@Agoraphobic I know right! haha I didn't think that was going to happen either but I am actually loving the new style.

 

@MrValenza Thank you! I'm glad you like the new graphics. Now hopefully I can make good use of them haha.

 

@boberski I would but that would be against his terms of service ut if your interested you can get them at pioneervalleygames.com

 

@Jackson Thank you! I agree they compliment the engine really well.

 

@Jumbofile That would be really awesome! I tried making one myself but mine was really basic haha I know you would make a really amazing one.

Look good man!
I also noticed you're using Kyrise's Softwood UI. I released a fix for the misaligned text not too long ago, it's in the main thread for the UI.

[dxxknight]

Thanks you!

Yeah I really love that UI it looks so nice with these graphics. Oh thank you! Saves me alot of work lol.

Hello Everyone!

 

I'm back and Veridian is still not dead haha. I took a long break since I got a new position at my job and I've been settling in as Business Intelligence/ Software Developer. Although I haven't been posting here lately I've still been working on the project when I have had time. I since have recruited 2 new team members! Which will be amazing so that I can focus on what I love which is level design and less of the Quests/Features. Although I'll still be the project lead so I'll still have my hands a little bit everywhere. Without going on and on I mainly am excited to show you guys how far we have been getting already with some screenshots! We obviously won't be showing everything but hopefully you guys like what we are doing so far!

[Kibbelz]

I like what you've done here but my only pet peeve is that some of your NPC's have names and others don't. Might be a good idea to show the name of all of these NPC's for consistency.

[dxxknight]

Agreed! The biggest reason I didn't add names on certain NPCs is just because during quests those NPCs will have an animated quest icon above their heads. This would make it look terrible because of the icon appearing over the name but I'm going to mess with it and see if I can get something to look decent. I'm currently working on reworking the player sprites to fit with the rest of the graphics a little better then I'm going to go back and finish that town with quests and NPCs and fix all the bugs I or the team find.

[Agoraphobic]

Glad you are still making games. ^___^

[dxxknight]

Thanks Agora! I'm glad to see your still around too! Always like talking to you. I also love that Kibbelz is still around because I remember awhile ago I use to always get inspired by his mapping skills.

 

Also! I'm back in discord and live right now if anyone wants to chat about Veridian!

[dxxknight]

Sorry for the double post but I got a new updated screenshot showing off the new sprite and more NPCs as we get closer and closer to done with the first area!

[dxxknight]

Hello Everyone! Sorry for not being able to post for awhile between changes in my life(Moving and New Job) and working on Veridian I can be really terrible at updating you guys. Although that will hopefully change as my long time girlfriend plans to take on becoming the Community Manager for Veridian so I can focus on making the game and she will help make sure you guys are up to date with what's going on.
