Hello everyone !
I figured I would take a moment to talk about the game so far, and my experience in devloping it.
Firstly, I want to thank you all for your great reception, comments and donations. I appreciate all of it. I have a ton of ambition for this project, but know that your contributions are adding more fuel to the fire.
Secondly, I wanted to briefly mention that this game is not created in Renpy. To those of you familiar with renpy, it has a ton of usefool tools for devs to quickly get from prototyping to a final product. For me however, I am using Gamemaker. My reasoning is simple, I want to have the creative freedom to create my game how I want it. This unfortunately makes it longer for me to code basic architecture such as Loading and Saving the game, but it allows me to create those features how I want them.
So please keep this in mind when you are thinking of ideas for my game.
On that note, a lot of you are sending me some great ideas and expectations for this project. Know that I have some wild ideas as well that I want to see come true. I really encourage this and would like to see more of you sending me what you think about the game, or what you would like to see. So please message me on here, or email me at DarkDemarley@gmail.com
I also wanted to briefly mention that I"m aware of a lot of the bugs so far in the game The grammar mistakes, Music looping into itself and strange graphical glitches that appear. All of these have been tracked and should be fixed up for next release tonight. If you happen to se a bug though, or something that you think should be worked on, please send me a message for that as well.
Lastly, I just wanted to briefly talk to the people who messaged me about Patreon. I have now created my patreon page, and it is live. Thank you for your interest in donating and know that you can do so here : Dark Demarley is creating Persona H : The Midnight Channel | Patreon
All donations go towards the progress of this game, be it food to keep me going, or assets towards my tablet and computer hardware.
And once again, thank you all for your interest in this project. Know that I too am excited for this, and I mostly got inspried to work on it since it was a game that I wanted to play ! So just know, that I"m also playing this game because I think it needs to be made !
