Update #43 - URW (Patreon)

Evening!

I'm finished recording UnReal World and well into editing it. I'm particularly happy with this one because it's going to be using something that was prepared for quite a while, and I'm not gonna spoil it just yet. There'll be a much longer post next time explaining how it was put together, and it's actually what I'll be waiting on for the most part as the finishing touches are done. I'm expecting the video to be done either on Friday or around the weekend depending on how things go with that.

The game definitely has a learning cure to it when it comes to the controls, and reminds me a lot of Dwarf Fortress in that regard. Tons of keys to learn, that are also cap sensitive so while just pressing t might ask to throw an object a capitalized T decides what weapon or clothing item you want to take off. It was definitely the biggest hurdle for a while, but it's actually pretty intuitive once you get the hang of things. In fact, my biggest hurdle was the game recorder glitching out and recording a bunch of black screen one night, but it wasn't too hard to get new footage for that. So for the most part everything is smooth sailing. 

Now as for Elite the good news is the new tutorial is accessible from the ship itself so no new need to restart thankfully. The bad news is a bug caused a bunch of stuff in storage to lose modification items (long explanation if you don't play the game) so I'm waiting on that to get fixed up again. Apparently this is a game wide issue that Frontier is working to get resolved so it shouldn't be too far of a delay on that. In any case I'll be continuing it and some of the October games this coming week.

Thanks so much your your support!
