WEEKLY UPDATE!! 6/19/22
🕑 Added 2022-06-20 00:01:01 +0000 UTCThis week, I decided that I needed to put the rough draft maps I was creating on paper into a more legible/editable form. As you can see, these are a few of the early areas within the floating castle:
Layout not final
One of the first ideas I had when conceptualizing the game was to make the final dungeon metroidvania-esque. Obviously within the engine of RPG maker, a direct translation isn’t possible. But, there are still multiple ways of getting around this labyrinthian dungeon, with treasures, secrets, and shortcuts to uncover! My aim is to make the exploration of this final area fun, not a chore to slog through to see the end. There's a reason I wanted to leave this content for it's very own update!
There will be multiple, differently themed areas, some with several floors. It can be a challenge to organize such a complex place just on paper (especially with my handwriting), but by laying it out like this, I can easily place the map together in a coherent way. I plan on releasing the full map into the walkthrough as well, so this isn’t just to help me get my bearings! You’ll be getting the benefits of this too!
By the way, have you gotten the chance to complete the Crimson Veil Player Satisfaction survey? If you haven't yet, you can find it at the link below. It's a short survey that shouldn't take more than a few minutes to fill out. The feedback from the data you provide is invaluable to the game's development, so I hope that you can find the time to do it.

I better get back to work though. Until next week everyone!

Love the complete game, not gonna lie. If you do a sequel to this, could I ask you a small favor? I would just LOVE to be a part of it as a writer. PlEASE consider it, PRETTY PLEASE??

Won't deny that a tiny part of me could see one possible entrance/exit being near where the game began... Plus due to a contract idea involving part if a secret cave maze, behind one of the waterfalls near the library, I could see it connecting to the metroidvania final area.
