Out into the big world
🕑 Added 2023-09-08 17:26:29 +0000 UTCHi everyone! It's Friday, which is always one of my most productive game-making days, even with things being busy again right now. I have, however, nearly done all of the part of chapter 5 that takes place in Sapphory City, and next task is to start map-making for Fivaviana!
Up top, you can see we now have a world map of sorts, this part of it only shows a very small area of Sapphory, and will visually illustrate your journey to Fivaviana. The West Coast around the capital is very heavily defended, and you can see one of the many Sapphorian Navy patrol groups nearby.
Your journey to Fivaviana will be quite a pleasant one though - most freight and passenger travel in Sapphory uses the large network of canals that run the length and width of the island, but getting between two port cities is even easier, requiring only a short excursion up the coast by ferry. There's even a bar on board.
I'm excited to begin exploring more of Sapphory - there's a lot there, and we'll be visiting a few different places during the game's development cycle. We haven't even finished fully exploring Sapphory City itself yet. We still have the Great Arena, Mount Pleasant and the imposing Royal Palace in the game's future. Sometimes the biggest mysteries are right on your doorstep.
I'm hoping to be able to show you more of Fivaviana soon, along with some stuff about what else will be going into 0.7 - as we saw last week, the council has expressed a preference for more development outside school, so we'll talk about that very soon. Meanwhile, I'm heading back to work, have a great weekend!
