. Glad to see that this finally got funded, Dropsy was the reason I finally bought an account on SA. Good luck, fellow Central Florida goonsir, looking forward to updates!

I'm really excited for this game, and I'm thrilled you got picked up by a publisher and met all your stretch goals. I figured I'd say this on the forum. You might know me as the guy who did some watercolor Dropsy fanart the other day.

I dig the poo poo out of EVO records and I dig the poo poo out of Dropsy. I'm going to try and force you to draw him on my water bottle when I get there, just a heads up.

Still haven't thought of a dreamworld set-piece and a character for the game. How soon do you need them?

Yes! I'll be putting a website up soon for slacker backers.

It's a little trek to atlantis. Not sure what it'll be called yet. Probably something like Dropsy: The Coloring Book.

Some signs/pamphlets have a fake language thing, but yeah, no text in the game whatsoever. Not even in the menus, only icons. But you're right, he can't read very well.

Looks good! The inventory not opening instantly might get frustrating, though. Will there be an option for that?

Megazver posted:Looks good! I was already thinking about making it a bit shorter, but you may be right. There isn't as much inventory usage in Dropsy as there is in other adventure games, so ultimately we're going to have to see how it feels once the game is playable.

Everything looks so great. The music you let us hear really stood out to me especially while on the map.

Wittgenstein posted:Everything looks so great. The music you let us hear really stood out to me especially while on the map. Thanks man. That was an early sketch of Chris's. We're calling that particular bit the 'route theme', and you'll hear it on in-between routes and in the worldmap. There are variations of it that play depending on where you are. For example: the desert one sounds spaghetti western-y, etc etc. Can't wait to hear his final recordings. He's going into the studio with a 6 piece ensemble on March 22 and 23 to record most of the music.

That dialogue system would be great at showing how Dropsy would have trouble interpreting some terms and phrases. He'd know what the individual words mean at best. (Adjective: dripping blood) (Noun: fire and devil) (Punctuation: !) = Bloody hell! (Adjective: face with halo over it) (Noun: turd) (Punctuation: !) = Holy crap!

More screenshots:  BiggerJ posted:That dialogue system would be great at showing how Dropsy would have trouble interpreting some terms and phrases. He'd know what the individual words mean at best. As fun as that would be, we're going to avoid colloquialisms/idioms. Interpreting the icons will be hard enough as it is, don't wanna throw any lanuage-specific phrases in the mix to make it even more difficult. :P

It involves goon pop-up ads: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T67HmBbIPRs Get it + the OST here: http://jay-tholen.itch.io/hypnospace-enforcer
