Weekly Update #3

To be perfectly honest I've made little progress this last week. After I hit a creative block I started playing other things for a few days. Plus my laptop mouse crapped out on me and I only just replaced it today.

A friend helped me come up with a couple good ideas for the first dungeon and I've started mapping it out, but again, I hate mapping. And it's even worse for me figuring out a layout of this dungeon. It's not a terribly complicated puzzle, but I just suck horribly at creating dungeons. The dungeon is inspired by a classic RPG handheld game series, and so far I've got 50% of it mapped out.

I also ironed out a couple more bugs and polished a few more things on cutscene scripts and other quest related things. I added a simple Journal system to keep track on the progress of all of the main and side quests, and point you in the right direction if you get stuck or just haven't worked on that quest in a while. I also encountered my new weapon bug a little sooner that I thought I would, and the only solution I have at the moment is to forcibly disarm the weapon if it's equipped, so it doesn't screw up your stats. And right now it works, so I'm gonna leave it alone.

I will try my best to finish up this first dungeon and mostly polish off Area 1, and maybe get started mapping Area 2 by my next update.
