EF2 April Update 2: Housekeeping Accomplished!

Hello again! It’s time now for the second April update! We can get started right away with last update’s goals~


  • Finally generate progress bars to use in future updates: Didn’t happen! I knew I’d be away from home for a chunk of this update, and thought this line item would work well for that. Turns out I needed a lot more info from my main machine and paper notes than I realized. Instead, I used that time to draw some refs for the remaining CGss Shoii is working on.

  • Check in with any Kickstarter backer commissions left in the pipe: Done! Still working on figuring out the cameo backer tier with those individuals, but for all remaining commissions I either completed them or reached out for more information.

  • Draw a cute EF doodle for Easter: Done! This was posted to socials, but I’ll also include it in this update after this list!

  • Make a fun little character themes video for the cast of the Beloved Ghost DLC: Also done and posted to socials! This one will go at the end of the update.

  • Add Objekt Reactions for Renfield, Maude, and Prim in Area 3: Done! In fact, I also jumped ahead and put in the reactions for Greta in Area 4 too.



To elaborate a bit more on the progress bars- I’ve determined which numeral metrics to count for each category, to be able to share X out of Y progress, but it turns out I need to dive back into what I’ve coded so far along with my paper notes to actually count up those metrics. Just a data entry task that will at some point get done!


May’s updates will come on the 17th and the 31st - This has an extra weekend between now and the next update again, but since I’ll be attending Anime Boston on the 24th, I’d rather update on the 3rd and 5th Saturdays than the 2nd and 4th. So, what are the goals I’ll be tackling for this upcoming month?


For the next 3 week period:

  • Sketch all 7 primary backgrounds left for Area 4

  • Add planned objekts into Area 3

  • Write Objekt Reactions for Munya and Sharma in Area 4

  • Maybe actually get those progress bars sorted out?


And for what’s left of May: (Considering that I have work and Anime Boston going on between the two updates)

  • Finish at least 3 of those Area 4 Backgrounds

  • Sketch some subprimary backgrounds for the areas already done (There are still locations locked behind puzzles as far back as Area 1 that need drawing!)


Taking it a little easy in the latter portion of the month, but big plans for the start! And who knows, maybe the same thing will happen as this month, and I’ll have all the stretch goals done by the first update? Anything can happen! Thank you, as always, for reading. See you soon!

Entropic Float 2 December Update #1: Backgrounds!

  Hello everybody! It’s midway through December- That means it’s update time! With everything going on this month, I did set smaller goals, with plans to catch up in January if those still fell short. So far this month… Draw the remaining backgrounds necessary for area 4 - Done! Sharing one of those below~ Draw characters for the Area 4 backgrounds - Partially complete! I’ve sketched them into their positions, but have yet to finish them fully. So, mostly on track! Since I did get started on the characters, I’ll carry that goal into the rest of the month, though I’m also still working on making gifts for the people in my life, and completing holiday season etsy orders for others! This is the usual stuff of December, and regular work has also been busier this year than it usually is this month (as mentioned last update) so I’m doing my best. If only gamedev paid the bills… EF2 might be done by now if I could afford to focus only on it! This period’s backgrounds are, as mentioned bef...

May Update: Midnight's Requiem Complete Edition, Backer Rewards, and EF2 Progress!!

  Leading with the most exciting part! Remember when we hit the stretch goal to have Stephanie's VA record the full version of Midnight's Requiem, with the lyrics that Prinxe wrote? Well, I've finally uploaded the result for your listening pleasure! Of course, the Renfield Future track will be up next, but I have a bit more to do on that one before I can share it, so enjoy Stephanie's wonderful vocals for the time being! Now, Rewards! The physical rewards are IN PRODUCTION right now, at the manufacturer~ They're on the way! If you missed out on any, there are a limited number of extras of each new design coming my way. Digital Rewards meanwhile- I've finished commissions for backers who are also receiving physical rewards. If you got digital rewards only, your art is still on the way! I took a small step back from working on rewards after getting the manufacturing order in, to focus on the game itself for some time, but it shouldn't be too long until you s...

EF2 December Update 2: Happy New Year!

  First off- I delayed this update by a couple days so that I could post on New Year’s Eve! Here’s a themed doodle of Bea for the occasion! 2025 has been a chaotic and challenging year, for a whole lot of reasons, so I’m happy to welcome 2026 and hope that it’s a little bit kinder to me and to the development process of Entropic Float 2. I feel it’s promising on that front though! Let’s take a look back at this month’s goals, as much as I was able to fit them around the holidays. Draw characters for the Area 4 backgrounds: This is done! Draw and implement Objekts for Area 4: They’re drawn, and they’re partially implemented! Make the assets for another character zone: I didn’t get to this one, I did a bit too much crafting this month to have the juice left for it, but January should be different~ So, I got a fair bit done! The Objekt implementation is a matter of- They’re implemented for the inventory, but not entirely in the environments, because I failed to remember that none of t...
