The first build of Once Ever After is up for $10 patrons right now! Since this is a larger chunk of gameplay than usual, the process isn't moving as quickly, so I'm not sure exactly how it will go. People will keep giving feedback, I'll keep working on it, and hopefully in the end this will be another side project everyone can enjoy.

Aside from that, I'm working on editing a novel. That wasn't my original plan, but this book has the interest of a moderately big name in self-published fantasy and I don't want to miss a rare opportunity to reach more people. Will update you guys if that develops.

I go through a pretty predictable cycle: creating stuff makes me happy, then doing market research makes me depressed. I'm getting through the second phase of that cycle at the moment, so I hope to be able to dive back into pure creation soon.

I wonder if there's a cheerleading pom-pom emoji...

Ganbatte, Sierra! (*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑

lol probably a placeholder, but in Wolf Blight with Wilhelm and Ulfina, I encountered a wolf with an explanation mark over his head. The "!" persisted through combat, even though the wold died on round 1. Wolfbite for the win!

sierralee

Regardless, I appreciate the encouragement.

sierralee

I'm actually a bit uncertain about what you experienced here. If the wolf battler had an exclamation mark, then I'm puzzled. If it was the sprite in the background, the screen gets frozen when the battle starts.

Leveler All

did you post any screen of this? or samples? you are doing a few projects at the time and i got lost.

I feel like it's been a while since you last talked about the next TLS update. Is it coming, or has it been pushed down the priority list by these other projects?

sierralee

It was 100% delayed until the TLS Steam release, due to necessary edits for that, then pushed somewhat lower by other work. Writing not so much, but Once Ever After uses the same RPG parts of my brain.

Leveler All

oh right, the red ridding, if i recall is a collab right? also link don't work, but i can find it by name on steam.

Darthjake

I'm pretty sure it was the wolf battler, but it may have just been near it, but the screen did not freeze for me. I killed the wolf right away because it had the green claws.

Darthjake

okay the "!" was in front of the wolf battler, I have it saved in Paint if you want me to send it to you..

Darthjake

Okay that pack of 3 fluffs sucks!

sierralee

If you already saved it, sure, send it to me.

sierralee

It's not a true collaboration, but I'm commissioning just one artist for everything.

sierralee

Haha, thanks for the feedback. I'd suggest putting OEA comments in the other thread, though.

Leveler All

aa got it, i know the art from the other game, the combat system they use is nice, ill waith to see wwhat you come up with :D

DankPotatoes

I would be lying if i said i wasn't dissapointed. I Hope Once Ever After succeeds for your sake Sierra, but TLS is pretty much what i'm here for

sierralee

That's fair and I encourage patrons to be open about concerns or complaints. To function creatively I need to work on more than one thing, but I hope in the long term you feel that I make it clear that TLS remains one of my top priorities overall.
