Hello, everyone! I seem to have forgotten to add an End of Summer update beyond patreon, so here's some news:

Firstly, big shoutouts to Sonata (SonataCreates) for stepping up and accepting commission of the first five character portraits for Isle of Power - this is a big investment for me, and if you like Sonata's work and want to see more of it, you know what to do! Max already looks good, and Rowan is sure to make the ladies swoon.

Summer was a slow start, but I've really been working hard at several projects and hammering Isle of Power into shape for a Demo and Prototype. I worked a lot on screens and artwork, including 3D assets in Blender - just to explore what things should look like and how they should be presented.

All of the basic screens of the game now function, and just need hooking up to the right things and the right data in order to feel complete. I can't promise that the journal and contest screens will work, but the prototype won't need them.

As I mentioned on Patreon, I feel pretty good about the prospects of getting to a demo/prototype once the portraits come in. All that remains to make it to prototype is backgrounds to scenes, finishing the animations I've already made, and implementing the content that I wanted to have.
