We've prepared a progress report for December 2022. The main event for "Tenebrae" was the release of the game's demo. This was followed by working on bugs, optimizing the project and predicting further development. Now let's go through it step-by-step. The content of the demo: -
We're back with an update on the development progress and preparation of the demo. During October we didn't manage to complete all our tasks, but we are much closer to the release of the demo. In the image with stats you can see which areas are being worked on. - The scenes direc
We want to tell you what we have achieved in September and what the current state of the Tenebrae demo looks like. Characters We have finished drawing all the characters involved in the demo. They have already been added to the engine, animated and ready for shot directing. Speak
We wrote our last report on the project in December to take a look back over the past year. Since then, we've done a lot of work, got even more people involved in the project and now a lot of effort is being put into getting the demo out for about 3-5 hours of reading. With this
Everyone around is summing up the results of the year and we are no exception. Let's start with the fact that it was this year that the project moved from prototype to production. And right now, almost half of the work is done, even though the project is extremely huge! At the en
