https://charlottezxz.itch.io/ressurflection

The demo is the prologue of the game.

- Genre; RPG, adventure, cartoon, fantasy -  Play time is between 1 hour to 2 hours, highly dependent on how much you explore or interact. - Development stage; Beta Demo, it is the opening of the game as a demo.

Feedback-

All feedback is welcome and kindly appreciated. I've had a small group of people test it beforehand, but there were a few problems we were unable to replicate.

Ideally feedback is best received on the Discord at the following link; https://t.co/DibBXnVkfd?amp=1

Hey Folks!

Here with another shorter update, this time on menus and things!

We’ve been making some headway on our own menus for the game and have recently finished the  Main Menu and party selection. We’ve also made some good lee way on the Status Screen, Save scene and more.

Here’s the selection for other people in the party both active and reserve.

And here’s some current progress on the Status Menu!

That’s all i’ll be showing for now!

Until next time!

Hey folks here's an update on progress on animations and skills in the battle scene for Ressurflection! 

It's slowly getting there with a lot of them in place just needing timing and action sequence tweaks. Sounds are gonna be done last, as some of those sounds are repeated.

We are aiming for a Summer release of the demo, so stay tuned!

Time to go back to my hole and draw away!

Until next time!

Hi Folks,

April-ling your way here to give ya another update!

We're making a lot of steady progress on all the assets we need for both future things and present (demo), mainly concerning the battle system mechanics and its animated little fellas.

Over the past few days I've been animating and finally replacing a lot of placeholder assets, such as in the opening games tutorial and finally fully finishing it and getting to all those ‘edumacational’ bits.

I’ve attached a snippet of the tutorial in action to give you a little peak into what its like and what to expect.

For now i’ll let this short little update and its visual video aid do all the talking!

Thanks for your continued patience and support, until next time!

Hi folks, here with another accumulative update! 

Now where to begin..?

As of recently or the past month and before kinda, I’ve had a good friend of mine 8bit or Bart as I otherwise call him join us on the project for Ressurflection! He’s a smort little bean and who excels in a lot of the logical groundwork such as the math, formulas and coding tweaks of things that need doing as well as a pretty good writer! Plus he makes for a very soft cushion to land on and beat up ;)

Most of the work or works that have been going on behind the scenes can be summed up as a lot of animations, animations and more animations plus a lot of battle, battle and more battle work! There’s been countless edits and improvements to the game as a whole that I believe screenshots will do it better to showcase.

Progress is really coming along, with most of the groundwork there, there are just some very important battle bugs that need squashing such as targeting allies/enemies and the menu commands/list not populating/refreshing properly as two of the more notable.

Skills are also being worked on for the characters both visual, action sequencing and the sound part of it, it’s really all coming together as one neat little package!

Give it a month or two and we’ll have the demo ready hopefully!

Hehehehehe!

Until next time!

Sippy sippy!

I made a little tea sipping animation for Jerine, one of the circus members in our game!This was coot to do! I kinda goofed on the cards on the hat but i spent long enough on it as is! 

It’s an emoji on the server now, delightful!

Hi folks, just a quick update on the project so far to keep you all in the loop!

Just before Christmas i released a small, work in progress build of the demo for a few people to play on the Ressurflection Discord. It went over really well, with the testers finding bugs, grammar mistakes and some diabolical overlooked    errors (such as a missing asset or wrong picture call) and improving the game experience overall. 

I’d firstly like to really thank everyone who played and tested that build and who relayed their feedback to me whether directly in DM or the discord in public, it has all been taken into consideration and on board this gammak train. 

As a result of it, i have been spending my time improving the overall game and replacing all the missing assets there were either placeholdered or absent in that current build. I aim to have it complete in the coming months, although i can’t place an exact ETA on it, as some of the assets in the build will apply to the game overall and not just specific scenario for the demo.

The demo as a whole, is the Prologue/Start of the game which can be completed in around 20-30minutes of time, however quite a few people spent longer than that looking into all the various little tid bits of dialogue and things to interact with.

In the meanwhile i also set up an Itchio page for the project which can be found here with an update to date synopsis, screenshots and images.

Thank you very much for your patience, i hope to have something fun and enjoyable for you all to play in the coming months.

Many thanks,

Charlotte

Monster theme for this daily drawing!

And because i want to make up for the missing January days i haven’t sketched (i am about 4 drawings behind) it is a double whammy today.

The blue one was based of a shark and somehow became that colorful boi and the bird like one is a mount design of a hybrid of a bird/horse/dog! I might end up using them in the game as they are pretty swell.

Here’s a sketch from this morning themed on ‘honey’ featuring Maxwell from the game along with some bee characters.

Hi guys, here’s my belated Happy new years!

To start it off here is a piece of concept art/character art i have done of all the circus bois from the ‘Roulette Runner’s circus in Ressurflection!

They are all quite the merry, bright, colourful cast of bunchful characters!

I intend to go back and add some missing details such as feathers for Blackjack’s wings and a few more things, but here it is for now!

[ressurflection]

Fluttering in to say Happy holidays everyone, hope you have a swell day!

Here’s to another good year!

Thanks again!

Hi Folks,

Sorry for the quiet, I've been hard at work in various things for the game!

Here’s a revamped title screen!

I overhauled a chunk of the assets, made some better, it is much visually less cluttered and there’s a better colour contrast. The font is far more readable and the sfx has been changed to a kalimba sound.

Also from a structural stand point, i had some testers have lag during it - that no longer happens now.

I will make a deeper more explained post on other goings on a little later down the line.

For now, take care!
