back to about where it was before. So let's check up on the game's progress so far! Progress-o-meter, I choose you!



Some things to notice: First, I've added two levels: One, "Another Street," which links the area behind the clinic to the Neighborhood level more smoothly, and an upcoming Sewer Level to link the area around the Middle School to Downtown a little better (also, a small bit of the story has been moved there for pacing).

Also, if you look at how the meter has filled up, it looks like I'm about half done with the game, right? However, I don't think that's entirely accurate, as Chapter 4 and especially Chapter 5 will be a bit longer than the previous chapters, despite the fewer locations listed (and they're listed pretty vaguely to keep things mysterious) so I'd say I'm closer to maybe 40% done with the project.

After I complete Chapter 3, I intend to release a final demo of the game. This will contain a good 50-60% of the game, and will hopefully hold you over until the game's full completion ^_^ I am aiming for an early-to-mid 2018 release for this final demo, with the full game hopefully releasing late 2018 to sometime in 2019, though its hard to predict exactly when it'll be done.

I know I haven't been releasing many new screenshots or sneak-peeks, but I want to keep a lot of the content hidden for when you actually play the game.

So there you have it! I am super excited to share this game with you and all of its little secrets, and I'm hard at work getting it done. Thanks again for following this project and I'll see you next time!

I am hyped for everything weird and unfortunate.

Nice progress bar! It looks like the project is bigger than i imagined it to be. Good luck with that overwhelming amount of work.

Thanks! Sometimes I overwhelm myself with the amount of stuff that's left to do XD But then I remember to just take everything one step at a time and (someday) it'll all be done! ^_^

THERE IS NO WAUTAH. THIS GAMEPAGE IS AN ILLUSION. IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY SEND ANY FURTHER POSTS INTO THE AETHER.

In more seriousness, I think it's good for both us and you to see where the current progress of this game is versus where it wants to be when the next planned release is, even if the date is an approximation.

Did... I say something like this before? I feel like I have.
It's good to see normal and fortunate things happening finally :D
That looks like great progress to me.

Your incredible productivity never ceases to impress, unity. I can't wait to see the weirdness (and unfortunateness?) you've got in store for us next! Great work!
I think sewer levels are underrated.
weird and unfortunate things are happening... but slowly.
So after Middle school comes A Fantasy Place... why didn't I had a fantasy place after middle school? (
Glad to hear you've gotten your productivity back. Looking forward to the demo!
