WISHMAKER RE-ANNOUNCEMENT! It's been a while, and since WISHMAKER has changed engines I thought I'd make a new little thread about it! (As well as some fun news near the end so stay tuned!)✨ (Click to read more!)
WISHMAKER was originally planned to be developed in Unity. Luckily I was still very early-in when Unity announced their controversial update. Even though Unity went and changed their changes eventually, I decided in the end that I felt most comfortable changing engines.
WISHMAKER is now being developed in RPGMaker MZ. Despite this, the game is still set to be a third-person point-and-click adventure game, & I can say pretty confidently it looks the part too! Nothing like my past games developed in RPGM!(not that that look is bad!)
While RPGMaker comes with its own limitations, it's also an engine I'm more experienced in. And because of that there's now things I'm excited to do in it that I would have never been able to do in Unity due to my inexperience! Silver linings abound! Most of my time spent in Unity was just trying to learn it, which is not a challenge I have now. I have already been making faster progress with WISHMAKER recently since I don't have the learning curve I did with Unity!
While I'm still not 100% on how releasing chapters will go, it is likely that each chapter of WISHMAKER will be separated into its own RPGMaker game (but all kept in the same space). This would allow chapters to be updated individually in the case of bugs, and also allow me to create each chapter without worrying of things like conflicting plugins/affecting something in an earlier chapter, etc.
Just like my initial announcement, I am a bit nervous announcing it so early in its (re)development. However, you all have been so kind and patient with me and I know you will keep it up and it means the world to me! And because of that...
NEXT SATURDAY I am planning to share a screenshot of the game! Even though this version of the game is still really early in development like I said, it has also been at least 3 months since my initial announcement and I KNOW people are curious, so I wanna give everyone a quick look into what it'll be about! And I'm also SO excited to show you just how much different it looks from the games I've made in the past and while I don't want to be too presumptuous, I have a feeling you're really gonna be excited for it!
With all that said, thank you all SO much for all the support on all my work! Changing engines was scary but you guys still kept patient with me and supported me and it really does mean a lot to me. I'm so excited to show you all I have up my sleeve soon! THANK YOU!❤️
