* Make the containers (barrels & crates) overgrown & broken * Add more rocks that have fallen from the walls/cave roof (if there’s one?!)

* Ruin the roof & create a hole from one of the windows

* Tone down the colors of the house a bit – paint tend to fade, after all There’s still a long way to go, but it’s a start! Here’s a list of some of the things still to be added/changed: Vilya actually started transforming the past version of the first village map (which she created long ago) into its present, ruined version! Here’s the first step: These new statues will at some point be replacing the old Grindea statues scattered across the land, for now though we continue to focus on Tai Ming (the time travel village)!

)Īs Vilya moved back to the temple, she decided to upgrade the old Grindea statue and make another version of it, featuring a sword, for the ancient village: Then we have the slimy Mossfish, and a message in a bottle! Which may or may not contain a side quest…. The purple one is a little crystal fish, and the gold one… a gold fish! The Rock fishie will instead be moved into Mount Bloom, where we feel it fits a bit better. Instead, we’re swapping the Rock Fish from pillar mountains for this one (which is supposed to be a Salmon, btw). The blue one is actually not made for Mount Bloom. So the top one is the Anglerfish, hidden deep beneath the waves where it eats unsuspecting smaller fishes, such as the Wimp! Like some of the rare fishes, it has two icons, which allows us to use a larger one when the character holds it above his/her head, and a smaller one that fits inside the inventory circle.

This week we’ve moved on to working on the time travel temple until Teddy is home and ready to patch the Mount Bloom sidequests into the game!įirst up though, something important we forgot in the mountain: fishing opportunities! Of course you’ll be able to fish in the mountain as well, so there had to be some fishes created: Oh, and speaking of enemies by the way, here’s a couple more animations for one of those you’ll encounter in this area, made by Fred this week: And obviously the houses and stuff won’t look like they do here, they are all placeholder until the actual graphic for them has been made! Now, this is just an early sketch so things may still change (such as distances, house sizes etc).

In the end, this is what our little layout ended up like! Below is the Past version, where everyone’s still in town, living their everyday life:Īnd here’s the present version, where things are in ruin, overgrown and forgotten (with roaming enemies!):

After all, this is still supposed to be somewhat temple-y, and the enemies do drop cards.! Of course, when in the present we’ve thrown in a bunch of encounters and places where you’ll have regular battles as well. Instead, the entire map becomes your puzzle, where you have to change certain things in the past to unlock a way forward in the present.

This place is more about exploration and figuring out how to solve the quests than going from point a to point b and doing something mechanically. Another week has gone by and we’re continuing work on the upcoming Time Travel temple! Teddy is back in town as well, so there should be a patch up and running before the end of the week, featuring the side quests of Mount Bloom!Īnyway, back in the office Vilya has continued working on the ruining the area around the Barracks, which have seen some neglect over the years as you time travel back and forth:Ī while ago we also started working on the second Tai Ming Zone, which will be the actual village part of the area/temple-thingy! For this one, we really want the player to think a bit more.
