Greetings! Let's talk about where Isle of Power is now that fall is turning to winter - or at least should be...

Since Summer: 

"OrangeGal" (they have names. I'm just not ready, yet) has won the polls for Prototype Character. You will be playing as OrangeGal during the prototype. She is a determined and energetic person, but is taking on quite a burden. Will power and strength help her carry it?

As such - I've been focusing on her and "RedGuy"'s content. When I can, all four Chosen's scenes get finished so I can say they have substantial progress. They include choices that I hope add some amount of expression for how players want to navigate their journey.

Main quest content and hookup was also done, although I'd be scared to attempt to play it in Ren'Py right now.

A lot of work was on combat and everything surrounding combat. Status effects, abilities, and combat mechanics were all the focus, and outside of the presentation of combat - which is a big challenge for me in Ren'Py - combat with creatures and opponents inches closer to functionality.

Work on Areas was also a big deal - I had a lot of crappy starts with areas, but they're ready to be built out, now. There are a LOT of areas in the full game, so my focus will be on the areas available for the prototype so you can enjoy them during the first few steps of the main quest.

Plans for Winter Development:

Push to Prototype, Push toPrototype, Push to Prototype. I want to work on paper illustrations, scenes, main quest stuff. I'd like to work on the music for this game as well, but my musical objectives have expanded quite a bit just because of experimentation. Hey, if you don't like my games but like my music? Donate via the button on my soundcloud!

By the end of winter (early march imo), I'd like to see a lot of progress, but OHYAD might butt in a lot of time. I can also sense my need to hit the brakes and take better care of myself in light of not earning much money, which means I may need a GITAJERB and take a lot of personal time. Let's hope I can continue pushing.
