The Outfit and Monster Name Poll (Patreon)

First and foremost, please take a moment to complete this three question survey. All three questions are important. The outfit question in particular will impact which new outfit makes it into the game (although, there will still be one more poll of the top 4 outfits down the line).

As for game progress, I know I've been a bit silent over the past few days. I've been busting my ass to get everything in order at my job to transition to the next stage in this game development process. I won't bore you with the specifics, but things are going well. I will have A LOT more development time in two weeks, and that is 100% guaranteed at this point. The last year taught me that if I want to produce Aylia's Story in our lifetimes, I need more than 5 hours a week. It is just too frustrating to move at a snail's pace all the time. So, we'll soon see how true part-time development works out. This should be a really good indicator of what you can expect from YT Gaming going forward. It is not full time yet, but it will be way more time than I've had over the past year.

With that in mind, my plan for the first week of part time development is to finish up the remaining pieces of the chapter 1 battles (input CGs, name that monster, etc.) and then send it off to Balduindrake to test. While he is testing, I'll finish up the final third of chapter 1 and send it off for proofreading/editing. Then, you guys will get it--finally. I really hope you like it, I know you've waited long enough.

I'm already well into chapter 2 also. I'm even more excited about chapter 2 than chapter 1 because you'll start to see your decisions really take effect. Plus, you get to visit two new cities! Escala maps are almost ready to go, but Trellion still needs work. My goal (and NO this is not a release date) is mid-to-late June for Chapter 2. I should be full time by then and moving right along. Also, in reference to the poll question, I anticipate releasing Hunter's Quest shortly after Chapter 1 (late April/early May).

If I don't post much in the next few days, it is because I am putting in 55-60 hours a week right now to setup guides and organize stuff for my job. It sucks, but I am not one who would ever just leave my employer hanging. So, I'm doing everything I can to ease the transition for them. Thanks for understanding!
