Alright, sorry for the radio silence, but I am back. Had to get things sorted out and the weekly still working on it posts seemed patronizing and needed to just not for a bit for my mental health. So how has the work on Barkeeper been, basically I have spent the last few months trying to just write the entire game, since I have felt artistically dead and kept scrapping art because I wasn't happy with it. So far I have written most of the hangouts, all of the garden, a decent chunk of the park events, training with Nina has a few scenes written, gave the succubus castle a bit of dialogue(and a bit of an overhaul to give it character), and a few other things that aren't coming to mind at the moment. I will be overhauling a few of the events like the beach mini-game, the engine is not built for it and I don't have the coding knowledge to build a proper plugin for it(well RPG making unite coming out might mean it can be in the next game), so it will be more of a choose where you want to rub instead which actually makes it easier to make scenes. One thing I plan to implement along side the magician and training with Nina is being able to use the transformations from chapter 4 outside of the event(if you didn't know there was don't bother because like many things it's not implemented yet).
Alright, now onto where I have been and why I went radio silent. As many of you remember I didn't have internet or power for a month after a hurricane, so I needed a bit of a breather to not freak out any time my house creaked as it settled back onto the foundation, got a tarp put on my roof so it would stop leaking while waiting for roofers to actually be able to get around to fixing it(still needs fixed, but someone finally showed up to give a quote). Have had many things around my house fixed including drilling a new well. Overall I spent a lot of time fixing everything around me while slowly getting worn down. Right now I am feeling good, I should be able to post now and will try to keep everyone posted.
Not sure when the game will be updated but shooting for soon-ish. Will see you all in the next update.
