Patreon 2D Update and Roadmap (Patreon)

Above is the Road-map for the next few months!
Hi all, an important update we'd like to inform you about, due to community feedback and the time it was taking to make 3D environments, we've decided to go back to the old 2D environments that Kuja is amazing at drawing.
The 3D environments had a ton of potential, and honestly if we had more time we could have made them work with the 2D characters, but the community found them divisive. Some people loved them, others hated them. So we've gone back to 2D backgrounds like 0.8 had, but with a kicker, we're going to be including parallax scrolling, as well as simulating dynamic time/weather using parallaxing. For example in this image:
The moons are separate layers, as are the clouds, which allows us to move them as the day progresses in-game. We will also be able to change how NPCs behave/jobs during nighttime as well, and include timed events that can only be done at certain times.
Heres the level plan for the Razorclaw Tribe level, the primary level in the next build along with the level art Kuja created.
We also have a little piece for KRAM (Krystal Appreciation Month) for the patrons that is a little late, but we think you will enjoy.
