v14 Update 12-19-2025

It's been quite a while since my last post. There hasn't been too much to share really. I've been finishing up paragon, which is done by the way! both renegade and paragon are both complete as of writing this post.

however, there's still one or two story events I need to work on. Epilogue scenes to paragon's playthrough. I usually do previ...

Secret Scenes? Demon King?

Yeah, that was a bad joke.

Anyways, todaaay I'd like to talk about something I've seen that has been widely requested.

With revamps and rewrites, it's only natural that not everything could cross over. This includes certain scenes like the one with Melia and Valarie in Aquamarine, or the scene with Melia, the player and Aelita in Ter...

Shade of Umbral

Last week I teased Shayda (with a new and proper look).

So, who is Shayda?
For those who don't remember (Spoilers to v13 content here)

Shayda is the witch Anathea approaches for her love incantation. This was seen in Erin's Zeight scene.

In v14, she resides in the Aevium Development Center in Kugearen City. If you are on yo...

Past Regrets

After finishing up Renegade last week, I needed a BREAK from main story. Like, seriously.
So I decided to go and do some low effort fun stuff to break up the tension.

It's almost like I don't know myself. I never end up doing "low effort" work. I'm annoying.

So, what did I do?

I opened up rpgmaker. Started scrolling through ...

Renegade Update + Something Else!

So, if you haven't been keeping up with my socials, or you aren't in the Discord, I just want to repeat that Renegade Route is done!

What does "done" mean in this context?

It means every event that progresses the main story is complete. Polish that includes side details, and other things have not been completed. Additionally, everyth...

New Gearen Events!

So I to extend off what I spoke about with Gen 9... There are two new events that I've done in East Gearen to include some of those Gen 9 mons.

Custom Megaz Rebalancing + 1 more

Hey! So, some team members (mostly Fal, Haru, Alex and Az) went back to our list of custom megas for Rejuv. (This entails max forms being converted into megas), and decided that they're all really boring megas and we want to be more creative with it.

So, like 95% of the custom megas have gotten some changes. You can see all these POTENTIAL...

Gen 9 Extravaganza

hey.

Okay, I'll be real. I've been in a huge rejuv mood so I've been going nuts with development, much to the detriment to my perception of time.

Yes I forgor to post yesterday, and I was about to forget AGAIN. But Zumi reminded me right as I'm about to go out.

So, let's speedrun this post.

I went on kind of a huge spree ...

Test-imonials of the tested. Also an arcade

Hey all. I know I said I was gonna post an update yesterday, but the cold truth is that...

Well, I forgor.

But I'm here, queer, and ready to spread some Team (Xen) Cheer!

So, what happened this week? Well, me and the Team (MoonPaw joined us!!), did an impromptu testing period for part 2 of Paragon!

Here are some testimoni...

General V14 Update!

Hey... how y'all doin.......

Uh... Okay, it's been a while!

So, what's been going on? Well, basically I had to get back on some depression medication and thus had to crash out in silence for a while!! It happens. I didn't work on Rejuv for like a 3 week period. However!! These past few days I got back into it and I have been making s...

v14 General Update

hey! It's been a while since my last update, but rest assured that everything is going smoothly! I've noticed a pattern that has ingrained itself into me. I work like crazy for 1 week, then I burn out for one week, and so on and so forth. Right now I'm on my burnout period lol.

But, that being said, if I'm on my burnout period, that means...

Xen Divisions / Atebit Testing

I'll be honest, this week has been kind of hell lol. Not for me explicitly, but for my family. We've been going through a lot so not much progress has been made, but "not much" implies that -some-, yes?

Well, I took the time to work on the Xen HQ again, this time on Renegade.

The Xen HQ, and, Reldin Island as a whole, is divided into...

The Climb of the Wonder Tower

Last time (I think), I mentioned that there would be a conflict left unresolved, and I showed pictures of the new area exclusive to Renegade.

 [Image ID: Aevia in the GEN 2 world]

That being this picture, but I actually wanted to talk more ab...

Conflicts Left Unchecked (Renegade Spoilers)

Hey everyone !

Things have been going well on my end for once. I finally feel motivated and able to work on things. Definitely not my previous Power Level, but one that's nice and healthy!

I've been back to working on Renegade like I said in the previous post. This time focusing on a certain conflict that was resolved early in Parag...

Bane of the Renegade

So first thing's first, no Paragon is not done.

