I've reached a point where I need more art for #DistantTravelsVN than I can afford at the moment. While I will save it all on my own, eventually, I figured I'd open up a Ko-fi for anyone who wants to help. Any tips go directly towards art for the game.

#DistantTravelsVN 0.7 is now on itch! This is not a story update, it's a complete sprite rework by @SirDrakes and features new songs by @camazule as well as a complete code rewrite to add a bunch of features and fix some older issues.

I've really been wanting to work more on DT recently, and I have. Just no long sessions like I used to, but many many small sessions. Working halftime might have screwed up my economy, but it's saved my health and I feel the energy coming back more and more! 😀

Recently set up a semi-private discord server with the help of a friend. He made a bot that'll help me track tasks solidly with categories and it'll keep it in discord where I check daily. Thinking of inviting those who ask and sharing my VN-Dev resources there 🤔

I've been working on a few other Ren'py projects that friends are creating, and it's been very refreshing. I enjoy the Ren'py part a lot and coding/editing has really motivated my own work drive for my own project. It gives more energy than I expected.

Borrowing ideas from friends. I'm thinking about implementing a Fanart gallery section to the game, if you'd be ok with having your art featured in a gallery in #DistantTravelsVN please give me a poke!

And... I'm back to full DT Development. It was a nice break! Reply with a character or part of something new (UI, character etc) you'd like to see and I'll pick and post three teasers.

I wouldn't say so myself, but I've been told so. I keep being told I have a narrator voice, but only when someone hears my "at work voice". 🤔

Finished up my VN-Work break (aka Baldurs Gate 3). I loved every ending I got, especially Karlach's ending. Just like finishing the game, it was perfectly bittersweet. (the ending I got for her, that is*)

I'm designing the sprite viewer for DT and @SirDrakes64 pointed out that I might be making it too restricted. Should I make it so that you can create impossible (and broken) combinations in it, or just modular combinations that don't look broken?

Face reveal when? :p — What do you mean? It's in my sticky tweet! Jokes aside, it's sometimes comfortable being semi-anonymous, so I think I'll stick like this for the time being!

The Distant Travels Soundtrack by @camazule is making it's way to YouTube! Give it a listen if you haven't already, the songs really pop when you listen to them, both with or without the VN context!

The opening Distant Travels theme is now up on my Youtube, you should absolutely go check it out! I'll be uploading the rest of the album over the next couple weeks, so look forward to more songs soon (including some not even in the game yet!)

Yup, finally way less obscure android build issues for all the newbies. Awesome!

Landed a series of commits this weekend that update Ren'Py's android support so it works with (and requires) a modern JVM. No more needing to keep around an ancient version.

It should probably be more worrisome that my weekend's turned into Drinking -> Gamedev -> Penis, but it's not every weekend so perhaps it's fine? 🤔

The "are you xxx's type" bingo was great. Had a lot of fun learning about you all. If you haven't done one yet, you should. I almost considered doing a second one, but any more risque and I'll regret it lol

Does anyone else ever just want to complain about life without getting DMs asking if they're alright? Life sucks, most of the time. I want to be angry about it for a bit.

Doing a side project with @SirDrakes64 this year as well, just like Steadfast last year. This one's looking more humorous at this stage, though. Can't wait to delve deeper into this.

Cheese warning: You ever get that feel when you listen to a good song or get stuck in a certain mood where your heart just ..."feels" more? If I were to describe it it's like a "flow". Full focus. For me, when I get into that mood I can write or work on something for hours.

Was so motivated to write today after work, had this awesome inspiration, only to get hit by one of the worst migraines of my life. 🥲 Oh well, it made it into notes at least. Sorry, just wanted to complain loudly.
