Hi, everyone.
This isn't something that I was looking forward to typing out but I had already made this decision two days ago, and this is I'm going to hold off on this update that I had originally planned for 1/31/2025. It won't be indefinite and I will not take the game off of Steam either. Instead, I will leave it where it is right now and focus on hiring a (more) skilled programmer to help layout the foundation of the game utilizing the ARPG System Template and Dungeon Architect. The direction is will be more focused on a particular gameplay style that I love but never could have done on my own.
I know this is something similar to what a lot of indie devs would post and then never update the game again and move onto greener pastures, but that isn't what I have in mind. This game must be made and will be in due time, but to a standard that I would be proud of. As for the update that I had planned to release... there's already a dungeon that is 95% done (monsters, sfx, vfx, layout, etc) but even then, I wasn't happy with what was before me. It felt like a poor man's Dragon's Dogma and I didn't want any of it.
I will be updating everyone on the progress of the update once I find a programmer (be it Fiverr or elsewhere). You can find out on the Discord server and on X (Twitter).
I do apologize for doing this but I feel that this is the best course of action to take. See ya'll when I do.
