Wiz & Emerald Dawn Release Date (Patreon)

Hey guys, been a while again! I have a lot to talk about but let me give you a quick rundown before I go in depth.

• May rewards were sent out a week ago (if you paid for this May ie you were charged in June and didn't receive a message, please let me know!)
• June Character suggestions will go up later
• October period is paused meaning you won't be charged on November 1st and there are no rewards for this month (note that July, August, September were paused as well, so there are no rewards for those months)
• Emerald Dawn 1.0 release date is November 20, 2022

I apologize for not posting more often. I make it a point to post only when I have something new to show.

I've been really busy working on Emerald Dawn CGs and I couldn't show those off for obvious reasons. Anyway, I managed to add about 13 unique CGs! Most of them are still unfinished but they cover most of the scenes. That number could still go up because I just can't seem to stop myself from adding more CGs! 😅😅

As outlined above, the final release date for version 1.0 is on November 20, 2022. Why this specific date? Well, I definitely need more time to polish everything. Another big reason for that date is it's the anniversary of Emerald Dawn! I officially began Emerald Dawn back in November 20, 2021!

Here's proof of my initial commit ^^ (see the post gallery up top if this image is too small)

Quick tangent, I saw Wiz as my profile picture on Github and got the sudden urge to draw her, and so I did :D

Currently, the script is at 17K words. Not much added, but I actually re-wrote some scenes a bunch of times (mostly the ending) because I just can't be satisfied lol. Apart from writing and drawing CGs, there's still a lot of things to do (finish sprites, BGs, UI, adding sounds and music, etc etc) But I think I can manage all those in the next few weeks!

Unfortunately, I can't show most of my progress over the past month or so since it's mostly CGs and writing. But here's a little transition I did to show the passage of time, this might look familiar for those who played the game ^^

I quite like the effect ^^

And.... I'm afraid that's all for now. Not a whole lot to show right now but the project is shaping up really well and I'm really excited for the release!

There's still a lot to be done but I'm super motivated more than ever because I am actually nearing the finish line! That really means a lot to me as someone who constantly starts projects but never finishes any of them 😭😭

In other news, I haven't forgotten about June rewards! I'll put up the Character suggestions a little later so we can get that rolling too!

Here's a little extra sketch to end this post ^^ I always feel a little guilty whenever I draw Wiz like this lol
