June 2025 - 2 years in! 500 wishlist milestone! New dungeon complete, timeline a

[p]Happy summer! This month marks 2 years since I officially announced Realms & Ruins: Abencor. I've been staying busy post DCjam2025. After the jam, R&R reached over 500 wishlists and still growing! This is awesome and I never thought it this many people would be interested in my little dungeon crawler. I've been working hard on finishing up the game, see below for the details of the last month or so:[/p]
  • [p]Frost keep and maps leading to it have been connected, including map states related to the quest[/p]
  • [p]Frost Keep questline has been scripted and completed[/p]
  • [p]Completed the Frost Keep dungeon[/p]
  • [p]9 new monsters and NPC's added[/p]
  • [p]Various objects and weather effects have been created related to the Frost Keep[/p]
  • [p]Fixed an issue with the portal stone not accounting for world states[/p]
  • [p]Fixed an issue with respawning not accounting for world states[/p]
  • [p]Updated development documentation[/p]
[p][/p][p][/p][p]While a short list, there's a lot of content here and I'm happy with how the Frost Keep dungeon and related Quest has turned out.

Here's the current state of Realms & Ruins: Abencor:[/p]
  • [p]Over 100 maps including 5 cities, overland areas & 13 dungeons[/p]
  • [p]200+ NPC's & monster [/p]
  • [p]100+ items & treasures[/p]
[p]So I've filled out the core of the world with some optional dungeons and quests. So what's next? Primarily my goals in the coming months won't be anymore dungeons (for now). It will be adding some NPC dialogue, adding some smaller quests, adding more treasure and loot, completing unfinished creature/NPC animations, enhancing all of my weapon animations, adding final teleport stones/portals, adding the final skills to the game and then my final goal will be to do lots and lots of playtesting and balancing. My plan is to complete and have the game release before the holidays this year (TENTATIVE!). That's all for now.[/p][p]If you like what you see make sure to follow and wishlist, check me out on Bluesky and Itch and join the discord too!
