Hello again everyone, we’re overdue for another update on The Chaser’s Voyage, so we hope you’re ready!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1) Everything’s looking super good. Unlike the rest of the game, the tutorial is a set string of events. This gave us more freedom to actually tell a more concrete narrative, which we have fully capitalized on. We’re still steadily making progress on getting everything to be playable. There’s just a few more options that are unique to the tutorial that we need to finish up.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2) New voice lines were recorded, edited, and implemented.<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0 Meet Argi, she’ll be showing you the ropes as the new tutorial character.<\/p>\n

We took one of the client characters (done by the super talented Santi Leigh<\/a>) and made a lot of modifications to get a new Nygothan character. She’s a super cheery Nygothan and is pretty excited to teach you how to play the game. I sure hope nothing bad happens to her! We ended up putting a lot more work into her than we initially planned. Originally, our tutorial character was just a simple recolor of one of our client characters. But as Argi got more of a character, we felt she needed a more unique appearance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4) We’ve implemented boss stops for both the player’s ship and the enemy pirates and bounty hunters. At first, we wanted to keep things relatively simple. A simple sound effect over a brief pause in the action, but it kinda looked too much like the game hanging up. So, we added in some hit animations and decided to do something a little extra for when the player dies. Take a look:<\/p>\n

It looks really good when playing! Hopefully we’ll get to show you soon.<\/p>\n
