Hey thanks for sharing this on your page! Hopefully shouldn't be too much longer until it's finished.

so as long as it's not guaranteed or common I won't waste too much time on it. Not much else to share other than that, just crossing my fingers these last few issues won't take much longer. Have a good week everyone! [2/2]

Sorry for completely missing the weekly update -- the HUD fade syncing issue is fixed, but I'm still having trouble with some of the money digits. Still working on the dialogue issue, and I did have the game crash randomly at one point but haven't been able to replicate it, [1/2]

I'll keep you all posted with these last few glitches, because once they're fixed 1.0 should be ready for release. As always, thank you all for your patience and have a good rest of your week! [6/6]

All I can say now is the total number of issues is still getting smaller by the day, and while fixing one issue with the HUD may cause other issues with the HUD, it's very unlikely that some other part of the mod will break at this point and cause another significant delay. [5/6]

19.06.2025 03:19 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

vice versa, like seen in Jeff's bakery dialogue from yesterday's video. These last "two" bugs with the HUD and dialogue are the only ones I'm running into right now, and like we're seeing with the HUD fade desync a few more will likely pop up before they're fully fixed. [4/6]

19.06.2025 03:19 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

and which bytes do something else. I have it mostly figured out which is why some textboxes work perfectly fine, but there's still a piece missing since other textboxes will fall apart at a certain point when character data is read as non-character data, or [3/6]

19.06.2025 03:19 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

that I haven't figured out yet. The TL;DR is that there's a lot of data mixed in with each set of dialogue that doesn't represent an actual character (letters, numbers, symbols, etc.), and this data affects which bytes are read as characters to be loaded into the textbox [2/6]

Weekly rando update -- I fixed the issue shown yesterday where the clock hands freeze during tool animations on some screens, but it's causing the fade in / fade out to desync. I also looked into the dialogue issues and it seems like there's a small part of the formatting [1/6]

Another short teaser video to show off the bugs I'm running into. At this point it's mostly just the HUD and some textboxes that aren't working perfectly, but as you can see it's very close. Hopefully I can share more during the standard weekly update tomorrow

It definitely took me a long time to get used to, even more than pausing to take out each item lol. Hopefully it'll be ready soon!

No music restart on loading screens* not "no music loop" lol

Progress update is the same as last week, but here's a short teaser video of some of the bug fixes and other features I haven't shown yet.

-TV text requires a C input to trigger
-No music loop
-Working HUD fade
-Scaled item growth for random crops (Idea courtesy of @demoplaysgames.bsky.social)

Weekly rando update -- I don't have much to share, haven't made as much progress this week because of the Switch 2 launch + being generally busy at work. I can say I've fixed more bugs than I've found, so we're still getting closer to the 1.0 release. Have a good week everyone!

Quick weekly rando update: all the app programming is done so now -the only thing left- is fixing issues with the in-game mods. I don't have an itemized list, I've just been playing until I encounter one then fixing it, but 1.0 should be ready very very soon๐Ÿ‘€

Happy Wednesday everyone, here's the weekly rando update

01.05.2025 03:23 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 6    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Quick weekly rando update since I'm moving them to Wednesday nights now, not much to add other than I'm still working on updating the QoL functions. I should have more to share next Wednesday. As always, thank you all for your patience๐Ÿ™

Another short weekly update: I have all of the flags done and am working on the remaining QoL functions now -- as a side note my weekend is Tue-Wed now, so I'll be moving the weekly updates to Wednesday night since that's when the bulk of each week's work will be done

Quick weekly update: ran into a lot of bugs as usual but the recipe flag reads are finished and the key items shouldn't take much longer, other than that everything is the same as last week's post
