Still working on V3.
This year has been a maelstrom of things happening to me personally, some of which have changed my life considerably. Regardless, they have not seriously hampered the development of the game. I even finished my first D&D campaign I DMed for 2+ years for eight(!) people, that was fun.
The technical side of game development has been hindered by Adobe AIR support vanishing and overall it becoming more and more of a nuisance. Progress to the next update has been severely affected by this development, and some drastic measures have been taken to ensure V3 can actually be installed and run when it's released.
The development version of the Teraurge V3 currently runs on the Unity engine. I had been working semi-seriously on an Unity version of the game as precautionary thing along with the AIR version, but irreconcilable technical hurdles forced the issue and I had to take the plunge into the Unity for V3.
The switch has been a big effort but the new tools Unity and C# bring to the table have made the development far more enjoyable and efficient than what it was on the Flash Actionscript 3. Large sections of the game's code have been translated into the new engine, but various parts are still missing.
The news of an engine change may sound dire or irritating, but I already delayed the engine switch (probably) far too long and only did so when the issue was forced upon me. The engine change has brought new possibilities in the technical sense and made the development far less troublesome. I changed to Unity with great hesitation and dread, but I've come to realize that I should have made the jump to Unity in V2, or even earlier.
As is tradition I've created a new super pack of all the stream art for your convenience.
Honestly I'm surprised you made another blog update. That said it's good hear that the game is still being worked on.
ReplyDeleteI agree a lot of people change to Unity and fall in love with the engine becuase ones you learn it is easy, efficient and less stressfull thats why i want to learn how to use it, eventually as well as C# and C++
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update, IMO you should do a monthly update soo people can keep faith that you are still working on it. Doesnt even have to go in detail like the earlier ones, a simple "hey, still alive, working on making unity work, bye" will do XD
ReplyDeleteif you need any additional Unity devs.id love to help out with the game
ReplyDeleteConfirmed: Teraurge v3 will release alongside Half-life 3.

ReplyDeleteI've been following the development of this game for years and waiting for it to be released, and I'll keep waiting because it's certainly my favorite game of the genre.
ReplyDeleteMy best birthday present will be when this game comes out kkkkkk

by "genre" I mean games of the pornographic genre
Delete>Be a decent artist
ReplyDelete>Create a game in a fetish with next to zero creators
>Hold the game hostage for 2 years with empty promises and the occasional stream
>Laugh at the idiots who will still support you whilst you buy cocaine with their money because you dont have any competition
Seems good
Yikes, you seem like a nice guy with a decent job that doesn't face any life problems.
DeleteI mean i get it. We've only been waiting YEARS for V3 just to hear him say he's switching entire engines. This is incredibly frustrating and I don't blame anyone for being impatient. I'm just glad I didn't drop any money on this guy like I was planning too.
DeleteI'm very happy this project is still in development. Don't give up!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see your work)) I don't know if you will see my message, however, I really want to ask you for one favor. In TU v2.13 it is possible to copy text from the game. This is very helpful for people who do not fully know English. I would be very happy if you keep this opportunity.

DeleteThat is awesome to hear, man. Good on you for the finishing of the D&D campaign, too! Tying those up can be arduous as well. 8 is a crazy number, well done! Thanks for the update dude- Hope your year starts right!
ReplyDeleteIt's genuinely amusing how many suckers keep buying into the idea that there's progress being made.
