Feel free to check it out, and to put it to your wishlist. Here's the link: Rebels Chapter 3 Description will still change, especially the list of all the artists, and the number of CGs. I have put the release date to February and will do my utmost to keep it this way. I'm looking forward to it, and hope you are too. =) As for the status: I'm pretty far already, there are just two scenes left. The problem is that these two scenes are a big chunk, and they consume a lot of time. As always, here's what I have so |
| Chapter 3: DevLog#5 | 2022-10-02 | Hello Rebels! I hope you are all in good health! I'm here to bring some update on the progress! Things have been a bit slow in the past few weeks, but I'm trying my best to keep it up. Here is a rough indication of where I'm at: I have to admit, that I've been struggling a bit with the two encircled scenes. I hope I can progress more efficiently in the coming weeks. Here's what I have so far: Updated NEW asset count for this chapter: - BG: 7 - CG: 14 - Chara: 15 - Creature: 1 - Items: 5 - Music: 6 There was mostly work done for CG's and for new characters. By the way, I just realized that there are currently 46 unique characters in the story. |
| Chapter 3: DevLog#4 | 2022-08-30 | Hello Rebels! Hope everyone is doing fine in these times. Things are going fairly well at the moment. Here is a rough indication of where I'm at: As you can see, the progress is steady. I hope I'm able to keep this up. Here's what I have so far: Updated NEW asset count for this chapter: - BG: 7 - CG: 11 - Chara: 9 - Creature: 1 - Items: 5 - Music: 6 I'm happy to say that the number of assets is growing steadily as well. At the beginning, I said that this is going to be a shorter chapter, and that I'm therefor not sure whether to merge Chapter 3 with Chapter 4 for more content. But now, being at this stage with a better overview of the amount |
| Chapter 3: DevLog#3 | 2022-08-01 | Hello Rebels! I'm here to bring some update on the progress. Lately, things have gone pretty smooth, and I was able to progress fairly well. Here is a rough indication of where I'm at: I've fully completed three groups of events, which were kinda big. Now I'm starting to work on the next one. I caught myself having more fun than usual with the progress, and it was fascinating to see how more and more content came into play, that were never part of the plan. Here's what I have so far: Updated NEW asset count for this chapter: - BG: 6 - CG: 9 - Chara: 6 - Creature: 1 - Items: 4 - Music: 4 Not that much more assets than from the previous update, |
| Chapter 3: DevLog#2 | 2022-07-07 | Hello Rebels! Quick update on the progress! I'm still working on the 2nd scene of the game, which is quite a big scene. It's about the Elven Village in the forest, the places within, some action, more lore and new characters. There will also be a major flashback scene about Tis-neva's past. Here's what I have so far: Updated NEW asset count for this chapter: - BG: 6 - CG: 7 - Chara: 5 - Creature: 1 - Items: 4 - Music: 4 Having all these new BGs of the village is a huge milestone and enables me to do all the possible events in the village faster. If you haven't already, I hope you were able to grab a copy of the previous chapters during the Su |
| Chapter 3: DevLog#1 | 2022-06-07 | Hello Rebels! I'm back with the first DevLog for the next Chapter! I hope you are all doing great and that you were happy with Chapter 2. Here is a rough outline of what comes next: Here you can see the next events that will be told in the next Chapter. Although, there will be more events in-between that I haven't decided yet. According to my story, Chapter 3 is rather a short chapter. So, maybe I'll include Chapter 4 into the game, I'm not sure yet. It depends on how much more content I come up with for Chapter 3. If possible, I don't want to decrease the play-time compared to the previous chapters. Also, as indicated in the picture with a g |
| Achievements | 2022-04-24 | Hello Rebels! Hope everyone is doing okay in these tiring times. There are now 17 easily obtainable achievements added to the game. Feel free to check them out! They have been tested with both windows and mac. I made them with the help of Greenworks, which is the only way it works with, as far as I know. I have some mixed feedback of whether a pop-up is displayed while unlocking an achievement or not on windows. Regardless, the achievement is obtained, even if there is no pop-up. With this done, I can finally continue to work on Chapter 3. I will keep you updated with DevLogs, as I did before, and I will try to be more active on social medias |
| Proofreading | 2022-03-26 | Just a quick update, everyone! I have received the revised text from my professional editor. The corrections have been implemented into the Visual Novel and are now live. With this, most of the errors I had before should be gone. Now that this is done, I can concentrate on adding achievements. Thanks for all your support! I hope you enjoy the contents. meta.baron |
| State of the Game | 2022-03-23 | Chapter 2 is finally out ːsteamhappyː Feel free to check it out. As I have announced already: For the proofreading, only a third of the game has been done and edited to date. The rest is yet to come, hopefully on Friday. I will update the corrections immediately when I receive them. Until then, please don't be too harsh with the criticism if you find grammatical errors. Also, for anyone interested, tomorrow I will upload the bundle that includes both of the chapters for a discount. I hope you're happy with the story and the game. Best wishes to everyone. meta.baron |
