EF2 April Update 1: Good Progress, But A Short Update!

Hello everybody! It’s update time! A short one for our mid-month update today because I’m having a bit of a weird eye problem and thus trying to limit my screentime a bit. How’d I do on the list?

Write another 5 conversations: Wrote 3.5 more
Finish the assets for another character zone: Done! I made the assets for Munya’s zone and got started on another.
Implement a character zone: Not done, but started!

I did begin the process of implementing a character zone, but then the aforementioned limiting of screentime came into the picture, so I wasn’t able to finish yet- I’ve not encountered any roadblocks in the actual process though, no problems coding it in so far! I instead spent some extra time on making zone assets, since all but two characters have non-digital artstyles for those, so I completed Munya’s and was able to begin on Syoko’s.

As for the conversation writing, I just didn’t squeeze out enough time during the weekdays with convention prep and recovery in the mix. I’ll just add that onto the next period’s goals~

Digitize a character zone (not necessarily implement)
Finish implementing Greta zone
Write an additional 7 conversations
Finish some previously sketched CGs

That’s all I’ve got for now! No visuals this update either, sorry about the truncated check-in, I’ll talk to you again on 4/26 and thank you, as always, for reading!

Entropic Float Biweekly Update #12

Time for Update Twelve. The art this week was commissioned from Niina on skeb! Not the most relevant image this time, since Peri doesn't actually appear in any of the Rashmi routes... But she's adorable, so don't hold it against me, okay? You also shouldn't hold it against me because, for all but the first two days after my previous update, I've had covid. Omicron's infectivity really is off the charts, and I'm a fragile person, so of course I had loads of symptoms. Nothing serious in the end, thanks to my triple vaccine, and my brainfog's cleared up over the past few days, so I still have some progress to share! Writing: 48/54 segments... That's right, despite spending most of my time sick, working from home during moments of clarity and playing video games during moments of utter fog... I actually wrote the entire Rashmi Noon Route. A big chunk of that was immediately following the last update, but I still doubled my goal of three segments... S...

Entropic Float 2: Character Reveal and Kickstarter Date!

Entropic Float 2... Characters! They're here! The video above shares some songs to help you get the feel on their personalities- And their profiles are available too! I've also been hard at work to get the demo ready before the Kickstarter, which I've decided to launch on 11/11/2023 ! Below, you can see the first talksprite for good ol' Kanatsune Ame. To temper expectations a bit- The demo will only cover the beginning of the game. The 'exposition loop', if you will. Several of these characters won't be appearing yet, and certain loop-related features will, well, not exist because there is no second loop to implement them on. It should, however, give you an idea of what the story's going to be, and how the main point-and-click gameplay will work. Just enough of a taster to let you know that EF2 is worth getting made! And I mean... Even if the Kickstarter fails, I'll make it anyway. It just might take me a good bit longer, and might miss out on some...

EF2 May Update 2: Farewell For Now!

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...
