The end of an eraAlright I'm having to make a difficult decision here. The more I work on sound effects the more I realize how insane of a task it actually is. There's tons of enemies that need hit, death, and attack sounds (especially for bosses), tons of items, props, player specific sound effects etc. The list is well into the hundreds, and I am by no means a competent sound designer. I have no idea what I'm doing really and some sounds have taken upwards of 30-40 minutes to get to the point that I'm satisfied with it. I just cannot dedicate this much time into Bounty Below.
It's gotten me thinking about that as a whole as well. While the release certainly alleviated some of dread I felt working on Bounty Below for a while, all of that energy has faded away now. It's incredibly difficult to force myself to continue working on Bounty Below when, as I've stated a few times in the past, it was never a game I was too passionate about to begin with.
I'm choosing to end things here unfortunately. I wish I could find the drive to polish it up more, but it just doesn't feel worth it anymore. Sound effects would certainly help the feel of dungeons, but there are way deeper fundamental flaws getting in the way of that goal anyways so why waste hours and weeks of development time when I could be spending it making something much better? I'm proud of myself for pushing the game to a point where I'm satisfied with its release, and hopefully you aren't too disappointed with things as they are. I'm very excited to work on some of the ideas I've had on my mind for the 5+ years I've been stuck working on Bounty Below, and I hope you'll enjoy them when they're ready!
Thank you so much for the support you've given me!
