Good evening folks!

Season Island has been updated once more! But this time, it's...different?

Because of the story told in Season Island, it was very difficult to make an RPG that made sense... For one, Spike isn't one to fight creatures he encounters in the wild. Plus, there's no "dying" in the story, so having health mechanics didn't make a lot of sense either...

I could've simply removed battles from the RPG, but that would remove a lot of other mechanics along the way, like healing items, armor and bosses. In other words, it would be like turning fruit punch into distilled water. I don't sell distilled water!!

And then, it clicked.

I rebuilt the game from scratch. I had to delete code, rewrite code, remove assets, add new assets, rethink gameplay, rewrite some of the story...

I turned Season Island into a fully fledged point & click visual novel!

I managed not only to finish chapter 1 (Spring's paradise) but I also managed to plan ahead the rest of the entire game. This genre suits Season Island much better!

It features funny interactions and puzzles that involve more than "click on this with that". Plus, each character gets more screen time thanks to the visual novel portions of the game.

It's safe to call this an..."action point & click visual novel adventure"! But "Season Island" is easier to remember, so call it that.



The game also looks much better now! puffinu drew most of the backgrounds and talksprites! So if you see something VERY pretty in the game, she probably drew it.

Even the items look amazing!! katalith made the sprites for those! In fact, she's working on the item sprites for chapter 2, and they look fantastic.

Me? I drew Spike! Among other things.



Special thanks to the testers for helping me improve the user experience. As a result, the user can experience a lot of fun.

tldr;... We're making a lot of progress on Season Island!

But... How much is left to do to complete the game?

What is "???" you might wonder... Well, it's a pretty big game. That's all I'm gonna say for now!

Thank you for reading! And, if you've played the new demo...thank you for playing it! It means a lot to me!

I'm very excited to show you what's to come in the game. We're working hard to make this a most excellent adventure!
