#Devlog aka Mondays with WhiteRaven
🕑 Added 2024-01-10 13:24:41 +0000 UTCI might start calling these posts devlog in a near future, this is essentially what they were. To be honest I just liked the name Mondays with WhiteRaven more. Like it was some sort of cozy start of the working week.
What have I been doing? Except not writing these posts...
Well, I have been updating both the games during the holidays. Wrote a document on some of the plans I have for A New Dawn and a few polls. So I figured you didn't really need one of these posts even tho it has gone a few more days than I'd like to.
I have started the new year with a decision to give A New Dawn a fresh start, mayor play testing, smashing as many bugs as I can while giving the introduction some fresh spice. Even added Bogwart to the introduction.
All dreams in human town have been re-worked, instead of the clunky picture animation within RPG maker MV I have created some simple animations which you can skip. I have also shortened the time waited before and after the dreams. Now you can also decide if you want to skip the second dream which I've learned that a few people thought was a bug. I made Victoria have two dreams each night to speed up the progress, it wasn't some random bug that just appeared!
The meanwhile scenes have also been re-worked, one happening after you go with the horse boy in the intro while the other happens after the first night in the human city. Each meanwhile scene is supposed to give some information on how her mother is doing and what is happening to her.
I always thought that the start of the game needed some work because I wasn't happy with how I created scenes before hiring Martiandawn and learning to do animations. The start is also when the player will decide to give the game a fair chance or just simply give up. Also a buggy game isn't fun for anyone!
What will I keep doing until the next devlog post?
While I have been doing other things, for the game, like 8 new rng based scenes using old animations. Added a new mission and changed the latest mission a little. I will keep my focus on removing as many bugs as I can from the game. Depending on how quickly Martiandawn will finish the animations, if they're finished I will write the scenes. One scene is with the old man, the other is with a minotaur inside the orc city.
Until next post!
Cheers!
Yours truly WhiteRaven
