Hi all,

I wanted to give a brief update on the progress of the new version of Memories 3D since it's been a couple of months since the last one.

Sadly no screenshots in this update (that's not to say there isn't anything to show but it wouldn't be much fun if I showed you every map in these updates).

Anywho, here's a quick breakdown of what's been done so far:

• The map design for New Rochwood is pretty much complete (there's still some small changes that I want to make) - Because this map was essentially a port of a map from my RPG maker project of the same game, I was comfortable doing more with this map rather than newer maps that I only want to complete the barebones with.
• The cutscene that introduces New Rochwood is complete
• The New Rochwood Inn has been built and is fully functional
• The New Rochwood item shop, known as Treasures and Trinkets is built and functional
• I'm in the process of building the New Rochwood weapon and armour shop, called New Rochwood Armaments
• I've added some background music to the title screen along with a few sound effects for menu cursor movement, selection and cancelling

There still a LOT more to do before this is anywhere near ready for any kind of demo. 

Here's a rough list of things I want to get done before I publicly release a demo:

• Finish adding background music to all maps
• Adding all relevant sound effects to the game
• Finish fleshing out the items, weapons and armour in the database
• Add enemy encounters to specific places
• Finish building the shops in New Rochwood
• Populate the world with NPCs
• Create the first quest you complete in New Rochwood
• Create all the maps leading up to (and including) Greencoast Docks (a fishing village)
• Create the cutscenes that take place leading up to Greencoast Docks
• Flesh out the barebones maps a little (not to completion but enough that they don't look boring)

I'm considering (TBC) whether or not I might do some sort of pre-alpha demo available to those who request it through RPG Developer Bakin's Discord server to help find general bugs with the game (i.e. being able to move to places you're not supposed to etc.) as I'm creating it. Sort of like an early-early access. If I decide to go through with the idea, I'll post something in their discord and mine.

That's all for this progress update. I'm hoping that by the time the next progress update is released, I'll have finished with New Rochwood, the quests and be creating the maps leading up to Greencoast Docks.

Catch you later :)
