Dukeporne build 2.0 is Live!!

So what the heck is it? and what's the difference since the valentines update?? so, In the 1.8 and 2.0 builds this week the major changes have been:

pretty hefty CG and Sprite updates, many of the early Cgs have gotten a retouch, and our favorite Executioners got an entire sprite update, our boys Log and Freddy both got new expressions, poses, variants, all the good stuff, and they are now Party members! These two are at Duke's side for the majority of the new content, and when they aren't theyre having little adventures of their own (often just the next bed over heh) this means a ton of dialogue and banter that was an absolute joy to write

1.8 included new content from where we last left off at the end of the Beast Possessed soul fight up to the middle of the forbidden woods, but as some eagle eyed folks have noticed there were a LOT of unimplemented files in the game, I'd run into a coding struggle, but I'm proud to say we overcame it and now with the 2.0 build another massive chunk of very hot content has been added, finishing the forbidden woods, Mendick Charnel lane, and getting our into to Bygingirth, where things start to get WEIRD but IMO pretty damn hot. 

just how much content are we talking? well the game script basically doubled in size once again since the 1.5 build soooo I think there's a lot for y'all to enjoy.  best I can approximate, I think i added over a hundred new image assets for this build, and that's not counting the individual frames of the movies we added ;)

roadmap:

We probably won't be seeing the next build until mid march, where I think the goal is to finish the main arc of the games story! this has been a huge and amazing project, but I know there's a lot of folks who've been waiting for a special lad to appear in the story and I can't wait to bring him into the fold. 

following that, and aside from some patches as needed, the next main step I'm considering is making the DLC playable. adding gamified elements to face some of the ultimate challenges in the DLC like a certain horseman is something i'm considering as a capstone to this project.

What you can do:

like, review, share the game! ngl I have been working day and night on this for over a week straight, and that's no joke, I... when did I last sleep?

this project has been absolutely addictive to work on,  but that doesnt mean it hasn't had it's difficulties or taken a toll on me haha. Your comments and reviews seriously inspire me and give me so much fuel to keep creating. so if you're feeling really generous throw me a tip <3 and if you can't, just posting and letting me know what your favorite thing was, or something you liked, what you hope to see from this or other projects, it means everything to me.

known issues:

There is a scripting error currently in the game buttttt it will have to wait for another day. currently there's a continuity error if you chose not to fight the Darkbeast and happened to be wearing the choir garb. But I feel like its probably pretty rare that someone would skip that fight heh ;)
