Dawes-24: Week 4
Part 3 and 4 of the game is developed for this quick Alpha to get some initial feedback about the new game mechanics involved in this, I think I'll be able to launch at least something substantial to play and give a rough idea what the story is and what the game mechanics are. Until then, here's some more images without context, just enjoy the mapping I guess.

Dawes-24: Week 5
I've just finished a small Alpha/Demo for this project, just to get some initial feedback on how it is, before I start to get more invested into this, just to avoid some long term mistakes. I'd appreciate reviews and feedback :D

[8-BitNovels]

Dawes-24: Week 6
Hey! I was mostly focused onto getting through feedback and also getting the game reviewed by content creators for the Alpha of this project.

So the progress I did was adding some small Easter Eggs now and there, with one somewhere in here...

Dawes-24: Week 7
Hello there!
I revamped the prologue scene, changing little bits now and there after receiving feedback about it.
Furthermore, to counter the lag issue, I'm changing the fog and the lighting. With the fog completely done and half way into the lighting, which I should finish by this weekend, hopefully. Anyways, enjoy some of these images

Hello there!
First of all, I've fixed the bugs within the training scenes.

And finishing off the lighting in order to reduce the lag, accompanied with fog.
