Wednesday Randomness!

Progress update! 
For the last 2 (ish...and besides getting consumed by steam sales) weeks, I was mainly working on general improvements to the police station (dialogues, random scenes to make the world make more sense) and setting up events that leads to the VR visor. Speaking of which, during Adeline's adventure, she sometimes will come across computer programs for the visor. Once she installs it, she could load up a program and play it like we play a video game. The programs are just random mini game type of stuff that I want to add to the game, but they don't really fit into the story. It can also be some random stuff my co-writer and I wrote for fun. The VR visor gives us a great opportunity to just add random things to the game. I hope you guys find it fun as well. By the way, some of the programs for the VR visor will add bonuses to Adeline's stat if you manage to "beat" them. For example, a duck shooting mini game might give Adeline a better critical hit chance. A sword fight mini game might give Adeline bonus stats when she use a knife.

Poll and random stuff!
Last time's winner for what makes a great lunch is pan fried crispy skin salmon! If you like to have fun and do some cooking, here is a easy guide for making your own crispy skin salmon! Hot (non-stick) pan, dry salmon with paper towel, and even cut will ensure your success! =D


This week's poll!
If you are a hitman, how would you approach your target and finish the job?
1) Hide in the shadow and kill my target, and only my target!
2) LEEROY JENKINS! Go in all guns blazing!
3) Sneak up on people and choke everyone out, one by one, and put all of their bodies in a big pile!
4) Be polite, be efficient, one shot, one kill!
5) Hitman!? I will never be a hitman! I will never hurt a soul!!!

Where is the update!?

Oops...there is no update this week...maybe it's because I have to work more often than usual...maybe it's because summer is a good time for vacation...or maybe it's because...hmmm...Steam summer sale...and Don't Starve. XD

Normal schedule should be resume next week!

Thursday Randomness!

So there some good news and bad news. Since I am the bad news first kind of gal (and I am writing this :P), here is the bad news:

I messed up my sleeping schedule last weekend, so for the last 4 or 5 days, I was incredibly tired all day long. In the morning when I was suppose to be working and coding, I was too sleepy to be productive, but at night, my stupid biological clock stopped me from sleeping and recharge. What I am saying is that...I only wrote 200 words in the last 4 days and only did some light coding......(No stop! Please don't throw eggs at me!)

On the hand, there is some good news:

With help, I managed to finish up all the pictures I needed for an event! And who knows, I might actually finish up a lot more during the weekend. Also, I did a lot of quest planning, now my idea note pat is getting thicker and thicker (so does my to do list >.>). Other than that, all the games I hope to buy and play during  the steam summer sale are still around the 30 dollars range. Unless you guys want to donate to the anti-Alako-working-on-RAGS fund, I guess I won't be playing any of them any time soon. XD

Do I look like a zombie to you?
P.S. What do you prefer for lunch? (vote on the right)
1) Bean burrito with melted cheese and red sauce, with extra sour cream and guacamole
2) Chicken, Spanish rice burrito in garlic yogurt sauce, and tomatillo sauce
3) Pan fried crispy skin salmon with honey mustard sauce and tartar sauce
4) Natural-cut fries with melted cheese topped with rich and meaty chili

Season 2 Week 2 Update

Everything is done and the new update should be ready in a week! =D Naaa...that's just a lie. =P So far, most of the quests has been planned:

3 new quests around the Central and the Slum,
4 quests in a new area,
and 1 big main quest

Other than planning, my week is consumed by find background pictures that I like (or procrastinating) and beta testing Tales of the Drunken Cowboy. Mdqp's new version uses an updated beta RAGS which is not compatible with the old 2.4.0.0 RAGS. As a result, unless I force everyone to update to a new beta RAGS, I have to stop all my development so that it rags won't mess up my game. So.........let's all blame mdqp for the delay! XD

My plan is to finish up 1 quest per week, which means.....it will take me around 2-3 months to finish the new update. Once that's done, the game will be 60%-70% finished! =D

New reception area for the police station. I need to add this because of.....reasons!
