1.0 Expectations
🕑 Added 2025-04-13 20:44:01 +0000 UTCHey :)
We meet again.
Let's chat for a bit.
As usual I've been working on Statues. Slowly chipping away.
But what is the end goal? Why are we chipping? Well, I'm glad you asked.
In today's episode of What am I doing with my life... We'll answer these questions and more.
But in all seriousness I do want to talk about the current plans for 1.0. I went back and forth between doing a quick wrap up (some kind of post game mode where you can revisit every scene and be done with it), or a more involved "second ending" epilogue, something that would truly end the story and I can finally move on without looking back. I decided to do the latter.
Now that I'm done with the planning I feel a bit more confident talking about this. So with that said. The plan is roughly another 15-20 scenes, some animated. All added up it's probably going to be another 1-2hr of content. Dialog, some hidden interactions, etc. But inevitably that means a lot of work.
But Taboossy when do we get the Stussy? I hear you ask.
On the one hand, I like giving rough ETAs because it helps me focus and actually finish things in a timely manner. On the other hand, it stresses me.
So... No more ETAs :)
At least until I'm sure I can deliver.
I know it's not the mature thing to do. But at the end of the day my situation as a developer hasn't changed. I'm still doing things solo, I'm still working on my free time, etc etc. Life is hard, we get it.
But don't worry I won't turn this into a decade long project or something crazy like that. Probably. It'll be done when it's done... Within a reasonable amount of time.
Needless to say I still enjoy it very much. Coming up with ideas, thinking of fun ways to surprise the player, etc etc. But holy fuck... It's so much work... It's a lesson that I keep learning.
That about cover everything I wanted to talk about.
As always I thank you all for the patience, understanding and support.
Goodbye :)
PS: There's a part of me that is only doing this because it'd be so fucking funny if a game about boinking statues goes viral on Steam.
PSPS: Pretend I finished rendering the picture. I wanted to finish it before posting but it was taking too long already. Oh well the important part is looking good ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
