It's been a long time since I've posted any sort of meaningful update topic.

Here's what's been done recently:

New Intro Sequence / Title Screen

looks nice as hell boy

New Text
As you may have noticed (nobody noticed) I'm changing the font of the quest. This involves entirely rewriting all 900+ strings that were already present in the game.
Things are generally the same but this is also a nice opportunity up update jokes that are literally like 8 years old and everything's going along pretty swell.
The new font looks a lot nicer and it fits more text on 2 lines than the old font did on 3, it's worth the incredible amount of work!
Along with this comes a lot more nice touches too, such as multiple lines of NPC dialogue in a lot more places than previously.

Oval Island
Oval Island was redone and I have a map of it for yall

Rectangle Country
The main overworld was getting pretty hideously outdated so I went through and cleaned up a lot of the details on it and it looks way better now. I don't have a comparison or even a map of the new one handy but take my word on it.

Level 1 - Stonelite Chapel
I can't remember if I ever posted this information, but level 1 has been redone and is finished. It's basically the same level it always has been but a lot better looking/flowing. Finished it last year, again no screens handy, sorry!

Level 4 - Soul Portal
Level 4 is also being redone in the same way Level 1 was. It's also been renamed to Soul Hotel to fit the theme/lore better. It's about halfway done right now.

Future Redos
Planning on also remaking Circle Cemetery, Rhombus Mountain, Trapezoid Skygarden, Icosagon Island, Level 2 - Temple of Fish Lord, & Level 3 - Rhombus Volcano in the same vein as the other things that've been remade.
Almost the entire quest!!!! But it's okay because I can do this a lot faster than creating new content and it's worth it in the end to deliver the best game experience possible.

Lists For Your Viewing Pleasure
Bolded area names are complete for their likely final version, non-bolded ones are not. Areas with an asterisk (*) have a completed version but are scheduled to be redone. Italicized area names are near-completion or currently being worked on as of this post date.

This is definitely worth keeping an eye on, and it's looking really good. It looks and sounds like it'll be a very polished game. I also really like the classic greyscale GB look.

And don't feel bad about not working on it in a while, I've been working on Zelda-TD for.. 12 years this month! :P
