A screenshot of Tiled open on a Windows 11 desktop. There map is a white street cutting through a large forest. There is a yellow house in the middle
After long last, I am drawing maps again!

Across the Universe 1983. It's a screen shot of the character walking down a path, a path cut with lots of trees. There is a black bar with "Loading..." written over top the character.
Adding in a proper loading screen for my RPG to make it ready for demo release at the end of this month! Only a few more days!

The big thing keeping from getting this demo out is finishing the music but I've been working in the melody mines these last couple weeks and some songs are coming out very nicely!

A screenshot of Across the Universe 1983. Sam stands before a man with orange hair standing in a lumber yard. There's a few trees at the edge of the screenshot and a building to the right with a path striking through the middle of the picture. A textbox displays: "You thinkin' 'bout checking out that Stetman farm? What's got you so curious?"
The same screenshot as before but the font in the text box has a thicker look.
Before and after! I redid my font to improve readability. I might make it an option in case people prefer the thinner next.

Over this last week I've been working on alternative battle start SFX and added a new battle BGM.

After long last, I have written my shader for all of the colours in the NES palette so that all of them are effected by its retro fade hues

Being at the end of a demo cycle, most of what I need to do now is create & finish songs. Been struggling with this tune over the last couple days. It's grown on me but at the same time it sounds like something Ringo Starr would think is brilliant

I wish to get the demo out before April so I cut an optional area and put blockades down to keep the player OUT.

I extended my autowin feature so that after it happens a few times, the game doesn't even switch to the battle screen! It handles the victory on the field!
I had to reconfigure how the game loads battles to do it but it came out good!

My RPG has several features to mitigate annoying weaker enemy battles, but how about another one? If the player's strength is too high, the battle auto-wins!

A screenshot for Across the Universe 1983. Sam stands before a man with red hair. They are in a lumber yard. He says "You thinkin' 'bout checking out that Stetman farm? What's got you so curious?"
The new sound system has been fully implemented. I need to refine sound levels but the hard part is done and this demo is one big step closer to completion.

How did I fix my banding issues? Emulating the NES’ sound format, I split my songs into 4 channels where any SFX interrupts an instrument. In this vid, the lead melody goes quiet while the text bleep plays, then comes back at the end.

Last week I finished a playthrough of my demo and the game's gone from functional to ✨ FUN ✨. I still have work to do (this last week I've been working on sound effects), but it's getting close to showtime!
#MadeWithGodot #JRPG #ScreenshotSaturday #Boundlike
Added two features: people defeated at the end of battle still get experience (with a penalty) and if you beat some enemies and then run away, the party still gets experience (but no money).

Across the Universe 1983. Sam, a red-haired girl, stands in the middle of a big room with a blue carpet. Books stack the sides.
A battle. There's a floating portrait, a fireplace, and a gremlin holding a large crystal. The text box above says "wiped out! Everything fades to black..." The bottom was a status box for Sam and Tab, both boxless and their HP counts at zero.
I was worried my game wasn't hard enough.

Currently fixing up the last dungeon the demo. Made the enemies too strong so I had to run away from a fight!

Been working on a surreal dungeon and it's hard coming up for weird things to read on signs.

Across the Universe 1983. Sam, a red-headed teenage girl, stands before a sign that reads "The O'Dwyer's (AKA, Grandpa & Grandma)"
Across the Universe 1983. Sam is in a house talking to an old man. The textbox: "Oh... Sam... hi..."
In Across the Universe 1983, you can visit your grandparents!
NOTE: They are not enthusiastic about it.

These Eagles are very evasive so while many attacks are depowered to a WHIFF (which cuts most of the damage), some are downgraded to an abject MISS, negating all damage.
