It. Has. Been. WAAAAAY. Too. Long.

I did mention that life had become a bit busy, but Im starting to figure it out, and getting accustomed to making time for working on stuff. Ive also found a new love for streaming! Let me break some stuff down into 3 bullet points. [olist]

The focus for this year is on JKR. I have hopes of working more on T-1000 eventually, perhaps even getting a demo out by the end of this year ()! But right now, even juggling between two projects is a bit too much for a university student.

A lot of the delay comes from rewriting. After getting my stuff together, I realized I wasnt too happy with parts of the game's story. The last quarter of 2024 was mostly spent figuring out in my mind what I wanted the story of JKR to be.

This is just to show that I havent been (completely) lazy this year, and these are from last week I started outlining the story in February this year, and Ive almost outlined the WHOLE story of JKR. I will soon be putting it all into a script with the help of my writers (theyre my friends too, I guess ), and I have a good idea of what I want to put into and change about current and future chapters. Expect story updates and retconning once we go into EA!

The I.M.I.Self Hope Initiative is back! There are some updates to the plan too: We plan to give every quarter of the year (March, June, September, December), we will run weeklong fundraisers, and we are now also interested in supporting charities involved in long-term solutions to global issues. You can read more about it at https://imiself.se/hope! :D [/olist]

V. 2.6.0 - Tomorrow!

Starting January this year, Ive slowly but surely started to get back into enjoying working on JKR again, and Ive been making updates and changes that I know I wanted to get around to until life got in the way. Its not a big update! But its a toe-dip into the waters, and there are some features yall might rock with and more! :D

COLOR ADJUSTMENT

You can adjust certain game colors in the Settings menu. This one has been on my Trello for uhh, I dunno actually. Let me check real qui

Uh. Awkward. well, its here now! The Colorblind Correction filters we had before werent all that useful (it was made especially clear when Accessibility specialist Ian Hamilton called us on it). Its more for detecting contrast issues rather than actually HELPING with perceiving color info. These filters have now been completely stripped from the game. Instead, in the Accessibility settings, you can just simply adjust the colors of gameplay elements to your liking! This is strictly for UI elements for now, but with future updates, we will add more things you can customize in the game :D

A LOT OF UI UPDATES

Upgrades / Settings UI A lot of changes were also made to the Upgrades / Settings UI! Tutorials, icons, splitting into groups, new settings, etc. Some very neat QoL stuff :)

BTS ADJUSTMENTS

More secretly, a lot of changes has been made to the Saving System and the way we make game builds, both to make things more efficient and smaller, and also to accommodate new and future features.
