SOTW 0.8.9 - First Act Beta preview!

[Taleweaver]

I'm at the last batch of quests before the final showdown, and I really don't think will add many sidequests, or they will be very simple (kill this guy style) since is already a lot big. Even when I say this, I just added a boss mod in the dungeon I'm working on, when I see the occasion I can't resist to put some extra bonus stuff

So we can expect the beta this weekend?

Haha no sorry, I still don't have the Dingirra tileset
I am still going on in the normal plot, but even when I'm finished with all of that, I still have to start again from beginning of Act 2 to add the map and retest everything (adding probably some vendors, some small encounters, etc). I don't think at this point will be out before end of month

I'm looking forward to buying it as soon as you release it It is really looking good in the beta, can't wait to see all the finishing touches you are doing.

Well done and thank you to all involved for all the hard work that has gone into SoTW.

I almost finished the first quest of this part, and then checked what was left and...
I think I greatly underestimated the amount of work yet to be done! This whole chapter alone is HUGE. At this point end of month would be a miracle, more likely mid-July at least. Sorry but I forgot how big this part was

[Taleweaver]

Hey, you wanted it to include lots of sidequests, didn't you?

[jack1974]

Yes and it's OK! I just wanted to update the crowd of fans knocking at my door with pitchforks screaming "when the second act will be available!?"

[Taleweaver]

Speaking of which, when will the second act be available?

Now?

Now?

Now?

NOW????????

[jack1974]

Yes, that's what I'm talking about lol

And here I thought SOTW was suppose to be a "small" game to keep us entertained while you worked on Loren 2. Well you defiantly got everyone entertained but now I'm starting to have nightmares about how long Loren 2 is going to take.

[jack1974]

Yes this is partly why I've taken more time on SOTW. When I noticed there was really no hope for Loren sequels to be out soon, I decided was worth spending more time on this one. In theory before Loren 2 I also should finish Planet Stronghold 2... Anyways, they'll be all out, but I don't want to rush things anymore since after all is normal for indie RPGs to take 2-3 years of work! And between each RPG release I also do dating/life sim, so...
