Hey folks!
I apologize for the lack of communication over the past month. My "real life" job has had me working on a big project for the last several months, and the workload on it has increased significantly in the past month. I volunteered for the project, so it's my own fault, heh.But due to the sheer size of the project (and no, I won't go into details, as I want to keep my real-life software engineering work separate from my own endeavors. You know how it issometimes companies prefer not to share any details to prevent the leakage of proprietary information etc.). I just havent been able to work on the game.
TLDR, I've been working from 9 am to 10 pm on this project soem days, which, as you can imagine, leaves little time for game development.
On the personal side of things, my adorable doggo Bella hasn't been as energetic lately. She used to beg me to play every five minutes, but now she only wants to play once a day if that. However, she's been eating well (she eats super fast, heh) and enjoys her daily walks. Her temperature is normal too, so the reduced energy might just be due to the heat. Still, it (and her seeming stuffiness) worried me enough to schedule a vet appointment for Monday. So I've switched to a clinic vet (appointment-based, not walk-in) because the veterinary hospital felt too impersonal. And Bella's odd behavior makes me think they might not have done a thorough job. This means she'll be getting a full physical on Monday, and I'm sure they'll be able to tell me if anything's wrong. I also want to get her up to date on her vaccinations.
Also, i will be going on vacation starting on the 8th and be gone for the week after, so no game dev will happen that week either.
Still, I have managed to get SOME stuff done.
Changes:
-All the planned noderooms liminal portrait art is done, which is a total of 30 images. One Example:
-Added sound for donut (If ya know you know) -More names are handled in operator name checker. -Can no longe name the operator after some more important 'characters' -if you name something empty string it now gets a special name -Added new possible win condition/goal to noderooms maps with an interesting twist to it. --Its for capturing all the "nodes" and has some other things it does heh
I also managed to get some work done on my less intensive side project, NoUtopia (which might get a new name). However, this will remain a side project as long as I'm working on DR4X, heh. But I have plans....

The game has simple, fun, fast paced, and dynamic gameplay where each type of faction uses different resources and completely unique playstyles.
Play in an evolving world, filling up with horrors and monsters if you don’t try to stop their spread, unique events and so on.
It also has a very reactive world map and an in depth skirmish creator. With multiple possible game modes based on your choices.
Research powerful stacking technologies to dominate your enemies, or let the other factions and even the nearby gremlin horde learn how to cause more trouble for you with their own technologies.
Do you want to fight other empires? Or perhaps just defeat the monsters infesting the realm. Or maybe even be the monsters infesting the realm! It is your choice!
When it is ready for beta I will be releasing it on Steam in a sort of early access. If you are interested follow this page and my twitter.
