Hi there, its me, Xer. The Developer of Lentera VN-RPG Game
Before proceeding, I apologize of my broken English. I am not asking my friend to rephrase my words, so all of you know deepdown inside of my heart
It's been a great year for 2023, I am glad that we can constantly update the game even with some delayed updates.
I am really grateful that we have been trough all of this with joy and sorrow, and all of your supports
For that, i really thankful to all of you, and my friends who helped me develop the game
Lentera first build is actually from 2020, i was inspired by a game called 'Taven of Spear' by Caro back then
He and his game creation is the reason why i felt motivated to make this game,
But in 2021. I stopped this game project for a while. Because of being critized and insulted the bad quality of my arts. (Just take a look of older builds)
I am really down at that time, upset, and keep telling myself that im nothing.
I quitted, and my former friends who work for the first build of this game quit as well. leaving me all alone.
I tried to improve my art, by learning self-taught from internet, and savings to buy a better laptop/device and drawing tablet.
Years after. I tried to gain trust from my friends again this time it will work, but i realized that i cannot get them back again.
So I decided to former a new team again, and I am glad the effort I did for this game achieve me something in this year.
Which is consistency. And I am really proud of it.
But as the time goes, The game feature is going to be more complex and complex. And I, as a programmer, have to realize that Ren'py is not the answer to make an RPG Game.
It has so many limitations, and so many potentially bug appears. Actually We can fix this, but to do that, it must be started from the ground again, which if doing that means creating a new game with more structured programming base.
Imaginations have no limit, but at the same time you must be using proper engine to achieve what you wanted. And I believe that I can do that, but I am afraid it will only be abandoned (Because im sole programer and artist), moreover of my own irl stuffs
So by February 2024, it will be the last build of Lentera, which a complete chapter 4. And We will review again if the RPG elements should be keep or not for the future updates.
During the hiatus of Lentera game, I will be working on a new Game called Accea as Artist (not programmer).
By being the sole Artist will give me more freetime to work and also managing possibilities of my irl business in future. While also reviewing the continuation of Lentera.
About the new game, Accea is 100% RPG Game Turn-based, you play as Protagonist Tiger-shark 'Rave'. And we are using Godot Engine to build the game, and is currently progressing.
At the end, Lentera is not abandoned, but the game is being reviewed, wether if we want to continue the game as VN-RPG or remake it as Linear VN
And I love to everyone who keep supporting us, Patrons or non-Patrons
