Looking for a game tester

So, I am looking for someone who, wants to help with development a bit, by testing the game for bugs. As you know, I am the only programmer working on GE, thus I know the game inside out and it is hard for me to find bugs, as when I playtest, I just speedrun without much thought. Thus, if you are in...

A little taste of AzazelzAI's art for the game

This is the goddess of GE's world. This is an early stage image and there will be a ton of changes to it, but just for a reference to you when voting.

Would you like to see AzazellzAI's art in game?

For more info refer to the last post, but in short, as Vlision can't make renders for a while, would you like to see AzazellzAI's AI art be an alternative artwork style in the game?

The future of Growing Explorations' character art

As I have mentioned before, Vlision, the guy behind the renders of GE has had a problem with his SSD, and all the render files for the game are gone. He is working on redoing them, but as this will take a very long, I have decided to start commissioning a great AI artist, AzazellzAI. Here are his de...

Hello everyone! I have been working on Growing Explorations and I am proud to say, that by the 9th, the next update would come.

Growing Explorations v0.5.1

So, as you all seemed to not like how the new combat worked, I have changed it yet again. It is quite a dramatic change yet again, but it should feel better at least. The main thing is that now you need to charge the attack in order to hit. Basically you can't just click, you need to hold the at...

Some people have complained about combat being too unfun, I want to gain feedback in order to know if a change needs to be made. Thus, I would like to know if you like the new combat or not?

More on the concept of the new game

I want to talk more about the new game I am developing, about which I talked in the last post. Because of this, I advise you read it first.The game centers around the Adrenae, a human-like race living in a deep, lush forest. The most notable difference between Adrenae and humans is the physical disp...

As I have mentioned in a previous post, I have begun work on a new game, which will be patreon exclusive! I want to talk a bit more as to what this game will be like.First of all, unfortunately, Vlision's PC suffered an SSD failure, which resulted in the loss of all GE's render scenes and sl...

1 Year of Development Celebration

One year ago, on 22 March 2023, I and Vlision decided to start developing Growing Explorations (not since release).
