Time flies. Spooklight Paradise is still very much alive. It's been hard work to set the foundation for a really cool game that will hopefully bring joy to many players out there once it is finished. 2020 will be a crucial year for us and the development process.

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

April update: We are currently working on improving our financial situation. The goal is to hire some talented developers and designers in 2019 to boost the progress and to meet future deadlines.

We have finally concluded the first stage in our AI development! To make our dialogue and interaction systems work smoothly, we will need to create massive content during the next months.

We haven't forgotten about the blog and roadmap, but dev > marketing for now :-)

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

Great progress on our AI core systems! First tests show that our AI has the potential to bring interaction with NPCs in 2D RPGs to the next level.

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

The code architecture update of our major systems like inventory, crafting, physics and others is about to be completed. Next goal: First parts of our AI systems 😃

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

Just finished a major iteration of our inventory system, which has become quite powerful and adaptable by now.

Our first update in 2018. You don't see much from us, because we're working more in the background atm. Nonetheless, we want to tell you what's going on 🙂

You didn't hear much from us lately. That's because we're currently preparing for the next weeks, which will be an intense phase of development.

We'll post updates very soon.

@The_Urban_tale Looks really cool!

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

Today, we want to share with you which games influenced our game design.
But there were also movies, series and books involved 😃

Sit! Give paw! Some prototyped animations for our cute little pet dog.

Finding and training pets will be a really fun thing to do in Spooklight Paradise. Cuteness overload!

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

Our blog is almost ready, and we can finally give you more info on the game. All that's left is a nice title logo. Time to brainstorm 😃

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

Trying our various objects for our huge open-world desert. Also working on the first animals.

Now we got some pixelated water reflections thanks to a pixelate shader by @unity3d.

Animating horses is a hard task, but we're making progress. What do you think?

@tiotrezivizu Yes, this will be the next thing to try. But we're not familiar with shaders yet 😃 Thank you!

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

Experimenting with water shaders in #unity3d today. Doesn't look too shabby, but we're not sure if it fits the style. #indiedev #pixelart

[Spooklight Paradise @sl_paradise]

Grass in the desert. Still very basic, but the tile transitions are more interesting now with our new tileset.
