June Progress Report

Hey guys, it’s been a while since the last build was posted and I just wanted to do a quick update to let everyone know the status of the game. I’ll probably start doing these every month or so.

A lot of work has been done on Build 4 already, but it’s not quite ready to be released. Most of the maps have been done, with only a few remaining. The next step will be going through and adding all the events, such as trainer battles, hidden items, and story encounters. If I had to give an estimate, I’d say Build 4 is roughly 75% complete.

My original target for release was the end of this month, however I’m not sure that’s quite attainable at this point. Last week I had a data corruption episode that set my progress back by about a week. I can’t guarantee a release date right now, but I’m currently aiming for the ballpark of July 8th to 15th.

I know it’s still a ways off, but I promise you guys are going to enjoy the next build. There’s loads of great stuff to look forward to, including a new town, a few dungeons, puzzles, battles, secrets, and of course story.

I’ve also had some amazing work done by a few great contributors, but we always need more. If you want to help get this build out faster and want to design some sprites, send me a message on Discord.

Of course, in the meantime, feel free to join the community by posting your feedback, thoughts, opinions, theories, and questions on the subreddit or chatting with everyone on the Discord server.

Thanks for your patience, everyone!
