Elegian Devlog Episode 3 - Production Begins & Making Progress
Channel: Brett Makes Games
Date: 2021-10-14

With the initial prototype complete with working map loading and combat, as well as the story and characters fleshed out, I'm ready to commit to this project! Here's my progress from over the last few days of working on this retro, turn-based RPG that I'm calling Elegian.

In the time since I last shared my progress, I've replaced all of the copyrighted assets from Dragon Quest, introduced leveling for the main character, and created the first field map in the game.

It's starting to feel like it's coming together and the glimmers of the game I intend to make are starting to shine through the rudimentary prototype I started with. I'm so excited to keep making progress and work on the project.
