Trembling Essence Devlog 17:🎉🎂Progress recap!🍰🥳

Hi guys and happy warm welcome to new followers, thank you guys so much for the uptick in support recently as this really makes Noah's birthday month come to a very sweet closing! 🥳🎉🎂:,D

Since there's a lot of new people here, here's a recap of how I do things over here and a look into what's going on behind the scenes from March up to now! 🎂

**Here's a TLDR since this post will be a bit long: This is a summary of what I've been working on since the end of February up until now along with Day 4 concept talk and a rough draft roadmap! I will also continue doing weekly polls due to an uptick in interest towards the game. I'll be taking breaks to catch up asks, amongst other things to avoid burning out again. Also, don't forget to rate the game ->[Here]!his really helps out the demo behind the scenes!

Mini recap:

I post small sneak peeks giving basic updates about game development on here now so if you're interested in seeing the full in-depth progress update and/or even be in the credits of the full game, join my ->[Patreon!] It serves as a monthly-tip jar / game credit perk for those that would like to support the development of the game! Here's a look into some of the art pieces I finished from Patreon polls too:

Also my->[Ko-fi] is a alternate tip jar! This helps me tremendously behind the scenes!

Game user interface updates recap:

From late February up until the end of April I mainly focused on updating the user interface because I learned a lot in a very short time and I wanted to apply what I know while it was still fresh on my mind. Right now there's new game transitions, a "Gallery" tab, "Achievements", updated interface backgrounds, amongst other things. I'm also slowly transferring what I can over to a new laptop I was gifted and getting used to a different set up. I then used old tips/donations from long ago to get a new hard drive to back up everything just in case! Again, a big thank you to those that helped! 🎉

Day 4 recap:

Now that Day 3 is finished I'm treating it as a starting ground while I continue out the rest of the game. I have about 10+ or so routes/paths I wrote a lloonggg time ago and new content I'd like to add into the concepts for Day 4 so reaching Day 5+ shouldn't take too much time to complete since much has changed!

Day 4 roadmap rough draft:

Here's a very rough look into the layout showing how Day 4 is coming along, *things are still subject to change with this design. Some stuff was done behind the scenes but progression did slow down into May. I'm still recovering from "burn-out" which is taking a lot longer for me to overcome so I appreciate all the patience I've been given.🥳:,D

Community feedback:

We're closer to it being 4 months since the [New Update] and because of the big uptick in retention towards the game I'll continue creating some polls for more community feedback! I'm interested in what people liked about the game, quality of life, choices, routes, etc. so I can take player feedback into consideration and possibly implement them into future content. All the data I've been getting from the previous weekly polls is giving me better ideas on how I want to do Day 4. so likes, comments, and shares etc. would be greatly appreciated around this time! *Expect a poll to be posted some time tomorrow! :,D

Small Q&A:

1.Will there ever be a mobile port/available for android?

I came across some good news towards this recently but I don't want to make any promises just yet! Just know I've seen these questions a bunch and it has not been forgotten! :,]

2.How long will the full game Trembling Essence be?

I was originally aiming for there to be 5 days and 3 routes in total when it comes to the full game. For right now I need to do more script planning before I can truly confirm this right now since so much has changed from my initial ideas.

In between this I'll take breaks to catch up asks, amongst other things to avoid burning out again. :,P

This is all I have to share for right now and I don't want to get too long-winded, Thank you to everyone for all the support I've been given and 🥥🌴🌺HAPPY SUMMER BREAK!!! YEEAAAA!!!! 🌅🌊>:D
