This week's spoiler is... some small progress on dungeon stuff. 2020-03-28 dungeon doors progress.png I added some shading, softened the outline, made minor additions/adjustments. I wasn't sure what direction to go in with making the door look less plain, so I wasted some time giving it a sort of st...

I think it's fine posting someone else's graphics to spice up his posts a bit / help convey an idea since I wouldn't use any of these graphics "as is", anyway. Most of the graphics posted have been fairly generic, anyway, not like "This is a character design someone else made, you should copy it". I...

Well, Abi has moved on and is no longer part of the Re:Spite Team. It's been a sad time for this project's development, but we haven't given up. Abi has allowed his current build of the game to continue running, so players can still experience the existing world of Re:Spite. A potential new program...

About a month late, but here we go. Both entries were good and qualified for an in-game pixel painting and prize. 2020-03-21_fan-art-summary.png The game's sorta in a coma at the moment, so let's just say I.O.U. one (1) prize when things pick up again. ty 4 participating, it was fun to recreate the ...

This week's spoiler is a bit more on track. New in-game paintings! 2020-03-21_fan-art-summary.png They're based on the fan art submissions from last month. Here's a zoomed in version just because. 2020-03-21_fan-art-paintings zoomed in.png Anyway, for the most part, I'm still working on organizing R...

Well, it took a while, but I finally finishing writing a Re:Spite project proposal. It barely scratches the surface of what Re:Spite may one day become, but it should give a programmer a decent enough idea to know what they're getting themselves into if they decide to work with me. https://re-spite....

I definitely do want to continue the project, no soul searching needed. I guess the main reason I'd want a break is just because I'm a bit bummed out and would like to have fun rather than immediately deal with the dull process of scouting a competent programmer, building trust with a complete stran...

I'm a bit conflicted and still not quite sure what the best approach would be, so your feedback is appreciated. After that period of time last year where I couldn't work on the game, it felt really good to eventually be able to work on it again. I'd get pretty excited proposing and discussing new fe...

I was also thinking it'd suck to have a double hiatus, as you've pointed out, but to be fair, Abi turned out to be unexpectedly busy all year. There was a period of time last year where I had to put all my free time into working on my house so I could live in it before having to move from my apartme...

No weekly spoiler this time, sadly; I'm contemplating what to do about the game. If I'm able to find a new programmer to partner up with, they'll have to recode the game from scratch, so they'll need to be capable of it, obviously. I'm still motivated to work on the game, though I wouldn't mind a li...

I'll send you a private message about getting your stuff back.

Indeed, it is as Psyngelic says. Let me know what your character's name is and I'll be able to help you level up and get your items back. We'll have to actually meet up together in-game for me to do this, though. Or if you didn't have much progress yet, you could just start fresh. Sorry for the inco...

Joke entries are more than welcome! Well, in light of Abi's recent announcement, I can no longer guarantee that the contest entries will actually make it into the game, but I'll still try to get them added if I can find out how to. The contest is still open and in-game prizes are still available, fo...

Nicely done, let's hope we see more than just one entry! )-:

This week's spoiler is... more tiling! 2020-02-08 stone temple inside.jpg I was feeling a bit too aimless before, so I made this concept art. Now I seem to be getting somewhere! 2020-02-15 new tiles in progress.png With some new wall tiles and a door in progress, I'll probably be able to adjust the ...

This week's spoiler is... a sad attempt at new tiles! 2020-02-08 tiles1.png The tiles still need to be refined more, of course. I'm just trying to find a pattern that looks right first. I think I'm getting a little closer to that goal, but it's a bit of a struggle. I'm avoiding looking at other game...

In the latest Weekly Spoiler post, I gave a sneak peek at some new pixelated paintings that will be used to decorate the game's world. It turned out to be a pretty fun change of pace for me, so I thought I'd share the fun with everyone else. Introducing Re:Spite's first art contest! It's fairly sim...

This week's spoiler is... new paintings/decorations in-game!
I was thinking we could use more framed pictures/paintings in the game besides the 'world map' painting littered about the buildings of the island. Just wanted to spruce up the ol' world a little bit.

ogodlol, those poor skallugs. The pallette swap monsters look fun and fruity. I'm trying my darndest to resist having pallette swaps or slightly modified monsters, though. It always feels cheap when I see it in other games, so I'm hoping to just keep making new monsters from scratch instead. Customi...

Well, it's a new year, and it has been for a few weeks. Our homepage looked like it could use a new post for 2020, so here we are! I don't have anything special to announce at this time, I'm basically just letting everyone out there know we're still alive and working on the game when we can. Once a...
