v14 Beta Update 🐛 (Patreon)

Hey yall, it's been quite a long time since I've gone ahead and given you all an update, so I figured I'd do so now! 🐛

So, where are we? What's going on? 🐛Well, if you're not in the know, v14's beta started nearly 3 weeks ago? 4? has it been a month? time does not exist.It's a closed beta. Meaning the people for the beta were hand selected by my team and I. Patrons were not invited to this beta in particular because we had a lot of issues with bad actors leaking the game and that's something I want to avoid at all costs. Future versions may have more opportunities, but for this one I just decided to close it.

How's the beta going?

theyre like 95% very minor and non game breaking, but a bug is a bug. Thankfully I've gotten some help with them this time. But yeah, so many. many many. typos, bugs, tileset issues, battle errors. and ofc there's always a rogue softlock here and there. Currently we're fighting a softlock that only happens sometimes and the cause has not yet been found. fun.

As for actual beta progress, actually, like 70-80% of people are already done with both Paragon and Renegade. The remaining have been going at a slower pace, which is really good because we can push fixes out and they can go through them again and see if the fix... yknow, actually fixed it.

here's some anecdote(s) I found heartwarming 🐛

But yeah, even if we're almost done with all our playthroughs, there's still NG+ (and boy are there NG+ events this time), and there's still a laundry list of bugs that must be fixed before we even think about release. Needless to say I would not expect a release this month. Next month, MAYBE. May-be. I truly don't know.

Before I leave you off again, allow me to drop an abstract screenshot that not even people in the Beta have seen, as I have just created this the other night.🐛

Until next time, thank you so much for supporting me! Have a wretched rest of your week >:)
