Because New England.

Anyways, welcome to the April Progress Report! To be honest, there isn't a ton of progress, or much of a report. But it certainly is April, so one out of three is good enough I guess.

As of now, I have just over double the amount of content than what is in the demo. Through playtesting (and mind you, this is practically speedrunning from Point A to Points B, C, D, etc), I have 1 hour and 10 minutes of content. So for players, that probably amounts to 1:30. That includes the area after the Forest, a couple of major cutscenes and the whole second dungeon (with complete story), as well as the second major decision. That largely means that two of the game's five dungeons are complete.

So you're probably wondering "this is still going to be a 2 hour game, right?" Well, the good news is that that's very unlikely at this point! I'm estimating that the game will be at least 3-4 hours long, with incentives for multiple playthroughs. In general, the game ended up being more ambitious than I planned it to be, so I've put a firm lock on the game's scope as not to inflate the development time any further. What I have in stone is what I have in stone.

The bittersweet news is that as far as my personal life goes, I am starting a full time job soon! And while that means that development may slow down for a little while as I get my schedule figured out, I may still be on track to get this puppy out by the year's end at the pace that I'm currently going.

Thank you all again for keeping up with this project! \o/
