This week, more from dsp3000 on Academy : Part 3…<\/p>\n

It’s November already and this time last year I was busy completing ‘Tara: Part Three’. I was also in the early planning stages of ‘The Academy’ series of games.\u00a0<\/em>I’m now over halfway through my current five game Academy project and, coincidentally, I have already started planning what I’m going to do next.<\/em>
\nI have a few ideas that I’m developing, some more likely to happen than others.\u00a0<\/em>While I do like reading the blog for critique and for inspiration; I can’t promise to incorporate everything into my games. But keep all the feedback and ideas coming and you just might get what you ask for.<\/em><\/p>\n

In case anybody thinks that planning new games before I’ve finished my current ones is a bad thing… Don’t worry; I am still fully committed\u00a0to completing the Academy games and making them as great as I know they can be.\u00a0<\/em>Fitting such a labour intensive project into my spare time isn’t easy and sometimes the game format can be limiting and frustrating especially in terms of telling a story. Despite this I am still enjoying working on it when I can.<\/em><\/p>\n

Last week’s update was actually written a few weeks ago, so this week I can report that I am actually closer to completing ‘The Academy: Part Three than you might have expected. The image count as of today has leapt up to 1258 and I have just two major scenes to complete plus a few linking sequences and a few other images.<\/em><\/p>\n

As such I am fairly confident that with another two weeks work I will have it completed. Add another week for testing and it’s very likely that this game will be ready to be released at the end of November.<\/em><\/p>\n

I don’t want to give away any of the plot, so please don’t ask. That said, here are a few more images to give you a taste of what to expect.”<\/em><\/p>\n
