Saturday Devlog (February 5)
🕑 Added 2022-02-05 15:58:16 +0000 UTCHi, everyone! Hope you're doing well and having a fantastic start to February! Happy Lunar New Year for those who are celebrating, and may fortune find you the rest of this coming year. :)
Writing is progressing pretty smoothly at the start of this month, with 6000 words knocked out before my college semester starts next week. I'm setting my sights on a 25k+ word update as well as a side story for February, which will hopefully be doable as coursework is generally very light at the start of the semester.
Speaking of the next update, it will finally feature some long-overdue fighting scenes! The assassination of Oyuna Jiasei will finally kick into gear, and the mystery enshrouding Jiasei will be slowly unraveled as we progress through the update. It will also feature a new paired-opposite stat called Ercei vs. Arcana, which will measure how much you rely upon your newfound power as opposed to traditional spells (which got a bit of a facelift during your stay with Arcadia!). It's all very exciting (and very daunting to code, aha).
As per usual, briefs for monthly features have been sent out to the relevant artists, and we should be getting the full batch back towards the end of February. There will also be a couple of posts following this one, one of them a sneak peek for the next update (featuring Chian Tanryu/the Kyuhan kugen's spy, and a bit of insight into what your assassination mission will entail).
Last but not least, I'll also be uploading a poll on art features, now that we've somewhat exhausted the NPCs for whom a portrait can be drawn. Current ideas include arcana and spell visualizations, among others, and the comment section will also be open to Arcanists for options to be added to the list.
And that about wraps it up for this week's update! As always, thank you for supporting the development of A Mage Reborn!
