  Intravenous devlog #3!

  Hey everyone! I've just uploaded the third devlog for my new game 'Intravenous': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wVa1aTaldI There I talk about various big changes to the gameplay that the game has seen since the last devlog. There's a lot to cover there, but to give you a short idea: the game now allows the player to go prone, to use their real-life mic to create noise in-game and bait enemies in! Those are just two new things the game has to offer aside from the myriad of changes mentioned in the video, so if you're interested - be sure to check it out! You can also wishlist the game on Steam now: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1486630/Intravenous/ Thank you for reading!

  'Intravenous' Steam store page now public!

  Hey everyone! This is a quick announcement to let you guys know that the Steam store page for 'Intravenous' is now public! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1486630/Intravenous/ You might notice that the art is rather rushed, or seems unfinished - that's because it is. In fact, currently I have practically no art for the game's cover, and other such things. I wasn't planning on having a Steam store page for the game this early, but I had to make one, and make it public, for something cool upcoming on Steam. :) Regardless, now you can wishlist the game on Steam, as I've seen multiple people express their wish to do so! The game's preliminary release date is set to May 21st of 2021. This is a rough estimate, and it's entirely possible the game will be finished earlier than that, or it might take more time to finish it. Regardless, the good news is the biggest chunk of work is already done. What's left now is to: 1. finish up the remaining game levels 2. work on the levels in an iterative fashion to make them better and prettier 3. finish up work-in-progress art 4. play-test the absolute hell out of the game, so that there is NO repeat of the mess that was the launch of Game Dev Studio. 5. and lastly - release it. I do hope you're excited for Intravenous - I sure am! It's very close to the stealth-action game I've always wanted to play, and it plays almost exactly how I wanted it to play! Thank you for reading, and I hope you'll love this game when it's finally out!

  Regarding future updates

  Hey everyone! I've noticed that some people were upset following the previous community post in which I talked about the new game I'm working on. They say you can't please everyone and that you shouldn't try to do so, and that is 100% correct. However I want to clarify the situation regarding future updates for Game Dev Studio so that everyone is on the same page. The first and most important question: does this mean the end of future content updates for Game Dev Studio? Most likely not. As I've stated on the GDS Discord server, and in the developer commentary I am simply burned out from working on Game Dev Studio. A bit ironic, given that this is a feature in the game itself, eh? At the time of the last big update, it was already nearly 5 years of my life put into the game. Working on a single project for that much time burns you out, whether you like it or not. The second biggest factor leading to switching my attention to working on a new game is simply due to the fact that the sales are bad. The sales always remained weak no matter how many updates I released for Game Dev Studio, no matter how much effort I put into it. Now factor in the fact that I've worked on this game for nearly 5 years in total. I am a regular person like everyone who plays Game Dev Studio and pretty much any other game, and putting food on the table is a necessity. It seemed pointless to keep making big content updates when the sales remained weak despite multiple updates that added a lot of new content, so I had to look for an alternative. This left me with two choices: find a job or start working on a new game. I chose the latter. Regardless, with either choice the amount of time I would invest in GDS would be lesser. So now that I'm working on the new game, what does it mean for Game Dev Studio? It's simple - Game Dev Studio was a passion project from the beginning, and as long as I have the ability to return to my passion projects, I always do so. I wanted to make a game dev sim that I...

  Check out the new game I'm making!

  Hey everyone! This post is different from the ones I usually make, as I usually only post update notes. In any case, the new game I'm making would not be possible without Game Dev Studio in the first place, so if you're interested - read on! 'Intravenous' is a top-down hardcore stealth/action game, with heavy emphasis on stealth. The reason for its existence, - just like with Game Dev Studio, - is I wanted to play a stealth game reminiscent of the early Splinter Cell games, but also make it have really fun combat. The idea came for it when I was working on the 'Anger Issues' mod for Game Dev Studio to showcase the modding possibilities of the game. I realized that I have everything I need to make a top-down game, and so I thought "why not?" to myself. The result is Intravenous. I've been working hard on it for the past 1.5 years, but took a break from working on it during Spring of 2019 to make more updates for Game Dev Studio. Below you'll find links to the first two devlogs for Intravenous, be sure to check them out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WA3_QtJX7yM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-36QMC0swI Please keep in mind that the game is still a work-in-progress, and that there are a lot of unfinished assets. Regardless, I hope to hear what you think of the game! I intend to release more content updates for Game Dev Studio, one of which includes a graphical overhaul, once I'm done working on Intravenous. Thanks a lot!
