Interactive Events - Work in Progress #3
But, first things first. Unfortunately due to the level of complexity of events and the amount of work that still needs to be done this update won't be released in Q1 2021 as promised before. Just like I wrote in previous posts it will become public once it will be finished and tested. We don't want to make the CD Projekt's mistake. Right now we don't want to give any specific date but it will certainly be in Q2 2021 ;) On top of the reasons mentioned above, I have my final exams at school in May. For the past week, I had mock exams and literally haven't opened Unity even for a second to get anything done. So that's another reason for this delay.
Ok, so now let's talk about what is the current state of the progress for Interactive Events. Right now we have finished writing 19 from 22 planned events for the first update. That means they are written in one of two officially supported languages (English / Polish, still need to be translated to the other one), triggered in appropriate moments during gameplay, and also influence it. Right now most of them are missing some of the graphics and were not tested very much, so there still might be some bugs and branches not working as intended. That's what we are going to focus on the most in the coming weeks - finishing and testing those that are already in the game.
Meanwhile, our 3D Artist Bartek is working on a new map! It's going to be the middle location between Family House and the City Center Office. It's going to be cheaper, but also give you fewer bonuses and less space for your employees. The plan is to add it in a separate update soon after the one with Interactive Events. In this update, you'll also get events that are connected to a given location. That means you will be able to trigger them only when you are currently in it. You can check some Work in Progress screenshots below :D
And that's pretty much it for today. Once again sorry for the delay but we hope you are going to enjoy the update when it will finally come out ;) Have a great day! Roman

DevLife - Linux [2.24 G]
Have you ever wanted to try what it's like to be a programmer, graphic designer, or tester, but you didn't have the right skills or time to learn them? In DevLIfe you can experience it for yourself! Create your character and guide him or her through life in the IT industry. Complete commissions, create your projects, set up your own company, hire employees, and lead them to success!
Although the game is in Early Access, it already contains many features and a mechanic. The most important of them are:
- Creating your own character and guiding him or her through a career in the IT industry
- Two extensive skill trees - learn how to create websites and mobile applications. Decide what direction you want to take in your career!
- Finding and fulfilling commissions for external clients and improving your skills through learning
- Starting your own company, creating your own projects, hiring employees and taking care of their well-being and growth
- Two locations - work from home or in an office in the city centre
- Build Mode - buy new furniture, decorations or RTV equipment and take care of the comfort and high performance of your employees
We won't stop here. In future versions we plan to expand the "life" aspect of DevLife by adding some key mechanics such as:
- Traits and Attributes of the Characters
- Interactive Events Influencing the Game
Besides, with each update in the game the available content will be expanded, there are plans for:
- Two New Skills Trees - Video Games and Desktop Applications
- New Character Customization Options
- Additional Locations
- New Furniture
We will listen to players' opinions and introduce their ideas into the game to make it as much playable as we can. We hope that your experience with DevLife will be the most enjoyable!
