Knock, knock, knockers!

Alright, so this week I think I've been working exclusively on a new area currently called the "Twisting Chasm" that'll chain a previous location to a small, isolated part of the worldmap.
This is where you'll be passing through when you pick up on the Osira's side-content after certain events leave her unavailable, which is probably what I'll be focusing on next after I've created the required maps to progress that storyline.
Not everything is done yet in Twisting Chasm, and it'll likely lead to two smaller areas accessable through the worldmap after that, one optional and one needed to proceed with the side-content.
It'll all end up with an upcoming Osira mini-scene, but it's too early to go into those details.

So with that little update, tune in again next Tuesday if you feel like it!

Halloween is getting closer, get ready in case Mummy Farah comes knocking on your door and begs for a treat!

And here we have the battlepose for Gin, Cheiftain of the Howling Moon Clan.
No matter how you resolved the situation at the temple with the Tiki Tribe, you can look forward to having Gin as an partymember at a later date, making her the second optional recruit!

As for game development,
I've finished updating all the illustrations and even found out one was currently missing before correcting that.
It was obtainable earlier, but I think I accidently removed it when I changed the interior at the Queen's Landing inn.
If you've missed it before, it'll just magically show back up again in the next release and with no additional input required by the player.
I've also created more assets to improve how cliffsides blend together with water.

That should cover everything for today, I'll see you again next week!

Legend of Queen Opala: Origin - Week 41 / 2022

Sorry in advance, this week's update is probably gonna bore you!

While being back to work, I don't have much to report yet as I'm currently in the process of going over every individual illustration you can find to correct an issue I discovered on my own.
If you wonder what that might be, it's possible you haven't even noticed your first stack of illustrations in your inventory isn't capping at 99 before giving you the second stack like it should, if you picked up a painting before hitting that total tally.
This is because paintings are counted towards the total number of illustrations, but are their seperate thing (paintings, duh) and not given to you as an illustration item.
It will be easily corrected for players, though!

I've also created some additional assets to improve dungeon/sewer based maps, but it might be hard to spot unless you know what to look for, you'll just get a sense Castle Warrengard's aqueduct suddenly feels a little bit better.

And thus, I'll be back next week with Gin's battlepose!

We've entered the time of Spoopy October and No Nut November...

As promised earlier, here comes the next emoticon and the reveal of Gin, Cheiftain of the Howling Moon Clan.
Despite giving a pretty laid-back and mellow impression, it's a position she earned through combat prowess rather than sleeping her way to the top.
That's not to say she isn't a demon in the sack too, naturally!

When it comes to game development, I've fixed a few small issues that was brought up after the latest beta.
Other than that I've mostly been taking some time off for some needed rest.
I'll likely already be back into the game shortly, though.

So with that, Tuesday will come next week as usual!
