While working on Yurivania 3 I made a git commit nearly every day. πŸ°πŸŒ›
Here are a few highlights:


- Dec.  9 2021 - Initial Commit
- Jan. 17 2022 - Finished Importing Existing Maps

This is misleading, though, because while they were all imported at this time there were many things that still needed tweaking.

- Jan. 26 2022 - Began Designing New Maps
- Feb.  1 2022 - Finished Most of the Menu assets
- Apr. 13 2022 - Finished First Pass Art of Dateable Characters
- Apr. 16 2022 - Began Implementing First Minigame
- Jul.  3 2022 - Set Up the Itch Page
- Jul. 11 2022 - Finished Devising Crafting Recipes
- Jul. 21 2022 - Finished Implementing Run & Jump Mechanical Revisions
- Sep.  5 2022 - At this point I had a strong idea of what the progression through the game would look like.
- Sep.  6 2022 - At this point I had a solid base on which to implement the game.
- Oct.  8 2022 - Began Implementing the Main Progression
- Oct. 14 2022 - Finished First Pass at the Opening Cinematic
- Dec. 19 2022 - Begin Testing with Alpha Players
- Jan   1 2023 - Finished Implementing First Pass at Crafting Minigame

This process took a lot longer than the other minigames because of the elaborate UI and many, many recipes.

- Jan. 17 2023 - Began Implementing Mirna's Aventure

AKA my own personal purgatory, haha

- Mar. 16 2023 - Implemented Eclipse Cutscene

I was really proud of how cool this looked and am sad that the final game shipped with this broken. 😭

- May  18 2023 - Began Implementing Seating Minigame

This was the last mechanic to be implemented.

- Aug.  7-17 2023 - Still Struggling with Conversation During Mirna's Adventure
- Nov. 18 2023 - Began Implementing Bonus Dungeon
- Nov. 20 2023 - Began Implementing Closing Cinematic Sequences
- Nov. 29 2023 - Began Testing with Beta Players
- Dec.  1-8 2023 - Bug fixing, UI improvements, and script updates.

Beta testers found many bugs, made suggestions for many improvements in wording, and uncovered many rough areas in the UI.

- Dec. 10 2023 - RELEASED 1.0!

This version went live during the jam. There were still major bugs but the game was playable and beatable.

- Dec. 12 2023 - Released 1.2
    - All but one major bugs fixed.
    - Removed most of the Debug features I'd built in.
    - Also removed most comments, as in GB Studio 2 those bloat the ROM.
- Dec. 13 2023 - Released 1.3
    - Many more bug fixes and script revisions.
- Dec. 20 2023 - Removed a minor feature to do with flight mechanics as I was unable to solve a critical bug.

This was especially time consuming.

- Dec. 24 2023 - Released 1.4
    - Many more fixes and improvements of all sorts.
    - This is likely the last release of Yurivania 3.