But I got too bored of it.

So now I'm doing Renegade stuff!
It's no secret that I've been sort of burned out on things. Not specifically Rejuv related, but just the State(tm) of things and personal things bringing me down.
It's been tough!

But I'm getting through it. Slowly ...

Custom Character Final Update

Hey there. So, I've been debating making this post for a while. I've been hesitant because I'm not one to let go of something (Even to my detriment as my friends would tell me), but I'm just going to come to terms with it.

Unfortunately, I have come to the decision to cancel all orders* for the custom characters commissions. Before I expla...

v14 Update + Speedmap Video!

Happy New Year!

Last year was a tough year for me. Despite that, I was able to get a LOT done.

I unfortunately did not finish my goal of finishing Paragon before the New Year, though. I swear, I feel like every time I set a goal for myself I completely underestimate the time I need to complete it. Sometimes I feel like if I was more...

Miscellaneous V14 Update

hey.

random post on a Thursday afternoon!

I just wanted to give a little bit of an update with stuff. Nothing specific on development, but I think more frequent posts about misc. things could be fun? Idk. I'm trying new things :).

This week I worked on some very important cutscenes. A few (compact) lore bits that ...

v14 Part 1 | Between Heaven and Hell Preview

Enjoy this short preview of v14. The art showcase is being saved for the official public release! The beginning of the v14 is a bit "slow", but trust me it ramps up a lot after that short period...

What will transpire in the final visit to the past?

Well, I know. You will, too.

Eventually.

Progress Report #6 | Final Report

hey.

being honest. I didn't get anywhere near close to my goal by the end of this.
I kind of figured that'd be the case, but I wanted to try anyway. The stuff here is too ambitious, time consuming, and tbh difficult to complete in just a 6 week schedule. I mean, it's been longer than 6 weeks, but I was busy irl and all that. And at cer...

Rejuv 13.5 Dev Livestream!

Hey, just wanted to let everyone know that Zumi and I will be on stream in approximately 25 minutes to talk about the development of Rejuv 13.5! There will also be a live Q/A if you guys are interested in that!

v14 Part 1 Internal Testing Report.

hey.

So, last week I said that Part 1's done, right? right.
This week, I was out of town for a lil and was working on part 2, but during that part 2 I hosted a testing session for part 1! (Side note, I went to go see a live orchestra of avatar the last airbender in philly and it was AMAZING!! My first concert too. Great stuff, great stu...

Progress Report #5 | 10/4/2024

hey, so part 1's done. completely done. Like, it's not tested yet, but it's DONE. i can't believe it. 1/3 finally complete. Part 1 is such a doozy. I can't wait for you all to see it. That being said, we're back to the progress reports!!

I've been on that Rejuv GRIND. My friends haven't heard or seen from me in weeks. I've been in my roo...

Small General Update! Part 1 Progress

heya! I'm back from my grueling tales of Moving(tm) my brother to his new apartment. In doing so I finally have my own gosh dang room. My old room was -basically- mine, as he was never in there or home, but it had to stay that way in case he ever needed it. Now he never needs it! So now this room just becomes all mine! aw yeah.

Anyway, not...

Progress Report #4.....5? | 8/23/2024

Weird title, I know.

I didn't get much done this week either, quite frankly-- I had to deal with family visiting and all the sort. It's been a stressful week!!!
Y'know, when I made the 6 week plan, I forgot what month was coming up-- August. The month where a bunch of things happen irl and I have no control over them lol.

I may h...

10 Years

10 Years baby!! I did not expect this to be going on for 1 year let alone 10 LMAO. But something about this game keeps bringing me back. I mean, I wouldn't be making it if I wasn't having fun with it!

This won't be a progress report post as I've done nothing of note this week. I guess the vacation I expected to have last week came a little...

Progress Report #4 | 8/8/2024

hey.... I keep saying it every week, but damn it's friday again, I guess? What week is this? 4? I'm pretty sure this is 4. I said I might have taken a break this week due to vacation stuff, but that actually didn't happen because we got completely rained out by a hurricane lol. So, this week will be like any other week, I suppose...

Well, ...

Progress Report #3 | 8/2/2024

ANOTHER WEEK? WHAT....

Gonna be honest... I was DEAD this week. I didn't get much done at all.
I've been a tired boi and I kinda needed the rest...
But I guess a milestone for me is that I finished all the maps for this segment!
Visually, that is. I did not finish eventing.
