World's Greatest Author is OUT NOW!

You can finally become the best author in the world!

I'm so glad to announce that the game is now released! It took me way longer than I imagined to build it, but I'm so proud of the result. The game has come a long way since the demo release, and I've incorporated a lot of feedback I've been given based on it.

I have:

  • Added options to adjust the brightness and color.

  • Toned down the vertical lines that made everything look rotten.

  • Made the "retreat" system more clear.

  • Added a way to see the plots and stars available at every level.

  • Created a scrollable shelf for your written books.

  • Made it possible to peek at the retreat board (skill tree) without traveling.

  • Added a feature where you can type on your own keyboard to write books. You no longer need to click on them with your mouse.

  • Fixed the currency bug and adjusted the game to use delta time.

  • Added a button for full screen in the options menu.

  • Added a language picker at the very beginning, if you don't have a save file.

Your feedback has been SO VALUABLE, and I can't thank you enough!

The game is 15% off now, and I hope you'll enjoy the full release.

Also, a big thanks to Fablefly Music who created the wonderful soundtrack.
