Crysalis progress report (2024-06-20)
🕑 Added 2024-06-26 11:00:07 +0000 UTCHey folks,
I have good news and bad news. I guess the bad news first.
I won't be releasing any playable game updates this month. The reason is pretty simple: Too much to do, too little time.
Please continue reading though!
I am planning to give a playable update out towards mid July, where you can also gauge the final scope of the game.
Now the good news. Game development progresses nicely. I had a few set backs (like losing the combat code), but otherwise I'm making good progress.
What is in now, are a couple more unrelated things, that I am going to knit together.
What there is now, is a dialogue system, where you can interact with objects (to get a little text about it, or have a full blown conversation, also with question answering and such.
And yes, people will have their pronouns visible, which I just think is a nice little touch :3
Outdoors work too and you can walk around, swim around (once you have gotten the ability) and do other things.
Also, as you can see, there is different weather and there will also be different times of day and such.
The idea is to have the world a little bit more dynamic, so you can potentially also just live in it.
Last, but not least, I am working on the intro. These will be cut scenes, you can also skip.
And yeah, there will be an ancient language of the Gods :3
That is all things I have already, what I would like to add are a few things:
a questing system, with one test quest
one or two mini-game systems (magic and fishing)
naming of your character (and choosing their pronouns)
saving/loading progress
story elements, around all of the above parts
The next update might not contain all of that, but as soon as I feel it has "enough", I will release it, so you can play it.
Generally, the goal is to have the entire act 1 ready this year, so it can be released to the public, as a demo.
That includes the entire area filled with NPCs, enemies and such, all necessary mini-games implemented and ready and the first part of the main quest playable.
