Entropic Float

  BIG NEWS FIRST- “Not Your Cherry Sundae” by Renfield Future has finally released! The ability to create this song by the in-universe band was made possible with a Kickstarter stretch goal, which covered the costs of composition and recording- But it took a bit longer for me to be able to order the cover image commission. It’s well worth the wait. Rex Rosario’s vocals and Soyokaze’s art make for a wonderful music video! Moving along to the actual development update, let’s look at the previous update’s goals. Complete at least 3 more backgrounds: Done! Again, I’ll share one below. Write at least 6 more standard conversations: Well, I was able to write two of them- Not a big enough advancement to share a progress bar this time. Create the assets for one Character Zone: Done! Everything’s created for Jane’s zone (and the puzzles are function-checked), the other step is to digitize those assets and implement the minigame. One down! If you’re wondering why I fell so short on that conv...

 Hello! A few days later than I said I’d update again- Happy Halloween! I delayed the update so that I could be truly on theme when sharing this lovely piece of art from the ever-amazing Soyokaze! Twelve members of the EF2 Cast are waiting in the candy bucket- Pick out your favorite Halloween costume of the bunch!! So, moving forward- How about those goals from last time? Complete at least 5 more backgrounds - Done! I’ll share one of these below~ Get the conversation progress number up to 40/590 - We’re at 39/590 which I think is close enough to call it a success. Finish up the three Objekts I currently have in the WIP files folder - Done! The next update will be on Sunday 11/16, just a smidge over two weeks from the update today. So, let’s go over the goals for this period! Complete at least 3 more backgrounds Write at least 6 more standard conversations- This being conversations only between Ame and the character, not involving another ally, so they only increment the counter by ...

 Hi everybody! I already made a small update announcing the release of our Spooktober project, The Haunting Of Kurumi Mori, but this is our first real update back from the hiatus! As mentioned, I was still working on the game when I could, but I was also very busy. So, what got done? Writing! I mostly just squeezed in writing character conversations when I got the chance. Keeping in mind that the number increments twice for conversations involving multiple characters- We're still 19 steps closer to having a detailed and involved world here! I also have  made progress on drawing backgrounds, but not anything I can quantify yet- I mostly worked on lining sketches, rather than coloring and rendering, so while a fair few backgrounds are closer to finished, no more of them are  finished than before. So, with that out of the way, let's set some actual goals for the rest of October! My next devlog will be on 10/25 (And will be the first one posted to kickstarter since the hiatus...

The Haunting Of Kurumi Mori Is Now Available! This is an entry to the Spooktober 2025 Visual Novel Jam- Made by myself and an amazing team (PrinxeCatqueer, TollingBells, and Chaotic_ERROR with additional beta testing by Quartoch!) entirely within the month of September! And oh boy, am I ever pleased with the result. It might not be one of those games that you wonder 'how was this made for a gamejam', but I'm proud of how our hard work came together to create this lovely little side-game set in the Entropic Float universe. It's a standalone story, but there's a subtle cameo-mention of a character you know and love, and this game will introduce you to a couple of characters whose stories will eventually intersect with that of our heroes. Now, as for Entropic Float 2- I'll admit it was a smart, if painful, move for me to take this hiatus from sharing updates. My summer was stressful in a hundred different ways, and I genuinely don't think I could have even mana...

  Hello everybody! Welcome to the 5/31 update, the second May update, the final update before the update hiatus begins! And what have I accomplished since the first May update? Not a whole lot, honestly! Attending a large convention is fun but exhausting (Got a little con plague, too), so almost all of the energy I had left went toward working on commissions from etsy. No part of the Kickstarter budget included wages for my time working on the game, so unfortunately, I must still prioritize other work! Even so, ‘not a whole lot’ isn’t the same as ‘nothing at all’! Let’s look at last update’s goals: Finish at least 3 of those Area 4 Backgrounds: This one didn’t happen. All the time I’ve been able to spend at my desk has gone into commissions this period. Sketch some subprimary backgrounds for the areas already done: This one, however, did happen! I sketched all those subprimary backgrounds and even one of the backgrounds for Area 5. The wonders of the sketches being possible anywher...

  Hello everybody! That’s right, it’s time for the first May Update! Let’s jump right in with last update’s goals: Sketch all 7 primary backgrounds left for Area 4: Done! They’re alllll sketched. Yay! Add planned objekts into Area 3: Done! Write Objekt Reactions for Munya and Sharma in Area 4: Done! Maybe actually get those progress bars sorted out?: Done! And, here, let’s take a look at those right away! Character Conversations: 10/590. These are the conversations between Ame, his allies, and other characters as experienced when choosing the dialogue option ‘Let’s Talk’. 590 may seem like a big number, but the ally conversations are counted twice- A convo between Ame, Bea, and Greta is listed once in Bea’s list and once in Greta’s list, it was just easier for tracking purposes to count them in both places than to weed out the duplicates. Zones: 0/44. I haven’t made any strides in this regard yet. There are twenty-two zones total, each with separate tasks for the visual assets and...
