📢 Notice - As my health has failed to improve and I missed last week's update, I am announcing that weekend updates will be put on pause. It's not a complete hiatus, but I am not able to keep up with my update pace in my current state. I hope to have something exciting to show when updates resume.

Hello all! No update this week unfortunately. My health hasn't been the best for some time, and I am unable to make as much progress as I would like. If things continue, I may go on hiatus. I will announce it if it comes down to it. Hopefully I will be better with a bit more time to rest.

Weekend Update 🔥 Text only this week, as I work on fixing a few bugs that have shown up seemingly spontaneously. The Antagonist Art Poll has also ended! Thank you to everyone who voted :)! 🤖 was the winner, so look forward to the reveal coming soon! #BOUNDLESSUT #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

🗃 New Poll! 🆕 - Vote for which antagonist gets in-game art next! forms.gle/gAkEfGYnLpnE... #BOUNDLESSUT #indiegame #gamedev

Weekend Update 🃏 - Text only this week. Working on the code to support the card system. Lots of texture loading, so I've been doing some research into how Godot handles resources and caching. Hopefully I won't blow anyone's computer up but also keep it a smooth experience. #indiegame #indiedev

Weekend Update 📢 Menu / Card System Updates - I'm working on updating the menu UI from its older design, working to make it match the planned UI aesthetic. The supporting data system for cards is also being worked on. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #godot #godotengine #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 🎴 - Cards! Cards are how you'll record information about the various creatures that exist in the Lorian plane. Talk to people and analyze foes. If you gather them all, something good might happen! More info on tumblr! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #godot #godotengine #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 📢 Lots of background development! Mini bubbles and metals have been updated (White BG = Old). A custom alphabet and writing system have also been developed! Animations viewable on tumblr. #indiegame #indiedev #godot #godotengine #gamedev #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 🎭 Character Redesigns! The update I was aiming for was a bit too ambitious for this week, but progress is being made! For the time being, here's a sneak peek at what's next. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #godot #godotengine #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 📢 Brief update as I deal with a bout of poor health. A lot got done, but not a lot to showcase just yet! I'm working on having something better for next week so stay tuned! #indiegame #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev #godot #godotengine #BOUNDLESSUT

Thanks for the question! I guess you could say so! Super Paper Roblox would count, since I was a dev, and I made a few tiny games during my school years as well. Continue→ marshmallow-qa.com/messages/4d1...

A lot about Page's history and development! www.tumblr.com/boundless-ut... #indiegame #characterdesign #BOUNDLESSUT

A bit about Candlevera's history and development! www.tumblr.com/boundless-ut... #characterdevelopment #oc #indiegame

Thanks for the question! Boundless as a concept has been in development for over a decade at this point, so a lot of changes have occurred between then and now. The current iteration of Boundless, has only been in development for a year and a half. Continue→ marshmallow-qa.com/messages/833...

Small update this week as I spent some time making art over on @uglytheater.bsky.social ! I started development for some special speech bubbles for important characters. Here's a look at how Candlevera's is progressing! #indiegame #gamedev #godotengine #godot #indiegames #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 📢 Text only this week! I've been working on some personal art projects, so time has been split. This week was focused on producing SFX for character voices! Next week I'll be working on refactoring some code so there may be another text only update to follow. #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 📢 Short on time this week. Lots of organizing happening in the background. Misc. work was completed this week, introducing mini bubbles and supporting systems for animations. #gamedev #indiegame #BOUNDLESSUT #godot #godotengine

Weekend Update 💥 Doing some real damage! Attacking enemies is here! Time your hits well to do some extra damage! If you strike well enough, you may even land a critical hit! #Indiegame #indiegames #indiedev #godotengine #godot #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 💥 Go Get 'Em! This week I reintroduced the patching agent to the attack menu and the targeting system and added a tracking camera feature. Attacks also respect your energy now, so you can't perform moves you can't afford. #indiegame #indiedev #godot #godotengine #gamedev #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 💥 Top Bar UI! This week, I worked on the UI elements and supporting systems for the top bar UI. You'll find useful information there such as you and your partner's health, energy, and special meter. #indiegame #godotengine #godot #indiedev #gamedevelopment #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 💥 UI and Systems Update! I had a vision for a new UI and rebuilt the choice selection system from the ground up to support it. I've also introduced entity labels. You'll see health bars on beings you've identified! #GodotEngine #Godot #IndieGame #IndieDev #GameDev #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 💥 More UI Work. Finished up some of the missing run meter UI elements. I'm also starting work on the attack system! #GodotEngine #Godot #IndieGame #IndieDev #BOUNDLESSUT

The raffle is now closed! Thank you to those who made submissions. Look forward to the results next month! Thank you to everyone for your continued support! ⭐

Weekend Update 💥 - Continuing work on Battle UI! I took some time to recover assets I'd lost and made a few updates to existing UI elements. Also a look at the run mechanic with SFX this time! #godotengine #godot #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #BOUNDLESSUT

Don't forget! Boundless's milestone celebration art raffle closes January 18th! If you're interested, make sure to get your submissions in before then!

Weekend Update 💥 Slow progress this week again as I readjust to a normal schedule. Computer crashed due to a delayed windows update so I lost some layered UI files. I'll be working on remaking those and continuing with battle system updates! #godot #godotengine #indiedev #indiegame #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 💥 Battle System Progress! Didn't have as much time to work this week due to the holidays, but I've started work on the attack system + UI updates this week! #godotengine #godot #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #RPG #BOUNDLESSUT

Happy New Year! 🎊 To celebrate the incredible growth of the Boundless Bluesky page, I've decided to hold a small art raffle. Enter for a chance to get your character drawn as a Dotty! For more details, see the submission form: forms.gle/F2MBd38rDCLQ... Thank you to everyone for your support!

Weekend Update! Battle system progress! Tactics like guarding and running are currently a WIP, see them in action! #godot #godotengine #rpg #indiegame #indiedev #sundaysnapshot #BOUNDLESSUT

Weekend Update 💥 Good progress made on the battle system. Unfortunately, I'm in the middle of linking the updated player animation system to it which has broken the tester battle scene temporarily, so no visuals this week. Player turns as well as defending and running away are now working though!

Weekend Update 📅 - Text only update this week. I'm needing to adjust to a different workstation and workflow so progress is a bit slow. Currently working on updating the code for the battle system, focusing on guarding and running mechanics. Hope to have something visual to show next week!

Weekend Update 💥 - Working on the battle system still. Pathing is currently a WIP along with a new menu process. Apologies for the low FPS this time, as I'm needing to work from an outdated machine for the time. #godot #godotengine #indiegame #indiedev #solodev #BOUNDLESSUT #sundaysnapshot

Weekend Update 📅 - Welcome again to everyone who's followed recently! Unfortunately, I've been a bit busy this week, so it's a text only update this time. As a reminder, there's a new carrd for Boundless! https://buff.ly/3CHfpkP Check it out for links to the devlog and Q&A

Weekend Update 💥 Battle UI Upgrades! Taking a break from character setup, I spent some time updating the battle UI. New graphics, animations, and a player/partner swap system have been developed! Check it out! #indiegame #indiedev #godotengine #godot #RPG #BOUNDLESSUT

Hey Bluesky! Don't forget to check out the dev blog over on tumblr to catch up on some updates you might have missed! I'm still getting my bearings with BlueSky, but you should see more updates like this going forward! #Godotengine #gamedev #indiegame #RPG #solodev #BOUNDLESSUT
