Hey, Wizards!

Shady Character One here!

I was planning on writing this blog eventually, but since Shady Two already touched the changes in design of girls in the previous devblog, I though I might as well tell you about their character development a bit.
Right off the bat, we decided that we will need eight primary girls for the g...

Hey, Wizards!
It's Shady Character... Two. Shocker, I know!
So today I decided to chime in and talk a bit about our girls and the way they change throughout the process of game development. I am predominantly a character artist, but before diving into the game, I had never worked on sprites. Is this important? Well, yes, it is, because be...

Sometimes you get stumped on very strange things, and sometimes those issue get resolved in very beneficial ways. This one issue was bothering me for some time now, but it was only last week that I finally decided that in needs to be tackled.

Sketches in the game

Hey, Wizards!

I got a question for you all today. I was thinking on putting artwork sketches into the game in places where complete artworks will be eventually. What do you think?

Hey, Wizards!

Shady Character One here!

So, I have finally properly returned to working on the game this week. A lot of bugs found in the game by players did help to jolt me into consciousness. God, Ciara's storyline was buggy. The town store was hit by bug gremlins too. Well, that will all be fixed by the next release (some of it al...

Hey, Wizards!

Shady Character One here!

It feels that the last week got deleted from time and space, but I slowly crawled out of the holiday food coma and got back to development. Slowly for now, since Shady Two is still recovering and cannot really draw much, so I try not to get ahead, so there would be less pressure on her to try a...

Year's End Devblog

Hey, Wizards!

Shady Character One here!

So, the year is coming to an end, and it is as good a time as any to think back on the results of our work here. It has been almost a year since we started working on this project proper. Ten months to be precise. I didn't know how to code back then, and Shady Two had no experience drawing sp...

Hey, Wizards!

Shady Character One here!

So, now that the first major addition to the game is done and we had a bit of a "bugfix and chill" time, I think it is time to talk what's next in our plans.

Most important is the population of the newly opened month of November. Right now it barely has any dedicated events, which I plan ...

Hey, Wizards!

Since today is the Major Update day, I don't really want to go into technical details in this blog entry, so instead I would like to talk about the world-building for a bit. I am a bit of a world-building fanatic, but not in a way that I like to come up with things, facts, events or places that...

Hey, Wizards!

Since the major update is just a week away that's what I wanted to talk to you all about. Not just the update, but general troubles that I faced when coming up with the update strategy for the game.
