Just a quick one today. The companion side quests are taking shape, but I realize I have a lot of work, especially writing, ahead of me. My crazy, crazy goal is to get at least the quest parts done in the next week. However, I have a few things going in my favor: first, I have a
Changes Added menu arrow and direction controls to quest conversations (previously not added) Re-added all quest types, with twists Bugfixes Fixed bug when loading a save and using the inventory
Changelog Changes Quest now have twists which change how the quest develops and ends. Each quest type has 3-4 twists which can make it more challenging. Added companions Companions spawn in towns and abbeys, one companion per stratum. Companions will travel with you and help out,
The past month and a half I've been in and out of the field, and admittedly facing a bit of writer's block and lack of inspiration. However, I've had a talk with my mentor and I've made a plan to release (or at least get close) before the end of the year. That will take a heavy a
I've been working diligently these last few weeks on companions (after being sent out in the field again), and I've nearly ready to get a new update out, but it will probably happen later this week (maybe Friday). I've mainly been working on tactics and companion interactions. Di
I'm back from being in the field this week, and I've been working on a lot recently! First off, I have re-added puzzle doors. So far I have re-added 3 different types. I'll probably eventually make a few more of those, but right now was just getting the proof of concept down once
Changes: Added in sins to all quest conversations and encounters All sins will give you some sort of short term benefit Added clothing shops Added the effects of effects Added more encounters Transmogrified all the panels into different art styles Added sausages Bugfixes: Added c
Changes Added confession Added difficulty scaling as a result of sin Added penance quests Added more artwork to encounters and Secret rendering mode Added some sin tracking to some situations Name change! Rogues of Europa is now Rogues' Purgatory Store presence is also changed wi
I went back into the field almost immediately, but I still am making progress here. I decided against an update sooner because I wanted to get a little more content in before I did so. I'm almost ready for the final 0.3 update. The plan looking forward is to fully implement the s
After coming back from the field, I have been working on penance quests. Essentially, they're going to very strongly resemble the existing quests, except they won't have a reward. The "reward," granted in advance, will be a reduction in difficulty brought on by sinful shortcuts t
Changes Added 18 or so encounters Changed many encounters to automatically trigger when moving into the relevant grid. Changed some encounters to be able to be re-triggered. Some encounters give experience points. Added some more functionality in the secret rendering mode. Techni
I have been very diligently working on encounters the past two weeks, but I also have to be studying for an examination this Tuesday, so that was cramping my style a bit. However, I'm already at 25 encounters, so already halfway to the goal of about 50. I'll probably drop an upda
Changes Added 9 new cave encounters, which spawn in caves exclusively Added some new encounter artwork Fixes Fixed Spires not being renamed on signs. Known Issues Not all encounters have artwork. The pink square missingno texture will be a placeholder Work has been progressing en
It's Sunday, and I feel like I accomplished everything I wanted to this week. I did a lot of bugfixes earlier in the week, with many thanks to those who submitted reports. I should have been better with some of the QC things, but it was what it was, and things should be a bit mor
Changes Under-the-hood changes to encounters, and some slight rebalancing Spires now have more dignified names Fetch quests will now indicate the closest Spire to the target location, if available Bugfixes Fixed a bug where NPCs would get stuck or jump to locations instantly Fixe
Changes Finished the last of the conversations. Minor grammatical fixes. Devlog Easter blessings to all! Surrexit vere, alleluia! I did actually manage to meet the goal and timeline I set for myself here, to get all the conversations done, and hopefully everything is working the
Changes Added more conversations (now at least 8 different conversations per quest type) Conversations now reset at the end of the day. Quests no longer permanently lock when refused. Most locations now have descriptions (rather than ???). Many buildings also have descriptions. A
Another quick one this week. My wife and I were entertaining some guests and that crimped my time a bit. I now have 24 regular and 24 mini conversations to write, and 27 days of Lent left to write them. Maybe I should temper my expectations a little bit but I will maintain some o
Just a quick one this week. I've been working relatively hard on conversations, and managed to fill out a bunch of them. In terms of progress, I have 24 large conversations and 30 mini ones left, which could be done in as early as three weeks from now, but more realistically will
Changes Added abbeys and their inhabitants Abbeys contain a church, cells, fields, and a kitchen. Monks, nuns, abbots, and abbesses work, pray, and sleep Added the fetch quest Added additional conversations for the "clear" quests Changed some verbiage in the HUD Bugfixes Fixed a
