February Progress Report

The month is nearly over so it's time for your regularly irregular progress update.

First off, I haven't had a SINGLE bug report for the latest demo, so there's no plans to do any patches or small updates at the moment  I already know what areas I plan on further refining for the next update though.  Icons and important logs.

Icons needed me to finalize what the statuses and skills/armor would be first, so I could then make exactly what I needed.  And with all of that stuff sorted out now, they are the top of my to do list.  It'll be a pretty big task to update everything but it'll make the gameplay experience way better for everyone. To partner with that I'll be adding more books to the game.  In specific the Hunter's Guide set of books which will explain what certain icons mean, and give various tips for how to defeat enemies.

In terms of story content I've been working on Chapter 2: The Witch and the Wolf that Howls my Name.  It's currently about 90% complete which is pretty great.  There's still a few more assets and tweaks to be made but it's fully playable in it's current stage.  Once that's done I'll be moving on to Chapter 1: Prologue - The Girl in the Red Hood.  I don't EXPECT both chapters to be finished in time for the next planned update (probably April.) But ya never know.  It's a bit far away to be making any predictions.  For now I'll leave you with some images from the new content to give you some stuff to think about.

Again this content is NOT finished yet. It's just barely functional.  But it's in a good place to be done with soon.  I'm hoping to also update the games opening movie/credits sequence to feature the full roster of voice actors (even if they won't yet appear.  Though fingers crossed Scarecrow and Cheshire will have voicing added in by April!).  But yeah so there's still quite a bit to do.  I'll be spending March also working on Chapter 1 as mentioned above.  Either way where last update was very mechanically focused, the next one is really going to be very narrative focused.  So I wouldn't expect much in terms of new combat or events.  Just a lot of context and flavor.

As always thanks so much for all of your continued support.  I hope you look forward to what lies ahead!
