Creatrix Games is more indie than ever! Go, underdog!!
The project has slowed to a crawl, unfortunately, because I had to backtrack and am reworking a lot of code from scratch. So, this has destroyed our milestone schedule, and as a result I am not getting any more funding until functionality is back to the point where our previous milestone left off. The sucky part is that much of the code done previously was not viable in terms of being a basis for building upon, so I can only salvage small parts of it. The rest goes in the trash.
The real wrench in the works here is that I still need to eat. (Why?! Why must my mammalian metabolism demand daily fuel?!) I’ve had to divert most of my attention to other projects in order to not starve, lose my house, and become a hobo. This vicious cycle has left me with almost no time to work on Lila Dreams, although it has not drained any of my determination. It just means the game is going to be released a lot later than any of us had ever wanted. Still, I’d rather release late than never!
The good news is that there is running code and a solid, new technical architecture, so at least I have confidence that I can actually get it all put back together eventually. As with many things in life, it comes down to simply finding the hours in each day to get something accomplished.
I do foresee income from my other ventures reaching a point where I can get back to 80% of my time being spent on Lila Dreams, so nobody had better start nay-saying!
There’s a bright future for this project. It’s still gonna be awesome.
