Last news post of 2023
🕑 Added 2024-01-01 04:16:17 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
Let me go ahead and go a quick update for you all since today is new years eve.
First off, this month rather sucked for work. Between the holidays it was rather difficult for the team and I to meet or even chat over discord. I think next year we might just do a news post early and let everyone rest for the holiday.
Programming and Delay
Well we had problems with our testing server. We spent the month figuring why our system wasn't connecting to the itch.io page. Thankfully we did find the problem and it's working. Minle once again carrying the programming. Once we can do a real test of the system we will update the testing channel. This delay on the testing system took away time from the crafting system. Which means that we need more time for the overall update since I don't want to release the new update without it and I don't want to rush it. So we decided to push the update from January to the end of February.
Because of this delay, I going to try to make some more changes to the way we update. I was thinking of getting a community manager to help manage the discord and help me with pushing news post. Getting news out to you all has been a struggle and hopefully having someone will help.
Art
I started working on the new monster animations and polishing Avina's animations. I also started working on the new combat moves. I'll have some progress gif below.
There is more but I want to save some as a surprise for the update. The extra time has been really great for me to focus on this. I'm not an animator by trade so there is a lot of trial and error with this. I can tell I'm slowly improving and I can't wait to show you all what I have worked on.
Now the reveal of the new and final knight of EOK!
This is our bard named Fen. They will be helping Avina and the rest to save the kingdom. I'll have more info about them soon. Thank you everyone for helping pick the animal for the knights.
In the future, we might let the community vote on the animal for villains or bosses. So keep an eye out on the discord.
Music
Warden has been killing it in the music department. This update I wanted to have sound effects for the new crafting system to give it more polish. On top of that I wanted him to start working on themes for each of the knights. This month he did Avina's Theme. Down below you can give it a listen.
Writing
Our residence fox writer is busy writing the scripts and new stories for the new monster we have planned. Once we get the script for the intro, I'll start working on a quick sketch of the opening and our voice actor can start recording. I hope to get some samples for you to hear this coming month.
End of post
This is the end of the final news post of 2023. Thank you all for supporting this game. Its been a crazy year and even when we had changed planned I'm really happy with the future of this game. I'm looking forward to see what we can create with this team. I hope to see you all next year. I think we as a team will focus on our flagship while doing side projects. Things really got rough after the Unity and forum event but we came out as a stronger team. Here's to the new year!
HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE! WELCOME 2024!
