Another small teaser for WiccaCraft. This shows someone going from (slightly improved) startscreen into game and doing the first small quest from before.

[Elementallis - OUT NOW! @elementallis]

Hi, we're making a top-down adventure where you use the elements to solve puzzles and fight

Here is the 1st classroom to visit. But the teachers in Tiefenwald cannot give lessons all the day long, so usually only one of four classrooms is ready for your magical lessons.

When filling the empty rooms of Tiefenwald, I need a ton of pictures so they do not all look the same. To reduce workload I try to re-use some parts like I did with this partly visible showcase.
What do you think?

Magical rites do not only require plants but also other items. Sometimes the teachers in Tiefenwald will provide them. They are stored inside your box in the storage room. Click them to put them in your inventory.

I 've been out for 2 weeks being sick but now I can provide you with another screenshot: The garden of Tiefenwald. You can grow your ingredients for your magical rites yourself. They need 30 days though.

Even a magical school needs some books - so I added them. Most will be acquired during lessons but some will appear only after certain events you can take part at. You can open them and read them.

Last but not least: While Ink was usefull for dialogues, I had to use plain text files for things like buttons. Structure in file system is the same though.
But thats all about my localization attempt. :)

[H.A.R.D.Games @HARDGam44527072]

I decided to localize with Ink like this: In the Ink-folder are folders for each type of Ink-based text (1). The languages are located below (2). With a script I grap the actual file to display ingame.

Today I'm showing off some gameplay from the demo for Bzzzt by @ko_dll! This charming precision platformer features gorgeous pixel art and banging beats. Tons of potential! I highly recommend you go wishlist this.

@radnyx B on this neutral background.
Not sure how it will look ingame with different environment and different scale (visbility of details).

[H.A.R.D.Games @HARDGam44527072]

If you think too late about localization, you will either having to invest lots of time - or not be able to do so losing potential players. I tried using Inky for that purpose. Next week more about that.

This is the classroom of Green Leaf Fairy, one of the teachers at Tiefenwald.
I am rather untalented in drawing people. What was your experience hiring (pixel)artists from fiverr and alike, if you did?

This time a bit more than a screenshot. Every witch has to adapt to the natural flow, so certain tasks can only be done at a certain phase of a day.

My (hopefully) weekly update on thursdays: This is the 'room' stairs of floor 1. It was marked on the map I had shown last week.
The appearane of the environment will change with game progress.

This is the map of the 1st floor of the magical school of Tiefenwald. It corresponds to the ingame backgrounds and features a short description of the room when hovering over. An important room can be highlighted at the beginning.

Another sign of life. I am still working on this game. I have choosen the same view so that progress is better visible than by selecting a random pic.
Hopefully I will post more this year. Cheers!

Revolutionary insight: The more time you cut back on social media the more time you have to finish your indie-game. 😮😅

[H.A.R.D.Games @HARDGam44527072]

@LittleGhost2021 I would add an ingame pay-to-win shop for the mobile game.

[H.A.R.D.Games @HARDGam44527072]

A life sign. The project is still in progress. I am just a lazy and incompetent boon. :)
