Last Post!

Just a reminder for everyone to that since this site is gonna be dead, you should all jump ship to https://twitter.com/StrawberryOctii if you wanna see me continue my project (Which is almost completed, May I add!)

State of my Tumblr!

With the Recent news of Tumblr and their new Rules, I will be announcing that I will be shutting down this account pretty soon. (probably before the 17!)

To be honest, I have not been using this website pretty much for the last couple of years. Its not really a good place to meet people, especially with how alienating the user interface is. I been meaning to ditch this joint for awhile now anyhoo!

I hope those of you who are enjoy my content join me at  https://twitter.com/StrawberryOctii

While I know its not necessary to shut down this account, I just do not enjoy this website anymore. I do hope you understand, and would join me on Twitter. Its not perfect, but its a lot more enjoyable experience then I have had on here!

Thank you to all my followers though for sticking by with me. I really do appreciate all the support you guys have been giving me on these last few years here, so I REALLY hope I can see you guys again soon on Twitter!

See you all on the flip side!

In this video, we get a look at another of the Dragon Bosses, Dracul! I decided to upload this due to Halloween around the corner, and what better way to celebrate it with a Spooky Dragon!

You may Recognize this Map from the Demo; It has been re-purposed from the Mandrakes Lair into the Garden of Deception! Another Map done, with only 1 more major map to go, and 4 more smaller Maps. I'm very nearly done!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

Another Level Done, but this time I can't show you plenty of Screen Shots for now as I want to keep most of this place a secret! Instead, have a Video of one of the NPC's that appear in the Desert Area, Twilight Sands!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

Another Map Done and Another Batch of Screen Shots!... Only a few more maps left, and I am done and dusted! This Map here is the Mount Arctic, which is an area filled with Snow, Ice and even a Miners Cabin Area!

a TV Bumper I created for my buddy for his Streams!

I went with a Nickelodeon look, sound and feel when I created. I hope it came out very convincing, but I am very happy with how it turned out!

Hello Again, Here I am with a new Mini vid, this time with a mechanic that I been keeping a secret... til now! The Kicking Mechanic has many properties, some of which are shown in this video. If you are a Dark Messiah fan, you may get a... KICK... out of this!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

Here is some Screen Shots of the Beach Area Known as the Rainy Shores in MoM!

I hope the visuals here look nice!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

Some new Revamped Official Art for Memoirs of Magic, Created by a very dear and close friend. There will be more of these, and not just of the main cast; even bosses and summons will get them too! This first one is of the Gunslinger, Gremile 'Hot Shot'!

I know this isn't a question, but I'd just like to say that I appreciate all the info you release of the game. It really makes the people who do watch this blog get the impression that you care about the game you're making. But hey, don't show your full hand! Leave some secrets for us to find!

While not a question, I appreciate such thoughts anyway; I do plan on showing a few more stuff of, such as levels and a special mechanic coming up, but I do want people to experience the contents of the game as they play!

I wish I could post more really, but a lot of stuff I have done is spoilery. However I am working on stuff as we speak which would be fine to show off!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

You Can now Ask me Stuff!

I thought I had this enabled already, but somebody pointed out it was disabled. This was not intended!

If you have any questions, feel free to use the ask bar or directly message me!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

Here's a video Showcase of Some Visual Tweaks I made. A lot of the particles are now done with Additive Rendering, to give them that ol PS1/N64 Look! Another Video soon that will showcase a recently implemented mechanic some peeps will dig!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

Also, a little something to tide you all over; a special Item called the Staff of Balance. I am pretty happy with how its appearance and animation turned out! On another note, only 1 more boss to do and all the bosses are done!

Patreon Thoughts

A lot of people have been suggesting I should make a patreon, but I am not entirely sure are the benefits I could provide for such things. I also don’t want to spoil too much either, so I was wondering what you guys thought if I were to do such a thing?

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

Hello Again, its been awhile since I showed this guy off; it was the official trailer in fact a year or two back! This time, you get to see the ACTUAL boss in action, alongside some model and design tweaks I made!

[strawberryoctopusproductions]

I am not exactly sure how to reply to replies on tumblr, so I will just do this instead: Some one was asking how you level up in Memoirs of Magic. Its simple!

The Shops basically act as a level up mechanic in the game, but the only weapons you can upgrade in the demo are the Auto-Arrow and the Earth Tome. In the full game however, you are visit the other shops at any time to rectify this issue! (You still need to visit their respective village though!)
