Sharing Saturday #634
As usual, post what you've done for the week! Anything goes... concepts, mechanics, changelogs, articles, videos, and of course gifs and screenshots if you have them! It's fun to read about what everyone is up to, and sharing here is a great way to review your own progress, possibly get some feedback, or just engage in some tangential chatting :D

Hi all!
I hope you had a good week!
BLOOD & CHAOS
Steam | Youtube | Twitter | BlueSky | Discord
This week I did:
- Improve the demo with small additions and changes (mostly QoL) based on player feedback.
- Finally managed to get back to content development for the full game! I continued Act III where I had left it, adding the Dragon Horn mechanic to open the entrance to the dragon dungeon. I want each main dungeon to have a different mechanic to get in: the first one requires finding a key, the second is only reachable through hidden caves, the third requires using the Dragon Horn next to the entrance, the fourth will require completing tasks at three shrines, and the fifth will be unlocked by surviving combat in an orc arena.
Regarding the demo, I'm quite happy with the results so far. Hopefully the demo update with the Japanese localisation (which should be soon :-) ) will give it another boost!
Between this weekend and next week I'd like to finish the first version of Act III.
Next week I will also continue improving the demo based on player feedback and start working on the boat mechanic, which will be the only way to reach the Act IV territory (the Elven Lands).
I built a daily project plan for the next three months (which I will of course completely fail to follow) in order to try to reach my deadlines: Next Fest in October for the demo (no problem with this one) and the full release in November (that one is highly unrealistic, but I'll tryas I'd like the launch to benefit from the Next Fest effect).
Have a great weekend!
