I'm not dead, nor is the game ...

... but it was pining for the fjords for some time. After doing the unthinkably stupid and upgrading VRTK and Unity nothing worked anymore.

added... but it was pining for the fjords for some time. After doing the unthinkably stupid and upgrading VRTK and Unity nothing worked anymore. Paying-Work and other stuff kept me from fixing the game, so the source code was rotting away on my hard drive. Well .. I took a look at the code again, decided that I would need to scale down my goals and rewrite some (a lot) of code. Basically, the only part that stays, apart from most assets, is the level generator. I am currently rewriting the AI (which, IMO, wasn't bad per se ... but the code wasn't flexible enough resulting in some awefull spaghetti code when adding new types of monsters), and I will also rewrite the parts controlling how you interact with objects, and of course the magic system. The overarching story I wanted to tell will have to wait too, as real life constraint makes it impossile for me to work constantly on the game ... thus the renaming (which isn't yet mirrored in the banner, sorry) "YARL" ... as in "Yet Another Rogue Like". SkyrimVR is releasing tomorow, Karnage Chronicle is amazing, and Vanishing Realms is still available, so in case you need a good Hack Slash dungeon crawler, get one of those! They really are great! YARL will see the light of day.. but it might be some time. until then ... cya :) /me heads back to his editor
