In this month, I am aiming to fix some of the issues I&#8217;ve discovered, thanks to some feedback from others who have tested my game! Thanks to Michael H and <a href=\"http:\/\/cheesetalks.net\">Cheeseness (cheesetalks.net)<\/a> who contacted me via Discord. I&#8217;ve already fixed a few of them, but there&#8217;s still some issues remaining, like where the player can get their head stuck on ceilings.. I think I have an idea how to fix it, so I will see what I can do. After I&#8217;ve fixed those smaller issues, I will move on to the less vital but still important features to be implemented for the release version of the game! Such as player stats, settings menus and Steam achievements. I didn&#8217;t feel those were necessary to implement before releasing a major test build. Which means, the next release to the public will likely be on Steam! We&#8217;ll see..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will likely be planning on hosting a <strong>launch party!<\/strong> I&#8217;ve been to a launch party for Where the Snow Settles, by Myriad Games. It was an honour to be invited, and wonderful to see them launch the game. I will have a party too! With real beers. If you want to take part, please join my Discord server, in the links section of this website, and you will get notified when it&#8217;s on.. It will be invite only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have some other non-games projects I&#8217;m working on, such as a cross-platform music player, and an electronic virtual pet. I may spend some time on those this month, which might slow down my game development a little. But I am still aiming for a Steam release within 6 months from now. Likely much less than 6 months. Get excited!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m still very keen to work on Wizards with Rockets. I briefly had a look at Squirrel scripting the other day, for another project. I am going to be implementing scripting in the engine, so I can make scripted events, like dialog and animations in the single-player campaign. That&#8217;ll be big! But Gravity Flux comes first for now. Keen to release my first game on Steam!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m going to try doing monthly updates on my game dev work, what I plan to do for the following month.
