Nanotale - Typing Chronicles News

Hi Fox Riders,

I am afraid that today's update won't be as sexy as the last ones, as we don't have a lot of visuals for you. Last week we mostly focused on three things:

• Coding
  
• Bug Fixing
  
• Implementing the script (story, dialogs, quests,...) in order to test it this week.
  

So as said, the next step is to test the game, to make sure that the English version is perfect before sending it for translation. I still think we were crazy to localize the early access in all these languages ːepisweatː but the community really deserves it.



Also, our author picked some names from your suggestions for the lore. So, here come the Tamarai and the Munsain Bells (that were called Karaka Bells until someone from the community told us that it was an existing plant ːepifearː)





In the coming weeks I will try to take time to do a short video or to stream the Sunken Caves to show you a bit more of it.

Thank you for reading.

Cheers,
VirginRedemption

Hi Fox Riders,

It's confinement week 3, here in Belgium, and our team is approaching the deadline for the next big update. Below, a brand new screenshot from the Sunken Caves, showing you the almost final look of the biome.



We are currently finalizing the decor and the story script. Then, we'll try the full script in game in English before sending it for localization. After it's translated, we'll need to invest a little bit more time to test it in the 10 other languages.

As usual, we'll face challenges with languages that doesn't use the Roman alphabet, such as Korean, Chinese, Japanese and Russian, so it would be great if you could help us with that.


[h2]We are on BiliBili[/h2]

Thanks to "打上黑火药" who helped us a lot, we created a BiliBili account. Now, all our Fox Riders from China will also be able to enjoy the videos we post on Steam.

We already uploaded on the channel, the videos from the last posts.

Don't hesitate to follow us: https://space.bilibili.com/526333457



Here's also another element from the lore to name, if you feel inspired.



To finish, I'd like to share that concept art from the Sunken Caves conveying a sense of danger.



That's it for today. Thank you Fox Riders for the support.

Hi Fox Riders,

First of all, I'd like to say Happy Birthday to our first typing game, Epistory! Four years ago, we pushed the release button not knowing if we'd find an audience for it. 4698 reviews later, the game is still overwhelmingly positive on Steam. So, thank you for the support.

If you are a new Fox Rider and never played Epistory, I suggest you to give it a try. There is also a free demo on Steam.

[h2]NOW ABOUT NANOTALE[/h2]

Last week was "complicated" with the confinement and everything, but we managed to work on Nanotale. I can't show you all the work done because it's mostly BIG SPOILERS and I don't want to spoil too much.

Below, you'll see how we created one of the battlegrounds from the Sunken Caves.

And, here's a concept art of a specific element of lore we'd like to have in the cave.




[h3]Talking about lore, WE NEED YOU HELP to name the two following plants.[/h3]
The author suggested names inspired by the four elements (fire, water, stone, air), gemstones and ore.





To finish, we were invited to talk about Nanotale during Houdini Hive. The video is not on youtube yet but you can already watch it on Twitch.

Thank you for reading! Take care!

Hey Fox Riders,

Here's a video that we just had the time to do before confinement. It's about a very important aspect of Nanotale which is the lore and encyclopedia.

Thanks for watching!

Hi Fox Riders,

Last week we continued to work on the caves. With the confinement and everything the deadline for the next biome seems to approach faster than expected ːepisweatː

Here a video teaser showing you a bit more of the Sunken Caves.

Meanwhile, a strange "battle" occured on our Discord server between Guillaume, our QA tester and Ruben, one of our devs. Apprently, being stuck at home increased their creativity.











That's it for last week. Thank you for reading.

Cheers,
