PP Puncher
Beta 3.0.0 - The End
I tried making this game fun, but I couldn't. It's best to let the project die rather than wasting more time on it.
Different experiments were done, and sadly none of them resulted in fun. I guess it was my mistake for making a turn-base RPG, a genre I don't even enjoy playing.
At the very least, I removed parts of the game that were against my philosophy.
I had fun making up a game engine from scratch. Custom controls, volume options, even basic things such as cursors and UI. It was a cool project.
The update is the last of my experiments. It is different from the game it used to be, and quite a mess, since not intended for actual use.
PP Puncher will be taken off steam in 90 days, if steam accepts my request to take the game down.
PP Punchers, thank you.
Maybe I'll come back with an actual project :)
