Well, that's a way to start off the update post! Just put the juicy details up front and center! Happy new year, everyone!

Want more juicy details? Well, in case you couldn't tell from this roadmap alone, the NPCs are done! Well, mostly... some of them do need just a few more lines of dialogue to spice things up. However, their schedules, any quests they give, and the vast majority of their dialogue are all completely programmed and inside of the game. Huzzah! My initial goal was to finish that in 5 months, but I managed to get it done in under 2 months and before the end of 2023. Whew.

With all the motivation in the world that I have right now, above is the roadmap for 2024. I feel I've given myself great goals and deadlines for everything and I'm confident I'll be able to deliver on them! You can expect a full release of the game, barring any crazy events, at some point in 2025.

I don't have as much to talk about this time around, partly because I'm letting the roadmap do the talking for me and partly because the last update wasn't too long ago, but I will say I'm also working on getting a new website up and will update you all again as soon as that goes live. I also want to mention that after the tileset swap is done, screenshots for the game will be made available here and I'll be creating forum threads on a few different sites for God's Disdain. Hopefully, the Steam page will be up not long after that!

I'm really excited to share my game I've been working on for so long with all of you, and I'm hoping that you'll enjoy what you see. 2024 is going to be awesome!
