Estimate release dates of next games

You get customers in shops and they tell you stuff to craft you can watch youtube videos for the atelier series, even if in that case there's RPG combat.

I was undecided, but then I made my mind to have it be a dating sim + crafting/sim game. I have already many other RPGs planned, and since doing a RPG takes a lot more time than a normal game, especially testing (something like 10 to 20 times more!) I decided to take it easier with that game.

You could compromise. Maybe the previous owner of the magic shop suffered a terrible accident and Amber doesn't want to lose any customers, so she roleplays as the owner as she attempts to craft their odd requests.

Haha yes, "roleplay" with that meaning is possible

Jokes apart, I know many people here like RPGs, but IF I can do the crafting sim as I have in mind, I think could turn out fun. Besides that, honestly Amber has such a setting, characters and also writing that I think you'll love it

Today's update!
- Removed Queen Of Thieves from the list. Even if new bugs shows up, we're in the final stages now. Official release is imminent!
- Amber's Magic Shop writing to 99%, since I might need to add some texts for recipes/ingredients/etc but the story is all done.
- Love Bites music to 75% - I might ask musician to do more tracks, and/or move some tracks to other projects (since it's same musician I can do it). However it's at good point
- Never Forget Me coding to 70%. Only Lawrence's route is not coded yet, but all others are. I still need to think about the scheduler gameplay system and how to do it though!

I also think probably will need to add to the list a game I've started working on, set in Dingirra. Maybe next month though, now is still a bit early

***FIST-PUMPIN THE AIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!***

The one thing I gotta know, since ya said about QOT: Do you know of anyone who could tell me if it's possible to sync what I've done to a Kindle Fire?

[jack1974]

I'm not sure if that's possible. The format should be compatible, but copying the actual files... with a normal Android device I think should work (I have never tried myself though).

In today's update, I only bumped the Never Forget Me coding, since this week I tested all the routes. In practice if was a visual novel, could be in beta from tomorrow! I will still try to do some (optional) dating sim mechanic though.
We're halfway in September so here are my plans:
- finish Never Forget Me (this should 99% happen before end of year)
- begin working on Amber's simulation part, which will be more complex than usual, with the shop, crafting system etc. However I am 100% sure that game won't be out this year. I need a break

I have several other projects going on, got updates in the CURSED GAME, and other stuff not yet officially announced (the Dingirra game). I think I'll also see if I can make some of those famous "other games", maybe a card game or some town simulation. But those are side-projects, the main ones will still be the usual games so don't worry.
It's just that sometimes I need a break from the usual stuff, after doing 4 games in a year all with romance, simulation (and even a RPG) I want to try other stuff and do experiments

So that means next year at the latest, right? (Please tell me that's what it means; I'm dyin here, Jack! )

Also, any info on when Loren 2 will be out? The first one was what first introduced me to WW games, and my second fave only to SOTW!

[jack1974]

Well it's the first game I'll work after Never Forget Me, so while I have no clue how long the sim part will take me to code (has been a while since I did something like that!) I don't think should take more than 6 months. I'd say that before next Summer for sure!
Loren 2 still needs all the camp talk and side quests written. It's taking time but so far the result is quite good, though I really don't think will be out next year. Next year SHOULD be:
1) Amber
2) "Mysterious" Dingirra game
3) Planet Stronghold 2
4) Undead Lily
I think those 4 are the most likely to be done (first one for sure). As always, I have no clue what might happen

[BobTheMob]

4) Undead Lily

Question on that:
Does that take place in Aravorn? Another dimension? Post-apocalyptic world of some sort?

Looks awesome from what I've seen so far no matter what. (Esp. w/ the Chaos side! )
