Next Alpha schedule!
Added 2022-07-07 13:08:35 +0000 UTCHello there you guys, this month the pool for the next alpha was finished, the majority of Tier 3+ patrons decided on option number 4, do whatever you want! This means I can think for myself this month haha.
Ok, no jokes now, since I can decide what I can do, I'm split into continuing to comb through KArnal Day3.JSON (Which is Day4 ingame) and Day4.Json (Which is Day5 ingame) or just continuing Karnal's route. I also want to make the sound effects thing but I need to find good sound effects and that alone takes time, I will try to spend one day or two every week to find those SFX, specifically royalty-free ones since I'm not making enough to buy sounds for the game for now.
Anyway, the next alpha is scheduled to be released between the 25 - 29th of this month, as always. If any new artwork is finished or sketched, you guys on Tier 3 will receive the timelapse, while Tier2 patrons will receive a compressed version of the sketch to look at. Finished artworks are always a Tier 3+ patron, don't forget that. But I can't say for sure if we'll have new artwork yet.
I want to thank you all for coming here and helping with the project. For the first time in years, we almost hit the first milestone for the game, and this is huge.
If you want to send the game to a friend to test, please share the itch.io public version with them, maybe this will make them interested in helping here too! :D
I will decide by the end of this week what I should be doing for this alpha, but I hope this can be a productive month like the last one (I was able to fix a lot of issues that were annoying me last build).
And yeah, I probably should have mentioned this before, but Alphas are now named Build, Patreon Builds released monthly here for you all, and Public Builds, released every four months or so on itch.io, which will be going up considerably in version until it reaches a point of five versions apart from Patreon itself. That will leave you all here five versions ahead of the public. After that, I will probably create two versions of the same build, and the only thing that will change on them is the name, so Public Builds can go to the public with PUBLIC instead of Alpha, and so on. I will decide how to rename the builds in-game eventually.
Anyway, thank you all for your support and for reading my ramblings here. Now, I should go back to rest (because I'm still sick but better though), while I think and decide what should I do this month with the time I've been given.
I'll see you all next update!
