If you heard that, you've got some good ears, because it's a status update indeed! :D
Picture hunting is becoming the bane of my existance, but I think I am finally done for this part of the game (give or take a few rooms, maybe). The game has a new bad end (since I know you like them so much! ;D), and I'd say I have done about 50% of this second part of the quest.
I have added a lot of possible ways to solve this part of the quest, and I have decided to not allow the players to fail (except for the bad end, of course). This is for a number of reasons: the previous part of the quest can be failed (although it is really hard to do so), so I didn't want to push things, it's easier for me to code, it gives the players a relatively "safe" environment to explore, so that having multiple solutions available is fun and isn't hampered by the fear of making an error and screwing everything, pushing people onto the paths they already know to work. Also, it's part of the main quest, so I probably I shouldn't make it too hard to progress here.
There will still be a little optional event to this part of the quest, and I'll have players try to solve a little puzzle I came up with, so I should cover all the possible angles, with this one!
I am also getting close to needing some personal testing of my own, to see if all I have added so far is playable, or if it's a horrible pile of bugs waiting to jump at me and skin me alive (bug hunting can wield some hilarious results, so it is fun, in a way).
So, I did a decent amount of work on the game, but it's not really too exciting, yet. Maybe next week I'll have something more interesting for you. ;)
A blog about conquering the world... Or my adult MC-themed videogames, I can't remember right now.
