Good afternoon!
Work on 0.3.4 has been slower than usual, but that's mostly due to December being December. But I do have one thing to show off: the Quest Journal!
I found that there was no indication of what to do next, or what happened before, when playing Ruphand again after a long break. The Quest Journal is meant to rectify this.
This will be accessible in 0.3.4. It serves as a way to track Brill's next objective, as well as a rough guide to available Side Quests.
Afternoon!
I've just discovered and fixed a bug related to the new recipe
introduced in 0.3.3; the NPC would give you the incorrect recipe. I've
uploaded a fixed version of 0.3.3, so downloading 0.3.3 again and moving
your save should get the recipe right. If you already received the
incorrect recipe, you should be able to talk to the NPC again and get
the right one.
0.3.4 is still in the works. I'll have a few screenshots here before long!
Afternoon!
It's been ten months since the last update (sorry about that- there was a lot to deal with, to say the least), but I finally updated the game again. This update advances the main story, with plenty of new treasures to be had and plenty of new enemies to face as Brill sets out in search of the Orb of Wind.
Get the new update on the Downloads page!
Next up, I think I'll add a few quality of life changes- the most important being a Quest Journal, where you can quickly see information on both the main story and side quests.
NEW CONTENT:
-The main story continues. Two new full dungeons (and some other
dangerous areas) have been added. Once the Skystep Boots are yours, seek
out a place to use them...
EDIT 10/28: I ran into some issues both in real life and in development which slowed me down a lot. Should be past them soon, but I most likely won't have the update out by the end of the month. I'm sorry it's taking so long. I'll be able to focus on 0.3.3 soon.
EDIT 10/1: 0.3.3 is taking longer than expected, but it's still in the works. It should be out relatively soon.
Good afternoon!
It's been some time since I posted here. Sorry about that- there were a few obligations I had to deal with, and there was also a bit of a creative block I ran into, likely due to all the mapping and new tileset stuff I needed to do.
I've gotten some important work done on that front, though. Here's some screenshots I took of what I've been working on!
"A forest? In my sky?" It's more likely than you think.
After way too much time, Update 0.3.2 is finally released! It's available on the Downloads page as usual.
This update will add a new area to the game. Jad's Folly is a large dungeon, big enough to be considered equivalent to three smaller dungeons. It can be unlocked at around the same time the most recent Main Story dungeon opens.
Next up- quite literally up, in this case- is the next main story dungeon...
NEW CONTENT:
-Jad's Folly has been added in Defia. These ancient ruins are initially closed off to the player. But once you've spoken to Kazu in the Silent Clan Village at least once, someone will be waiting to speak with you in the cliffs to the south; talking to her will begin the sidequest that lets you into Jad's Folly.
Graphical Updates:
-Early-game areas through the Barrier Wood and Levitt's Landing have much more detail work done, courtesy of Yanfly's Grid Free Doodads plugin!
Bugfixes:
-A number of smaller bugs have been fixed behind the scenes, such as one that caused Snøfløyen's Frozen Flame attack to ignore Defense.
Good afternoon!
I'm done going over old maps for now- maps through the Barrier Wood Crossroads and Levitt's Landing have been revisited, and will have updated appearances in the next update.
Update 0.3.2 will have a single new side-quest dungeon that's technically three new side-quest dungeons; while exploring these dungeons, Brill will have help from a returning guest character.
As before, I'll be doing a "progress report" that I'll update every Saturday.
Good evening!
After much deliberation and several unusual ninja-related incidents, 0.3.1 has finally been released! This update continues the main story, as well as fixing a few more bugs and adding some new items. Download it from the downloads page!
Next up... some of the maps were made when I was pretty green at this whole map-making thing, and it shows. I'm going to do a playthrough myself, and go over old maps with a fine-toothed comb, adding some more details as I go through each map.
NEW CONTENT:
-The main story continues. For those who reached its previous end, visit Castle Evrandel and talk to the Knight at its gates to continue.
-In a lonely Assembly in Defia, a healer rewards those who have cured many innocents of injury and illness.
-The mysterious bank of fog that just popped up north of Brumar... is absolutely useless right now! But there's going to be more to it. Trust me on this.
BUGFIXES:
-Enemies with animated battle sprites have had their pictures in the Bestiary fixed.
-A number of Bestiary entries had "spacing numbers" removed.
-Some of the Tier 3 potions that had erratic effects or were missing animations have had these problems corrected.
-The Storm Elemental's Storm Bane now properly displays its "Inflicts Wind Weakness if not Blocked" component.
PREVIOUSLY KNOWN ISSUES (Patched late 8/18):
-A single NPC lacked dialogue in the Royal Castle.
-Marissa would be standing around the castle after the event where she appears.
-A few ninjas were a little too eager to climb around on the Dojo roof. Master Kazu appreciated that they were taking the initiative, but the Dojo can't have people climbing around on its walls and distracting people, so this has been patched.
