Happy New Year everyone! Get ready to big things coming soon! My friend beta is going to launch in a week!

Hope everyone is having a great holiday season!!

Aha! Map bug fixed, android app deployed! Now to do the cleanup and then a beta! For now some teaser images!

Got the new maps system working! Just need to make some tweaks and try things out on the android device!

Alright rolled back some SDKs and got things building on android. Had to remove mapbox. Now building things back with OnlineMaps asset. Let's see how it goes!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

So found mapbox sdk3 working through errors from bringing it in and upgrading. See what happens when I make it through!

Phew the last hurdles are always the hardest. Configure things for android devices has been a challenge, and mapbox is deprecated? Yikes? Gonna take some time to work through evidently. Less fun aspects of game dev, but will get through it! Until then hope everyone had a great weekend!

To keep the tree's this size or no? Otherwise made progress on input, and scene loading, but still not working exactly right on android. Making progress though. #WizardlyWay

So am walking around, and can do the base attack on enemies but I need to smooth out spells again! Then I will be running a short series while i test through things on phone! Summers drawing to an end so I wont be running every couple weekends. Lots more dev ahead! #wizardlyway

Phew so updating input systems threw things for a loop. Still tryna debug it, but I'll get there a step at a time. Ill upload a video soon of walking around!

Went on a vacation to Colorado! Got to unwind with family, but now im back and trying to get things running!

Database hooked up! Now true phone testing and fixing up bugs!

last 2 weeks has been admin stuff? applying for LLC and getting a new phone that can connect via a cable. so pumped haha now brainstorming and smoothing things out to release

So been a wild last 2 weeks. Down side no progress with the database! Sometimes you run into roadblocks, it takes time to figure them out! I will knock down this roadblock and keep moving forward! #WizardlyWay

The back end isn't always the most glamorous but its needed for things to work, and to interact with others! So the API is available, but the database needs to be configured. Baby steps!

This week continued rewriting the API back-end. Got it working locally. Now to push it so the app can access and get the database setup! #WizardlyWay

Phew! This last week was just having fun on vacation, and celebrating a wedding! Will need to think about features to handle that in the game in the future! Before travel I transferred API/Database code to a new project. Need to get things up to date to perform the newest magic! #wizardlyway

Ice storm spell

Time to lay down some ice! #wizardlyway #indiedev #gamedev

Showing off the hurricane spell

If your caught right outside the eye of a hurricane it can be a bad time! #wizardlyway #indiedev #gamedev

Healing Energy Spell

Got to kick that healing energy into overdrive sometimes!

#gamedev #wizardlyway #indiedev

Attacking with a spark spell

What a spark!

This week was about your security and making sure access tokens were saved, and never any other critical information. All that remains is a bit of cleanup! Next up spells! Spells Galoreeeeee!

So after some reflection, I realized I have been developing cool things, but why not release sooner and start getting feedback? So I am going to go about tightening up some features, and prepping for a release in the coming months. This week a little background audio was put in!

Another week has flown fast! Lotsa tightening up of the quest line. This week I was making quests when exploring a town, and through portals. Next up repelling folks attacking something precious to you! Also its Easter. Hope those who celebrate have a wonderful day!

Less glamorous this week. Updated the input system in unity! Also continued working on main quest line. Exploration quests! Aka going somewhere new! Just a few more to tighten up!

Inn

Last but not least is the Inn! While its bare bones now. This will be the place to gather, take on tasks from your neighbors and to form a sense of community! #IndieGameDev #WizardlyWay

Teleportation Room

The next two buildings is the teleportation assembly. Since this is a location based games, you might have so favorite places in the world you would like to return too! In order to do that you need to mark them, and hop on one of the teleportation pads! #WizardlyWay

Inside a home

Looped back to tighten up some building flows. 3 buildings so far. The first, is the home. Because there is no place like home. From there you can build outward.

Indoor level

Creating my first indoor level! This happens to be right before going up to a boss. #indiedev #gamedev
