Mum and I were in a morrisons cafe and she asked me about game development because I mentioned that when she asked what I was going to do all holidays. We talked for a bit and she suggested that she'll pay the fee for uploading games onto steam if I charge money for them. I've come to a decision that smaller game jam stuff and competition games will be free on my Newgrounds, but the big planned projects will be only demos and the full versions will be paid on itch.io and steam (probably for very little though).

yeah...that's it.

I haven't done much work on either of the games in the past few days as I haven't felt motivated to do so. I'm currently making something for youtube but don't expect much happening here for a while.

I stayed up until midnight coding yesterday. I'm almost finished the art gallery scene so I'll so the other animations for the nene remake after that.

edit: i've finished it.

I got 4 reviews in less than 24 hours, that's never happened before. It's still in judgement though so I can't tell currently. I'll work a bit on my main project and make the other animations inbetween.

edit:

yayyyyyyyy

more than half!

The game runs fine on desktop, but when I've tried to test it in the browser it doesn't work as well. There isn't anything I can do about it, which is really annoying, but I'm uploading it anyway.

I've exported it but I can't upload it here just yet. The desktop version works fine, and is currently in itch.io; but the HTML version is bugged and I don't know why. The animations glitch out. I've asked on the godot discord server so it'll have to be uploaded sometime tomorrow when I figure out why it isn't running as expected.

I'll do some finalising and stuff, but the main stuff is done.

I've got about half of the animations done so far.

currently doing all the suicide animations. I got the hanging animation completed all yesterday, but there's still a lot to do. Pencil2D is also acting up and refusing to import audio so that's annoying aswell.

It takes a while to animate it all as I do the storyboarding in pencil2d, export the keyframes as pngs, draw the parts in medibang paint pro (head, torso, arms, etc), import those into pencil2d and do all the animated bits. It takes a while, but it's quicker and smoother than drawing it by hand (also I hate pencil2d's drawing tools.)

there's sound effects too but this version's a webp.
