spamming the link one last time for today after replying to a few people ...

A wishlist would be highly appreciated

(I worked on this for quite some time, I know I am annoying but ... bleh)

@Berna7224 Hopefully releasing in February, but I'm working on a story driven game about a fox mother taking care of her cubs.

Each cub has its own personality and they learn from your behavior as you hunt for food, play with them, go for a swim, travel and more.

@gelius__ Currently working on a game about raising fox cubs, playing mini games with them, watching them learn from your behavior as you hunt, fish, travel and more - all to build memories that last time itself.

@razzaq94 Depends on what you mean with bad habits.
But they copy a lot - jumping while travelling, constantly running in circles, recklessly going after prey or sneaking up to it etc

Understory is a little game about raising your little cubs, playing minigames with them, watch them learn from your behavior and build memories that surpass time itself.

still so much to do ... but not today and not tomorrow.
Still roughly 800 UI Frames to draw,
the game hardly has any music right now (some royalty free music, some is made by myself)
Sounds are still missing
Collectibles have no model yet

But ... I am more than hyped!

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

@fridaypit that is something I did consider, but am very indecisive about so far.
The personality that they are given in the beginning already influences their mini-game behavior and I don't want the mechanics to be too much spaghetti

@piworld_game The entire UI is hand drawn (Well, still some placeholders in the video) :D

But nope, they don't pick up bad habits - they will mock you for it though

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

@NogitsuneGurl both :D

If you hunt a lot of mice, they will start hunting them on their own as well.
If you approach prey slowly, that's how they will do that too.

Also, if you jump a lot while travelling, they will also adapt :D

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

Had to make a twitter version of the video ...
Wishlisting and sharing would be highly appreciated

Dude, I just launched the steam site quickly so I can actually launch my game in order to record footage for the announcement trailer (Hard linked to steam due to achievements) ...

HOW?!?!?!

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

With the steam page being live, I will soon need testers.

Unfortunately, this will also come with an NDA ...

I don't want the entire game copied.

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

Everything is set up.
Time to record and cut the announcement trailer this evening and then the steam page goes live.

If everything works out, I have about 4 months to annoy the shit out of everyone to make sure people know about it, finish the game and make a demo

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

Anyone ever considered that Nintendo could release majora's mask as a dlc ...?
Just randomly throwing it out there

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

Welp, you know what they say...

It's way too late to stop...

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

time to just mindlessly scribble more UI elements

[thiefbug @thiefbug]

like genuinely - tomorrow is the only day this week that possibly has a chance of me finally getting somewhere with the steam page.

Wednesday is full to the brim,
Thursday as well,
and don't get me started on the weekend
