  So as one could imagine I've been continuing to work on the game 5 days a week over the past almost three months. I've been darting around all over the project, embellishing and polishing things. I've... Continue reading
• Day 30 ~ 40 (oh how the time flies)
  May 07, 2023 by Setolyx#Bugfix, #Update

  April 17, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

• Day 23 Update
  April 12, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

• Day 18~20 Update
  April 09, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  April 04, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

• Day 16 Update
  April 03, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

• Day 15 Update
  April 02, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

• Day 14 Update (Saving's nearly done!)
  March 30, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  March 29, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  March 27, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  March 26, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  March 22, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  March 21, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  So I sort of spent all this time and work making sure I swapped over to the new input system, but I completely forgot that I added full compatibility with controllers! I still need to work out some of... Continue reading

  March 20, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

  March 19, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix

• Day 2 Mini-Update
  March 14, 2023 by Setolyx#Update, #Bugfix
