  My game was released a week ago, but I figured that since the soundtrack is technically Midi, why not render it out using a high quality soundfont and upload it for others to listen to. The game's out... Continue reading

  The polishing phase continues apace. It's taking a lot longer than I expected, but I should "hopefully" be out of the pre-alpha stage sometime next week and into the alpha stage. I've fixed a lot of p... Continue reading

  The polishing phase continues. I've tested the game, made a list, fixed everything on it, tested it again, made another list, fixed everything on it, and now I'm in the process of testing it again. An... Continue reading

  I've finally entered the polishing phase of the game development process. What this entails is testing, making notes, fixing, then rinsing and repeating. I ended up with nearly 40 items to fix or chan... Continue reading

  I feel like I've gotten nothing done this week, but that's only because I've been working on a bunch of the smaller stuff. For example, last week I showed an animated screenshot of some burning hay in... Continue reading

  This week I fixed a few minor problems which I encountered during some of my testing, such as a missing sound effect here, or no grab animation there. I also improved a bit of the artwork I originally... Continue reading

  This week I spent all of my time coding in responses for everything I drew in the rooms last week. Those are responses for left clicking, right clicking, and using an inventory item. Because for some... Continue reading

  This week has been all about improving the artwork for the rooms. I've mostly been adding random junk, shadows, and a foreground. But occasionally I'd change something I'd already drawn or add some te... Continue reading

  This week I finished off the introduction. Now three characters sit on the sofa, instead of standing awkwardly in front of it. I also finished the endings. They were mostly completed already, but I ha... Continue reading

  So, as I said last week. I wouldn't have much time to work on my game this week, and that's been true. That being said, I did give the fonts another pass, made and implemented an animation for the sca... Continue reading

  This week I've been working on the main menu and the credits screen, as well as the game's music. Not to mention a few odds and ends, such as the microwave humming then dinging after you've put someth... Continue reading

  Just before coming back from holiday, I got sick. That mixed with the heatwave has meant that I haven't made a whole lot of progress this week. That being said. I did work on the ending cutscenes. The... Continue reading

  This week I worked on act 2, polishing up a lot of the cosmetic details such as everything getting darker when the power goes out. And what's an indie horror game without random scraps of paper that y... Continue reading

  This week I finished off the inventory icons, added lip syncing to all of the characters (although there won't be voice acting), and sorted out the majority of the room interactions. I also finished o... Continue reading

  Time for an update. I've been working on the scripting for the bedroom and the kitchen, so characters walk towards the things they interact with, say things when you look at something, that sort of st... Continue reading
