Monthly Dev Log #12

First, let's talk about the most important and exciting thing from last month: We published our very first demo! 🔥​🥳​🎉​

We're super grateful for all the great feedback and support we've received! Thank you so much! 🧡​🥰​🙏​

Most of our work was focused on finishing the demo on time, but we also took on a couple of side quests. So here's what we've been up to:

🎮 Gameplay

• Finished the level design for demo islands 🏝️

🎨 Art

• Created the set dressing for the onboarding islands

• Updated the Steam main and demo pages (they’re now ✨ extra pretty! ✨)

• Worked on two new facial expressions for Milo

• Added new custom Discord emotes

🖥️ Programming

• Set up a localization system 🗣️

• Implemented an options menu

• Added a twitch integration (It’s fun to see many streamers using this with their communities 🤗)

• Fixed a looot of bugs to prepare for the demo release (thanks to our community for the amazing help with playtesting! 🥰)

🎶 Audio

• Fixed some sound issues in the demo

• Created a soundtrack for the trailer 🎹🎵

• Recorded the team's singing voices to create even cooler soundtracks (thanks to our sound designer for having so much patience with us, as most of us don’t have any singing experience 😅🥰)

🎞️ Other

• Translated the demo into a total of nine languages

• Published a ✨ new trailer ✨ for the demo release (Have you seen it yet?)

We wish everyone a wonderful start to the week! 🥰​🌞​🍦
