CODING MONTH! Development is churning along on the demo and the main game loops are currently being written. While there's still a ton to do, base functionality is being added daily. Currently the splash screen, main menu, and one partial scene have been strung together, but I'm holding off on screenshots and video until I refine the art.

So where are we? Overall, maybe 10% complete, if that. Want to see my unfinished to-do list? Me neither, but here it is!

• Resize/remake art assets at a higher resolution. Some won't take much refinement, but others are going to take a minute to complete. I just wasn't happy with the look when assets were scaled to 1920x1080.
• Make backgrounds. I've got a pile of these to finish. Placeholder MS Paint looking stuff for now!
• Draw items.
• Finish up the demo script. The intro and some dialogue is complete.
• CODING. LOTS AND LOTS OF CODING. I honestly don't think this will take as long as the art assets, but there are still a lot of systems to put in place. NPC menus and UI are going to be a decent part of this. Most of the actual game variables affected by the story are planned/being written with the dialogue tree.
• Quests! About 2/3 of the game quests have been written. Some need refinement, but the base is there. The other third need to be designed yet.
• Music! I'll be honest, I'll probably pay for some good background music. I'm going to try to compose something for shits and giggles, but expect it to sound horrible and only be included as an optional bonus soundtrack if I even finish it. Seriously, I love playing music, but that doesn't mean I'm any good at it!
• Sound effects. Now these I can do. They'll be one of the last pieces I put together, but they'll be quick enough to get done.

That enough for ya? Hell, there's probably even more I didn't think of to add to the list. Honestly, it doesn't matter though! Slog Day keeps chugging along like a choo-choo and the demo'll be out before you know it. Well, maybe in about 3-4 months, but we're getting there! See you next update!
