Progress Report

A learning dummy and a friendly community

Let's see....it's been more than 1 year since the release of Cate Quest. A silly dumb game made for a friend, and first, most embarrassing game released to public.

What's worst is that I never included Firefly84 as a tester until now. Talk about being a beginner in rpgmaker.net
Anyway, one of my game, A Night near the Woods, reminded me about this game. (The talk about Shibo making Cate a hero in a game instead of being the bad guys.)

I think it's also a great opportunity to thank the friendly community of RPGmaker.net for allowing this abomination game to be released in public. Thank you guys, it really means a lot to me. Thanks.

Maybe, just maybe. I should one day come back and improve this game (And it's horrible grammars) Or perhaps, maybe, make a Cate Quest 2? It's not popular or great, but I sure as heck enjoyed making it, as long I have fun making fun stuff, I'm sure the players will have fun as well? We'll see, only time will tell.


Edit: To those that are wondering, yes, there is a Doge Saga, made by Stormcrow and me :D And there once was a small doggo made for his school project that was never released to the public...Doge Quest.
Also now that I look back, How. In the. Heck was this approved with those images. Thank you so much, kind friendly community of RPGmaker.net T.T

Changelog 1.3

Well, bug fix again, haha.

Don't wear a huge hat if you don't have a big head, they said.
The reason I wore such a big hat? Well, I wanted to try, everything has its first time, no? (I did small project in the past, and wanted to try something huge)

But either way, it really was a good experience. I really appreciate firefly84 and some other friends(They didnt register RPGMaker, don't know why.) that message me about the bugs and problems. And learning to game design more on the player's perspective view.

Thanks for all the help and support guys!

Progress Report

Changelog 1.2

Credit to firefly84

- Forgot to turn on the self switch for the Behemoth, resulting in spam rewards from boss. Silly me =p

- Added a cancel for class change. Because I find it annoying to not fix this as well.

-Added text message reward for certain friend request.

Again, I'm sorry to those who downloaded and facing problems to my game.
For those that wish to continue their progress, please move your save folder and paste it into the new version of the game downloaded.

Edit: New ver is now up. Do notify me if there's still bugs running around.

Announcement

I'm sorry TT bug fix.

Some of the players have message me that there is a game crashing bug inside the
game during one of the optional cutscene.
I'm really sorry on how I missed it out and didn't fix it before release.

There also appears to be a targeting problem which was made by the cursor, so moving away your cursor should fix it.

I will re-upload as soon as possible after fixing it.
For those that wish to continue their progress, please move your save folder and paste it into the new version of the game downloaded.

Again, I am terribly sorry and thank you for trusting me and downloading it.

Edit: forgive me if I delete+reupload download. I wasn't sure if there was an edit button, got a bit rush to reupload a fixed version. Sorry!
