Hi, guys! Again, here some screenshots for you . And a short informing about development process.
I've been working in the non-stop mode for a half of the month now, i'll inform you about a content that I worked on. A MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD.
With setting up some quests i had to add more maps. A few enemies and non-village NPCs are added. That caused more text for homie Lyk. One boss battle and a few secret locations are added as well. New unique quests items and goods for shopkeeper are being included. Some of the quests are being changed in the favor to expand their story routes. Now i'm working on a new girl for the affection list (well known, from a cartoon, non-Disney). Achievements and goods for blacksmiths shop in the nearest plans. Also I hired programmer again to set up one of the puzzles logic for Dark Lord's test chambers sequence (partly from the screenshot) and to do some minor tweaks. About other stuff i'll say later.
About the main subject: I pushed myself hard to make the update before the end of this month, and I kinda got myself injured.
I hate to whine about my health issues - I desided not to point out stuff like that in the future after I made you, guys, worried earlier. But this shit got too serious this time and this will affect development of the game for which you putting your resources, so I gotta inform you.
Pushing myself outside my work schedule got me a numbness of two of my fingers on the left hand. There is many symptoms of this ailment, but in my case it's a damage of the nerves due heart failure caused by the lack of movement and sleep. It's completley my fault, I had to tread my health more carefully, but I felt obligated to make it in time and my obsession didn't allowed me to stop.
So, guys, I gotta take more free time to improve my health now, before this stuff got worse. Most likely this will move release date on January.
Don't worry about my condition though, it's sounds scary, but, except the fingers, I feel fine.
Look after your health, guys, no joke.
Also thank you for your patience. My way of doing this game single handedly obviously will take a lot of time, until I hire additional hands.
I'm going to look for parallax mapper for hire soon.
I gotta get some sleep, then work on my cardio and get back to developing.
Take care, guys!
