I want to talk for a minute about the plans for Heavenly Peaks Cultivation and the direction the project is headed.
I didn't delve too much into why and how Bai Huan arrived on the Immortal Mountain, because those things will slowly be revealed near the end of the game's prologue (which is ...

I'm aware, most of these characters haven't made an appearance yet. But, soon for some.

*Note, the last version of the game released was 0.8. Due to stability, I decided to bump the project up to version 1.0*
First off, Merry Christmas (if you celebrate), if not -- Happy Holidays!

I was on track to release tomorrow and technically I still could. But there's a few things I want / need to do for this update before I will feel truly satisfied.
With that in mind, I think I will push the release date to the 22nd, so Wednesday.

While taking a break from some "heavy work", I decided to tinker with a few more character creations.
Since they are mother and daughter they resemble each other in many ways. There are quite a few minute differences as well though.
For example body types:

This is a character that you will meet once Academy days begin.
I still have a good bit of time to finalize things. I may change her face a bit more, but for now I'm happy about the way it's turning out.
Thoughts?
I'm back, like I never left!
Fingers crossed, I can get a new PC before the release. I'm working on it!
P.S. Normally this would be version 0.10, but I decided to jump the version to 1.0. It's stable enough and -- what the hell, the new year is nearly upon us.

If you're not in the US Thanksgiving is this week. If you are, and simply don't celebrate -- Happy Holidays in regards to what you do celebrate around this time.
Work for me will resume around the 27th, see you then!

After a certain point, Bai Huan is introduced to battle. At first there will be very little you can do during combat but later on you will be able to take more action.
Battle is active and allows for switching of battle stances. Each battle stance has a different benefit and should be used ...
2021-11-21 07:48:47 +0000 UTC View PostIt may be a month or two -- (really depends on how well I can improve the work flow this month and next), but Bai Huan's entry into the Golden Lotus Academy is around the corner.
With that in mind, I have a decision to make. The project currently does not generate enough support to pay for ...

After nearly 2 days and 20 hours of toil (no lie, I kept getting weird results!) I managed to compress the game to a great point without loss of visuals.

I'll leave the fate of the holiday release schedule to you!
Holidays are generally a busy time of the year. Still, I don't anticipate a major difference with the release scheduling. Realistically speaking, this may mean a bit less content for updates -- but I don't think it will be to...

Hey folks!
This past weekend (Friday) attended my brother's wedding. It was nice, to see family and friends! After that I took a bit of a break on Friday and Saturday evening. Sunday I worked on the project and I am currently working on it now (lunch break!)

Also, if I haven't said it before, thanks for supporting Heavenly Peaks. I've been largely silent with this update as I'm trying something new. Doing the work, then sharing it!

0.8 has very few feature additions, instead opting to focus on progressing Bai Huan's story. This comes by way of Mai and her quest to confront the "creature" in the Forest. Along the way, you meet a new face that offers an unexpected olive branch.

Just yesterday I ran across a glitch that may result in unexpected behavior for the game, essentially allowing you to click on buttons beneath your current screen.

It's been kind of bothering me that I haven't been able to add as much content as I want lately!

Originally, when I came up with the system of stat growth for Heavenly Peaks, I intended for it to be a slow build sort of thing. The purpose of that was simple, to allow the player to do other things like craft and socialize without worrying about spending all of their time training.

2021-10-14 17:42:12 +0000 UTC View PostThat took a bit longer than I thought, but I think I have managed to reach a decent stopping point while still adding a good amount of new content.
Most of the additions revolve around telling more of the Main story which relates to Mai as well.
Here is the full list:
I've been wondering if it's better to include more story content in 0.7, or just do the lite update like I have planned. With this in mind, I decided to leave the decision to you all.
