Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates, How are you doing? Really looking forward to hearing a positive response from you :) I hope you are!
"It was too easy for me. oh, no! "
Once again we would like to thank you for your words of support and the high marks you give for Pirates VR. We will try to justify them!
the high pace of our developers scares me (in a good way) They work hard. however, in most cases it is a routine and multitasking work every day, which consists of small details, but in the end it leads to more. Most of this work goes unnoticed by us (players) and we will only be able to experience it when we get access to the game. well, we will surely wait?
By the way, have you seen the new Pirates VR page design yet? she seems to have had a bit of a makeover ;) have a look:
You may learn something important very soon, but don't take these words too seriously, it's just a thought in head...
Best Wishes, Split Light Studio
No, did you hear that?! 🦜
Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates, I hope you're feeling great today
Sometimes situations arise where you need to try again. But, sometimes you need to rethink your approach and try to find a solution in a different way. Perhaps this is the case?
Sometimes you may hear barbed phrases or even outright ridicule from this feathered... He's always there, wherever you are. However, don't be angry with him :) In fact, he often shows you the way. He is your coordinator and your compass.
so our developers have made significant progress and some important tasks have been successfully completed: + most of the small bugs have been fixed + corrections and improvement of level design + optimization + some game mechanics + the final scene has been completed + subtitles + voice acting
As you can see, we are far advanced, but right now our development team is working on: - active testing phase of the current version of the game, - improving game components, - compatibility with popular models of VR headsets, so that they work correctly.
thanks for taking a few minutes today :) it's a pleasure for us. and thanks again for your reactions and attention!
Treasure? The best thing that can happen to a pirate 💰
Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates,
It's been a long time. It's been a whole week, but it went by pretty fast. I hope you are doing great ;)
Today I want to show you something:
I think today is his day ;) The nicest thing a pirate can be haha
On your way will meet not only obstacles and dangers, but also positive moments. You must collect food, coins, jewels, other items. What for? You'll find out sometime ;) A pirate has a liking for the ringing of coins, but most often, you will find small bags with coins. but, sometimes you will find similar chests. But, it will be too naive to think that they will be in an accessible place. It's a challenge, but the challenge with the reward ;)
By the way, as promised, the answer to the previous question. Stones? That's not a problem anymore. But, the problem is to find the necessary tool ^^
also, We are now actively working in several areas at once, and our team is very efficient. However, it's almost always a lot of different details about which you can't tell much (oh these developers' everyday life), but among other things, take a look at this new logo:
I'm off to gather new information for you next week. See you!
So, you'll have the opportunity to... no. Not like that. You will have to learn the skill of swimming, you will do it while still in the “Island” location, but right now you have the opportunity to see what a flooded cave looks like.
By the way, why is it flooded? Hmm, you will have to find out the mysteries.
Overcoming the route, searching for items - you're a pirate! You know what water is.
there are some in-betweens in our work goals, but not something to emphasize at this point in our meeting with you. I hope to be able to show and share something with you very soon .... we'll see.
Hmmm, for some reason I can't seem to jump on these rocks.....
Last time the question was asked with a picture of a pickaxe. you can destroy obstacles with it (due to its hardness). It can also be used to get something more valuable. what is it? Let me give you a more detailed answer next time ;)
It wasn't safe, but if the situation called for it..... There may have been other solutions to the problem, but this is for you to find out when playing Pirates VR: Jolly Roger.
at least he's still alive. Ok. it's been a great week and I hope you're feeling well in the middle of fall :)
The work doesn't stand still, our development team works tirelessly. We have received a lot of feedback from players who played the demo version earlier, and now we are working hard and in-depth on testing the next locations.
In fact, I would like to thank you once again for your support for Pirates VR: Jolly Roger, it's invigorating.
we're still performing our current tasks: - Game mechanics are being finalized/improved - Subtitle system + voiceover - some level upgrades - active testing
Also, there's an active discussion going on right now about something important. But let's hold off on that ;)
By the way, does anyone have any thoughts on how I can use this?
Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates, How are you doing? I hope your mood is the best :)
It seems it's time to show you something new to look forward to in Pirates VR: Jolly Roger
So, this time I want to move away from the “Island” location a bit and show you another location called “Cave”. A little variety wouldn't hurt, would it? Mysterious and creepy, it's worth paying attention here. be attentive. including to the sounds (sometimes they can tell you a lot or give some clues). Please don't look down for very long, otherwise you may recognize something (or someone) ...
Sometimes it's very helpful to look around you. For example, is there nothing threatening your life? Hmm. No, no...I'm not implying anything *wink*
Ok. a few snapshots for a leisurely examination:
In the works: - Game mechanics are being finalized/improved - Subtitle system + voiceover - some level upgrades - active testing
That's probably the most important thing I want to share today. I wish you a great week and look forward to sharing more with you ;)
It's been a week since we last met and it's good to be in touch with you again. There's a lot to discuss, so I'd like to go over it in order.
it's been a rough week, but it's been productive
So, uh. It's “The Island” time again and once again we have an uncomfortable route to tackle. What's the best way to do that? Not another word. Okey....
As you may recall, on “The Island” you are accompanied by a parrot. He's a very bad spy, a very bad spy. But, his job is to coordinate you, to guide you to the next point. This is your guide. Your flying map. However, you can try to capture him. Will it work?
Sly as Flint's parrot! 🦜
Shall we get to the news?
First of all, I would like to share some important news with you. Pirates VR: Jolly Roger now has a publisher, and it is VRKiwi. We wish each other success and hope that this cooperation will be as fruitful as possible ;)
This is not the parrot from our game, however this bird is good too ;)
Speaking about what the team is working on now, they have not only succeeded in their goals, but also significantly expanded the scope of work:
- Improvements and refinement of core gameplay mechanics. - Integration and refinement of voice acting and subtitle system. - Work on the final scene, as well as animations. - Refinement and improvement of levels. - Active testing of game builds and bug fixes based on the results.
Another busy week is behind us. How are you feeling? I hope you are not too tired after the work week and are feeling well.
Remember that sometimes it is good for you to rest. And I hope that when Pirates VR: Jolly Roger is released, it will serve as an opportunity for you to distract yourself and have fun :)
Speaking of which: Advancing further on the initial location “Island”, we can meet not standard situations, which at first glance are random, but maybe randomness is not random? Hmm
What if... Oh, no! Although, uh
A few pics from the scene (haha):
Good thing no one was downstairs. He would've been in trouble. Wouldn't he? ;)
The work doesn't stand still, our team works hard, but it takes time and patience. By the way, a few words about what they are working on now: - in fact, we're well on our way to writing dialog. - In addition, some of the final locations are in the active stages of completion. Oh, that's promising. - but we're not forgetting the achievements.
there has been significant progress in all three areas. Perhaps next week I'll ask them for something interesting for you from what is currently simmering on. we'll see =)
also we will probably announce some very important step for us very soon.
Devlog #7 Nothing personal, man. It's just money 💰
Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates,
Work is boiling, our development team does not stand still. However, it's time to tell you about the new episode that will be waiting for you in Pirates VR: Jolly Roger. And I am truly excited about this opportunity.
On your way you will encounter gold and jewels. Sometimes they are carefully hidden, sometimes they are in dangerous or hard to reach places. and sometimes all together.
Nothing personal, man. It's just money 💰
You may pass it by, however it is not the Pirate's way ;)
Last week, we agreed with you that we would give you a sneak peek at the next location. So let me show you this.
This time, to keep the intrigue and your interest, I will not talk about how you will get this crystal. However, rest assured that you will take it triumphantly as a trophy!
We're still working on: 1. Dialogues 2. Achievements 3. Final locations
But, everything is under the control of our sensitive development team. let's believe in them and wish them luck :)
