[DEVLOG] The Code Of Crystals - Weeks 7/8/9 (Phantasia Game Jam 2024)

Hello everyone! It’s Rain, here again with another devlog for Project: Maselosia, my project for Phantasia Game Jam 2024.

A few words to open the devlog?

We have a logo and an official title!!

Devlogs will be every two-weeks until the end of the game jam.

My arm wasn't hurt, in the end.

Asks are open, whether it’s for me or game characters!

Let’s start with this week’s in-progress screenshot!

Might as well show off the second protagonist

Game Art

We're reaching the end, guys! All we need are a few CGs and one character sprite (not counting the main menu and game menu art) and the first chapter of The Code of Crystals will be done!

Writing

Writing is entirely done! I know it has to be edited and proofread, but the main bulk is finished.

Audio

Finding music and implementing it in the game is also done! All that's left are a couple sound effects.

Puzzles

The last puzzle is done! As well as two extra choice-based scenes, one of which can lead to a game over.

UI & Menus

At this rate these will be the last things I focus on, as it's purely cosmetic.

Final thoughts

My work for this game has been very inconsistent due to health issues and me leaving my parents apartment to go back home.

It won't be consistent for the two next weeks either, as I am traveling again, but if I am able to follow my plans only details will be left to fine tune when I come back. That and game/main menus.

I'm happy with how the game looks and feels so far!

If possible I would like this first chapter to be done and ready to be released in two weeks. This is not a hard deadline, like October 31st, but a soft deadline.

That is all I had to share! Thank you all for reading, have the loveliest of weeks, and be ready for the next update ✨

The Code of Crystals is a is a fantasy puzzle game where two shapeshifters try to escape a cult and go back to their normal lives. According to the Phantasia Game Jam rules, chapter one will be released before October 31st and will be available for download on itch.io!
