It would be an unrepairable disaster for me to have wasted 3 years of my life and fail miserably. Besides career suicide, letting down the entire fanbase and being ridiculed to my friends and family... the inner devastation would be unbearable. So yeah, I have a lot riding in this and that's why I work so hard. Delays also ruin my creative momentum so I have to fight against that as well.<br /><br />So, despite not having seen my work in the game for almost an entire year (except for SG Black and 3-4 new areas), I keep working on anything I can: new life bars, new levels, Cyclops, SG Red, new NPCs, power-ups... if you check the previous posts, you will understand that there is a lot of art ready but not in the game yet. And I keep working sometimes based on faith, without feedback from anyone but myself, because it's the only thing I can do to keep the progress going. Doing art while not letting negative things drag you down or without knowing if they actually work in the game is a hard task. Sometime I have to rework on something, months after I thought I was done with it. For example, I have revamped Voms' and Rudy's runcycle and some other animations (like Voms' kneeling pose) 2 months ago. I did that because I wasn't happy with how they looked or because they needed corrections (Voms kneeling had to accommodate the new sub-weapons ability) but I still have no clue if they look good in the game. I can only imagine how they would look.<br /><br />Well, my work can't be seen unless Titan programs it, so there's that. In any case, I made a new blog-post, showing some of the new things that we might see in the next beta. It's not the same as a new beta but it's the best thing I can show at this point. And like everyone else, I cant wait to see these things in the game and play with a super-powered Voms!Veinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07459998099686973145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023652697490633104.post-67652763900708491862016-12-01T00:41:01.535-05:002016-12-01T00:41:01.535-05:00Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh by the comment abou...Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh by the comment about hiding things behind a patreon wall. I didn't mean that to come off in such a rude manner. I can only imagine what it's like having things come apart as the many setbacks you've had happen to you so far. It must be rough.<br /><br />I'm a patient person and well, again, I realize games take time. The thing is, even a small game takes time. Some of the RPG maker games out there for example have been worked on for years and it practically has a pre built engine to work with. I know that games, even small ones take time, but it's vital that you communicate with the people supporting you, even if you aren't getting money from us, we're still potential customers.<br /><br />When I see no post in over a month, I start to get worried wondering if something has stalled development or if it's going to turn into vaporware and disappear. The people that give money to support you feel doubly so I imagine, but that's just my thoughts on that. Even if it's bad news, news is news. The worst thing you can do is go without saying anything.<br /><br />I'm sorry if I'm sounding preachy, I don't mean to be. I'm just letting you know that we also have a bit of worry on our minds that you guys might just call it quits. That happens to a lot of devs once they start running into the road blocks you guys have done and sticking through it has been you guys strong point through the entire ordeal.<br /><br />In any case, I hope things go better for you in the future. I'm sure you guys will get it sorted out eventually. Just keep your heads up and carry on. Godspeed, guys.The Kinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720909500467124998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023652697490633104.post-68613500096911964572016-11-30T17:59:21.688-05:002016-11-30T17:59:21.688-05:00I agree with you 100%

I still don't feel much better but I am a bit hopeful. Yeah I talk in riddles. <br /><br />I don't like that this project is so far behind. Even with my calculations it won't finish before summer 2017 and this hurts me. And I have really worked my ass off. Releasing only 1 beta in 2016 seriously sucks and hurts the project itself.<br /><br />We made preparations to change all that from January and deliver more frequent updates. I always get edgy when the month is about to end because I know we need at least 1 blog-post per month. Titan is close to releasing a new beta but I told him that I will make a post before November ends, even if he doesn't make it in time. <br /><br />Other than that, no, we are not favoring Patreon over the blog regarding updates. The last 2 updates were done at the same time in both sites.Veinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07459998099686973145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023652697490633104.post-40265626538867021622016-11-30T13:46:22.401-05:002016-11-30T13:46:22.401-05:00It's been over a month since the last update. ...It's been over a month since the last update. A new update, even if it is just saying stuff is still being worked on would be nice. I'd hate to see you guys start hiding updates behind patreon walls. That would serve to just alienate those of us that follow the blog and try to keep up with the game.<br /><br />Have a good one, and thanks for your time.The Kinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720909500467124998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023652697490633104.post-30575943122177557622016-11-29T21:13:58.144-05:002016-11-29T21:13:58.144-05:00why you say that?

Voms needs to collect it in order to use the sub weapons and we want him to be able to use it only once ever 3 to 5 screens. Also, some mogi may drop Energy as well when they get defeated. <br /><br />So I hope it would be a nice addition.Veinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07459998099686973145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023652697490633104.post-82624875973706954672016-11-25T15:01:12.884-05:002016-11-25T15:01:12.884-05:00That really seems nice! :D I wonder if Voms won...That really seems nice! :D I wonder if Voms won't be a bit op with ranged weapons though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023652697490633104.post-21711870047933285162016-11-25T10:14:02.906-05:002016-11-25T10:14:02.906-05:00Yeah... sorry but I'm moody lately.
