hi cool ppl who are following this project.
wanted to keep folks in the loop with how things are going re: full version of Small Town Emo.
bad news / delays etc:
in order to get the game in a healthy spot we made the call to update from GB Studio version 3.03 to 3.21. this provided a bunch of bugfixes and new features ((mentioned here)) BUUUUUUT came at the cost of breaking a bunch of stuff!!!
because this game is a part-time side project, lots of dev time has gone into fixing things, which has delayed the release goal. sadly there's still more *~elbow grease~* needed to get up and running again. PLUS there's a chunk of art that still needs art-ing, and some music that needs 2 b musicked... which brings us to our other (cooler) news:
collabing w/ robot meadows + others:
we're really excited to be commissioning some ~originale~ tracks from Robot Meadows 2 add 2 the awesome asset pack tracks weve been using from Mr V. and Beatscribe. Robot Meadows makes fantastic music, plzzz check out their first album Star Cycles.
we have ALSO reached out to a very cool pixel artist friend to create assets to help w/ the release. this will help get us back on track so thats something to lewk forward 2 (very excited)
TL;;DR
release is delayed by X months. collaborating with some cool ppl to make it real good tho. sorry and thank you <3
