On this day, one year ago, something very special happened.
I released my first video game.
Happy anniversary, OMNIFATE!
Unfortunately, I don't really have anything big to announce today. No c'Raig Sweepstakes, no new chapters of OMNIFATE 2, (unconfirmed) or anything like that.
I did have an update and a sale planned, but unfortunately, life has been rather hectic for me lately, so I was not able to get either set up in time.
If you are interested in a sale, though, a special something related to a sale might be coming soon... hmmm
Although I don't have anything big to announce today, I do have some things!
You may have noticed I said "first video game." "First" would imply multiple, right?
Yes, that is correct. More games are coming!
I won't be revealing any details about them right now, as I have to focus on school, but the one I am currently working on has had more total development time than the RPG version of OMNIFATE, with lots of QoL stuff added and will overall be a fun experience, I think.
A lot of this has been backported to OMNIFATE, but not all. Little secret: most of the additions of the 1.10.0.x updates were features added during development of this new game, backported to OMNIFATE, and obviously going back and fixing buggy things.
You may want the new games right now. Unfortunately, game development takes time, and I'm not prepared to share any more details right now, as I don't want to repeat the same mistakes I made during initial development of OMNIFATE.
With that said, I haven't given up platformers forever, and has anyone noticed my media outlets have been saying "plane" a lot recently?
As for the OMNIFATE side of its anniversary: I have two things to announce.
1) OMNIFATE will be receiving a content update sometime. Not sure when because of how busy I've been lately, but it will be coming someday. It will fix some bugs I've noticed, add even more QoL stuff, native Steam API support including Steam Input, and something else...
2) ...localization...? I can't say what language just yet, as there's a lot of things still going on behind-the-scenes for it. I know what you're thinking; it won't be Japanese.
With that said, thank you for enjoying the game. Here's to another year, another decade, and maybe even a century of OMNIFATE, if Steam survives till then.
