Status Update (Patreon)

Hey guys,
I've been quiet for the past couple weeks but I have a good reason I swear!
So... you all know I was messing around with the 2d side scrolling stuff. Well I learned a ton from my experiments. My biggest take away was how difficult it was going to be to implement something like that into the current version of Uncommon Breed.
So I scrapped it.
All of it.
....
BUT FEAR NOT!
I already rewrote the whole thing. I'll admit I underestimated how much work it would actually take ("nooo Foxbytes... you can cram 2-3 months work into a couple weeks it's fiiiineee..." -_-) but it's done! So here's some cool stuff that came from the refactor:
Character Idle Animations
Yup. Your favorite character is going to come to life with some subtle breathing animations. I'm sure I don't need to explain how cool this is! Basically, this is just the start. I want to keep pushing the animation experiments and bring the whole world of Uncommon Breed to life!
Saving At The Exact Point You Save
I know I know... seems basic right? Well the previous version of UB really didn't allow it. The way I implemented moving the story was crappy for things like saving and mid dialogue animations.
Which brings me to the next point.
More Animations
So this happened behind the scenes but I was very limited as to when I could do things. Just know this new content drop is going to have a ton more animations and it has a lot to do with the refactor.
Other Stuff Coming
- Fun UI Changes (choices / dialogue)
- New Save Menu (way better looking save file names too)
- Health-bars that react to character HP (they move and break and stuff)
- Tons of new spell animations and cleaned up old ones.
So yeah, the next update is coming really soon. I know some of you may be disappointed it wasn't with this post but I promise I'm working my tail off to get it ready for you.
Ok bye!
