Hotel Tiinn-inn | Development Week 1 (10/4 t/m 12/4) (Patreon)

Hello everyone!

As requested by the patrons, I'm hereby officially starting off my development for the Hotel Tiinn-inn game. To make things easier for everyone, and to keep everyone in the loop, I've decided to make a Development blog that I will be keeping weekly. In it, I will be specifying what things are done, and through it, also slowly create a more and more clear roadmap to help with producing the game. For now, this means a lot of planning, discussing and writing, to eventually come to a game I'm hoping will be a lot of fun for everyone to enjoy.

To come to a game, we're creating a roadmap to also make things easier on ourselves, and so that we know what we will need to do to finish off builds of the game. The road map is as follows:
